Key California Republican Group Endorses Ron Paul

California Republicans Endorse Paul
Key California Republican Group Endorses Ron Paul

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CONTACT: Jesse Benton
May 22, 2007 202-246-6363

ARLINGTON, VA – The United Republicans of California (UROC) have unanimously endorsed Congressman Ron Paul for president of the United States. UROC, formed in 1963 to support Barry Goldwater, represents the traditional conservative wing of the California Republican Party.

"The unanimous endorsement from the United Republicans of California proves what the campaign has been saying all along," said campaign chairman Kent Snyder. "Ron Paul is the only true conservative and real Republican in the race."

In their official statement endorsing Dr. Paul, UROC called him "the leading advocate for freedom in our nation's capital" and recognized that:

Ron Paul's voting record demonstrates that he has voted against:
  • raising taxes;
  • unbalanced budgets;
  • a federal restriction on gun ownership;
  • raising congressional pay; or
  • increasing the power of the executive branch.


His voting record demonstrates further that he voted against:
  • the USA Patriot Act;
  • regulating the Internet; and
  • the war in Iraq.


Dr. Paul is the only candidate with a record that matches the UROC's conservative platform.

"Whether the issue is life, the Second Amendment, foreign policy, spending or taxes, Ron Paul is the only traditional conservative candidate," continued Snyder. "Traditional conservatives across the country should support Ron Paul for president."

Poor Ol' Barry Goldwater must be rolling in his grave in anguish and disgust.

Paradigm

As long as people keep believing in the right/left paradigm, they will continue to unaware of what is going on.

Here is a good article on Ron although I disagree that putting us off the constitution and onto world government is some sort of a conspiracy -- it's being done in the open now. Now the Mexican gov't is demanding that Bush help them fix their economy with money from us! The nerve of them! Just proves they already consider themselves part of the USA.

Hey Lib, I thought you were going to stop campaigning here? You like Ron Paul, fine. Might I suggest you keep it to one thread at a time?

I am a Republican and I can't remember the last time anyone considered the United Republicans of California to be a key Republican Group. Besides that Ron Paul has admitted that he is not a Republican but instead is a Libertarian running as a Republican because he could not afford to run as a Libertarian. To me running as a Republican is already starting out under false colors which makes me wary of him and any so called Republican group that would endorse him.
