I don't think it is very likely for him to get the Republican nomination. If he doesn't, I don't think there will be much reason to run as an independent as he would likely lose that as well. It would be a huge waste of money and an unnecessary defeat.
Is it over then? Of course not. While it would be great if Ron Paul was elected president I think that is secondary. One man can't change everything, even if he is the president. What has happened though is Ron Paul has raised the awareness and activism in this country by leaps and bounds. That is what is important.
By actually speaking on relevant issues instead of making empty promises of prosperity he is getting people interested in the direction we are going. That is the only thing that will change our country. The people have to wake up and get involved. I think that is the real goal of this campaign.
