Yes, you read that correctly: the mainstream
media has swallowed presidential candidate Ron Paul. He's
still in the presidential race, so everyone needs to calm down...but
if you judged by the news headlines from the mass media, that
is definitely not the impression you would get. When he's
mentioned at all - which is rarely, compared to all of
his competitors - the titles range from "With Losses Mounting,
Paul Downsizes Campaign," to "Ron Paul Has Left The Building."
Luckily, they didn't fool us then; and they certainly don't
fool us now.
First of all, here are some solid post-Super Tuesday facts:
- Ron Paul is projected
as the 2nd
place winner in Alaska (98% reporting), 5% behind Huckabee
and 1% ahead of John McCain
- Ron Paul is 1st
place in Montana, whose results are 100% in (Romney would
have beat him at 38% but has dropped out of the race) at 25%,
with John McCain at 22% and Mike Huckabee at 15%
- Ron Paul is currently
tied for 1st
place with John McCain at 13% in Nevada (with 39 precincts
left to report)
- Ron Paul is 2nd
place in North Dakota whose results are 100% in (Romney
had 36%), with John McCain first at 23% and Mike Huckabee
last at 20%
- It is still unclear whether Ron
Paul won
in Louisiana, and what the final
results are for Maine McCain is at 21% and Paul at 18%
(Huckabee just 6%), but >4% of precincts haven't reported
yet, which could put Paul over the top).
- Ron Paul's Congressional
home state Texas has not held their primaries yet; nor has
the key state of Ohio; nor has the state he is from, Pennsylvania
(PA's are not until April 2008)
- There are 22 more states or
US territories left to go.

Well, gee, but none of that is in the
MSM, is it? They've showed clear bias towards the Democratic
party this year, and to the liberally conservative John McCain. Sure, the
media favored Romney for a while as well, but he was just a
casualty in the overall scheme. It's been stated repeatedly
that Paul and Huckabee were "not serious contenders" from the
very beginning, if that makes any sense. If all of this
seems a little bit confusing, you must have missed our article
on Congressman Ron Paul yesterday. Let's catch you up.
Who would stand to profit if candidates offering corporate tax reductions
got elected?
Who would stand to lose if companies were forced to
minimize cheap-labor overseas manufacturing, namely in China,
which Huckabee and Paul both strongly address?
Whom are the companies sponsoring that are doing the censoring?
Who would lose if the Federal Reserve was made to stop us from
printing and spending what we don't have; if the IRS was eliminated,
even?
Who does not want you to hear a word of what Ron Paul has to
say?
Who?
