I'm tired of having the 'top tier' shoved down my throat. I think if we stick together we'll win.

This election is unique in many ways, one of which is that the grass roots finally has within their ability to nominate the candidate of their choice without the need to rely on organizations such as yourself. My hope is that individuals pay close attention to the actions of committees this election cycle as many are becoming arrogant enough to show their hand as to their real agendas. I am very disappointed by your decision but I am glad that the grass roots are rising up in their own right to finally take back control of their destiny. I will support, promote and vote for Ambassador Alan Keyes with or without your approval. In this election I *can* make a difference.

Post who left Ron Paul out of the results, even though he won 3rd? Why would they do that. God bless all the candidates that are truly preserving our Christian values. I don't know who I'm voting for yet, but I like Huckabee. Ron Paul is a good candidate too, but why did the NY Post leave him out. If I campaigned hard for president and I got 3rd on the poll, I'd be pretty angry if someone ignored my hard work and the people who are supporting me. The after results were posted by the N.Y.

However, I have been devastated to learn that many of my brothers and sisters in Christ have bought into it. The Presidential election is NOT a popularity contest, although that's what it has become. My eyes are open to that now. Get on your knees and ask God to show you his will and his way for our nation before it's too late. It is time to wake up. Before you go to the ballot, you owe it to yourself, your God, and your country to learn what we are really voting for. It is reprehensible to vote for anyone based on their chances to win. We should each vote our conscience and conviction. And that means doing a little leg work, researching each candidate's background. Have they practiced what they preach? Go to <a href="http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/facts/funddocs/consteng.htm" rel="nofollow">http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/facts/funddocs/consteng.htm</a> and print out your own copy of the constitution and all amendments. You may be surprised by what you read. It is very easy to read and understand, and explicitly details the role of each branch of Govt. That is what our founding fathers intended - for 'we the people' to understand. They knew from experience what the dangers in Govt are and they handed us a clear map to success. But it is up to us to follow it. I will be voting for Ron Paul, and I am grateful for his stand for our Constitution, which is for our protection. If it weren't for Dr. Paul I never would have known that I needed a history lesson, as do most Americans. The first thing I googled is "federal reserve private bank". Did you know that "the fed" is NOT in any way controlled by the Govt. It IS a private bank. It is outright illegal and it says so right in the Constitution. Well, don't believe me, or anyone else....

I do not make those statements lightly. As of late, I only follow Ron Paul, and do so closely. The numbers have switched before my very eyes. I have heard the lies with my own ears. Ron Paul has won something like the last 5 debates polls. He also won at least 17 out of 35 straw polls, but you will not hear that on tv.
