His district in Texas swings strongly to the right- like just my mule. | |

Posted: 2/2/2007 12:27:19 AM | Time magazine purposely left Ron Paul’s pic and name off the list of “those who’ve filed an exploratory committee” in the current issue.The majors ABC, CBS etc are putting Hillary and Obama on every front page and in every news segment on politics.
Those are the anointed Democrats. The corporate and primary news will select some pea in the pod Republicans to run against them. They select Democrats and Republicans that talk a different talk but who vote alike and the media will discount or ignore everyone else. In effect people vote for those they are told to vote for. | |

For the People, of the people and by the people... possibly not in that order it is very late, I am exhausted..
Ron Pauls platform is take away the power the government has over us and put them back to work on our behalf. Take away the horrific taxation, the fear mongering.. and the theft of our freedoms, rights and our constitution.
New Hampshire is the first state to begin to actually follow the constitution, and wants all of the Americans that believe that we need to follow that document exactly to move to the state and support the effort. Please check it out.
it is exciting and amazing..

Posted: 2/9/2007 10:33:53 AM | Ron Paul is an excellent choice...and therein is the problem...what makes you folks believe
we the people are the moving force and final say in any given election?? Going back to
G W Bush, who ran against the late Ann Richards[who had a 94% approv. rating] in a gub-
anatorial race in the mid-90's. This election was stolen, as were both presidential elections
of recent memory, as were Bill Clinton's. The internationalist group referred to as the
Bilderbergers are the actual dynamic in deciding who is "puffed" and who is "chosen".
Federalism, as is practiced in this country today, was eloquently denounced in a series
of debates, and available for inspection under the title, 'The Anti-Fedarlist"....it represents
the spirit of prophecy for geo-political matters and Im sure Mr. Ron Paul has read it. My
fearless prediction--the Clintons are going back to the White House and we are going to
the poor house. | |

Posted: 2/9/2007 4:56:50 PM | This election was stolen, as were both presidential elections of recent memory... "Those who cast the votes decide nothing, those who count the votes decide everything." - Joseph Stalin. Now it those that control the programming to the paperless trail, touch screen black boxes that decide everything.
The internationalist group referred to as the Bilderbergers are the actual dynamic in deciding who is "puffed" and who is "chosen". If they are the international bankers that own the Federal Reserve (which is no more Federal than Federal Express), I believe. They have $trillions which is easy whey you create money out of nothing, lend it to the government and collect interest on it. I know they bought up the media which given them control of the news and what people see and believe.
the Clintons are going back to the White House and we are going to the poor house. Hillary Clinton ends 2006 with $13,145,637 in her campaign war chest. See http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2006/12/11/primarysource/entry2249441.shtml. Because her senate campaign fund was for a federal office, the balance is legally convertible to a presidential campaign committee. Overall, during her senate reelection campaign, Senator Clinton raised $50 million and spent $37 million. The senator now has more than 250,000 donors in her database.
She has both the money and the media featuring her daily in the news and on every political article. So you are probably right. It will be her or someone else anointed by the media. And, for insurance, they have the black box voting machines. | |

Posted: 2/10/2007 1:00:52 AM | Ron Paul for “auditable“ paper trail for voting.
Ron Paul co-sponsored Know Your Vote Counts Act of 2004 - Amends the Help America Vote Act of 2002 to revise voting system standards to require the voting system used in an election for Federal office to provide the voter with an auditable paper record showing how the vote will be recorded by the system after the voter enters it. Requires the voter to use such record to verify that the vote shown is the vote the voter intends to cast.

Ron Paul about the Fed, which he supports abolishing.
“The fundamental question is whether a central bank can manage the supply of money and credit better than the free market otherwise would.”
http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul292.html
Not too crazy of ideas if you ask me. Voting for Clinton, well that's just crazy! | |

Anyone can vote, but only once each week and each week is seperate. You are encouraged to vote for both a Democrat and a Republican. Clinton is not doing well in the Democratic poll. | |

Posted: 2/11/2007 2:46:35 PM | Barack Obama in 2008!
I think Mitt Romney should be sent back to the Stone Age where it came from. Rudy Giuliani is a good man and I would not mind having him as President even though Barack Obama is my man all the way!
I don't think Hillary is going to get the nomination. I predict that Barack Obama will take it all the way and be the first Black President, and the first HONEST President in a LONG time. | |

Posted: 2/11/2007 6:14:44 PM | | according to pollingreport.com which lists all of the major polls and some minor ones, Ron Paul gets barely a mention with no more than 1% of the vote in any of them. I stand a better chance of getting elected than he does. | |

Posted: 2/11/2007 9:31:41 PM | There is a media black out on Ron Paul. The major media has been bought up by the international bankers that own the Federal Reserve and Corporate interest. Five Corporate conglomerates that are in bed together own the media. The last person they want for President is Ron Paul because, unlike the other candidates, he has not been bought and paid for so he will not do their bidding.
The media are constantly featuring people such as Hillary, Obama, Giuliani, and Romney on the front page and in every news program. In effect they pre-select candidates that will do their bidding and tell the America public to vote for one of their choices. Sadly, most Americans vote as the media tells them to. | |

Can you prove there is a media blackout on Ron Paul or is that just your opinion? Ron Paul ran for president as a libertarian a few years back and got nowhere. My guess is the last person any conglomerate is worried about is Paul. He is ineffective, therefore impotent. | |

