Enter Stage Left: The Ron Paul Democrats

For those who are following Ron Paul’s presidential campaign, it is becoming more and more apparent that many of his supporters are people who say “I have never voted Republican in my life but you have my vote, Ron Paul.” The sentiment is echoed all over the place.
