Paul Ray Ramsey (also known as ramzpaul and RamZPaul, born 1963) is an American far-right vlogger, YouTube personality, and public speaker.[1][2][3]

The New York Times has described Ramsey as a "popular alt-right internet personality",[4] and the Swiss newspaper Basellandschaftliche Zeitung identified him as an important representative of the alt-right.[5] Media Matters for America, The Forward, and the Southern Poverty Law Center have called Ramsey a white nationalist.[6][7][8] He spoke at the 2013 conference held by the online magazine American Renaissance.[8] Ramsey replied to a question posed by Matthew Heimbach at the conference about the creation of a whites only state: "We need to Balkanize and create our own homeland. We have a right to exist."[9][better source needed]
