Why Ron has their vote

Displays why others are voting for Ron Paul. These are randomly selected.
I am voting for Ron Paul because he is a small government candidate. The other Republicans are mitt flopping, drag dressing, war mongers.
He actually has a brain and has a clear idea of our nation really needs.
He is the ONLY candidate that is NOT a member of the CFR or any other international group!
Ron Paul is a defender of true liberty and the U.S. Constitution.
Ron Paul is the only man that has a consistent record and is truly conservative. He gives back a portion of his congressional pay each year and refuses money from lobbyists. Why let another candidate keep the war going when it's costing us, we borrow from China, Paul is the only honest candidate to tell us this and to get us out of the mess we were put into by Bush.
Ron Paul has demonstrated that he is a staunch defender of the constitution and his wisdom concerning Middle East policy is miles ahead of everyone else
ron paul is the only one who makes sense on foreign and domestic issues and the only one who is standing for true change that this country needs.
Ron Paul is a true Republican with a stellar voting record. Look it up! NH is for Ron Paul!
More than any other candidate on the Republican side (and perhaps the election as a whole), Ron Paul stands on principle... you're getting what you are voting for.
only candidate both democratic and republican that declares that he will bring troops home from Iraq right away and the 700 bases around the world. Will end the collapse of the US Dollar.
He is a strong proponent of Civil Liberties, Peace and the Free Market.
Because Ron Paul is a consistent and principled candidate who, unlike the other candidates, opposes foreign imperialism and domestic tyrrany.
R. Paul speaks for the people, more liberty means less government.
Ron Paul is one of the few presidential candidates who sincerely call for peace and the only candidate who desires limited government - which means less federal spending and fewer taxes. He is a champion of liberty and a man of integrity - he returns a portion of his congressional pay to the Treasury, he opted out of the lucrative congressional pension plan, and he absolutely refuses special interest money. He is my hero.
The only real conservative is Ron Paul. Look at the issues, he's the only one who is founding father material.
He supports the constitution, what else is there to say? The constitution was written to run this country and that is how the founding fathers wanted it to be run.
Mr. Paul is the only candidate that has shown consistency in his beliefs. He is the only hope to make our country a free and prosperous nation again. His monetary policies, views on the war, and understanding of the Constitution show he is an educated man with the ability to create lasting reform. He bridges all people from Democrats to Republicans, all ethnicities and orientations because he supports state's rights and personal property rights. With Ron Paul we will be a free nation.
Ron Paul is the only candidate who is going to protect our freedoms, adhere to the constitution, and end pointless foreign wars. It's time for the country to return to it's roots!
Ive voted for Ron Paul because he is going to help us get back to the True America.
libertainism is what we need go ron paul
Ron Paul is the only true conservative. He is the only one who will actively work to minimize the size of government and restore the Constitution.
The only logical choice.
he will save this country
Ron Paul is the only Republican I can see voting for. He tells the truth. Honesty is ridiculously rare in Washington these days.
Ron Paul wants to abolish the Federal Reserve. He has my vote!
