    Because like so many conservatives, they dont have a principled bone in their body.

    They happen to not like his foreign policy nor his commitment to real reductions in spending. Nor his consistent historical accuracy.

    Americans if they heard more of him would happily vote for this guy in large numbers, thats why hes an unacceptable candidate. He exposes the corporate conspiracy at the heart of Republican thinking.

    Are you Americans beginning to understand now how easily you are being lied to? Gladly some of you are...

    While your post is accurate it is very one sided. I guess you didn't notice the leftist newscasters doing the exact same thing in the clip?

    Yup, really shows the bull(*)(*)(*)(*) going on. I really hope he runs and I hope he wins. He has my vote regardless; I'll write him in.

    Ron Paul is not a attractive candidate for the media to cover. His age is a big factor. I think the days of a older president are over.

    Um no not biased, theyre right wing. Just a lesser version than say Fox.

    Theyre all channels that take on GOP talking points, and those dont include Ron Paul. No matter what GOP voters or anyone else says.

    You ever wondered why all these supposedly left slanted channels gave bush such an easy time in the build up to IRAQ 2? Thats rigt, theyre not left sided.

    just because the right tells you that the lame stream media is a liberal bastion of leftism , doesnt make it so. Wake up.

    So you're telling me that MSNBC is right wing? And you expect me to take you seriously?

    MSNBC is not a left leaning organisation historically. Just because it doesnt tell those opposed to war to shut up or patently abuses and insults guests and viewers doesnt make it a lefty organisation.

    Its just the paranoia of the extreme right that makes you think that. Its really always been a more centre organisation. Thats why so many conservative presidents have been elected even when NBC & co dominated the news.

    Just think about it, you dont have to accept everything that Fox tells you.

    Dude I think what he's trying to say is that...

    If your major political candidates...and indeed ALL US candidates because of the funding regulations...can be bought and paid for, then THEY ALL are bought and paid for.

    Nobody's really naive enough to think that major SIGs and the corporations they represent, don't hedge their bets by purchasing both sides...are they?

    We all sit around in here arguing like dogs chasing our own tails. It must be hilarious to some people...

    MSNBC "probably" supported...or at least went along with and shut its journalistic trap...the wars on what amounts to anti-American/NATO sentiment. I don't know for sure, maybe someone else does?
    The point is, the same policy goes for the mass media, as goes for the politicians. HELL I think that media might actually produce a higher profit yield than politicians, from a pure business sense...
    So if your corp is worth HUNDREDS of BILLIONS...or if your a Rockefeller :-D
    you BUY THEM! You buy them ALL.
    How many times have you heard that "If you want real news, watch Al Jezeera." Well...Does anyone think Chase Manhattan owns a significant percentage of Al Jezeera? pro'ly not huh...

    The major point here is ... its all friggin' window dressing.
    Drivel for the masses.
    Half-truths that quite often, do more damage than good.

    What did "Lord Obama" :mrgreen: say on the news today..."Its not the economy that's broken, its our politics that's broken." That's because its all just fluff for hungry little brains to soak-up. None of it really addresses anything of consequence...Look, they made a huge wholly friggin' deal about this debt ceiling...and what? Did they do anything? Not really eh?

    THAT'S THE POINT!!!

    Since this presidental race started, I have been trying to find out why people call him a fringe canidate and unelectable. I have yet to find something that I disagree with him and am now a full fledge Ron Paul supporter.

    Military workers support Ron Paul.

    There is a reason why Ron is getting a huge support from military contributions as well, we are done with these needless wars when there is a very real threat on our southern boarder where we could actually support our own country more.

    Historically? MSNBC has been around what, 15 years at the most?

    Don't take my word for it:
    http://finance.yahoo.com/news/How-MSNBC-is-surviving-after-apf-1989949689.html?x=0&.v=1&.pf=career-work&mod=pf-career-work
    "MSNBC stands for something and MSNBC is really the place to go for progressives and people who are looking for smart, thoughtful analysis. We're growing, and we're putting real effort behind it." --Phil Griffin, President MSNBC​

    Claiming that MSNBC doesn't lean left is just as ignorant as claiming that Fox News doesn't lean right. Quite frankly, you're simply illustrating that you have no idea of what you are talking about. Have you ever even watched MSNBC?
