ACU is the American Conservative Union and CPAC is the Conservative Political Action Conference. CPAC is the nation's largest gathering of conservatives annually, and it is the ACU's largest conference.
Now that we know what ACU and CPAC are I thought it would be worth listing the organization's founding principles from its website.
After reading through all of the principles I was left with only one conclusion, that Ron Paul was the only speaker and candidate there who directly represents all of the principles.
The following paragraph was taken from mises.org and written by James Ostowski. The article can be found at http://mises.org/daily/895/republica...big-government
Contrary to popular myth, every Republican president since and including Herbert Hoover has increased the federal government's size, scope, or power--and usually all three. Over the last one hundred years, of the five presidents who presided over the largest domestic spending increases, four were Republicans. Include regulations and foreign policy, as well as budgets approved by a Republican Congress, and a picture begins to emerge of the Republican Party as a reliable engine of government growth (mises.org).
Thus, it is plain to see why Ron Paul would not be welcomed by the party. The party does not wish to have a true Republican who has dedicated his life to defending the Constitution and always votes as a fiscal conservative. Furthermore, Paul is most likely the only member of Congress who has never compromised his principles, which are strictly in alliance with the Constitution. This is why he is referred to as the champion of the Constitution. I can't think of a single other potential candidate who has followed all of the principles that ACU supposedly follows. Even most of the freshman Tea Party candidates have already compromised their supposed principles; only eight of the forty plus have so far held true to their promise.
I doubt many people have read this far so I won't waste anymore time. I can't open peoples eyes necessarily but hopefully the facts will, which is why I have referenced my material. It is not difficult to do some research and learn how members of our government have voted, nor is it hard to learn how a president led the country. History tells us that every president has done almost entirely the opposite of the rhetoric they speak on the campaign trail. For some reason once people find themselves entrusted with power they no of nothing else to do but to turn on the very people that put them in power. One man has not done that his entire career and most likely he still won't be found worthy by the establishment to be on the Republican ticket. If her were given the chance, and the conservative media truly supported him, then there's no doubt in my mind he would win the office of President.
