Could it be because voters don't take him seriously?

[Sky Slug]

He’s a novelty candidate.

He is the default choice of someone who dislikes the government, but pays utterly no attention to geopolitical issues or our system of government. Don’t get me wrong, Ron Paul has several conservative issues on the money. He can’t seem to grasp the concept that Israel is the beacon in the Middle East, not the enemy.

Were he to run as an independent, I assure you, he would get plenty of attention. As a perennial presidential candidate of the GOP, we all know how the story ends.

I’m a little afraid of him! I consider him a weird dude!

[Vendome]

Who?

[Rum Tum Tugger]

I take Ron Paul very seriously.

The simple fact is that there is no other GOP candidate who is correct on as many issues as Ron Paul.

Why is the media ignoring Ron Paul?

Because he's NOT an illuminati finger puppet.

[NavyCanDo]

Like Ernest T. Bass throwing rocks at the Sheriff’s window, the best advice sometimes is to just ignore the nut. And Paul is the Ernest T. Bass of the political arena.

> Why is the media ignoring Ron Paul?

Ron who?

[erod]

I remember my liberaltarian brother lamenting about Ron Paul recently, “If only people would listen to him, nobody wants war (i.e. Defending ourselves), people want drugs legalized, etc.” Newsflash Paul has been a candidate for awhile now, If RP wants his campaign to take off it’s up to him he’s not the only candidate that’s hated by the media. For example, Palin is despised, but the media pays attention to her. Why? Because she has a large following not just a handful of diehards who spam online polls, and pack in for a straw poll.

Maybe they’re starting to realize that his elevator doesn’t go all the way to the top.
