I think they claim that about Ron Paul because they actually think he'll try to implement things he believes in. One of those things being that pesky U.S. Constitution that so many of us have taken an oath to protect and defend. I believe that it scares the absolute crap out of them that he might actually get elected. Because they could not control him.
I don't agree with some of his views but I do think that of all the candidates out there he is literally the only one who gives a flying rip about the Constitution. Of what's left in the field, I think he's the only one I could with clear conscience actually vote for currently. Do I think it would make any difference if he got elected? Not a lot (though you never really know). I think he'd break the strongest and turn the hardest to keep America from going over what appears to be the inevitable cliff we are hurtling toward. What success he would have I don't know. I can tell you one thing though. If he is not the Republican candidate, I will find myself for the first time in my life not being able to vote for either of the two "sides".
There is no "lesser evil" this time. At some point you get to "Gosh, looks like it's evil or evil lite this time!" Participation in that is a sham. I know, it's been a sham for a long time but in the past there was at least a small ray of hope. Maybe it was just an air of "hopiness".
Personally, I doubt he'll end up the nominee. I think he'll hang on to the bitter end though and fight it out. My America is about gone though and, and... then what? What the hell do people do who live through the destruction of their country? I do not see any good or clear choices ahead.
