The Internet Effect Supplemental: Ron Paul note.
Saturday, December 1st, 2007“He misconstrued my beliefs.” - Ron Paul re: John McCain attacking him at the Republican YouTube debate.
I am amazed at his stickiness. He seems to attract the undercurrent need of prototypical-American freedom in people. He brings up fundamental American issues that effect everyone (and always have), has interesting and different things to say about the junk topics being portrayed as the platform, and can even handle serious modern issues. His statements are all theoretically solid. He interests people that aren’t interested in politics. The dude sounds like Thomas Jefferson.
I’m wondering what kind of insane explosion an internet movement can cause in a real live grassroots campaign.
It’s worth noting I still don’t consider anyone ready to receive votes. I could be convinced though.
Addendum: hahah caught this related thing right after I made this.
