The Arizona Daily Star writes about the local Ron Paul Revolution:
Twenty-year-old Rebecca Townsend is good at shattering political stereotypes.
The University of Arizona senior is vehemently against the war in Iraq. And if you get her started about how she thinks the Bush administration has trampled the Constitution, you'll get an earful.
However, she's also a Republican, and a proud one at that.
Her involvement in the party isn't passive. She serves as a local precinct committeewoman, a good spot for up-and-coming party activists.
[...]
His young followers are showing up at meetings and events usually attended mostly by retired folks.
And like Townsend, they're aiming to move into leadership positions and put Paul's libertarian stamp on party practices.
Many say they have never voted, and their anti-establishment views don't blend with those of either major party.
