Congratulations, RP! Looking forward to him wiping the floor with the GOP neocons. :banana:

Just keep in mind that it's the media that controls who people vote for.

Ron Paul will get exactly NO coverage ( and if he DOES get any coverage, they will try to turn him into a joke ) so people won't bother to educate themselves.

Except that the media is fast becoming a big joke across the country. About time they got told off for being biased! I still haven't found many people who take the time to consider both sides of an argument, but I wish there were more around!

Have to say, though, I think it's funny when people call up Roger Hedgecock and have no clue... he actually tries to listen before he tells them off! It's so funny... give me an example, or proof, or even something that indicates you have a clue... and of course half of the people have nada!

I don't care about the vote at all-I know that the system is stupid and rigged. (I'm an anarcho-capitalist) Having Ron in the race does help educate people who are otherwise too dumb or lazy to educate, though.

The dumb and the lazy " educate " themselves by watching who the media tells them to watch.

Again. Ron Paul will get either no coverage at all, or derisive coverage.

People still won't bother to educate themselves as long as talking heads like Limbaugh, Olbermann, Hannity, and whoever else yapping away on tv and the sheeple sit there and lap up every word.

The funny thing is...they actually think they ARE being educated.

If Paul could read off the teleprompter like obamanation, he would win the nomination.
