The Revolution is rolling onward, and the elitists cannot stop it

A NY Republican Club Says No To Ron Paul Fund Raising Event

Larry Fester

Ron Paul’s campaign stated on its website that the New York Republican club told the campaign that there wasn’t enough support on its board to allow Ron Paul to host a fund raiser at the club.

Paul’s campaign is looking for another location for the October 12th fund raiser.

The Metropolitan Republican club states on its website that:

“We are a varied and enthusiastic group with the common goal of supporting New York City Republican candidates and ideals. Met Club activities include election campaigns, informational programs, and social events.

Anyone who shares our basic goals and beliefs is welcome to become a member of the Metropolitan Republican Club.”

The clubs facilities are privately owned but the cold shoulder does seem to conflict with its stated policies. Paul activists think NY Republicans should allow all of the candidates to be heard.

Paul, a darling of many rank and file Republicans has been occasionally getting a cold shoulder from some Republican organizations, a possible indication of a divide between party leadership and party membership.

Ron Paul’s campaign has centered on ‘repealing the police state’ ‘securing and policing U.S. borders’ ‘a noninterventionist foreign policy’ which includes opposition to the Iraq war and preventing a war with Iran.

The Republican presidential candidate also proposes to abolish federal income taxes and the Federal Reserve. Paul also opposes what he has described as attempts to erase U.S. borders and form a North American Union.

Ron Paul Raise Millions Again in 3rd Quarter?

Ron Paul is doing it again. After raising $2.4 million in the second quarter, the campaign is indicating that it could raise as much as $2.5-$3 million in the third - or even more.

According to a just issued campaign bulletin, "We have one week left. Our goal is to raise $500,000 online by September 30th. That boost will give us the best fundraising quarter yet, and it will show that our campaign is getting stronger by the day. $500,000 online in seven days will be a challenge. But I know we can make it.

And the release adds, "Last quarter, you helped raise more money for the Ron Paul 2008 campaign than the political pundits thought possible. I assure you that we will surpass our total from last quarter. The question is by how much."

Ron Paul's campaign has defied the pundits of the mainstream press from the beginning. In fact, FMNN had predicted back in August that third quarter funding was going well for: "Ron Paul August Funding Surge?"

FMNN reported then: "Texas congressman Ron Paul’s fund-raising is a smoothly-oiled machine that continues to generate funding in support of his free-market candidacy. Sources close to the campaign believe that August was another good month. ... Time, money and volunteers are pouring into the Ron Paul campaign in a wave of energy and resources.
