RonPaul.com was set up by grassroots supporters during Ron Paul’s 2008 presidential campaign and quickly grew into one of the largest and most comprehensive sources of information about Ron Paul and his ideas.

Check out these different parts of RonPaul.com:

More about RonPaul.com…

  • RonPaul.com is all about Ron Paul and the Ron Paul Revolution.

    RonPaul.com is a unique resource reporting exclusively on everything related to Ron Paul. The website attracts thousands of visitors each month, including a large percentage of mainstream and non-grassroots individuals who are looking for more information about Ron Paul and the Ron Paul Revolution.

  • RonPaul.com is growing more popular each and every day.

    RonPaul.com slowly climbed from the #21 “Ron Paul” site on Google (May 2008) to the #1 ranked Ron Paul site in all major search engines. While we would certainly like to credit our hard work and ingenuity for this stellar rise, we have identified a much more sobering cause: many other sites dedicated exclusively to Ron Paul dropped out after 2008, or diversified to the point where Ron Paul related reporting has shrunk to no more than 10% or 15% of their content. Clearly, more options will become available again if and when Ron Paul announces his 2012 campaign. We’d still welcome some friendly competition until then, so if you’ve been thinking about starting your own Ron Paul site, please give it a try!

  • RonPaul.com is a non-profit effort.

    RonPaul.com is a work of love created in our spare time. There are no third party ads on this site, and sales from t-shirts and bumper stickers cover only a small part of our expenses. We don’t even own the RonPaul.com domain name, so this would be one terrible business venture! But it’s most definitely worth it, and maybe we can make the site self-funding one day. If you want to support us, buy a shirt.

What RonPaul.com is NOT…

  • RonPaul.com is not an official Ron Paul website. Ron Paul was not informed of our launch and he has nothing to do with it in any way. We’re not even sure if he likes our site as he tends to refer people to RonPaul.org which is a beautiful site but hasn’t been updated in ages. ;)
  • RonPaul.com is run by grassroots supporters, but it is not a “grassroots only” site. Our intention is to be the exact opposite: one of the first Ron Paul websites that many potential supporters will find during their online research.
  • RonPaul.com is not intended to be a centralized effort. Everyone is welcome to contribute. Simply look around the site and see what is needed or missing, then get to work and give it your best shot and let us know about it. (More details below)

Things you probably didn’t know…

RonPaul.com is about Ron Paul and not about the grassroots supporters who maintain this website, so we try to stay in the background as much as possible and let the message of freedom speak for itself. But in case you’re wondering, here are a few things you probably didn’t know about us:

RonPaul.com and its associated accounts at Youtube, Twitter, Facebook, etc. are maintained by three archetypal Ron Paul grassroots supporters: we spend too much time in our basements and probably don’t get enough sleep – or sunlight for that matter. We’ve been (passive) Ron Paul supporters since the late 1990s but only became active and energized during the 2008 campaign. Two of us moved to Panama in 2008 and will probably stay there until there is a Paul in the White House. In this age of the Internet we feel that we are a living refutation of the notion that a) standing up for your freedoms and b) seeking adventure abroad are mutually exclusive.

Join RonPaul.com as a Volunteer

There are different ways to work with RonPaul.com, but we are very selective (and seclusive) so don’t be disappointed if you don’t hear back from us immediately.

  • Writers & Bloggers

    If you feel you can do better than we are with daily posts, articles, etc., tell us what you would do, why you want to get involved, and why you won’t quit after a month or two. Provide writing samples and any other details you can think of.

  • Graphic Designers

    We’re looking for one or two amazing graphic designers who don’t just know how to design but who can also come up with great ideas on a daily basis. Our goal is to keep creating new t-shirts and bumper stickers. (If you’re really good and stay with us for the long run we’ll give you a share of the revenue.)

    We could also make good use of a new logo and a new header… something with colors and flash. Many people think our current header looks cool, but others feel it’s a bit outdated.

  • Cartoonist

    A few weeks ago we had some funny ideas for cartoons but ended up doing nothing in that regard for two reasons: 1) we’re not sure they’re really as funny as we think they are, and 2) we can’t draw. We’re looking for a volunteer cartoonist to implement our ideas and for 10 or so people to provide their unabashed feedback on unpublished cartoons to help us decide whether to stick them to the front page or to our basement walls.

  • Song Writers, Bands

    We’ve had an idea for a “Ron Paul Revolution” jingle that could be used for Youtube videos etc., but we have neither the time nor the expertise to get it produced. Help us and get famous. Well, kind of.

  • Speak Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Australian?

    If you speak any languages other than English and have a lot of time on your hands, help us translate Ron Paul’s speeches and interviews to those other languages.

  • Everyone!
