“We will continue to take
leadership positions, win delegates, and carry a strong message to the
Republican National Convention that Liberty is the way of the future.” – Ron
Paul
LAKE JACKSON, Texas – 2012 Republican
Presidential candidate Ron Paul issued the following statement to supporters
and the general public concerning the continuation of his historic bid for the
GOP nomination.
The statement tees up forthcoming
information the campaign will release concerning its fruitful
delegate-attainment strategy still occurring at delegate-selection events such
as state conventions ahead of the Republican National Convention in Tampa.
Below please find comments from
Congressman Paul:
“As I reflect on our 2012 Presidential
campaign, I am humbled by the supporters who have worked so hard and sacrificed
so much. And I am so proud of what we
have accomplished. We will not stop
until we have restored what once made America the greatest country in human
history.
“This campaign fought hard and won
electoral success that the talking heads and pundits never thought
possible. But, this campaign is also
about more than just the 2012 election.
It has been part of a quest I began 40 years ago and that so many have
joined. It is about the campaign for
Liberty, which has taken a tremendous leap forward in this election and will
continue to grow stronger in the future until we finally win.
“Our campaign will continue to work in
the state convention process. We will
continue to take leadership positions, win delegates, and carry a strong
message to the Republican National Convention that Liberty is the way of the
future.
“Moving forward, however, we will no
longer spend resources campaigning in primaries in states that have not yet
voted. Doing so with any hope of success
would take many tens of millions of dollars we simply do not have. I encourage all supporters of Liberty to make
sure you get to the polls and make your voices heard, particularly in the
local, state, and Congressional elections, where so many defenders of Freedom
are fighting and need your support.
“I hope all supporters of Liberty will
remain deeply involved – become delegates, win office, and take leadership
positions. I will be right there with you. In the coming days, my campaign leadership
will lay out to you our delegate strategy and what you can do to help, so
please stay tuned.
For Liberty,
Ron Paul.”
