Every President of the United States has taken that oath when they enter office. George W. Bush may be the only one to ever actually accomplish the task.

No man or woman can be President of the United States

No man or woman can be President of the United States

I'm going to try this again since my first attempt is not going over as smoothly as hoped. Perhaps out of excitement I put together my thoughts and words in a way that makes them unclear to the reader.

According to the U.S. Constitution, there cannot be a President of the United States.

Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5:
No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

Ron Paul can't be POTUS. Hillary Clinton can't be POTUS. Mike Huckabee can't be POTUS. John McCain can't be POTUS. Barack Obama can't be POTUS.

The Chicken Noodle Soup Revolution

It could be said with reasonable accuracy that Ron Paul entered the 2008 presidential contest with 0% among Republicans, nationally. He's now sitting between 4% and 25% regionally, nationwide, depending on where you sit.

From a business perspective, given all that has been overcome in terms of censorship and pure hatred for the product, Ron Paul 2008 has been a resounding success.

Imagine starting up your own small chicken noodle soup company. Before you have even sold your first batch, dozens of websites have sprung up declaring your chicken soup to be the worst soup on the planet. Everywhere you go to try to advertise your new chicken noodle soup company, haters are there to stain your name even though you have done nothing to them and they haven't even tried your soup.

"This soup is racist because it says white and dark meat on the label!"

"This soup is evil because it says 'Incorporated' and is sold for profit!"

"Look at the guy he just sold a bowl of soup to. He's crazy! You can't buy soup from that vendor because he hangs around crazy people!"

Roberto Clemente: Not quite a God, not just a man

Roberto Clemente - Most of us have had a hero or two at some point in our life. Some heroes act merely as temporary inspirations in our lives. Other heroes achieve a more permanent "Godly" status. Many perceived heroes turn out to be not so heroic after all. ...

Roberto Clemente took personal pride in what he did and he strove to make skin color irrelevant. Look again at how Clemente went out in this life. Can you doubt his sense of individual responsibility? He was just one man yet was on his way to attempt to do what entire governments either will not or cannot do. Clemente never did get to live in a free society. He faced economical and racial adversity yet, according to what history says, accomplished more in his short lifetime than most of us can ever hope to.

Hoosiers should bring back Mike Davis

Indiana made a mistake in letting Mike Davis go

Given the recent re-enlightenment of how Kelvin Sampson snares the superstar players it leaves this lifelong Hoosier fan wishing for the days of old.

By "wishing for the days of old" I do not mean that I wish for the return of Bob Knight. While I still regard Knight as a coaching legend I have come to realize that he is a punk. And I say that with all due respect, Sir Knight.

Sampson cheats to win. Knight beats to win.

Yes, I know that Bob is retired now.

Mike Davis? He doesn't cheat or beat and you cannot say that he doesn't win. Davis was 115-79 at Indiana and had a respectable 55-41 Big Ten record.

I am not the only Hoosiers fan who recognizes the 2002 NCAA Tournament as the highlight of the modern IU era. That wonderful tourney run was largely due to the coaching skills of Mike Davis.

Will Ron Paul hold his home court?

Home Court Advantage for Paul?

Texas and Pennsylvania may stand in the way of a John McCain nomination

The three largest remaining Republican primary/caucus states are Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Those three states account for 302 of the 940 or so remaining delegates.

John McCain needs over 400 delegates to clinch the Republican nomination. He may pick up another 100 from D.C., Virginia and Maryland. We'll find that out soon enough. Even with a huge gain tomorrow, McCain has his work cut out for him if he hopes to roll into Saint Paul with the nomination secured.

Ron Paul did not drop out of the race

Paul hangs with the "big boys" in Alaska, Montana, North Dakota and Minnesota


Ron Paul wins Alaska! Wait, no he didn't. In fact, Ron Paul did not win any states on Super Tuesday. Surely his detractors are tickled by the lack of victories. Despite the dominance of pro-war Republicans in the caucuses and primaries, Paul actually did quite well in a number of states. More...

Ron Paul Super Tuesday Preview

How will Paul do on Super Tuesday?

Ron Paul wins Alaska caucus! Ron Paul outpaces rivals in North Dakota, Minnesota and Colorado! Paul pulls 15% in California! Montana Republicans choose Paul. Romney concedes defeat to Paul in West Virginia.

OK, just practicin'. What can I say? I'm excited for the possibilities of Super Tuesday in regards to the Ron Paul Revolution. I state firmly that his current 4% national polling numbers will be proven very inaccurate.

My head is not totally in the clouds though. If even one of the above headlines were to come true I'd be very pleased. With second-place finishes in Maine, Nevada and Louisiana to date, I do not expect Ron Paul to emerge as the clear frontrunner after the Super Tuesday primaries and caucuses.

Paul will likely pull single-digits in a number of states, maybe even a dozen of 'em. More...

Is Barack Obama aligning himself with Ron Paul?

In the past few days I've seen Barry Obama clarify his support for the decriminalization of marijuana as well as be attributed to this beauty: "I don't want to just end the war, I want to end the mind-set that got us into war in the first place." Sounds like Ron Paul to me.
