... 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.

Related point" I recently heard a radio interview with British historian Hugh Thomas. He must be in his 80s now. He said that when his first book came out, he was considered a "left-wing historian" and now with his recent books he is considered a "right-wing historian". He said that he felt that his views had not changed at all.

The lesson then is that society has shifted very far to the Left. The leftists of the 1940s are now the right-wing extremists of today. And the left-wing extremists of today? Waaaaaay over into crazy land -- but the media calls them "moderates".
