The links are in the text, that's very clear with the blue coloration and mousing over it.

If they are links you just don't like, I don't especially care.

There are links in the above text as well, as demonstration.

I think he should get the nomination, because even a ham sandwich could win the election against him.

Please help him get the nomination! Pretty please! I'm serious, he would be an epic candidate to watch...better then Bob Dole.
Wow! Any view you may have has been undermined by your own silliness. They way you have just characterized Ron Paul is just silly and very off the mark.

Google Trends: Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Herman Cain, Rick Santorum, Tim Pawlenty, Michele Bachman, Gary Johnson

Give it a week and the others will be flatlining again and Ron Paul will consistently be maintaining or gaining public interest IN SPITE of what the Lamestream media might report.
I hope you are right. We need him. Wonder who he would pick for VP?

Obama seems to take the initiative on bombing brown people. Who's the bigot again?

I am so silly! You are so right!

Look at those silly references that show the factual basis behind each statement!

I must be off base if I take my thoughts and ideas from a factual basis of what really happened, instead of believing whatever I want and only paying attention to facts that agree with me!

Thanks for setting me straight!

GOP Insiders say Romney was the biggest win – CNN Political Ticker - CNN.com Blogs
Supposedly 54 people were questioned by CNN and Ron Paul placed dead last? Give me a break... CNN try at least to hide your bias. If Ron Paul placed dead last, why is he finishing first on most online polls?

Also, I did notice Ron Paul was in the lead with 22,738 votes on the fox news poll-- then I clicked to see it again and they had removed some of votes from Paul (now at 22,368 votes)-- wth is going on?

So why is the media so biased against Ron Paul?

Government Enemy Number One

I don't think you can be set straight. You are everything that is wrong with the political environment. You take something and totally twist it to try to paint the person in a different light. Ron Paul isn't a white supremist nor is he any of those things you try to portray him as. The very article you use clearly says that Ron Paul disassociated himself from Mr. Johnson once his views (which are still debated that he even had them) were suspected. This article does NOT call Ron Paul a racist, it does the opposite. Your hate & spin is quit pathetic.

Exactly... idiot can't even read his own article he posted.

Also, how is an OPINION PIECE Fact? Explain that?

Here is a fact for you:

-Unemployment is at 8.7% under Obama
Unemployment - Google public data

This idiot should go back to school and learn what facts are.

The president of the NAACP says Ron Paul is not racist. The left is messed up, always calling people racist when they don't agree with them.
