Republican Texas Congressman and two-time Presidential candidate Ron Paul will appear in two key Primaries states: South Carolina and Iowa. Both CNN and the Los Angeles Times are speculating a possible Presidential bid.
Throughout the 2008 Presidential election, many young Republicans and Independents were energized and were given a "cure for apathy" when Republican Representative Ron Paul made a bid for the Republican nomination. In the 2007-2008 campaign, Dr. Paul raised $6 million in one day, while always consistently winning every phone-poll after a debate.
Now,
CNN and the
Los Angeles Times are making speculations that the author of "The Revolution: A Manifesto" and "End the Fed" will throw in his hat for the 2012 Republican nomination and possibly face President Barack Obama.
On November 9, the OBGYN is set to deliver a speech at the University of South Carolina about the “future of liberty and the importance of the US Constitution.” One week later, the creator of HR 1207, which is a House bill to audit the Federal Reserve, will speak in Iowa, one of the most pivotal states during the primaries.
CNN asked the question, “Will Ron Paul give it another go in 2012?” Last year’s South Carolina primary saw Ron Paul in fifth place, defeating former Mayor of New York City Rudy Giuliani.
Paul’s appearance was organized by three different groups: Young Americans for Liberty, University of South Carolina Honors College and a student group of Paul supporters.
