Because Dondero aborted his destined-to-be-victorious congressional run. Had Eric have done anything other than shit out message board posts, visit prostitutes, and shower WAR with man love, we would soon be free from the Demon Paulistas.

Thewhole premise there is that becasue the founders put a comma after "United States" in Article II Section 1 Clause 5, then the following clause "at the time of adoption" etc. applies to both natural born or other citizens at the time of adoption. Clearly absurd and in contrast witht eh langauge rules, which indicate that a modifying clause set off by commas modifies the nearest reference point only unless it provides it's own reference point in the clause. That's junior-high grammar, folks. It also makes the ridiculous argument that the United States didn't before the Constitution. What was the Articles of Confederation, chipped beef on toast? johncjackson, some RP supporters are not runnign around claiming McCain is an alien, even if he continually acts like it. Some independent people are claiming that McCain is not a natural born citizen but instead a naturalized citizen instead. See http://muddythoughts.blogspot.com/2008/02/panmanchurian-candidate-mccain.html for the cited and fully cerdible argument, incliuding refuting the commonly-held misconceptions on the issue. Plus, Senator McCaskill has introduced clearly unconstitutional legislation to give McCain a fix out, and McCain himself has hired Ted Olson, former Solicitor General, to "research" McCain's legal status (and probably bury the truth)--which is telling because McCain ought to know his own citizenship status better than anyone else and hasn't released his brith certificate for public view.

Look at Shawn Hannity in Atlanta." We won't know who has the majority of covention delegates in Nevada, Hawaii, Alaska, Maine, Minnesota, Washington and North Dakota until those respective states hold their statewide GOP conventions but Ron Paul supporters were at least smart enough to run and get nominated as delegates in their respective caucuses while Mitt Romney's people went for the straw poll wins. We'll see how it turns out. Here’s a whole humble pie right in your face Mr. Rittberg: “Rudy Guliani for President, Southern have a natural inclination towards New Yorkers!

Your claims that Ron Paul would lose his Congressional seat, that he was behind in the polls, were shown to be just another figment of your vivid imagination.

Since Paul's supporters are not only the most enthusiastic, but also - with exception s - the best informed about this process, Paul has in fact won the majority of delegates in a number of states, including Alaska and Nevada. How do you feel about Alaska changing their uncritical support of the Iraq war to wars can only be fought based on a declaration of war by congress etc etc. Let you be reminded, Paul has NOT dropped out of the presidential race for one second. He has merely and logical scaled down the campaign after SUper Tuesday, as many primaries/caucuses were held and not need to have such a large team anymore. You should also be informed that there are various Ron Paul Republicans running for congress and at least one for the senate, of which 4 in Maryland for instance have already been successful. We know it must be a bitter pill for you to swallow...

The letters were sent out to every single registered Libertarian Party member in those Districts, from Ron Paul urging them to not cast their votes for the LP candidate, but rather for Bilbray and Rogan. Paul, as a Republican Caucus member is required to participate in fundraisig activities of the RNC. (Not that he's all too happy about it.) Why should it surprise you that you're now receiving such letters? jre, in 2000 Ron – my former boss who I was employed for at the time – signed two campaign letters for the RNC, to help Republican incumbents Brian Bilbray and James Rogan in Southern California.

As you see he is spending all his time in his district instead of being in all other states. Do realise that this is a very well organised attack by the corrupt GOP? They are scared!!! Yet another proof that we are winning and they are to go the way of dinosaurs. If not this election cycle then the next, but their days are numbered!
