Everyone needs to wake up to Ron Paul's message... This man is literally trying to save our country. I Would not vote if it were not for Ron Paul running this time. The North American Union is not a conspiracy theory and neither is the way our income tax pays for our rented currency. Our highways are being sold off to foriegners and will be turned into toll roads. Texans are ready to pick up their guns and fight because their land is being TAKEN from them to build the NAFTA hwy. Most other candidates are in favor of this happening... If that's what you want then Ron Paul is not for you, go ahead and vote for the puppet clonies and say goodbye to the small freedoms we still cherish. Register Republican to vote in the primary. Our country is being destroyed. Read more here.
Ron Paul sets a new web record on Technorati
July 10, 2007Posted by Tex MacRae at July 10, 2007 05:34 PM
I've been a blogger for years and my Technorati account dates back to March of 2004. But, I've never seen anything like the sustained presence of Ron Paul in the Technorati top search terms. The Paris Hiltons and iPhones come and go and YouTube is almost always at the top. But a politician? When has that ever happened before? According to a Technorati spokesman, never.
As for comparable searches on potential presidential candidates, interestingly enough, there aren't any. Ron Paul has had the longest stint in our top searches out of all candidates. Mike Gravel had a quick stint, he's another grass-roots Web campaigner. But aside from that and a few blips when Obama, Clinton, and Edwards uploaded YouTube videos or after the debates, Ron Paul has been the most sustained top search for political candidates.
About the sustained trajectory of Ron Paul's popularity in the blogosphere, here's what Technorati's spokesman had to say:
"Ron Paul" was relatively unsearched-for term, until...
-May 4, when he became a popular (but not top) search.
THEN on...May 8, his popularity quadrupled and he became an official top search (thus entering the online zeitgeist, you might say), all building up to May 15-16, when he became really really hot (peaking on the 16th), and has since been enjoying a steady stream of searches. Read more here.
A Message From Ron Paul
July 9, 2007
A local TV station just called, wanting to follow up on the Sunday ABC interview. Their stated reason: "Your campaign is really picking up steam!"
Darn right, thanks to you and so many others. Of course, some in the media want to see this campaign lose steam. But they’re not going to get their way.
I know that every day: for example, whenever I attend one of our big, enthusiastic meetup groups.
As I look around, I always think: how lucky I am to be part of such a movement. And how many young people care deeply about our ideas.
A friend of mine used to wonder what would become of our movement when all the older members of it passed on. Now, he says, there is no doubt that we are sowing the seeds of an even more vibrant and principled freedom movement. The future can be bright indeed.
At a rally in Nevada the other day, I asked a husband and wife how they had gotten interested in this campaign. "Though our 13-year-old son," they told me.
Remember the complaints that kids were addicted to TV and video games, and ignored the world around them? There are plenty who don't fit that bill. And the tool in their hands and ours is the internet. With it, we can circumvent the biased media.
Later this week I go to Google—perhaps the nerve center of the internet—at the company's invitation, to talk to all their employees. Brilliant young techies are part of our constituency, and I am looking forward to that visit. There are two rallies too.
Won't you help keep our internet campaign going and growing? Please aid me in traveling to our rallies, and in getting the word out in every way possible. Make your most generous donation https://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate/.
This campaign is picking up steam. But the engine needs fuel. Please join me https://www.ronpaul2008.com/join/ in this great endeavor for America's future.
Sincerely,
Ron

LOVELAND, Colo. -- Against the majestic backdrop of the Rocky Mountains, in the far eastern corner of Colorado where the land begins to flatten into a vast golden prairie, two teenagers trudge along the weed-bitten edge of an isolated highway. Blistered and sunburned, they endure wind, rain and searing heat. But still, they slog forward in what has become a quixotic journey across the country in an effort to end the Iraq war.

THIS RALLY WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE SAME DAY OF THE "LIVE FREE OR DIE CONCERT" IN SUPPORT OF ED AND ELAINE BROWN IN PLAINFIELD NH:
