Ron Paul, Obama can easily beat.

Think... why????

why do u say that? Ron Paul prob has the best shot at winning just because he can get many digruntel democrats and independents to vote for him. And republicans will have no choice but to vote for him.

His foreign policy views don't fit within the usual Washington beltway consensus of war as a positive economic force exemplified by idiots like Thomas Friedman and David Brooks, and the rest of his policies are just plain nutty foo foo. Mostly it's the former that keeps him off the teevee, the latter merely justifies it.

The policy that says don't allow government to manipulate the economy which put us in this depression and caused many low and middle income people to loose their equity and savings? That policy?
Yea nutty foo foo stuff like that. I don't think you've given his policies much thought.

That's not it. Don't you think they would love to give him a chance to hang himself with his own words if they really thought that? The regular primetime opinion jockeys just aren't knowledgeable enough to discuss economics in depth. That's why he's shuffled off to the business channels where people have a background on the subject matter. It's all about them and not looking like fools. They make it seem like they don't want to get in the weeds "for the viewers" but it's just as much about them being shown up by someone who can talk circles around them on a subject. Why do you think they prefer to talk "political strategy" instead of subject matter? I'm telling you, if a scientist turned Congressman was running against an economist turned Congressman, they'd all wet their pants. They like candidates who make social issues their primary focus. They also can talk foreign policy because they can read up on it and regurgitate it without having to really figure anything out/do the math. They aren't schooled in economics.

If you really want to know about Herman Cain's 9-9-9 plan or Perry's flat tax plan or hear whatever plan Ron Paul has out there watch the cable business channels.

Notice a lot more chemtrails lately? They need big bucks to continue flowing to the military - this research is very costly (it's a secret)! Alot of those clouds are manmade. Weather manipulation is just part of the plan. Ron Paul would be a major problem for them.

You may be on to something... Cain may be the only candidate out there who is actually more stupid than Perry, and you know how much Americans love their stupid presidents.

Why do I keep seeing Johnson and Huntsman interviewed - who give's a crap what they have to say? They are less than nobody's and need to step aside.
And Anderson Cooper has his panties all in a bunch trying to defend mainstream media's treatment of Ron Paul...

Ahem... Gary Johnson is a Libertarian at heart. His positions are very similar to Ron Paul's and he's younger.

Question? Who/what is "the Five"? Is that a show on Fox?
