Ron Paul has certainly won my vote. Even if he ends up running 3rd party I probably will vote for him if the GOP candidate isn't someone with the principles of freedom and the constitution.

He has fought for personal liberties more than any other politician that has been seen in the last 40 years. Here is a paragraph from wikipedia

"Paul has been termed the "intellectual godfather" of the Tea Party movement.[5][6] He has become well known for his libertarian ideas for many political issues, often differing from both Republican and Democratic Party stances. "

For many "traditional" Republicans and Christians Paul really is a complicated candidate and hard to handle. The reason that this is the case is many Christians want the government to enforce our morals onto the rest of the population. Paul believes the government should have no role in marriage due to it being a church sanctioned union. That is why Ron Paul doesn't believe the government shouldn't ban homosexual marriage, but rather should get out of marriage altogether. He believes the churches have the responsiblity to not marry homosexuals and if homosexuals want a union they can have it, but it won't be called marriage.

Ron Paul is strong against abortion and believes we should have citizenship start at conception.

He is also for being able to drink raw milk and letting the free market figure out solutions vs. the government solutions.

I believe he is the best option we have and that our nation would thrive under his presidency and more importantly under the freedom that we will have underneath his administration.

Vote freedom every time
