As a Ron Paul fan and supporter myself, this was always something that perplexed me. I think Ron Paul would've been a great asset to the GOP, especially with his Libertarian-skewing platforms and emphasis on fiscal responsibility, lowering taxes, and prioritizing balanced budgets and stabilizing the economy over social issues. He was very ahead of his time imho.
Of course, McCain, Romney, and Palin were bigger household names but Paul has such little ground level support from the GOP that he dropped out twice in a row and reports showed low polling among Republican voters(and voters in general.)
I also seen some Conservatives in real life(friends of mine) claim that he and his son come off too Liberal for their liking. And I think this article sort of touches on this.
I also question what your thread title means. Ron Paul has always been considered rather fringe. He's not a typical establishment republican. His heart is in the right place, but his ideas, if put into practice, would risk making life more difficult for many currently successful establishment conservative types. His ideas rightly scare a lot of people, but it doesn't mean his ideas are bad.

Freedom and not being able to control others, losing power, does scare people.

Of course Ron is considered crazy by the establishment RINO's, Democrats, and Trumpists/MAGA'ers. He is a libertarian, after all, which is at odds with all of that.
I was just about to post that video. But yes, corporate media either spent all their time trying to make Ron Paul look crazy or ignored him. No one stood to profit off Ron Paul. Especially not with his intention to "End the Fed".
The money circled the wagons to make sure he didn't win.

The Paul are anti Fed Reserve. The Fed Reserve's handlers have all the real power in this country.
That is one of the theories.
They might have to go out and contribute to society with someone like Paul in charge rather than getting all their net worth lobbying and sucking from the central banker nipples. . A lot of Americans both extended unemployment tards and stock market asset bubble tards have enjoyed their free money from the central banker milk dispensing the last year. We now vote ourselves candidates who give us something for nothing, and of course those candidates are dependent on the central bankers for their own handouts.
