Ron Paul Or Rand Paul COULD End Up In The White House
The media’s vague interpretation of an alliance between Ron Paul and Mitt Romney, may in actuality be a foreshadowing sign that Mitt Romney may end up choosing Rand Paul, Ron Paul’s son, as his 2012 Presidential running mate. On the other hand others have interpreted the vague alliance as Mitt Romney cheeking up to the only man left in the Republican field, who truly stands a chance against President Barack Obama in 2012, Ron Paul!
Rand Paul or Ron Paul Can Win
After a poor showing by ALL the candidates during the Arizona Republican debates, speculation is now rampant that none of the candidates may end up finishing the election cycle with the 1,114 delegates needed to clinch the nomination in August. In the event that no candidate has in fact reached that necessary sum of delegates by the time of the Republican National Convention, then the election drastically turns on a couple of interesting protocols. First, the candidates have the option of “horse trading,” whereby they can “ransom off” their won delegates, in turn for some sort of “tidings,” from the eventual nominee. It is this option which has many in the Republican party wondering if that is perhaps the reason Ron Paul and Mitt Romney, have seemed to co-align themselves against the other two candidates at this juncture of the neck and neck election.
In the event that the “horse trading” of delegates does not result in a new found winner, the election could otherwise turn to a possible outside candidate, who never participated in the election in the first place, winding up as the nominee! Under this option many conservatives are wondering if perhaps Chris Christie will be called upon to accept the nomination, on a whim, despite Chris Christie himself saying he does not feel ready for such a challenge.
After doing the math, the nomination thus far has been so gridlocked that it is unlikely a majority leader will surface until May at the very earliest! Despite a majority of states holding elections on Super Tuesday, March 6th 2012, polls show that the election is still unlikely to be decided until almost a month later, after California, Texas and New York, vote. When Ron Paul won Maine, Mitt Romney won Florida, Newt Gingrich won South Carolina and Rick Santorum won Minnesota, it was easy to see why this election had many Americans shaking their heads in disbelief, but where will America stand when the dust settles?
It is no secret the fight for the White House has many political ideologies on the line, particularly fiscal ideologies, which may in turn decide the future of America. Most notably, it was President Obama himself who delayed putting an end to the Bush tax cuts until 2012, if Obama does not win a second term, it is unlikely a Republican President would enact the upcoming tax increases that Obama had delayed. Other issues also stand on the line between Democrats and Republicans in the face of the Presidency. The Keystone Pipeline in particular is a hotly debated issue which may also depend on the office of the Presidency next year. Environmentalists note that since drilling began in Saudi Arabia the Earth’s temperature has risen more than 1 full degree Fahrenheit, warning that drilling in Canada, the worlds second largest oil reserve, would possibly increase the Earth’s temperature to apocalyptic levels!
Under Obama the economy has floundered, leaving many Americans to live lifestyles which were once perceived only as nightmares. Under Obama, the American economy has been more futile than at any other point in the last half century, yet the President’s supporters remain hopeful a “turnaround” is near. Job growth has shown inklings of a resurrection this year, yet speculators have begun to assume unemployment has only seen recession, because many Americans have simply given up searching for work entirely. Unemployment still hovers over 9% yet those not searching for work, are still uncounted in that staitstic, whereby the REAL numbers of unemployed Americans today are more likely well over 25%. Teens and minority groups, also are experiencing joblessness of over 50% today in some areas.
Furthermore, President Obama has perpetuated the Auto Industry in America, despite the refusal to evolve with the modern free market. Obama has also perpetuated much of the greed on Wall Street, refusing to enact real regulatory strongholds on the American economy, despite noting that the .0001% have actually grown richer during the American recession! Worse yet, under Obama, the American housing market has yet to make itself accessible to a new generation of Americans, yet almost 300,000 homes remain vacant in the MIDWEST ALONE, at this very moment!
So despite the fact that the Republicans are war-torn so to speak, the eventual nominee will inevitably have a lot to work with, despite the fact that the incumbent has raised nearly 1 billion dollars, through you guessed it, “SUPERPACS,” another example of Obama’s hypocrisy. Ron Paul states that the American dollar itself is headed for a devastating wake up call with inflation, if government spending is not curtailed and the federal budget concerns, which Obama has grown, are not contained.
Ron Paul’s fiscally conservative message, which has been unwavering since the 1970′s, has Mitt Romney on board and is the main reason the two candidates seem to have aligned their election styles after one another.
A recent poll on Wall Street Journal.com WSJ Says Ron Paul Can Win! Over 90% of voters agree Ron Paul Can Win!
Current polls show Ron Paul has a heavy chance to win the nomination, despite the fact that he has mostly finished states in 2nd place thus far. Other polls, reflect Ron Paul’s candid honesty and grass roots support, make Ron Paul the only candidate who actually polls AHEAD of Obama, in an all out Presidential election, possibly foreshadowing the future nomination.
Unlike Romney, Gingrich and Santorum, Ron Paul is not “unelectable” despite a massive outcry over Ron Paul’s foreign policy, which has been widely misconstrued in the media. Ron Paul’s message of nation building here in America, as opposed to abroad, has resonated so well that further speculation even has Mitt Romney selecting Rand Paul, also a Congressman, as his eventual running mate, if he were to win the Presidential nomination.
This scenario presents an interesting hypothesis, a hypothesis which may explain a little more about the alleged Ron Paul and Mitt Romney, “alliance.” In the event that the election is swayed based on the “horse trading” protocols of a gridlocked election, it is likely Ron Paul may indeed hand his delegates over to Romney, in exchange for Ron Paul’s son, Rand Paul, being selected as Romney’s running mate. While it is unlikely a stalemate election, would play out with Gingrich or Santorum handing over their delegates to either Ron Paul or Mitt Romney, it is in fact possible that either Romney or Paul could trade delegates with one another, because of a broad appeal towards a fiscally conservative future. Will they? Would they? America will just have to wait and see.

Just the anouncement of a team up of Ron Paul and Mitt Romney would clench the deal and Obama would be terified. Do a poll and see what happens.
Ron Paul has less than a 5% chance of getting the GOP nomination. The math is just not there. Wishful thinking does not win elections. I would put Rand Paul as Romney’s running mate at 25% if Romney feels the need to shore up his right flank, a tactical error in my judgement. After so much right wing blather, Romney needs to shore up his moderate credentials. If he is going to convince the American voters he should be President he needs to convince the public that he is a rational being who will manage the economy better than Obama. Appealing to wackos on the right will send the same message as McCain did by picking Palin with disastrous results. The rational choice would be a Pawlenty type, someone with real experience in governing a diverse state and can appeal to a wide spectrum. Niche candidates like Paul work well in primaries but fall apart under the bright lights of the intense scrutiny that comes with a Presidential run.
Ron Paul will only dominate under bright lights. He isn’t being told what to say, and dsoesnt have a written script. Seeing Rand Paul next to Mitt may be a good thing, atleast possibly keep goldmansachs staff out of chair seats. Ron Paul is still my choice, and I am the example of next generation votors, being only 20 years old, hopefully my generation makes a difference.
My biggest concern politically right now, ending the oil hunt, and putting an end to these wars. Im not worried about the economy, because I know what makes all the difference. Every canidate but Paul just says appealing things for a vote, with no real desire to fix anything. Paul speaks truth.
