What I find so interesting about the Ron Paul movement is that he didnt start it himself. From what I understand, there was and is a big group of people on the Internet who found his website, analyzed his voting record and then determined- this is our guy. They then convinced him to run! The group is Libertarian minded and I see them all over boards, exposing their limited government views.
So Ron Paul is exactly opposite of many politicians who try to run and then convince people. Ron Paul is literally just along for the ride.
I think the big question is- what Republican is going to adopt some of his views on taxation and most importantly, foreign policy, to capitalize on this movement. Ron Paul polls very well amongst independents and nobody talks about it.
Maybe a Huckbee-Paul ticket? They both want to abolish the IRS. Now Huckbee would just have to take his foreign policy stance.
Also, if Paul doesnt take Iowa, he is done.
