Thank you for the link to the CBS article This is what CBS reports in it: "Fox said it had limited space in its studio - a souped-up bus - and that it invited candidates who had received double-digit support in recent polls" Well FOX is just going to have to make room in the bus for Ron Paul. 100,000 people donated cold hard cash to his campaign, for each one who did, there are 50 who support Ron Paul just as passionately and work for him in other ways. I am no supporter of Duncan Hunter, but I am for equal playing field. Let both be in the debate! Let us have democracy!! Love, Lulu GO RON GO!!!
Fox News, and its non news affiliated channels, does "own their channel", but WE own the airwaves thru which they are broadcast. They use the airwaves for free, with one requirement being a certain ammount of news related coverage.
I'm sick of ignorant Americans who allow the media conglomerates to direct our elections and politics. If Ron Paul received the same recognition from the media as Rudy, Mitt, McCain and Huckabee, he'd be at or near the top. Why are the "leading" Republican candidates ahead in the polls but waaaay behind in financial contributions (number of people and total $$)? How did Huckabee, a former governor of a small state with no name recognition, suddenly vault into the lead in a couple of weeks? The media embraced him when they saw their other horses, Rudy and Mitt, flailing. Positive stories flooded our airwaves from every right and center media outlet and the mindless, predictable lemmings ate it up and fell in line, like they always do.
If this is a democratic government.. Why are we trying to export it all around the world?? The fredom message will not be silenced, a movement has started that will not go away untill victorty is obtained. Its bred into Americans.
