They are disgusted with Bush and realize that the Democrats are a hopeless party of failure. When the election cycle hits its peak Paul is going to really make an impact nationwide. |

[/ QUOTE ] I've heard the exact same thing from libertarians every election cycle since I've been paying attention. Your cause won't get any more support than it did thirty years ago. I hope you're setting your bar for "impact nationwide" at about 2%. |

I'm sure less than 5% of college students would identify themselves as libertarian or equivalent. |

Re: Gauging Ron Paul Support
Look at the situation the two parties are in, it is much different that in previous elections. 8 years of bush have made the republicans pretty damn hard to support, and the democrats running are all marshmellows. As much as I dislike the viewpoint personally, libertarianism is becoming "cool" to support. I guess I don't understand the big picture of 20th century of american politics as well as you guys, what other libertarian failures would you compare Paul to? During the debates Paul is going to come off very well compared to everyone else because of young people's current attitudes. It's the same reason Obama got so much early support. How good a candidate he is was irrelevent, he got a lot of support because of people's dissatisfaction with bush. Paul will get a similar bonus. I have no illusions about what his chances are because of how our political and media structure is set up to prevent people like him from succeeding, but he is going to make big gains relative to where he is not and where other libertarians have been in the past.
