>The extraordinary lack of coverage of Ron Paul  - Eric de Carbonnel - Market Skeptics
Even if you don't plan on voting for Ron Paul or agree with him... any sane minded American should be concerned about how he is being treated. It should send a chill down your back.

Is the US "nation-building" against Americans?
-- The US picks the contenders in other countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan.
-- The US influences the races in these countries.
-- The US influences the media in these countries.
-- Is this being done to Americans... on US soil?

Also, authoritarian countries routinely bury the news to fit the leadership's agenda. We criticize when these countries do so... but:

Isn't our media guilty of burying the news in regards to Ron Paul? He has a clearly distinctive message that based on polls and public opinion is today THE mainstream opinion (less war, less debt, less invasion of privacy, less fed, less being told what to do...).

It doesn't matter if you don't plan to vote for Ron Paul... The bigger issue for sane, liberty-minded, and free-thinking Americans is that you are being forced to follow the status quo (the complete opposite of the mainstream public opinion), a status quo that does not support your interests, nor does it benefit you.

That is the true story, that's the "scoop", that's the big idea - but media, by ignoring Ron Paul's campaign, is in fact belittling the point of view, desires, and concerns of the American people and ignoring the sound ideas for solving many of America's problems today.

Indeed, the results of that hokey quadrennial exercise in corn-dog politics was used to talk up Michelle Bachmann’s legitimacy... Read More
