Got to Love Ron Paul!!!!

He's a thorn in the side of the GOP......a real constitutionalist! Makes those neo-conservatives nervous.

One would think that as much as the media hates the Republican Party it would be giving him all kinds of media attention. Unfortunately, they love the status quo (big government, the continued erosion of freedom that will get us used to the idea of a global government) more and, so, they don't want to upset the status quo.

The media may 'hate' the GOP but it's afraid of the clear, cogent, and constitutional thinking of Dr. Paul much more. There really isn't that much of a true difference between the Republicans and the Democrats. Just shades of Grey.

Yes, the Democrats and Republicans really are two sides of the same coin.

With the vote split among 10 candidates Ron Paul carried a full 1/3 of the votes on the debate you show here.

I think they refer to that as "He won the debate"

But you won't see those words in any mainstream press outlet.

He doesn't stand a chance but he may be influential down the line to start a real viable 3rd party....I'm pulling for him.
