Obama asked in Politics & GovernmentPolitics · 10 years ago

Why does the media choose to report as little as possible about Ron Paul, when...?

...Ron Paul has been winning nearly every poll I've seen. He won the Foxnews Poll shortly after the debate, and now the yahoo poll.

Sorry, can't really find the actual Foxnews poll I saw the other day. Even though Bachmann won the Straw Poll, you can't hold merit on that. She was born in Iowa, so of course she'd have a large amount of support. But as you know, she only won by less then 200 votes to Ron Paul. SO WHY THE LITTLE COVERAGE ON MR. PAUL?

(Please refrain from call Ron Paul a nutjob, because he is obviously smarter than you)

    They are afraid of him. He will expose the truth and most likely if he won the Presidency they would have him killed.

    Ron Paul is the last hope this country's got. WE NEED MONEY, FAST. With Ron Paul, we would be able to get our spending cut in half, and we will be on the road to recovery. I like Rick Perry, but he's just a branded Republican, and an in-your-face insult to liberals alone. Ron Paul can actually solve our problems because he knows how to think. He's texan too.

    As A Missouri resident i hit upon it thoroughly achievable that my state may be going third party interior the subsequent election. i be attentive to i visit and function been doing what i can to cajole extra to go that direction. i've got no longer been pulled over yet, yet have seen some by utilising the roadside with stickers. A county deputy advised me that they've been meant to be staring at my strikes, too, because of the fact i'm so vocal. The humorous element is, I stay in a rural carea of a farming community and have no bumper stickers on my truck. i'm thinking approximately portray it a various shade and then thumb my nostril at them. enable them to pull me. My lawyer is on our section and he might desire to teach off his skills lower back. this may be a travesty nonetheless!

    Fox doesn't want Paul as President, they're just pretending to because they figure they can harm Obama the most that way, then sneak in a fake, Wall Street conservative at the last minute like all the rest.

    I like Ron Paul and I admire the enthusiasm of his supporters but he is a second tier candidate at best.

    He does well at small event such as Iowa because of the passion of his supporters.

    He has no chance at winning.

    Ron Paul has been winning polls forever. However he is a fruitcake supported by the few nuts who adore him for his promise to legalize their dope. Thus, he is not viable to the rest of us that want to fix the real problems in this country.

    It's the same reason they are not reporting on David Duke's presidential campaign. They are both racist douche bags that should not have a public forum.

    Because he spouts the same old song. He'll never be elected president, but he'll always be there to run. He's not news.
