Right here!
Paul supporters are always complaining that Ron Paul is ignored by the media. Well here's a story. They may not be thrilled with it though.

Apparently Ron Paul is being supported by a SuperPAC which is run by 9/11 Truther Gary Franchi. And he believes in FEMA concentration camps, too.

Of course we should not judge Ron Paul by his supporters.
 
Whaddya know. Conspiracy theorists supporting Ron Paul. That never happens.
 
And this is why Ron Paul will never be elected president. Other candidates ignore his lunatic base because they don't want to alienate them, knowing that many of them will have to vote for somebody else in the general election. But if Paul was ever a threat to be actually nominated, you can be sure that the attack ads would load up on him. And with all the ammunition he has give them, they would smack him down like a pesky fly.
 
Note as well that Franchi's goal is to expose yet another conspiracy:

A Super PAC supporting Paul has pledged to monitor the vote in all the
remaining states, using an army of exit pollsters to fight what it calls results that are "outrageous, unacceptable and patently un-American."

He undoubtedly believes that Ron Paul has won all the primaries, just the way he wins every internet poll.

Trutherlibertopia Rule #1: It is unacceptable to vote for anyone who's name is not Ron Paul.
 
A reporter needs ask Paul, "Do you believe all people are created equal?" I think his answer would either be "yes" or an epic fumble. Rooting for epic fumble.

I would imagine something about people having an equal chance to succeed in the free market without the government interfering, or some such tripe.

It beyond unacceptable, to them it's unfathomable, so the voting must be rigged.

"I can't believe Ron Paul lost the election. Everyone I know on the internet voted for him!"

(And yes, I know that the Pauline Kael "quote" that I'm riffing on is apocryphal.)
 
Ron Paul cozies up with kooks

Oh look, one of Ron's biggest Super Pac's is run by a truther who thinks we are all heading to FEMA Death Camps™

As with many other so-called "independent" Super PACs, which can receive unlimited donations outside the normal rules of campaign finance, the pro-Paul group is operated by people with close ties to the candidate. The group's advisory board members include Penny Langford Freeman, Paul's political director from 1998 to 2007, and Joe Becker, chief legal counsel for Ron Paul 2008.
The leader of the group, its founder, chairman and treasurer, is Gary Franchi, a promoter of conspiracy theories and sophisticated social-media entrepreneur in the resurgent movement known as the Patriots.

Gary Franchi started the Lone Lantern group. I was on their meetup email list for a while. Some of them were into some serious weirdness beyond 9/11 Truth. Chemtrails, all sorts of nonsense.

Other topics we discuss include globalization, preserving our civil liberties, torture, the current illegal wars of aggression, Tax Honesty, the Federal Reserve, the North American Union, the current police state, and the RFID chip.
