DISMISSING RON PAUL

It is clear from this article that the powers-the-think-they-are are very afraid of Ron Paul. This is just one of several articles which have appeared all at the same time trying to sell the idea that Ron Paul's popularity is a manufactured illusion that exists only on the internet. This of course ignores his recent fundraising success, and the very obvious support that shows up at every public venue where Ron Paul speaks.

There is also a certain arrogance displayed in these articles which implies that the internet is somehow not part of the real world, and of course, an implied message that the mainstream media is somehow more to be trusted than the internet, even though the media repeated without question the myth that Iraq had nuclear bombs, while the internet blogs reported correctly that the claims were bogus.

As I mentioned before, the current media-war is not just about Ron Paul. At stake is the future direction of American politics and whether the US Mainstream Media will continue their self-appointed role of pre-screening all candidates before the voters ever set foot in the polls, or if We The People will restore our right to choose for ourselves which candidates shall be on the ballots.
