Good point. My entire family noticed that.

What irks me about these articles about media coverage of Ron Paul is that so many freepers rush in and say "Well, Ron Paul is like a crazy uncle" or "He hasn't got a chance anyway".

I think such observations totally miss the point.

The media is picking our candidate. They cover who they want to cover. They ignore the people they don't like (and it's not just Ron Paul) and they spin what people say.

Ron Paul is the canary in the coalmine. He may be a crazy guy, but he is also a poster child for how the MSM is controlling the re-election of the Political Establishment so that this country can keep on doing what it's been doing.

This is an excellent point. It is precisely why the republican political elite have been allowed to sidle further and further to the left using the mantra of 'lessor of two evils'.

It shows just how effective and how insidious cultural marxism has been.

Well isn't he?

or "He hasn't got a chance anyway".

Well does he?

What Republican in his right mind would vote for some crack head who blames 9/11 on America? Who would vote for someone who thinks getting rid of OBL was a bad idea, or putting gays in the military is a good one? Why would any true Republican want anybody who blames every problem in the world on America?
