What is the connection between young people and Ron Paul??
Not that I am against that- I am just shocked. The last few days I've worked a couple different political booths @ our county fair and the 18-25 year olds LOVE Ron Paul- why? They LIKE Michell Bachman but the LOVE Ron Paul!
As far as I know Ron hasn't done anything special to target the youth, but somehow they get his message. I have asked lots of them why- none can really give an answer though- they are just somehow drawn to him.
Does anybody have any ideas why??
Ron Paul wants the US to mind their own business and let everyone else do as they please.. a concept that resonates with the young.
Yep- that - and Paul believes many of the social issues (gay issues, abortion, drugs, education, most criminal law, etc. etc.) should not even be Federal issues- and should be left to the states to decide and handle...
One of the reason I supported Paul in 08...
Even old Rudy can see thats part of the division that shot down the Repubs in 08....Especially when Palin joined the ticket...
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who is considering another presidential run, urged Republicans on Sunday "to get the heck out of people's bedrooms and let these things get decided by states."
"We'd be a much more successful political party if we stuck to our economic, conservative roots," Giuliani told CNN.
