Ron Paul To Appear At MSU Monday – WLNS
Texas representative Ron Paul will be in Michigan soon. Paul is expected to be on MSU’s campus to speak with students on Monday.
Though the latest polls show he is in third place in the GOP race, one group of students is making sure everyone knows their candidate is coming to town.
Ron Paul flyers are everywhere on MSU’s campus and one group would have it no other way.
It took roughly 1000 signatures from the MSU Youth for Ron Paul chapter to bring the Texas representative to campus and now that he is on his way they say students will be able to see his campaign strategy first hand.
“If you read one of his newsletters from 1988, it looks like it was written yesterday, he is consistent, he is honest. Young people are attracted to that, all people are attracted to that,” said Ethan Davis, MSU Youth for Ron Paul chairman.
It’s not just about this presidential campaign for these volunteers, it’s about principle. @
“It’s a campaign of ideas and we feel it’s important to spread these ideas around campus, because a lot of people don’t understand liberty, a lot of people don’t understand what a sound currency is,” said C.J. Galdes, MSU Youth for Ron Paul member.
The fact remains, most polls have Paul running third, about 20 points behind both Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum in Michigan. But these supporters say that doesn’t matter. @
“We are going to continue to support Ron Paul even if he doesn’t win the republican nomination, because it’s about a lot more than Ron Paul, it’s about the ideas,” said Galdes.
While MSU Youth for Ron Paul realizes it’s a long shot, they say there is still hope.
Ron Paul is scheduled to speak at MSU’s auditorium on Monday February 27 at 4p.m.
