Personally I think the man has a great idea for auditing the fed but on foreign policy he chooses to bury his head in the sand. He would not make a well rounded president.
Because continuous wars are the right thing to do. Right?

I'm sorry to hear that.
It's better than the communist Democrats, who are as anti-American as they come.

There is an urban GOP media elite. Like the Democrat academics who sit on their high horse, the urban GOP media elite looks down their nose at the rest of us...except at election time when they try to persuade you vote for someone from the NY/DC corridor because those are the people they rub elbows with. And their power only comes from getting those people elected. Bill Kristol is a good example. Ron Paul in the White House does nothing to improve Bill Kristol's prestige or power. Neither will any governor from the south (unless it's Virginia which is close to DC). Now he's floating the Chris Christie rumor. Before that it was Paul Ryan. Before that, a few years ago, they were touting George Allen. They told us to shut up about McCain, the RINO, in 2008 and get behind him and vote for him. I'm pretty sure Kristol or his GOP elitist friends floated the Bloomberg/Pataki rumors, too.

If you want to know who they are, just check out the regular GOP panel on Bret Baier's show or the panel on Chris Wallace's show or read the Weekly Standard.

Nobody in the current race is one of their urban elitist friends so they're out trying to lobby others to get in the race from the people they see regularly. Someone like Romney (rich guy from a political family) is more blueblood acceptable but they will only settle for him, he's not the guy they really want.

I'm ready for a third party.

Rest assured the Dems have their mega-corporation puppet masters & ministers of propaganda aplenty.

Maybe you've heard of CNN,MSNBC, et al....?


Then there's always the Ambassador of Class Warfare Buffet too.

Communism is not a laughing matter. I find it odd how you discount the fact that most Democrats subscribe to the ideology of cultural and economic marxism, which they try to push in the government (ie: communism), yet you think that this is "too much Beck/Fox", when anyone with a lick of common sense and education could see the reality of it all.

Oh yes, I must be getting my orders from "Glen Beck and Fox", even though I form my own opinions and disagree with the above quite often.

Chris Matthews, Lawrence O'Donnel, and Rachel Madow are an embarrassment to the media world. Blatantly communist in nature.

Why does the media act like Ron Paul does not exist?

Even when Ron Paul comes in first or second in a straw poll, his name is rarely mentioned.

Even when Ron Paul wins online poll after online poll, his name is rarely mentioned.

Even when people phone in who they think won a debate, his name is only barely spoken of. This is absurd.

On news programs, outside of debates, he's never mentioned. For example, take Sean Hannity's program. Last night, he had pictures of candidates, and who did he include: Romney, Perry, Bachmann, Gingrich, and Cain. Ron Paul has polled higher than the last three.

It makes no sense to not speak of the man, and this is going for all networks. Why is there a collective effort to silence this man, when he has been the most strident with defending the constitution in our congress? Why have they done this every time he runs for office, despite the fact that the people like what he has to say. It's only that the media tries to make it where as few people as possible know his name or his views.

He's never called a "front runner". Why? What makes Perry or Romney "Front Runners"? Could it be possible that is who the media likes?



1 word - UNELECTABLE

Interesting, this nice piece of communist propaganda being ousted came from Beck and fox news, how unsurprising

Oh yes, "childish right wing catch words". By the way, Fox News doesn't use the word communist or marxist. They're afraid to tell the truth. That tells me how much you've actually watched the network.

You have to be a youngster.
