It’s very simple, actually. A new poll by CBS New shows that Obama leads Ron Paul by a single percentage point, in a theoretical head-to-head contest. Meanwhile, the margin of error is 3 percent, so it’s a statistical tie.
Matt Damon joining forces with Ron Paul would get the attention of lots of young people, who formerly supported Obama but are now 3 years into their rude awakening.
I can’t imagine Matt Damon parroting Ron Paul’s viewpoints, as a condition of him joining the ticket. Rather, I can see him saying, “I support Ron Paul on X, Y and Z, but not A, B and C. Since “Politics is the art of the possible”, I will join the ticket on this basis.
I hate to say this, but the only reason Ron Paul wins a head to head poll with the president is because people don't like the president and Ron Paul has an "R" next to his name.
And I don't want Matt Damon anywhere near Ron Paul.
