Think about what your saying. A candidate has to meet MSM acceptance and criteria before they can accept fair coverage?
Can you name one Conservative who has received fair coverage in the past 20 years? I could probably name several hundred that haven’t.
That’s why Fox News had gained such popularity...until turning way left recently.

No, I'm saying that a candidate has to be of interest to the MSM. Usually, this means the candidate is telegenic, dynamic, and articulate (Obama, anyone?). You can't put it all on the MSM... they serve up what brings in viewers, and Fred has not generated the kind of excitement necessary to get his campaign off the ground.
Ronald Reagan garnered a lot of media attention. I wouldn't say that he had fair coverage, but he had the qualities which drew the cameras.
Let's face it. Fred is an excellent 19th century candidate. He doesn't have all of the superficial qualities that are necessary for the modern-day candidate.
