Why is the media ignoring Ron Paul?

Is it too funny to think of eliminating the IRS or what?

So is anyone in agreement here?

I personally don’t think that our founding fathers spent ten years under Articles of Confederation prior to structuring our country’s governing document because they were idiots. They had the lessons of the British Revolution and the ensuing years of Jacobitism and Parliamentary vs. Monarchy hassles to overcome. They made decisions like separation of church and state based on the fact that in Britain, at that time, Anglican Bishops were automatically seated in the House of Lords (or in the Scottish Parliament’s unicameral house – until the Incorporating Union of 1707) in order to keep the religious polemic out of politics.

Yet, everyone seems to accept what the extremely biased media tells them to think.

I am reminded of Senator Amidala saying (paraphrased), “So this is how democracy dies, to the roar of applause from the crowd.”

I agree that the media ignores Ron Paul, but I’m afraid it makes me sound like a radical. I think ‘the man’ fears Ron Paul, along with most big time politicians and most of the extremely rich. He’s definitely radical, and the fact he has such a large grassroots following has got to spook both parties, especially the Republicans. The power elite control a lot, and whether the next president is Obama or McCain, they’ll stay just as powerful. That might not be the case if Ron Paul got some things through congress, which he’d probably never be able to do.

I really dislike the political atmosphere in our country, and I dislike every major candidate being so out of touch with the average American, and in particular, out of touch with me. So far, I’ve had to choose between Kerry/Bush/McCain/Obama. No offense if you support Obama/ McCain but I think they all reek of elitism. Ron Paul doesn’t. I voted Paul in the primaries and will again in November. If I wasn’t broke and lazy I’d go take part in that revolution march in DC. At least I have a sign in my ard.

Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!

I am WRITING PAUL IN on my absentee ballot that will be sent to me here in Scotland.

You are correct; he is too radical for all these asshole ‘New World Order’ fuckers. But, screw them all. They are all just one side or the other of the same goddamn coin. I see Paul as actually having read and adhering to our Constitution (which I highly suspect most Americans have never either read, not to mention studied as I have [I have a law degree also]). Meh – he is my candidate and anyone who loves the idea of freedom and personal liberty will vote for him.
