As usual, the story of the year is right under their nose and their asleep at the wheel. Wake up! Ron Paul is for real. And we're going to make sure this guy has enough doe to run with or without the nomination. The media has no clue about how many of us Paul supporters are actually out here.

If you look at google polls he is the front runner. The media is brainwashing the citizens of America to vote for the candidate that benefits them the most financially. Listen to Ron Paul's message.

Thanks MSM , for making it so clear to the nation that you are biased and trying so hard to marginalize Ron Paul. By doing this you have awakened the sleeping beast, just what America needs, a good old fashioned revolution, Ron Paul revolution.

He raised the money from a very large group of citizens that feel very strongly about this man. It's not really about Ron Paul as it is about the people actually hearing the truth for once in their lives from a man as equally concerned about the plight of his country as any sane American should. If Ron does not take this thing easily today, then I fear that the 'powers that be' will finally be exposed for the people to see. We do indeed live in interesting times.

He's appealing to Independents and young people who've never voted but who are all of a sudden very mobilized. They're calling registered Republicans who've voted for Bush two times, what do you expect. I do not think there's a conspiracy although we do know for sure that FOX just doesn't like him. Disenfranchised people who usually don't vote usually don't show up at the caucuses. It's the truth. Middle-aged and older people vote. All these people, including myself, have donated to his campaign because finally there is someone who is standing up for us and putting themselves on the line for us. Now we have to do our part and show up tomorrow and in the following few weeks and vote. And tell everyone about him. Tell the people in the real world who don't investigate things on their own. I told three people earlier today about him and they hadn't even heard of the guy. We have to start spreading the word in the real world, because those people vote more than the internet people. That's been the truth so far. Look at Howard Dean. All that cash, all that support, and then 23% in Iowa 4 years ago. It's not that anyone left him, it's that young people don't vote. We need to get out there in hoards and put this guy over the top. Our country deserves it. Look, it makes sense that Ron Paul hasn’t showed up much in the polls.

People in the US "vote" with their money. They vote for which brand of hair conditioner, which type car, even which political candidate they like. In the race for the Republican presidential nomination, America has voted already. Follow the money to the winner. TeaParty07. I really do believe that money talks.

The media has been silencing him from day one. Dr. Paul has a larger and stronger support base than any other candidate. And Ron Paul a longshot candidate? Not hardly. look at the financial support he has raked in based on internet donations alone. He's going up against Thompson, Giuliani and McCain today, and will win. What will be said then? will he still be smeared and ignored by the mainstream media? Keep spreading the message of freedom. We, as die hard supporters of Ron Paul far outnumber the media. First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win. ronpaul2008 Single digits in polls? thats because he is excluded from most every poll.
