Ron Paul

STOP THE CENSORSHIP!!

These puppets have been copying RP since the start. Go back and review the debates. I wonder how much hush money the MSM is getting for the censorship of RP!

STOP THE CENSORSHIP! VOTE RON PAUL!

I will be voting for RP. If any of the other three win I will be switching back to Indepent or Democrate. I would rather put up with Hillary, or Obama another 4 years then see any of these goons in office.

STOP THE CENSORSHIP! VOTE RON PAUL!

Anyone but Obama please. A non American begging you !

I wish Ron Paul would win.. Unfortunally the most idiotic people always end up winning.. In this case expect Romney or Gingrich.. which leaves me with no option but to vote for Obama

McCain has NO CLUE

@rmccay88 i think your misunderstanding.. this particular debate was in 2008. The data I gave were the polls at the time of this debate. A Paul supporter claimed he wasn't getting enough time in this debate.. Debate time is based upon the popularity of certain candidate, so I was stating that his comment was bias. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

That is an inaccurate data much later in the primary season, obviously since Fred, Rudy, etc. are not on that list. Here is the poll from Real Clear Politics on October 10, 2007 (the equivalent time period of today's election cycle for 2012)

Rudy 29%

Thompson 21%

McCain 13%

Romney 11%

It won't let me copy and paste it since it is html but if you Google "October 2007 gop poll" it is the second link.

@rmccay88 nationwide polling at the time:

McCain> 42%

Romney> 24%

Huckabee> 20%

Paul> 5%

Debates follow popularity trends among the candidates so people will get a chance to hear from the candidates they want to hear from the most.. I think if Paul were leading and someone like Romney were low in polling numbers, you wouldn't be calling it corrupt media. That's just a bias statement on your part. Nothing against Paul, but if he wants more media coverage, or debate time.. get more supporters.

Ron Paul must be listening to these douchebag drones and thinking, "Is this real life?"

c'mon people! dont you see we all getting played in this game called elections? people who become presidents dont do what they told they "will do"! so i came to conclusion that president office in USA is not the very important office. this country's domestic and foreign policies are determined by those who select presidents, we dont see them on tv, they create news
