On the left hand sidebar, and as one of the rotating graphics we have above the Daily Update, you’ll see the question, “Who is Ron Paul?” Clicking on that will take you to our biographical section, where you’ll find that Representative Ron Paul, currently serving his tenth term in the U.S. House of Representatives, has never voted to raise taxes, restrict gun ownership, or pass an unbalanced budget. Not only does Ron Paul believe that the federal government should restrict its spending to fit constitutional limits, he actually gives a portion of his congressional office budget back to the United States Treasury every year.

Ron Paul is also an OB/GYN who has delivered more than 4,000 babies.  His wife Carol gives you a more personal look at their lives in her article, "The American Dream."

Be sure to check out our “Learn” section in the series of tabs we have under the Ron Paul banner. There you will again find the bio., but you will also find a section labeled “Dr. Paul’s Writings,” an ever-expanding collection of Ron Paul’s writings and speeches.

Our “On the Issues” section will fill you in on Dr. Paul’s stances, giving you his views on health care, education, border security, the burdensome inflation tax (which you may not even be aware you pay), the second amendment, national defense, and many others.

Under our “Press/Media” tab, you can find our press releases, video network, and You Tube channel.   

Also be sure to check out our “Daily Dose” blog for news, stories, and commentary.

Paul Supporters a "Super-Majority" at Nevada GOP Convention

From the Reno Gazette-Journal:

"After a super-majority of Ron Paul supporters captured control of the Republican state convention Saturday, state party officials abruptly canceled the event without electing delegates to the national convention.

"Early in the day, state delegates supporting Paul's continued pursuit of the Republican nomination voted through a rules change that forced the state party to abandon its preset ballot of potential national convention delegates and open up the race to the rest of the state delegates.

"The vote followed a rousing speech by Paul of Texas, who said his presidential campaign will continue as long as he has support.

"But as the convention continued into the evening, chairman Bob Beers said the party's contract for the hall at the Peppermill Resort Casino had expired and the event would be rescheduled."
