I have developed a theory about Ron Paul. He has some good ideas and talks a good game, but he really doesn't want to be president.

If he really wanted to be president why doesn't he play the game like the rest do and work to raise the big money so he can compete in the elections? I know he is trying to prove a point and not take any special interest money and things like that, but it seems to me he could do more good if he played the game, got elected then could work on actually bringing some of his plans to fruition. Instead he makes a little noise, comes up with some great sound bites and then disappears. I think a lot of people look at him like that crazy old uncle who shows up every few years, has a million ideas (some of which are actually really good) then he disappears for a while again.
