After serving almost 24 years in the U.S. House of Representatives, Congressman Ron Paul told The Facts this morning he will not be seeking another term for the District 14 seat.

Continue Reading
Paul, 75, will instead focus on his quest for the presidency in 2012.

“I felt it was better that I concentrate on one election,” Paul said. “It’s about that time when I should change tactics.”

His announcement will give enough time for anyone with aspirations for his seat to think about running, he said. Paul didn’t want to wait for filing in the 2012 primary to let people know he wasn’t seeking reelection.

“I didn’t want to hold off until in December,” he said. “I thought it shouldn’t be any later than now.”

Maybe he knows it a now or never for the US,if he doesn't get in and repeal some EOs it's all over.

I wish him well and if he's elected I would like to see his opt out idea go mainstream.

Not sure how the politics are in his area, but doesn't he have to do virtually no campaigning to secure reelection?

Think about it - his position is not all that secure as there is always someone being sponsored to un-seat him because of his rightegous attacks on the Fed. The Gay Old Perverts would like nothing more than to see him go.

He sold his home because he built a new one about an hour away.

I was reading that he is going all in so to speak for the presidency instead of trying to run two campaigns at once.

Said further that he caught a lot of rightful criticism for doing that last time.

AJ needs to shut the F up and use his ears. He is doing some good but that man cannot let a thought pass without interrupting. That's just rude.
