I'd call this harassment. Just an example.

I too, am skeptical of Ron Paul. Too much disturbing information about him--also, he seems to be able to operate 'freely' without being harassed like others that go against mainstream stances. Check out this compilation of info on him: http://www.thebereanchronicles.com/n...gns_mason.html

I'm sorry, but it is absolutely ludicrous to say he does it without being harassed. Everytime he apears on a talk show he is harassed and not given a chance to speak. Brb I'll find some links.

This is an even better example.

Congressman Ron Paul Is set to finally announce his presidential campaign for 2012.

Source: http://dailypaul.com/

The Texas congressman will make his announcement from New Hampshire during the 7:00 a.m. hour of ABC’s “Good Morning America.” Paul is then scheduled to speak at 10:00 a.m. in Exeter, part of a two-day swing through New Hampshire following a stop in Iowa. Paul will also be keynoting the Grafton County Republican Memorial dinner on Friday night.

Paul has already taken several incremental steps toward a full-fledged campaign, most recently opening an Iowa campaign office north of Des Moines earlier this week. He also recently raked in more than $1 million during a one-day online "money bomb" ahead of the first GOP presidential debate, demonstrating the continued strength of the grassroots fundraising machine that turned heads during his 2008 campaign.

=== Post Update ===

To all of you who read this:

Would there be interest to cover the road to the primaries for Ron Paul on this forum? Please share your thoughts on this? I don't mind posting a lot of the information that comes out, since I like the topic a lot and will follow it anyway.

I hope he will be selected, and appoint Jessa Ventura as his partner in the campaign. Thanks for sharing the news.

[Lord Sidious]

Jesse won't go with him as he opposes the political party machine.
Or so he has said.

It is often said that a convert to a cause is more fervent than those born to it. That is probably true about me and my "conversion" as an immigrant to this great country.

In that spirit of passionate desire for my adoptive land to become everything it was meant to be, may I humbly suggest, America, that Ron Paul is Your Man.

Just a few years ago, I was excited to follow Obama's success in the hope that he would undo the worst of the un-American shenanigans of the Bush administration, including the abrogation of rights of American citizens, the killing of citizens of lands that don't threaten us and the wholesale transfer of wealth from those that create it and play by the rules to those that do neither of those two things.

Ron Paul's world is quite different from that offered by almost any other American politician. In his world, neither the president nor the Congress gets to impose their preferences on 300 million citizens through the monopoly of force that is government, because Paul knows that the government has no such authority. Paul's world is a world based fundamentally on the principle of non-aggression, which is simply, "I may disagree with you but I do not get to use force, including the force of law, to impose my will on you as long as you harm no one." This principle is a philosophical one. It precedes politics -- and that is why it allows Paul to transcend the bankrupt left-right paradigm.

If he sticks with the republicanuggets?
Don't know, I hope he loses in that case.
If he goes independant?
Don't know but I would hope he wins.

Republican/Democrat, I was under the impression when all is said and done they're basically the same? I'll be watching with interest.

The only real difference is method, the goal is the same as they both work for the same master.
The idea as I explain it is death by shooting, death by hanging, same outcome, differnt roads.

[Teresa]

Yes, as I thought. Anyway Go Ron Paul.

[Gustav]

I think they might be in contact, but as Paul in my opinion is steering in shallow waters he has to be careful to give any opportunity to any msm puppet to start harassing him. On the other side of the argument, he never cared for that, but you could argue more is at stake. I think these questions will come up only after a few succesful primaries for him. At least in public. "knowing" Paul a little bit it would not surprise me if he hasn't thought about the matter of a running mate already.

Straight from the horses mouth during Ron Paul's campaign launch on the Good Morning America show with George Stephanopoulos " Running as an independent here is just about impossible unless your a billionaire like Ross Perot... you don't get on debates... if I was an independent George you would not have me on this program this morning" This was Ron's response to why he's not running as an Independent. Ron's also known to be at odds with much of the Republican party on many issues, he carried on to say " I've been a Republican for all these years... There's nothing wrong with nudging the Republicans to a true constitutional position and stick to there guns on fiscal conservatism " So there you have it.. it all sounds very promising but we know what happens to candidates once elected to president. I have faith in him... do you ? If so, show your support far and wide... This could be a revolution in the making.

Would you try to dilute 100 tons of effluent with one drop of pure water?

All Ron Paul needs is a miracle...
