Keep 'em in Congress...
Here's to our real presidential candidates. Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich keep on going, fighting the real fight. Don't let them down, stay involved and keep them in in November. Reminding you a real patriot acts...
Rand Paul: Is the Revolution Over of Just Beginning? (3/10/08)
by Rand Paul, MD March 8, 2008
Reports that Ron Paul has quit the Presidential Race remind me of Mark Twain's famous "Reports of my death are greatly exaggerated." The Ron Paul Presidential campaign continues, albeit at a different pace.
What does that mean?
Ron Paul will continue to contest the remaining primaries. Ron Paul's name will be on all the remaining state ballots. Ron Paul volunteers are encouraged to become precinct captains, delegates to state and national conventions, and to try pass Constitutional proposals to each state's Republican platform.
For example, volunteers in each state should try to attach amendments such as the following: Republicans believe that war should only be fought after a proper Declaration of War by Congress. Another possible platform idea is that: Republican Congressmen are expected to vote against any federal budget, Republican or Democrat, that is not balanced.
Want to have some fun? Just imagine the fun when the debate begins on these ideas.
Is Ron Paul still campaigning for president? Yes. Ron Paul has tentative plans to campaign in Pennsylvania and Kentucky. Ron Paul will also likely appear in other states that have remaining primaries.
The press is reporting that Ron Paul has quit the race. This is not true. Ron Paul's video simply acknowledges that the campaign will continue but will also transform into additional activities such as education and supporting other candidates. In Kentucky we just held precinct conventions and Ron Paul Republicans won hundreds of precinct captains. In Kyle, Texas, Craig Young upset the establishment choice for Republican County Chairman.
The Ron Paul Revolution lives on! Victory comes in many forms. Help shape what the Ron Paul revolution becomes.See also my interview on WBKO's website

10,000 Republicans Switch Party to Vote in Hotly Contested Kucinich Congressional Democratic Primary Race

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Monday, March 10, 2008
CLEVELAND, OH - In a hotly contested five-way race to retain his Congressional seat in the Ohio Democratic primary last week, Rep. Dennis Kucinich faced serious challenges from Republican media, Republican contributors, Republican advisors, and, as it turns out, Republican voters who crossed over on election day.
According to figures released yesterday, about 10,000 registered Republicans in Kucinich's 10th Congressional District switched their party affiliation to vote in the Democratic primary. That cross-over strategy, led nationally by Rush Limbaugh, was heavily promoted by the local Clear Channel radio station that was bolstering a "Dump Dennis" campaign. The anti-Kucinich campaign was also assisted by The Plain Dealer newspaper, which editorially endorsed one of his challengers four separate times; by hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from Republican corporate interests; and by support from Republican advisors.
Despite the opposition, Kucinich won more than 50% of the vote in the five-way contest, outpacing the heavily financed and supported second-place finisher by more than 20,000 votes. Of the nearly 136,000 votes cast, about 10,000 were cast by Republicans.
Kucinich said the extent of the Republican cross-over vote was "shocking" and reflected "a concerted effort by Republican interests to interfere in the Democratic primary and knock me out of Congress." He added, "They obviously don't like my opposition to the war, trade, and tax policies of the Bush/Cheney Administration, or my calls for impeachment hearings. But to go to these lengths is absolutely unprecedented."
Kucinich, widely regarded as the most progressive member of the U.S. House, survived the effort by relying on strong and solid support from organized labor and from his traditional grassroots political base, plus additional financial support from a national constituency attracted to his Presidential campaign, which ended in January.
But, political observers and media analysts are predicting that Kucinich remains vulnerable to his Republican opponent in November - a former state representative and Republican Party chief who will draw the same kind of financial and institutional support that Kucinich's chief Democratic rival relied on in the primary election. Although the Congressional District has been reliably Democratic throughout Kucinich's six terms, the anti-Kucinich sentiment among Republican interests is likely to fuel a massive outpouring of support for his opponent in the general election campaign.
