(Video) Ron Paul Delegate from Marion Talks Re-Election, Republican National Convention and Local Races

YouTube user sibzianna recently posted a video of Marion's Linn County Supervisor Brent Oleson speaking at a Linn County GOP meeting.

During the short clip Oleson speaks to his role as a delegate in the Republican National Convention, Ron Paul and local elections, including his.

"We don't always all agree on various issues," he said. "We all need to pull together to elect or our Republican nominee [for president] and that ticket in November — all the way to local candidates."

He also mentioned a recent survey that put his approval ratings at 72 percent, and said he has raised $50,000. He said this may be why he's currently running unopposed.

"I am very excited about that," he said.  "I think that has something to do with the fact that the Democrats won't put up someone against me."

Democrats have until August 29 to nominate a candidate.

The user who uploaded of the video had this to say about the meeting:

So, I was at our central committee [meeting] last night and it was like a disgusting [Mitt] Romney love-fest, but I talked to one of our delegates to the [Republican] National Convention and planted a liberty seed. I told him that I believed in miracles and I hoped that he and the others do what's right at the convention and pick Ron Paul. The Republican Party is dying and the only way to pump "life" back into the dying party is to elect the doctor at the convention. 

Brent is only one person, but I know if he had others he could ban up with that he would "do what has to be done" and we all know what has to be done!
