Ron Paul Stops in Bismarck, N.D., Before Super Tuesday
Long-shot Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul appeared before about 300 supporters Monday in Bismarck, N.D., calling the state “fertile ground” for his message.
“This is a small state, but you can send a big message,” Paul told the crowd gathered at the Bismarck Elks club, according to The Bismarck Tribune. “A message here for liberty will be heard around the country and around the world.
After the event, Paul said he sees winning the North Dakota caucuses as a real possibility, but that it’s not his only objective.
“Tomorrow, I think the goal is to come in first in North Dakota,” he told reporters. “But if we come in second that will be fine, because the enthusiasm will continue to build.”
Paul, who held a rally earlier Monday in Fargo, is the third presidential candidate to visit North Dakota. Former Republican candidate Rudy Giuliani visited last November and former Democratic candidate Dennis Kucinich visited last September.
Crowd members showed their enthusiasm for the candidate with cheers and signs such as one homemade model that read “legalize the Constitution.”
Eric Lutz, a 26-year-old online business owner who attended Monday’s rally, said he was first attracted to Paul because of these views on the Constitution and the nation’s economy.
“I agree with a lot of his views, and I came (to the rally today) because I wanted to learn more,” he said, according to the Tribune.

How can the Republicans select a man who finds it humerous to sing: Bomb, Bomb, Bomb … Bomb, Bomb Iran in front of a public audience? A “joke” that proposes to kill thousands of people? This conservative WILL NOT come around - I’ll make my vote count: RON PAUL (even if I have to take my pen with me into the voting booth).
Vote for the Pursuit of Virtue…
Vote for Principle…
Vote for Courage…
Vote Ron Paul!
Vote Against Fear…
Vote Against Corporatism…

I will never watch any Fox station again for as long as I live. In my book they have absolutely no credibility any more.
To withhold the truth is to perpetuate a lie. If they lie once, they will lie again and I have better things to do than listen to known liars.

Write Ron Pauls name in the ballot if he is not on there.
The media may eliminate him, parties may spit on him, a mob may try to assasinate him, but his message stands.
FREEDOM.
From tyrany, from enemies, and from opression in any form, ie. taxes, “social security”(scocialism), lack of education, bias special interest groups, etc…
Don’t, I warn you, let ignorance and the “accepted” or “politicaly correct” mindset lead you like cattle to the slaughter. Don’t be sheep, following there leader off a cliff. Take a stand VOTE for Ron Paul or whomever you think will be the best, but don’t let someone tell you that “they won’t win” or he’s a long-shot…..you decide that. Remember, demographics can make polls say anything you want.
2008 - YOU really do DECIDE….so DO!
Some months ago, I logged in to the websites of all of the candidates, both parties. Ron Paul was the only one who had factual definitive content. I emailed the other candidates that I thought may have some merit but didn’t specify their positions on issues as important as illegal immigration, the economy, our military presence around the world, among many others. Well, that was months ago. I suppose a reply to my inquiry is not forthcoming anytime soon. With the exception of Ron paul, each addressed ‘the issues’ in flowery terms, buzz words, and catch phrases.
It is sad, blame the media if you must, but we as a society are to blame. Dr. Paul is obviously to me, the candidate with the crosshairs on the issues, extrapolated out to the n’th degree. I believe he is the one clear headed, both feet on the ground candidate in the race. Unfortunately, we as a society have been dumbed-down by watching too much American Idol, Entertainment Tonight, Access Hollywood, etc., and as a result are only able to respond to empty personalities glamorized by the media and public relations people. Ron is far too real and deep thinking for our pop-tart culture. I am hopeful that Ron will continue on in his campaign, and perhaps now that some of the forest has fallen by the wayside, we will be able to see the tallest tree on our horizon. perhaps then, perhaps then the media will be embarrassed into giving him the coverage that he deserves. And perhaps too, Americans will be able to finally hear a voice of reason ~
Good to see that Ron Paul and his followers continue to fight.

Fox and the media is stealing America right in front of us, funding by international banking interest’s and the sad part is that the only way they accomplish this is by us letting them…
ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA – With the results of many of the “Super Tuesday” primaries and caucuses now finalized, the Ron Paul campaign is now projecting that it has at least 42 delegates to the national convention secured.
We are tired of war and taxes. We are waking up and wont take it any more.
Go Ron Paul
Fox needs to live up to the “fair & balanced” motto and start covering Ron Paul, the only true conservative republican candidate who wants to get us out of the Iraq fiasco. Paul needs to approach Ross Perot as a financial backer & possible running mate.
