Hi E. J. and Chadwick,
Thanks for your metion of Dr. Ron Paul and his recent campaign activities. Those of us following Dr. Paul have known he was still in the race and we appreciate it when others acknowledge it, too.
While it's true that Dr. Paul has been less active on the campaign trail, saying he "slunk away" to campaign for his congressional seat is not quite accurate. Dr. Paul focused on his 14th District campaign for Congress in TX and won over 70% of the vote on March 4th. Since then he has been hard at work, doing his job on Capitol Hill on behalf of his constituents. I'm not sure how much "work" Senator McCain has accomplished for his constituents while making 33 campaign appearances and trips abroad to the Middle East.
Dr. Paul has spoken directly with Chairman Bernanke about our economic crisis and the Federal Reserve. He has appeared on many television and radio programs sharing these views while answering difficult questions on how to turn our economy around. Dr. Paul is also preparing for the release of his new book, "The Revolution: A Manifesto" next week. He remains active and purposeful in sharing his message of liberty and freedom with those eager to hear it.
The really good news is that this campaign has always been a campaign of the people, and the grassroots have not "slunk away" in the least. They have been canvassing and caucusing and participating in the process of sharing Dr. Paul's message on a local level. The grassroots has made good headway securing delegates supporting Dr. Paul to their state and the national convention. This is where the Republican nominee for President will be chosen. Senator McCain is the presumptive nominee and hasn't won anything yet.
If you are eager for change and want a President who walks the talk of freedom, lower taxes and reduced spendking (and has done so for 30 years), please visit: www.ronpaul2008.com. We'd welcome your support to the cause of freedom for all.
Peace, Prosperity and Paul in 2008!
