As a presidential election looms in the near future, and Republicans and Democrats tell their stories to the nation’s voters, there is one block of voters that is hard to define. One that is apparently listening to Ron Paul, the Republican from Texas who seems to share a common message with disenfranchised Republicans. Many, who felt betrayed or abandoned by the Republican Party, now registered as Independents, are being sought by both parties for the coming election.
Ron Paul, considered one of the most anti-government candidates to ever walk in the primary field, is aiming at those voters, hoping to win them back into the fold. As he continues to preach his message of less government and responsible spending, he echoes the message of many middle-income wage earners.
Voters have said they left the Republican party because they have forgotten about this class of the American public. Saying the GOP is out of touch with the working class, they are leaning more towards the Democratic message being delivered by the numerous candidates. Paul continues to blame his fellow Republicans in the House of Representatives and those in the Senate for allowing government to run roughshod over the rights of the average citizen.
Paul’s campaign has repeatedly noted that even if the candidate cannot rise above his two percent showings in national polls, as reported by www.usaelectionpolls.com, getting out his message about returning more power to the people is an important strategy in his presidential campaign. Many voters in the grass roots efforts are apparently in agreement.
