VP Ron Paul?

I've pondered the possibilities and I have come to the conclusion it would be the next best thing to having Ron Paul as President. First of all he would be a heartbeat away from the presidency and John McCain is no way going to live for the next four and a half years much less eight plus years. But until Big Mac kicks the bucket the good doctor would be President Pro Tiem of the Senate. He would hold the tie-breaker vote when that body was split evenly. So he would vote with either side depending on who was supporting the liberty of the American people. Therefore, from the perspective of Ron Paul supporters this is a no brainer. Vice President Ron Paul would in reality mean President Ron Paul. The only question is how much time and in the meantime Dr. No would be President Pro Tiem of the Senate blocking attacks on our liberty.

As for McCain supporters, without Ron Paul on the ticket somewhere, the Republicans are toast! Get used to saying President Obama maybe with a heaping helping of Hilliary on the side. However, with Ron Paul on the ticket they win by a landslide. Along with Ron Paul comes his hundreds of thousands of supporters and millions upon millions of dollars. McCain would be crazy to lose on purpose with these resources and die-hard voting supporters there for the taking.

Then there is the American people. For them Vice President Ron Paul represents a second chance. Although we all realize McCain is the political opposite of Ron Paul and will pursue the same failed big federal government boondoggles, as the nation and our economy sink unto crisis, vice President Ron Paul will be there to save the day with wise alternatives based on personal liberty. So if McCain somehow goes against thousands of years of history and makes collectivism actually work then his supporters and all of America will get what they want. But should reality still remain in effect like the laws of gravity then should President McCain follow a collectivist strategy and flop miserably, America has a second chance with Ron Paul.

Finally, there is Ron Earnest Paul. This is a lot to ask of the good doctor to run with his political opposite. But he need not compromise his principles in any manner. During his entire time in office he would never need to speak or do anything against his principles. In fact he could take the job under the understanding that he is America's parachute. He would be clear in his opposition to anything unconstitutional and point out where his "running mate" McCain was following a policy of folly. But Ron Paul, though not a McCain supporter would realize that America's future would be best assured with Ron Paul in the White House even as Vice President then the dangers of an Obama/Clinton ticket winning. The doctor must also realize that God and fate are on our side so with Ron Paul a heartbeat away from the presidency I wouldn't want to have McCain's heart. If the situation presents itself Ron - take it! Take the job amigo! Take it but speak clearly for liberty as you always do. Darn it all the collectivists have been crawling their way to the top lying all the way. Why can't you stand up telling the truth to get to the top?

Make no mistake about it - I'd prefer a President Ron Paul now. However, a smart general always has back up plans. The above is a plan B if the good doctor cannot persuade enough delegates to nominate him in September. That is still a possibility because times are changing fast and people are worried. Do you know what the number one search criteria has become for people around the country who find my blog?

Economic collapse...

I think there is more chance of Ron Paul being on an Obama ticket than on a McCain ticket. They are both of similar minds on the war and Ron Paul could teach Obama some basic economics.

I don't think either is going to happen...unless McCain wants to be prezy so badly and realizes it's not going to happen without doctor Paul. But I'm still hoping Ron Paul takes the nomination outright. But my point is IF such an opportunity presented itself, for whatever reason, I want to show everyone would benefit...except Barrack and Hillary of course. If it did I'm just saying we voters should hold are nose and go with it knowing Mac ain't going to last long.

A good general plans for all circumstances even if remote.

My problem is that McCain is a warmonger and his mother is in her nineties and still doing fine. He may not kick the bucket any time soon and we have someone in the white house who thinks keeping soliders in Iraq 100 years is fine. McCain also has post traumatic stress disorder and possibly dementia and these are not good things to have when going into office.

Ditto here. I'm hoping God gives us a break for a change. If Ron Paul is not the nominee then I'm not sure what I'll do - write in Ron Paul or vote for Bob Barr. I do what is most beneficial.
