Ron Paul has filed a complaint with the World Intellectual Property Organization against the proprietors of RonPaul.com and RonPaul.org, according to a blog post on their site on Friday.
The authors of RonPaul.com see the move as the ultimate betrayal from a politician who, more than many others, depended on an astounding level of grassroots support on the Internet in order to keep his longshot presidential campaigns running.
"Last month, after Ron Paul expressed regret on the Alex Jones show over not owning RonPaul.com (in an interview titled "Ron Paul: The Internet Is Our Last Chance to Awaken America"), dozens of supporters urged us to contact Ron Paul to work out a deal," the owners of RonPaul.com write.
They say they offered Paul the use of RonPaul.org as a "free gift" but wanted to keep RonPaul.com. Their price, should Paul really want RonPaul.com, was $250,000.
"Claims that we tried to sell Ron Paul "his name" for $250k or even $800k are completely untrue, and there is little doubt that our mailing list would have enabled Ron Paul to raise several million dollars for the liberty movement this year. It would have been a win/win/win situation for everyone involved," they write.
Even more shocking to the proprietors is that Paul's complaint was lodged with a U.N. agency, an organization that garners mistrust among libertarians.

Once again Ron Paul proves he has more in common with Obama than the Republicans/Conservatives.
Both are willing to throw anyone under the bus that isn't useful to them anymore.
Karma's a real bitch isn't Paulbots?

Trademark complaint? You can trademark rigidity, intransigence, and poor judgement?
Who knew?

The words 'intellectual' and Ron Paul should never be used in the same sentence.

His followers should put their donation money to better use. I see children without winter coats.

Seriously? Come 2016, they will all be chanting for him to be on the write in. Heck, it wouldn't surprise me if they try to sue states to put him on the ballot, even if he doesn't run. His followers are just as nuts as he is. They will stop at nothing to get him elected.
