   In point,3 did you mean ‘pursued’ instead of ‘peruse’?
   In any case;
   Ron Paul is the only candidate of either party drawing voters with a message instead of name recognition.
   Ron Paul is the only candidate motivating people in large numbers, who have never voted, to participate in the presidential election.
   Ron Paul is uniting large numbers of disaffected and bringing them to the Republican party.
   Compare every other candidate’s record with Ron Paul’s and see who stands out from the crowd of lobbyist appeasers and who stands up for the Constitution.
   Ron Paul answers the questions he is asked truthfully and does so in a reasoned, thoughtful, and articulate manner instead of saying nothing of substance or what he thinks his audience wants to hear.
   Ron Paul’s message has been consistent for over thirty years – all that has changed is that the people are finally ready to listen and respond.
   No campaign has such a fervent, hard working and dedicated following of volunteers that spans every sector of American society.

   Some nit-picking for you (sorry, I’m an editor) but in point 2, I don’t think you need ‘actually truly’ together – either one is stronger on its own. Oh, and you may wish to consider adding “and his record proves it”.

   Point 10 – either ‘in the hands of the people’ (I think it sounds stronger) or you need an apostrophe “peoples’ “.

   Point 7, how about “abolish unfair taxes that stifle economic prosperity”? (Just a thought).

   I think we can make the first point stronger too – working on it. Something about his record breaking haul nine days before Christmas, while Kerry didn’t raise that kind of money until after he had already won the Democratic nomination. Actually, I think you may wish to end the list on this note – nothing talks quite like money and if RP can do this while being snubbed in the MSM, what will it be like when he is (finally)being fairly covered?

   I think the list is coming along quite nicely. Well done.

   Why is it that everyone blames the meltdown on banks who loaned money to people that couldn’t afford to repay those loans? A-lot of those people probably had a decent job when they borrowed that money.
   Sure people made mistakes of judgment, and tried to get something for less.
   Inflation has risen dramatically and rate of pay has gone down, if your bills go up and average pay goes down doesn’t it make since you can’t pay your mortgage?
   I blame alot of this situation on the (great) Ronald Reagon for deregulation of the banks, and allowing the scabs to break the unions.
   People no longer could unite to negotiate their pay and insurance, then along came NAFTA (Thank you slick Willy) and allowed companies to go to other countries to take our good paying jobs overseas with no regulations, or to pack up and move to another state as a non union Company with less pay all the while being romanced by their new city with great tax breaks that would be payed by the tax payers.
   While these corporate millionaires split this landfall of money between deposits in foreign banks and padding the pockets of their favorite politicians to get what they need to keep that money coming their way.
   While the Fed just prints more money to add to the already over inflated dollar.
   If nothing else a union allowed blue collar people a way to have checks and balances against the corporations.
   Who soon went to bed with the politicians and banks and caused socialism for the rich and allowing for their golden parachutes while taking away from the blue collar middle class.
   I’m sure Ronald Reagan never seen any of this coming he actually thought some of these people would sincerely help an already bad economy, but instead greed set in and the rich hold on to their money and play stocks like playing roulette.
   While the rest of the country struggle to pay their bills and are tempted to go further in debt with these so called great balloon loans to help foot the bills that they already have, forgetting they have to pay those (so-called) incredible loans on top of their mortgages.
   Of course the rich blame the other people for the whole mess but I believe that a bailout should go to the people that would spend the money!
   Maybe the middle class working families that would pay off their bad loans, and the banks and mortgage companies would still get their greedy hands on that money.
   Or no bailout at all allowing the housing market to settle at a reasonable price where people could afford a home once again.
   We cannot and should not try to print our way out of this mess.
   We need sound thinking men and women in office regardless of their political beleifs, people with an idea of proper economics and smaller government allowing a corporation and the employees to negotiate together as a team.
   How can a parent teach a child to be honest and hard working to buy what they want and deserve in life if the people that lead our country aren’t honest and hard working?
   The majority of people in America are hard working blue collar middle class that pay their share of taxes and only want to provide for their families, and maybe have a little left over for a vacation or a night out with their family, and to own their own home without worrying about an irresponsible government taking their money away to allow the rich to get richer.
   And making backward socialists out of the rich who now seem to like socialism as long as our tax dollars are going to these same people who caused the problem in the first place.
   And to think most of them are supposed to be conservatives!!
   We have become a two party country of unkept promises all the while destroying the constitution and what our founding fathers worked and fought for to help keep us all free and equal, regardless of race, religion, and the amount of money we have.
