Every time I hear a RP supporter talk, or read anything they write I hear the theme from “The Twilight Zone” in my head.

Ron Paul is far down on my list of presidential candidates. I am not a Libertarian. Now, having said that, I certainly support less spending and smaller government. A lot of candidates sort of talk like that -- but one senses that they don't mean it. Obama, after all, plans to "cut the budget" by investing in everything you can possibly think of.
The candidates who might actually rock the boat and REALLY try to shrink the budget are the candidates that the Establishment want to destroy or ignore. Ron Paul, Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann ... possibly Rick Perry. These candidates are each unique, of course, and do not approach government in exactly the same way, but they all seem serious about changing Washington.
The media clearly doesn't want that to happen.

The problem is not what he says. I think if you posted a lot of his views without attribution, folks would view them as positive.
He is ignored because he comes across like a demented uncle who sees winged creatures in his room at night.

Ron Paul is just out of touch with reality. I am surprised that the MSM is not covering him wall to wall, however. After all they could use him to bash Republicans until the end of time!

Because winning straw polls the way this wacked out new-age Lyndon LaRouche does ultimately does not win elections and the press knows it. He has no money and no support from the power brokers who can make it happen.

I listened to a speech by Louis Ferricane (sp?) on the radio a few years ago. He started off making so much sense that I was amazed. As time passed and his speech continued he got nuttier and nuttier, by the end of it he was a raving lunatic talking about the mother ship.
That is pretty much the way I feel after listening to Ron Paul except I don't think he has a mother ship.

When one sees a carcass in the road that neither crow, coyote nor buzzard will eat, it is normal to consider what it wrong with the carcass.

I’ve heard many liberals switching to RP. It’s not much of a philosophical leap. Libertarianism is NOT Conservatism. Not even close. There’s some similar ideas but it’s like a guy mumbling to himself and someone speaking on a hands free phone. Their both talking.. but there’s a big difference about what’s really going on.

Media is ignoring RP?
Kind of odd considering the fact that for the past week or more we’ve been getting one story after another about the news media ignoring RP.

I love how the paultards have made this non-story a way for them to get more headlines. However, let’s look at some interesting facts.

Basically, they are creating a false myth he is being ignored to drive more attention to him. He has been getting as much attention, if not far more, than many of the other candidates. At that, from what I’ve seen, it seems the media has been paying far more attention to Paul this go around, trying to paint the entire GOP with his kook brush.

It’s not because he’s nuts. It’s because they know he won’t win. They offer no more coverage to Cain or Santorum.
To: rellimpank
The media highlights him in the debates because he makes Republicans look like that crack-pot who slipped the leash at the nursing home and has been found down at the street corner in his bathrobe ranting at strangers.

Trying to keep him from examination until the old media and the Democrats launch him as a fiscal conservative/country club friendly third party candidate to split the Republican vote and give us four more years of Democrats.
