Ron Paul: Not ready to endorse Romney

In an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer, Republican Rep. Ron Paul discussed Mitt Romney and the Republican National Convention.

Paul admitted that Mitt Romney has the delegates to win the nomination but said he "doesn't have the control of the hearts and the minds of the people." When asked if he's ready to follow in his son Sen. Rand Paul's footsteps and endorse Romney, Paul replied "no way."

    Who or what does Ron Paul like? Deep down inside, something he cannot face, is Ron Paul discriminatory?

      Discrimination has a bad rap. Scripture commands believers to "rightly discriminate" between good and evil. Ron Paul has been the top discriminator between constitutional and unconstitutional law. Romney, on the other hand, appears to promote policy according to its potential popularity as opposed to its constitutionality.

    No Way! Ron Paul is too honest to go along with this. The truth will come out.
