Not even FOX news, the tea party mecca of cable news media, is giving ron paul his fair air time. FOX is giving more air time to PALIN, BACHMAN AND ROMNEY!!!!

So much for FOX being the tea party candidates cheerleaders!! NOT!!!


IMO, Paul is not the tea party candidate.  
Americans for Prosperity Foundation and FreedomWorks, who own the TeaParty,  are funded and controlled by the Koch brothers.  They have no interest in a candidate like Paul, that they cannot dominate.
They would prefer Bimbo Palin or Dimwit Bachmann who will do their bidding.

Nothing new with FOX news, they pulled that stuff during the last election and we see what the GOP nominated then. Judge Napolitano, Stossel, show Paul respect as they're true conservatives unlike the majority of the neo-conservative FOX platform. As I said before be careful what they say the Tea Party supports because half of the Tea Party is the old big government republican guard, even Herman Cain who is rising in popularity as some small government conservative was the Chairman of the Federal Reserve bank in Kansas City, so what does that tell you about his fiscal conservative platform

Paul is TRYING to draw the tea party into his realm, but as yet, the Money and Power of the TeaParty is not his.

The only way that Paul stands any chance of a Republican Primary victory is if the TeaBaggers vote for him in a big way... Other wise, he will be just a Republican spoiler.

That should be all one needs to know Henry...anyone associated with the Federal Reserve and/ or the Council on Foreign Relations
should be avoided like the plague.

Yeah no kidding, it's amazing how many politicians have some sort of ties between those two. I also find it odd how now that people are starting to really criticize the Federal Reserve we now have one of their good ol' boys now running for president, coincidence? I doubt it.

Right again Henry...it is not coincidental by any stretch of the imagination. My greatest concern with regard to Paul's candidacy is
the chokehold that the FR and CFR network has on the media and its powerful influence that will all but guarantee the demise
of Paul.

Romney got 32% of the vote...
Paul only managed 9%.

It was in New Hampshire, Massachusetts next door neighbor.  Romney had a HUGE edge in name recognition in that part of the country. Conduct the same poll in Oklahoma, and I'd bet the numbers are reverse in favor of Paul.  Garnering 9% in May in the northeast is pretty good for a Texan.

Again,,,more proof that for a guy who practically gets zero mainstream media coverage, and if he does it is negative, is grabbing 10% is pretty good for being the middle of May.  Fox News doesn't even mention Paul's name when discussing the "top tier" Republican candidates.  Both parties want to marginalize Paul because his philosophy of limited government Austrian economics runs counter to BOTH parties big government Keynesian economic philosophy.

Paul gets about as much coverage as Ralph Nader did when he was running as a fringe candidate... both will never be more than a post script in a Presidential Election unless they get broad Republican or Democrat backing.

Nader did play an important role in electing George Worst Bush in 2000... had Nader not run, Gore would have been elected.
