Nephew of Rick Santorum: Vote Ron Paul!
by Free Britney at .Former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum catapulted himself to the top tier of the Republican presidential race this week, losing the Iowa caucus by just eight votes.
With newly-minted contender status comes increased scrutiny, however. Santorum was booed off stage in New Hampshire yesterday for comments about gay marriage.
Not everyone in his own family is convinced he's up to the task, either. This week his nephew penned an editorial for the Daily Caller in support of ... Ron Paul.
"If you want another big-government politician who supports the status quo to run our country, you should vote for my uncle, Rick Santorum," John Garver writes.
Garver, a 19-year-old student at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, continues:
"America is based on a strong belief in individual liberty. My uncle’s interventionist policies, both domestic and foreign, stem from his irrational fear of freedom not working.
It is not the government’s job to dictate to individuals how they must live. The Constitution was designed to protect individual liberty. My Uncle Rick cannot fathom a society in which people cooperate and work with each other freely.
When Republicans were spending so much money under President Bush, my uncle was right there along with them as a senator. The reason we have so much debt is not only because of Democrats, but also because of big-spending Republicans like my Uncle Rick.
It is because of this inability of status quo politicians to recognize the importance of our individual liberties that I have been drawn to Ron Paul. Unlike my uncle, he does not believe the American people are incapable of forming decisions.
He believes that an individual is more powerful than any group (a notion our founding fathers also believed in).
Another important reason I support Ron Paul is his position on foreign policy. He is the only candidate willing to bring our troops home, not only from the Middle East, but from around the world.
Ron Paul seems to be the only candidate trying to win the election for a reason other than simply winning the election. This year, I’ll vote for an honest change in our government.
I’ll vote for real hope. I’ll vote for a real leader. This year, I will vote for Ron Paul."
The candidates square off, along with frontrunner Mitt Romney, in debates Saturday night and Sunday morning in New Hampshire, which holds its primary Tuesday.
Expect fireworks.

The Readers Digest version. We Paulites will not transfer our vote to the RNC, No Way No Shape Period. So they can give us our opinion. To let the RNC Something else you need to know. If Doc Paul were to tell us to vote the party line. And he wont. Why you ask? Because they don't have a single Champion in the Stable. Not one. If they did. Doc Paul would be home enjoying his family. The other thing that most people miss is Ron Paul Is not running because he wants to. He is Running because He believes he has to.
Does anybody bother to ask why NOBODY since 1913 Besided JFK and Bobby. And they were murdered because of it,been willing to Bang the Drum and wake us up.And trying to get legislation to the floor for and up or down on a bill he authored and resubmits every term. And it gets buried every year. Why you ask. The purpose of the bill was to change From unlimited to two terms for Congress and the Senate. So why does get it shot down as soon as he rolls it out? And if you would like to know just pervasive the infestation. of corruption in DC is? Piece of cake. You first start with NO votes on NDAA = 7 Doc Paul was not there. But was a no anyway. Now you add the NO votes for the Patriot Act. To the No votes of NDAA. Your total will be close. Where does all that Corruption ooze out from?
Doc Paul is the Person that started The Waking of America. At least as far as the FED goes. When He got to DC his first term. Saw the corruption. Decided to fix it. That's what doctors do. At least they try. Interesting thing about that is. Doc Paul wears two hats. Both require the swearing of an oath. And he has walked the walk. Never wavered. That said... So He diagnosed the ailment that the US suffers from. But he is an island. Nobody else was either clean enough, or brave enough to take the fight to The Fire Breathing Dragon. He has been doing it on his own That is until We Paulites started showing up. He had the backbone to throw down the gauntlet and challenged both the FED and the dirty politicians that he has had to endure For over two decades.
Simple fact is.It is not our fault. That the RNC can't field a CHAMPION. It is not our fault that there does not appear to be any body in the US that's brave enough or clean enough and most importantly willing to even talk about taking back our country from the the FED Stop thinking for a second. Then start thinking. Maybe the reset will help/ .It is highly likely that if We The People had not been sold out by our wonderful TRUST WORTHY Elected Officials in 1913. When they secretly shoved that abomination down our throats. We probably would not be having this conversation. The Federal Reserve Bank is a Fatal Disease. And The RNC can choose to as Bush Junior so aptly said it. "Your Either With Us. Or You Are With Them.
Abortion, immigration, healthcare, campaign reform, etc are back burner items for We Americans/ Paulites. So you ask? Why would we throw our votes away even if Doc Paul just said . I'm tired and Going home. And he would have our blessing and respect love and appreciation for ever, If he chose to do so.The man has giver more than any 10 people that I can bring to mind. We will throw our votes away. Because in so doing. The hue and cry will be heard around the world. Everytime some Republican Whiner starts ranting about how Ron Pauls Paulites gave us Obama for another term. Now America is lost. She's finished. And that's correct. 100 percent. But know this. That Lament will wake up the rest of America. And that just might save their lives.
