More Strippers for Ron Paul
August 20th, 2007 by Steve
liviathan slayer noted that there is at least one stripper for Ron Paul. From Hustle and Cash Flow:
I just changed my voter registration from Indepedent to Republican so I can vote for Ron Paul in the primaries. [snip]
Since my main interest in politics these days is financial, I’m a fan of Ron Paul. I believe he would be good for the economy and (most importantly) for my wallet. [snip]
If Ron Paul gets elected I will be able to put off my plan of eventually fleeing to Malta for at least four years. That’s a chance worth taking, in my estimation.
I’ve got a very close friend who is a former stripper (who still looks hot enough to make a lot of money at it, but I guess she’s now happy with the amount she has in the bank) who is also very supportive of Dr. Paul, although some of the reasons differ: Stripper one talks about her wallet; stripper two can’t complete a phone call without telling me about her new Prada or Gucci or whatever handbag.
More seriously, Hustle and Cash Flow seems to be concerned about fiscal issues. Lady Liberty is too, but is perhaps more concerned with social and foreign policy. As long as they are both on the team I described a couple of days ago:
I talked with as many Paul supporters as I could during the lunch break. There were people there of every description: A medical doctor, a guy wearing a peace sign necklace, an attorney, a girl in hippy attire, four or five political consultant types, a couple of John Birchers, a homeschooling mom, a homeshooling grandparent, a writer, a 9/11 Truther, an economics professor, dozens of people you probably wouldn’t pay attention to if you passed them on the street, a stay-at-home mom, a retired teacher, a few dozen fairly typical college students (most of whom I already knew), a handful of older people who voted for Goldwater, a few people who will cast their first presidential primary vote for Ron Paul, people with piercings and tattoos, people who looked like they were once Homecoming Queens or Kings, people I knew from the Riley tax campaign, people I knew from Birmingham City Council and mayoral campaigns, Fair Taxers, Flat Taxers, no taxers, anarchists, Republicans, Libertarians, independents, at least one Democrat, a Baptist preacher, an atheist. [snip]
However, this is about a movement. A movement of an eclectic bunch of people who are very serious about freedom. This is the first time I’ve seen these groups of people work so well together to produce a tangible political result.
As the old-timers and political consultant types discussed the issue, there seemed to be almost universal agreement: No matter how Ron Paul does in the presidential election, there is a new movement afoot. Like the Goldwater era, this movement alone can transform the entire political landscape for an entire generation, or even more.
I’ll be in Las Vegas this weekend for a board meeting. As a campaign professional, perhaps I can talk my wife into letting me do some informal polling (I double-checked the spelling on that one) at the local strip clubs.
On a more serious note, I have campaigned inside of strip clubs before and found the level of political insight and even money raised (at the classier places, at least) fairly significant. Sex sells (even in politics), and I was the key person (aside from the candidate) behind this campaign. However, I understand that campaigns (especially Republican ones) require some distance from certain issues. If you are a dancer, club owner, security, etc. and wish to help legally bundle some money to the Ron Paul campaign, let me know. My e-mail is on the “About” page.

Another reason Ron Paul is so popular among strippers is his Tax Free Tips Act. Many of my friends, and yes, “co-workers,” in the business, are huge Ron Paul supporters. One woman I know supports Ron Paul because she wants a return to the gold standard. These are very thoughtful and intelligent women, who choose to make their living in an unorthodox manner. It is not very surprising that individuals working in an industry as prone to government interference as our own would turn to Dr. Paul.
