Bingo. For-profit media always has it's own agenda to attend to.

You mentioned no one is talking about RP or mentioning his key endorsements ANYWHERE.. I'm pointing out how FOX seems to be the only ones doing this. MSNBC, and even Huffington post both have articles on his Davis endorsement. The link I gave you from MSNBC article was strictly reporting, non bias, non self serving.

RON PAUL 2012. We need a constitutionalist in office. I will be very surprised if he does get elected though. Some bull**** is going to happen like when bush got elected.

Hopefully people start waking up and see what's actually going on.

Take what you hear from Alex Jones with a grain of salt. I do believe a lot of "conspiracies" have merit and should not be so easily dismissed, but some of the things he says is way out there.

Nom Chompsky has written and talked about the American media propaganda machine.

The Revolution has already started.

It's not about Ron Paul. He is the frontrunner of this Revolution, but it's not the man, it's his ideals. That is why the Establishment will not be able to stop this. You can kill a man, but not his ideas.

I personally think these things like the NDAA and SOPA are created because the Establishment knows that more and more people are joining the disenchanted. They are no longer happy with the way this country is being run.

I only assumed FOX were the ones ignoring him based on what I've seen w/ them "messing up" his poll numbers and me not being able to find anything about the Davis endorsement from them.

So who's ignoring him?

What sources do you use for your news?

FOX is ignoring him and smearing him. It depends on the pundit, and nearly all of the mainstream ones are against him. Chris Wallace has continuously dismissed him. Only a few go against the grain. Judge Napolitano is a Constitutionalist, so it's not big surprise that he so adamantly endorses Ron Paul.

Throughout the debates and the last two primaries I have done a search for "Ron Paul" on Youtube nearly every day. I set it to show most recent results. I have seen every single interview with Ron Paul, watched every debate, and listened to all of the media commentary on Ron Paul.

I get my news from a few Youtube channels and the Drudge Report. I don't have TV in my house.

So rather then just watch FOX or MSNBC you use a site that makes millions off of picking and choosing what articles to link created by MSNBC and FOX.

Good luck.

Many, myself included, are not fans of libertarianism. I believe that Ron Paul would leave such a bad taste in America's mouth that it would be very unlikely that we'd get another "third party" candidate.

The internet, unfortunately, is a bit of an echo chamber when it comes to Ron Paul, however. I'd suggest stepping out of that and doing some serious reading.

For starters, http://world.std.com/~mhuben/pk-is-against-liberty.html
