Ron Paul Endorses Chuck Baldwin for President

Ron Paul has officially endorsed Constitution Party presidential candidate Chuck Baldwin. (He also gets in a nice dig against Libertarian Party candidate Bob Barr, who snubbed Paul at a recent press conference.)

From the Campaign for Liberty web site:

The Libertarian Party Candidate admonished me for "remaining neutral" in the presidential race and not stating whom I will vote for in November. It's true; I have done exactly that due to my respect and friendship and support from both the Constitution and Libertarian Party members. I remain a lifetime member of the Libertarian Party and I'm a ten-term Republican Congressman. It is not against the law to participate in more then one political party. Chuck Baldwin has been a friend and was an active supporter in the presidential campaign.

I continue to wish the Libertarian and Constitution Parties well. The more votes they get, the better. I have attended Libertarian Party conventions frequently over the years.

In some states, one can be on the ballots of two parties, as they can in New York. This is good and attacks the monopoly control of politics by Republicans and Democrats. We need more states to permit this option. This will be a good project for the Campaign for Liberty, along with the alliance we are building to change the process.

I've thought about the unsolicited advice from the Libertarian Party candidate, and he has convinced me to reject my neutral stance in the November election. I'm supporting Chuck Baldwin, the Constitution Party candidate.

I hope others will join Dr. Paul in sending a message to the Washington elite this November that freedom-loving Americans are sick and tired of the status quo. The two-party stranglehold on the political process must end.
