I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in, the economic freedom that conservatives used to believe in, and the personal freedom that America used to believe in.

Ron Paul Says It’s Too Early To Say If He’ll Run In 2012

Ron Paul isn’t saying yes to another run for the White House, but he’s not saying no either

It’s “too early” to say whether Rep. Ron Paul will run again for president, the Texas Republican said Saturday.

The libertarian congressman told a crowd in Iowa, the starting point for a presidential campaign, that he is simply focused on reelection to the House.

“It’s not on my mind, it’s too early, and I will be filing for my congressional seat,” Paul said in an interview with IowaPolitics.com.

“I don’t have any plans made,” he said.

If the first for liberty is going to be a campaign of ideas and not a cult of personality, then it has to move beyond devotion to one man.

So no, I don’t think Ron Paul should run in 2012. He wouldn’t win and, quite honestly, he’d be too old to be President even if he did.

Instead, it’s time to start looking at other candidates, like Gary Johnson.
