*** begin quote ***
My advice to Paul is to take direct aim at McCain. Sharpen the differences between the two camps. Show how McCain is a loser against either Clinton or Obama.
Emphasize strongly that the electorate is aiming to pick Clinton or Obama at present (this is very clear!) Then sell yourself as the only Republican who has a chance to beat them by mobilizing both young people and independents and democrats.
Republicans want to win elections, but they have lost their libertarian soul and gained a harmful war-supporting evangelical component. They must be steered away from their instinctive support of people like Huckabee and McCain and toward a more strategic view of who can beat Clinton and Obama. In a sense, go above the heads of the Republican primary voter to the general electorate.
What positions should be emphasized that will resonate with the public? Make every effort to find out, and then focus on no more than three of these issues, such as (1) ending the Iraq War and avoiding other such debacles, (2) putting the economy in order and taking down the horrendous government debt, (3) avoiding the coming crash of Medicare and bringing great medical advancements by freeing up the health care system. I do not know what these issues are, I am guessing, but any successful politician has to find and stress them.

I agree. Hit the point that only Ron Paul offers the American electorate a clear choice on these issues. And, since in Regan’s sage advice that a President can only have three objective and does well to accomplish two, focus is essential.
