Ernest, you can support Ron Paul, but TEA is about EDUCATION- shed light on the facts and candidates,because public schools and lame stream media FAIL to give any and all informationto inform the people.

[William T. Wright]

Personally, I am voting for:ABO

Anybody But Obama

I don't care if it a animal control officer.

Jack, I agree with you.  I was however somewhat impresses with the way Paul handled himself in the last debate about national defence.  I was VERY impressed with Romney, Gingrich and Bachman and very disappointed in Herman Cain's showing.  I have always leaned towards Gingrich a little which is what made it difficult for me to make a decision.  I was around and old enough to remember what he did when he was speaker (and he was phenominal.........but he was dealing with an adult ...a womanizer but an adult).  The results of the last debate have put me pretty solidly in the Gingrich column, but I do know Romney is very organized and has people organizing precincts, so unless others step up for their candidates, we may get someone we all don't really want.

Ernest:  There was no endorsement of any candidate on FCTP.

That is your opinion and you are welcome to it.
Thanks for educating me on all facts on Ron Paul. I would rather here Ron Paul and who is it you say has a snowballs chance. As long as people steer this movement from Herman Cain now to Newt is the direction I see some people go. Some will not have confidence in their choice. So will in fact vote for not the best candidate but the most popular candidate they want to be winners. If electing the wrong president comes down to a popularity contest we as a nation have lost what we need most. Powers are in numbers but believing in the poll numbers this not how I make a decision. Listen to your thoughts Ron Paul is a patriot and has been a patriot for longer than these other people have been alive. Mr. Paul does not get his equal time in the media and now I see more of the same. I’m sure that Ron Paul will not have to try and learn as much as our current president has with his on the job training. People said that we’ll never get the fed to let us play IRS through their books. Ron Paul has been around Washington longer than all of the candidates so he knows how the machine works and doesn't work and he despises it.

If Ron Paul had a snowballs chance in hell of getting the nomination I would support him. Realistically though he doesn't. His weak foreign policy makes him unelectable in my opinion. His stance on national defense is naive and scary to say the least. He is much better suited to take over Ben Bernanke's job as chairman of the Federal Reserve, I personally think that is where Ron Paul would do the most good.

[Ernest Lephart]

I am sorry to see that the original Tea Party candidate is no longer being supported here. I joined the Tea Party because of Ron Paul now you are promoting a candidate that used to work for the Federal Reserve. I do not support Herman Mccain.

Reagan spoke in soaring rhetoric, but was a pragmatist. He and Tip O'Niell got things done. The same was true for JFK and Lincoln. They were not tied to an ideology, they got things done. But to get elected you have to win the middle. That is where elections are won and lost.

[Jack]

Amanda, sorry but again I have to dissagree with you. Ronald Reagan didn't ride the center line. Contrary to popular belief, a true/real conservative can win an election, it has been done before. It just takes someone with strong moral character, enough self-confidence and backbone to risk their reputations on what they really believe in. Someone with enough honor and conviction to properly serve the office for which they were elected. Great Presidents like Lincoln, JFK and Reagan don't come along very often but when they do they are not found in the middle of the road. Those are the ones that make a difference. Those are the ones that leave a legacy. If we do not set the bar high enough then how do we ever expect to achieve great things. We are well beyond just needing to win. We need to go for broke, because if we once again settle for the middle of the road, broke is exactly what this country will be.

Jack, though I appreciate your optimism, the middle is still where elections are won and lost. It will boil down to whom can win the middle twenty percent. It is the truest thing in elections. If you do not get forty percent you aren't even covering your base. It is the middle twenty. That is why Ohio is such a key state, they are middle of the road dems and republicans. They turn away from candidates who aren't upto their fairly high standards. Win Ohio, Pennsylvania, where the suburbs of Philly are the key, one congressional district. The I-4 corridor in Florida. Three northern counties in Virginia,Raliegh-Durham in NC. That is all you are talking about. Those small differenccan make all the differnces. So no purity tests, but candidates that can appeal to
