Do they not realize that all these candidates who win the nomination for their 'Party'....are bought and paid for by the boys and girls who run these corrupt 'party' organizations?

I am amazed at the naivety of the average voter...who doesn't seem to understand the 'backroom' deals that go on. Integrity and Honor ....so called Statesmen/Women are not involved with the dirty dealing political scene anymore. Wake up, folks.

Paul hasn't won the 'nomination' of the Republican Party. And part of the reason (only a small part) he can't get the nomination...is probably because he can't be bought and paid for.

So then no effort should be made to counter this corruption? That's the way it is, so live with it?

Hmm... conservatives say "The way things were is the way things should be." Liberals say "What if...?" All forward movement starts with liberal thinking. The only solution then to this corrupt dilemma, this two-headed monster that masquerades as elective choice, will come from the left. Hopefully, it will arrive soon.

Here's an idea: Stop giving the parties your money! Duh!

Not just that, but the entire two-party political system is corrupt. It is meant to be divisive, and prevent any sizable third party or independent from gaining any real power to pose a threat by keeping the country divided. The real power in this country is controlled by the banks and the oil industry.

Let an elected official come in and try to reform the Federal Reserve system and see what happens to them. There has already been one example of this before, and we all know how that ended. It's really amazing how blind the majority of the American people are to the corruption behind the two-party political system, and how election after election, regardless of which party is in power, it's all basically the same stuff happening behind the scenes. Mainstream politicians are all puppets to Big Oil and the Big Banking industry.

The Who said it best with, "Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss." But unfortunately the American public keeps fooling themselves time and time again.

Yet your OP stated all these candidates when all are still candidates and no one has won the nomination as yet.

Paul would be "silenced" in a heartbeat. The mainstream media, which is owned by the banking industry, controls the mainstream political candidates. Ron Paul wants to "end the Fed", and there is no way the powers to be are going to allow this to happen. Too much money, power, and greed are at play. There is unfortunately no way Paul will get elected with anything short of a real Revolution.

A couple of months before the election you can predict with accuracy which party is going to gain seats and which POTUS candidiate is going to win. Just look and see which direction the Wall Street and banksters money went and you have your winners.
