Here’s a shocker: an online poll at www.ronpaul.com that asks if Texas Republican Rep. Ron Paul should run for president again in 2012 shows an overwhelming majority believe he should.

Some 93% of the nearly 3,000 voters said he should run in 2012, while 3% said he shouldn’t and 1% said they don’t know. Online polls are unscientific and it’s no surprise that visitors to a grassroots Web site in support of the Texas Republican’s political agenda favor him running again.

Paul scored few votes in 2008, but his bid made him a household name and his warnings about the state of the U.S. economy have proved prescient at times.

If Paul were to run, he would turn 77 in August 2012—five years older than Arizona GOP Sen. John McCain was in the 2008 campaign where his age was an issue.

But Paul may be considering it. He will speak Nov. 9 in South Carolina (a key primary state) at an event to discuss the “future of individual liberty and the importance of the U.S. Constitution.” And the following week he will travel to Iowa for appearances in Ames and Des Moines.
