Ron Paul supporter spotted in Berkeley
Lower-tier GOP presidentail candidate Ron Paul has support all around, as I saw this week in Berkeley. This gentleman was walking up and down Telegraph with his sign.
I have no comment on Ron Paul, but his supporters seem to be particularly energetic around the net.
Its kind of strange, he seems to have the most support of the GOP members among the tech community. Or else he’s becoming more visible — I’ve seen him mentioned a few times on Ars Technica and Slashdot the past few days.

I’d probably vote for him first, among declared candidates.

He’s a little too whacky for my tastes. Questioning authority is great, but I think he takes it a little too far.

It’s sad that he’s the only Republican running who actually sticks to his conservative principles. The rest of the politicians are too busy trying to tell you what they think you want to hear. I think most of Ron Paul’s support comes from people who appreciate his honesty and the fact that he seems to really care about the future of America above his own political career. That may explain why Libertarians aren’t the only ones supporting him.
