Media Coverage on Ron Paul – With Emails
As you will see from the attachment Ron Paul is getting a lot of attention, just not from the media. He was the 2nd most searched on Yahoo.com last week. (Side Note: Yahoo is 2nd to search engines after google.com.) The Neo Cons own most of media outlets so in turn he gets little attention. Check it.
Here are the emails that later accompanied this image:
All,
I know some of you might not be into politics and to be honest I wasn’t either until recently once I realized the state of this country and how it is quickly nosediving. This is being caused by several factors you may have heard of recently in the news such as the very expensive war (which seems very pointless at times), the broken borders, cost of poor health care, the value of the dollar is hitting all time lows, gas prices continue to rise, the housing market has taken a crap (Side Note: The last two are cornerstones of our economy) etc. In 2007, I purchased my first home and started my first business. So what happens in this country is an even bigger deal to me now and that should be the same with anyone who intends to live in this country.
This email was initiated today when I was speaking with my grandmother about Ron Paul and she has never even heard of him. As have many others have recently spoken with.
If you take a second and look at the attachment Ron Paul is getting a lot of attention; just not from the media. He was the 2nd most searched on Yahoo.com last week (Side Note: Yahoo is 2nd most popular search engine after google.com) and on December 16th he broke the fund raising record by raising over 6 million dollars in one day. Problem is the NeoCons own most of media outlets and if elected he won’t fall in place w/their agendas like Bush and Clinton have for the past two decades. So Ron Paul is viewed as a threat and in turn he is silenced. I’m not a conspiracy theorist either, but facts are facts and anyone can find them if you look close enough.
Here is some great online information about Ron Paul. If you haven’t heard of him check him out. He is a constitutionalist and the only person I think that can turn this country around. If you think everything is running on cruise control in the right direction, it’s time to wake up.

So if we have your attention now. Make sure you are registered as a republican, so you can vote for Ron Paul.
Ronald Ernest “Ron” Paul (born August 20, 1935) is a Republican United States Congressman from Lake Jackson, Texas, a physician, and a 2008 U.S. presidential candidate. Originally from Green Tree, Pennsylvania, he has represented Texas districts in the U.S. House of Representatives (1976–1977, 1979–1985, and 1997–present). Paul placed a distant third in the 1988 presidential election, running as the Libertarian nominee while remaining a registered Republican. After his 1961 graduation from Duke University School of Medicine and a residency in obstetrics and gynecology, he became a U.S. Air Force flight surgeon, serving outside the Vietnam War zone.
Paul has been described as conservative, Constitutionalist, and libertarian.[2] He advocates an attenuated, non-interventionist foreign policy, having voted against actions such as the Iraq War Resolution, but in favor of force against terrorists in Afghanistan. He favors withdrawal from NATO and the United Nations. Having pledged never to raise taxes, he has long advocated ending the federal income tax and reducing government spending by abolishing most federal agencies; he favors hard money and opposes the Federal Reserve. He also opposes the Patriot Act, the federal War on Drugs, and gun control. Paul is strongly pro-life, advocates overturning Roe v. Wade; and affirms states’ rights to determine the legality of abortion.[3]
Throughout his 2008 presidential campaign, Paul has been a leading candidate in Republican straw polls, though he has substantially lower numbers in landline opinion polls. He has strong Internet support, leading in web searches and YouTube subscriptions. On December 16, 2007, Paul had the largest one-day fundraiser in U.S. political history, raising over $6 million in 24 hours through a grassroots effort, organized independently from the official campaign.
Huckabee WATCH OUT FOR THIS GUY! (Feeling sorry for a rapist – but that’s ok, because he recently announced he is a God-fearing man. That, as we have seen gets you a lot of votes in some parts!): http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=NTcyMTM5YzRiMzVjMjA3MGEwMjUwM2Y3NGJiMzM1YWY=

SECOND EMAIL:
All,
I hate to bother you with my emails but I fell obligated to share with people the news I read in hopes that it would get people to pay better attention to what is really going on in this country.
Fox News is not allowing Ron Paul to debate their New Hampshire debate on Sunday. “Because of his lackluster showing in the polls, he will not be invited to participate in Sunday’s Fox News/New Hampshire Republican Party debate, a key event before next week’s New Hampshire primary.” This is EXACTLY what I was talking about in my previous email earlier this week (If you didn’t get it, I reposted it below). It’s been obvious for years that Fox News has leaned more towards the Neo Conservative side of things but this is just too obviously bias. The don’t want him to win, they don’t want him to be heard, the don’t want America to wake up and see that this country is walking a doomed path. Because the rich get richer and poor become more poor. There will be no middle class soon. So they wont’ give him a shimmer of the spotlight that Huckabee is currently riding (A man that sympathizes with a rapist, had a very low approval rating much like Bush currently has and has voted to raise taxes several times over). Paul received a fifth-place/10 percent of the GOP vote in Iowa’s caucus last night, ahead of Rudy Giuliani, who received 3.5 percent! He’s also ahead of Fred Thompson in New Hampshire polls, polling 7 percent to Thompson’s 2 percent. THEN GET THIS! Both Giuliani and Thompson still appear to be invited to Sunday evening’s debate sponsored by Fox News and the New Hampshire Republican Party. Paul is not, because he is a threat!
“Given Ron Paul’s support in New Hampshire and his recent historic fund-raising success, it is outrageous that Dr. Paul would be excluded,” said campaign manager Kent Snyder.

http://www.lewrockwell.com/woods/woods72.html <<< The Republican candidates’ forum held on June 30th which was sponsored by the Iowa Christian Alliance and Iowans for Tax Relief did not invite Ron Paul either. What is going on!??!?!
Look, heres the thing. In the past they; the people pulling the strings would have had to silenced a threat like Ron Paul (once they became too big to control) through an act of violence. As they did with Jesus Christ, Ghandi, Martian Luther King, JFK, Bobby Kennedy, Abe Lincoln and many others that offered sensible change. Now the media, the corporate sponsors, evangelicalists, special interest groups, etc. are so powerful they can silence him by not allowing coverage to be made. That’s why I respect Glen Beck – who gave him an hour and GB will cover just about anything if challenged. Then you will get someone like Bill O Reilly, who will invite him on the show just to speak over and insult him (typical of BOR).
Then, I drive around Phoenix and I can count 15 Ron Paul signs within a mile of leaving my house (not counting the two in my front yard). However, I haven’t seen one for Obama, Hillary or Huckabee. Does that seem a bit confusing?
Lastly, I apologize if you received this email and it’s insulting to you. I just want Americans to wake up before it is too late.
Best,
PS: In the last email, I mentioned that you needed to be registered as a Republican to vote for a Republican. However, my good friend informed that you can be registered as an Independent and vote either way, but it has to be one way or the other. You can not vote for Republican and Democrat candidates.

Welcome to the New America
Bill O Reilly is making money of this now with “Don’t Taze Me Bro” shirts and bumper stickers. I gave Bill a try (for a few years now) because I like to be fair w/the media I digest but I can’t listen to him anymore. He is a grade A piece of shit.
