I don't like him anyway.

But Grey, don't you want to tell everyone about how awesome Ron Paul is? It's what the cool kids are doing.

For a Republican he is awesome. My second post was about you.

I know.

I caved and read the article.

Cliff's notes: Ron Paul's website now has more hits than any other candidate, surpassing Hillary and Obama (he has been declining for the last couple months). Paul also has the most Youtube subscribers of any candidate.

Like it would be really hard to scam up 5600 subscribers per day.

Its so depressing that even among candidates you like the default reaction around here is cynicism. I mean, Paul has zero campaign aparatus so there is no one to gin up the subscribers. Yet, he has the most. Do you honestly believe that the accounts were faked?

Over 8,000 now.

I'm not a huge fan of Ron Paul (other than a deep respect for libertarianism and his pro-rights stance) but this is awesome. The simple fact that someone that has no industry backing can make this much of an impact gives me hope for humanity.
