		<description><![CDATA[I have not been involved with Republican politics for very long, so take this report for what it's worth.

When I first started meeting Republicans in this area, Ron Paul was regarded as something of an absurd anomaly. If they didn't come right out and laugh at him or insult him, it was only because they knew there were Ron Paul supporters in the room and they were trying to be polite.

In the last couple of weeks, that attitude has changed somewhat. It still seems to be a widely held opinion that Ron Paul's foreign policy is either "crazy" or "scary". But now, when people say Ron Paul's name (which they do surprisingly often) they follow it up with, "there are a lot of things I like about Ron Paul." Or "He really seems to understand our economic problems." Or, even more interestingly (and I've heard this sentiment multiple times), "I may even have to vote for Ron Paul."

I'm not trying to suggest that the whole GOP is singing Ron Paul's praises. It isn't. But his message is starting to get through. Progress is being made. And in a race where most Republicans dislike all of their options and can't settle on a candidate, there may just be hope for Ron Paul after all.]]></description>

I'm leaving for New Hampshire tomorrow, as part of <a href="http://www.vegangirl.com/operation-live-free-or-die.html">Operation Live Free or Die</a>, to help win the first presidential primary for Ron Paul.  Staying healthy while traveling for 9 days is a challenge under any circumstances.  A vegan health nut staying healthy in the midst of republicans and libertarians is near impossible.  I've only ever done this successfully for a couple of days, but I'm convinced it can be done longer term with a little preparation.

I will need to bring snacks and supplements that require no preparation, pack up small, and can make it through airport security.    Here is what I have come up with for my trip.]]></description>

But if you look at the history of the Republican Party it is supposed to stand for smaller government, lower taxes, and personal responsibility.  That may or may not be your idea of good government, but it certainly is not an evil point of view.]]></description>

Does anything compare to the ingenuity, enthusiasm, and hard work that Ron Paul has inspired in his supporters?  Every time I think the grassroots has had its grandest hour, they go and do something even more crazy and awe-inspiring.  Initially, it was mostly a whole lot of clever videos, songs, and blog posts about Ron Paul.  Supporters, including myself, couldn't stop seeking out online media to learn more about the candidate and his chances of winning.  Lately, the effort has shifted into massive real world projects that would never be remotely possible for supporters of any other candidate to achieve  (although they do occasionally try).  Here is a list, in no particular order, of efforts that have made my jaw drop.  In many cases, I believed the goal was set too high and failure was certain, but I have been proven wrong every time.]]></description>