See for yourself.
1 http://www.2008horserace.com/ with 26 candidates but Ron Paul is not included.
2. http://www.gopbloggers.org/ with twelve Republicans candidates but Ron Paul is not included.
3. http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x1297.xml?ReleaseID=1012 with ten Democrat and twelve Republicans but Ron Paul is not included.
4. http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/BeSeenBeHeard/popup?id=2641512 with 17 candidates but Ron Paul is not included.
5. Fox News poll mentioning people like Al Gore, Chuck Hagel, Mark Warner, and Newt
Gingrich. No longer on internet but Ron Paul was not included.
6. Feb 5 issue of Time magazine: In their article on the presidential race they listed 9 Democrats and 11 Republicans but Ron Paul was not included.
Now that I have shown you where he is not included, try and show me where he is included by any of the major new media. | |

Posted: 2/13/2007 9:15:18 PM | Smjle,
That does not make him a black out, he is just not seen as anywhere near a viable contender. Yeah I think they should include all of them but this guy will never get any popular support. He is a Libertarian and that is where he belongs. The only reason he does not run even for congress as a Libertarian is because he can not win except as a Republican. Not newsworthy does not mean black out. | |

It's not a media blackout........as a candidate, Paul is just not that important. For those of you who've hitched your wagon to this guy, I'm sorry.....the truth hurts sometimes. Paul is irrelevant. | |

Posted: 2/14/2007 7:47:03 AM | Obviously you are one of the majority that votes for who the media tells them to vote for.
The primary media is owned by five conglomerate corporations that are in turn primarily owned and controlled by the international bankers that own the Federal Reserve. The Rockefellers and the Trilateral Commission is a subset of the international bankers. The media features on the news Democrats and Republicans that will do their bidding. The only reason you have heard of Barack Obama is because he is featured on the front page and in every political news segment. He has sold out to the international bankers.
They ignore Ron Paul because he will not do their bidding. "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they attack you, then you win." Mahatma Gandhi | |

Posted: 2/14/2007 8:10:06 AM | and obviously you are one of those people who believes every conspiracy theory around.
Libertarians come from all back grounds and all political beliefs. Currently Bill Mayer, Neal Boortz, Dennis Miller and others like them claim to be Libertarians. They all share one common belief. It is not really that government has too much control of our lives, it is just that they are smarter than the rest of us and if we disagree with them we are just not smart enough to understand. That myopia is deadly for someone who makes his living as a politician. I have watched Ron Paul longer than you have been alive. He comes from a district that the Boston Strangler could get elected from if he ran as a Republican. In congress he is has been ineffective because he cannot get along with anyone else. He is the guy at the water cooler telling you how smart he is. He is the relative that makes all family functions unbearable. As president he would even be less effective as most of how you get things done is based on your powers of persuasian. He has none of that. Even if, as you assume, he is right getting it done is what it is all about. | |

I see...........big conspiracy to keep the ancient Ron Paul out of the White House. See, junior, for there to be a conspiracy, someone has to care. Paul is irrelevant and it's not a conspiracy....he has alienated anybody in Congress who might help him. If he's not getting noticed it's his own fault for not getting his message out.
You don't know me, kid. You don't know how i've voted in the past. I became a supporter of Obama in 2004 after his keynote address to the Democratic convention so another of your predictions about me goes by the wayside. If Paul is so unique and a champion of the people, why run as a Republican and not libertarian or independant? Could it be he knows he'd have no chance.....so he whores himself out to the Republicans(who, for the most part dislike him)for their support.
You need to get over this Fed-Trilateral-Rockefeller conspiracy nonsense. None of it is based in fact and you damage your credibility repeating this nonsense....I thought the Dems were the big conspiriacy theorists.
Nothing wrong with being idealistic at your age.....you should be that way....just don't let that idealism blind you to facts. The fact is Paul has no chance to get the nomination, much less win the general election. You know it and I know it. Now the question becomes, will you continue to cry conspiracy and remain attached to Paul's doomed candidacy or will you research the other candidates(who might actually have a chance) to try and find a viable one who has similar views as you. I suspect you will continue to support him and sadly, will have wasted your vote....again.
Nice quote by Ghandi....how many elections did he win by the way? | |

Posted: 2/20/2007 7:48:09 AM | The media blackout of Ron Paul continues.
The media are making fools of themselves. In the few internet polls where he is included Ron Paul is winning the Republican vote by a landslide. At http://pajamasmedia.com/ they have a weekly poll. Ron Paul won with 43.3% of the votes for Republicans. That is more than the combined total of next two Republican candidates (Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney). They never anticipated so much support for Ron Paul, so what did they do? They excluded him from this weeks poll. Check it out and see for yourself.
At http://www.strawpoll08.com/ they have a condensed monthly poll and an expanded monthly poll. Ron Paul is excluded from the condensed poll but he is winning in the expanded poll where he is listed. So what did they do? They started and article titled, “Ron Paul...warning to the left, christian right, center about Ron Paul” whey they tried to trash Ron Paul. They got blown away by the comments from Ron Paul supporters. Check it out and see for yourself. | |

Posted: 2/20/2007 8:15:34 AM | I don't think so. It clearly states on the site that from this point forward their poll would only include those candidates that score at least 1% on the most recent Gallup Poll. I guess your guy just didn't make the cut.
The "article" you quote is just a post on a thread....just like here. I thought the post was very insightful and on target.
I'll give you credit for trying....you're doing your best to manufacture a conspiracy where there is none. I especially like how you only include the remarks on these sites that suit your theory. I notice also that you can vote in some of these polls more than once. how many times did you vote?
The truth is Paul has alienated almost all of those in either party who might have supported him. I hope he does stay in the race because I think he can raise the level of debate but he has no chance to win the nomination much less the general election. As much you like him, if you can't see that, you're either not trying or are too young and naive to understand how politics in the US works. | |
