Video (8 minutes, 41 seconds)The reason why Ron Paul‘s popularity is skyrocketing is easy to understand after hearing him talk with Jay Leno on the Tonight Show: his message makes sense, and it resonates with the American people.Earlier this month, Ron Paul even set an online fundraising record when he raised over $4 million in just 24 hours.Ron Paul’s message is one of freedom and liberty for you as an individual. In terms of your health, Ron Paul is committed to making positive changes in the health-care arena, which is one of the reasons why I want to share his views with you. Paul believes in:
Like Dr. Mercola, I too have never donated to a political candidate, much less ran around telling people about one, but that's what I've been doing ever since seeing Ron Paul's videos.
I had pretty much given up on our political system and have not voted for the past several elections because I was so disgusted with the candidates.
But I also never bothered to research candidates and vote in the primaries, which is PARAMONT for getting a candidate in that is actually worth voting for.
If you like Ron Paul or even just think he'd do a better job than anyone else you've seen in this race, PLEASE vote in the primaries on Feb. 5, 2008!
You have to be registered Republican to vote for him in the primaries, but its worth it! I changed my party status this week and will be voting Feb. 5th.
This time I will not be left with feelings of hopelessness and regret, knowing that I could have done something about who is running for President and didn't.
Edmund Burke said, "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
Maybe you were like me, telling yourself you were just too busy to do anything about the problems we face in this day and age. But that's just not true. We can all do something to bring about change.
If you haven't already done so, take 5 minutes and mark your calendar to vote in the primaries on Feb. 5th. If you need to change your party affiliation, you must do so before Jan. 22nd! Here's the link for voter registration in California (sorry I don't have it for other States, but just Google your State name along with "voter registration"):

Also, BE SURE to do any donations to the Ron Paul campaing on December 16th, as mentioned here on Mercola's site. Its not about the money as much as it is the media coverage, which comes when the money is raised in one day in a large amount. http://teaparty07.com/
I think you are right Seg, a true gentleman. I felt the same way about Ted Heath, leader of the Conservative party here in England and what did he do? Sold his country to the European Union which was called the European Economic Community back then. Told us it was just for trade purposes, never mentioned what would happen in years to come, a federal Europe full of corruption and unelected thieves and liars. But still, I believe that Dr Paul is a good man and if I were American I would be voting for him. Never mind the cheerleader, save (vote for) Ron Paul and save the world! The freedom lovers of the world are depending on our American friends to do the right thing.
John.
I agree most heartily. I have also seen that HONESTY AND ABILITY TO BE ONESELF MINUS THE LIES, in this gentleman, Ron Paul.
I applaud Dr Mercola for bringing politics into his newsletter. It is politics that is the main cause of poor health in this country and it is politics that makes it so hard for us that want to be healthy to stay healthy. I have requested others in the natural health community(Barron,Adams) to start pushing for Ron Paul. They choose not to because it is politics and I think this is a mistake. Ron Paul gives me hope on not only my health freedom but lots more. Bravo Dr. Mercola. Keep it up !!!!
Ron Paul has never voted to raise taxes or Congressional pay. He has always voted against USA PATRIOT Act, The Military Commissions Act, and the Iraq War.
