The site lists ALL states and you just click onto your State.

For everyone else, here's the complete list of his status in various states: http://www.constitutionparty.com/ba_stats.phpAlso, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Remember, Ron Paul is a Republican Congressman! My Representative, Jeb Hensarling (R), is getting my vote for the right reasons.However, for Senate, I <i>must</i> vote for Yvonne Schick -- http://yvonneforsenate.com/ -- after what Cornyn pulled (Hutchison's seat isn't up yet).

A halt in the manipulation of the national news media outlets by the two-party system have to stop, blocking the way for independents. Ron Paul makes so much sense, it would seem impossible that if equal media coverage existed...people would choose this plan. At the least, Americans would not be cheated and have the opportunity to hear hall candidates equally on a national level.As far as preventing more poor economic decisions, I would propose education first. Credit card companies should not be allowed to issue a credit card to a young adult (college age) unless they enroll and pass a personal finance class first. This would be a requirement. It is sickening the way these companies target young people and put them so quickly in debt. This would at least ensure the education of more individuals and also slow-down these credit card predators.Lastly, but more importantly...thank you Ron Paul for being what the public wants in a candidate, if they only had the chances to hear you. You are truly a servant in office for the American people.Thanks as well to the other independent candidates that won't take what the big corps, media, and Washington is trying to force-feed us. Thank you for being courageous! More Americans need to hear Ron Paul’s message.

His platform of issues are identical to Ron Paul's. Ron Paul wants to stay in Congress where he feels he can be of most help. That is why, I believe, he endorsed Chuck Baldwin.It is my understanding that you may write in a third-party candidate; however, I believe the candidate has to be an "allowable" write-in candidate for a State.Bob Barr is on the ballot in Texas, the state where I live, so I will be voting for him unless Chuck Baldwin is allowed as a write-in.Does anyone know of a website where one can go and see all the ballot candidates as well as the allowable "write-in candidates" ?I am not afraid that I will be "wasting" my vote which is what alot of my Republican friends have been telling me. I am voting my conscience.The ESTABLISHMENT has only given us two choices...an extreme Leftist socialist and an extreme Rightist Warmonger. And, it is unfortunate that these two parties decided to get together after Ross Perot put a scare into them and changed the rules of presidential elections so that no other party can participate. Unfortunate for THE PEOPLE.I am also NOT voting for any Republican or Democrat that is up for re-election on Congress and am going to vote any other party such as Independent, Libertarian or any other third party candidate.Someone please get back to me regarding election rules on write-in candidates, etc. I think it is important that we all know these rules and I have had a difficult trying to find them online.Thanks...and God speed.

If you had a choice go to war spend trillions on dollars on a no win situation or leave the UN what would you do?2. On the topic of war if we the people placed it into law that anytime there is a war our president goes along with his generals to said war and the president comes home when our solders come home meanwhile the vice president can run things at home while our president is beside his men, would you vote yes or no to put this into law.These are observation for the candidates.3. When is our government going to tell us "this isn't our government anymore" it belongs to the UN and other outside interests?4. When is our government going to tell the people the truth about our rights in this country and just admit to us we have no rights anymore, the constitution has been abolished by UN documents written for the New World Order.We need change but not the change the democratic or republican parties are proposing. It would be nice to see real questions and real answer something we will never have is honestly. Ron Paul and few and I mean few like him represent the real men and women in our government that truthfully stand for something meaningful the rest of them are the Bushes, Obama's, McCains, Regans, and the Clintons all and I mean all pushing towards this New World Order where only the rich and the elite will have privilege all others are just a product to be used and when used up to be discarded. That's the change these people want for you. Socialism, Communism, and of course a "New World Order" under a new government. Sounds great! (sarcasm) To any candidate

1. If you had a choice go to war spend trillions on dollars on a no win situation or leave the UN what would you do?

2. On the topic of war if we the people placed it into law that anytime there is a war our president goes along with his generals to said war and the president comes home when our solders come home meanwhile the vice president can run things at home while our president is beside his men, would you vote yes or no to put this into law.

These are observation for the candidates.

3. When is our government going to tell us “this isn’t our government anymore” it belongs to the UN and other outside interests?

4. When is our government going to tell the people the truth about our rights in this country and just admit to us we have no rights anymore, the constitution has been abolished by UN documents written for the New World Order.

We need change but not the change the democratic or republican parties are proposing. It would be nice to see real questions and real answer something we will never have is honestly. Ron Paul and few and I mean few like him represent the real men and women in our government that truthfully stand for something meaningful the rest of them are the Bushes, Obama’s, McCains, Regans, and the Clintons all and I mean all pushing towards this New World Order where only the rich and the elite will have privilege all others are just a product to be used and when used up to be discarded. That’s the change these people want for you. Socialism, Communism, and of course a “New World Order” under a new government.
