- RPRocks, on 01/03/2008, -34/+335Now we know why it didn't get aired. Ron Paul was to impressive! My god... how can anybody not vote for the kind of logic and reason that comes out of this mans mouth every time he opens it? WAKE UP!!!
- Nosnevets02, on 01/03/2008, -13/+259I thought that was a great interview, Ron Paul got to explain his reasoning pretty well.
- dthomasdigital, on 01/03/2008, -10/+229Is this true, why did it not air?
- dreicher, on 01/03/2008, -9/+195It's not cold outside...that's Ron Paul using his "Super Icy Breath" to turn back global warming!
- dreicher, on 01/03/2008, -6/+185Granted, I'm only in my early 30's, but I've never heard a politician willing to take on ANY question and able to make sense of his position. The intelligence it takes to be able to cull information from 200+ years of history, put it in context and deliver a thoughtful and articulate response to every question is simply awe-inspiring.
I don't necessarily agree with everything Dr. Paul believes, but I will admit more and more regularly I find myself questions "Why don't I agree with him on this or that?" because on the occassions that I do agree with his stance I feel as though he has presented in a way I would if I was much, much smarter than I am.
I do hope this video will see the light of day, either through CNN broadcast or by going "viral" on the web.
I've followed candidates in the past and after hearing their stump speech 2-3x, I could probably get up and finish it for them. Same talking points, same lame jokes and one-liners ad nauseum. But with Dr. Paul, I'm always pleasantly surprised to hear something new and fresh because he's not afraid to go outside his "comfort zone" and speak to any issue. Say what you want about the man's beliefs, but you can hardly deny he is an impressive mind. - ajpalmieri, on 01/03/2008, -10/+188Why are they interviewing him outside? It is obviously cold, you can see Ron Paul's breath.
- thewump, on 01/03/2008, -7/+165If that had aired it could have been great for him in Iowa. Makes you think, doesn't it?
- HugoNaught, on 01/03/2008, -10/+145This is a must see and I hope people pressure the network to air it. Its a real shame it wasn't shown before the Iowa Caucus.
- chrysb, on 01/03/2008, -12/+127It goes to show Ron Paul does not need warm and cushy living. He's a man.
- eris0xff, on 01/03/2008, -10/+122This was supposed to have aired last night. My guess is that they thought it might positively sway the Iowa caucus to Paul. Cowards.
- cerlpbr, on 01/03/2008, -7/+108Can somebody compile CNN email list to send complaints, preferably a long one.
- phatphing, on 01/03/2008, -2/+87It's despicable for CNN and Larry King to take up Dr Paul's valuable time on the night before the Iowa caucus and not air the piece! Absolutely despicable!
I sent Larry King my hate mail, and everyone who feels the same way should do so too. - DeepFriedFetus, on 01/03/2008, -8/+91Probably trying to make him uncomfortable. HA! Ron Paul could give a top notch interview while fighting a sabertooth tiger on stilts and listening to David Hasselhoff's "Jump In My Car".

http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form5.html?75 - Neiby, on 01/03/2008, -6/+82If this didn't air and it was just filmed recently, how (and why) is it on YouTube already?
- blakmira, on 01/03/2008, -8/+81One word: Brilliant!
Ron Paul is a genius.
I'm writing to Larry King to air this.
P.S. Caught a couple of minutes of Suze Orman while channel flipping -- Larry King asked her what presidential candidate she thought would help the economy the most, she said "Oh, I'm sure they all want to help the economy! What president wouldn't??" duhhhh Go back to your mansion bubble, Suze....
RON PAUL should have been on instead of this "financial wizard" airhead"!!!! - hellyes, on 01/03/2008, -3/+75No, it didn't air. They decided to have a full hour with Suze Ormon instead.
- elleanee, on 01/03/2008, -6/+66It's truly frightening to see what MSM is doing to the American people AND has been doing for quite some time. They decide who's going to be President for us. These Presidential puppets have sold our rights down the toilet and the strings keep getting pulled tighter. We must get out of our chairs and get involved in making the changes necessary to take back our country.
Ron Paul and Dennis K (also Mike Gravel) are the only ones telling us EXACTLY like it is and who will help us return this country to the people, to whom it rightfully belongs. - faxxy, on 01/03/2008, -9/+68If this NEVER gets air time, We The People need to call on the MSM on this BS. Mega-blowback for shortchanging us.
Polls Insulting Our Intelligence?
http://PollsPolls.com
The heavy reliance on pre-election, landline, contrived polls by olde media has been damaging to the democratic process, treating the whole process like a horse race.
Imagine what would happen if there were no pre-election polls? Rather than having a small group of people attempting to sway public opinion, we have much a more level playing field. Let the people decide, not the media.
"The 'scientific' polls are the final illusion standing between the American people and the new reality." -Zydeco - bill1233, on 01/03/2008, -3/+58Wow I thought all the mainstream media conspiracy talk was silly but things like this makes you wonder. Why would they NOT AIR this cool video and instead spend an entire hour chatting with Suze Orman?
Go Ron Paul! - gyrfalcon, on 01/03/2008, -3/+57Suze who?
- Neiby, on 01/03/2008, -4/+57Goddamn, some of you people are idiots. Why would you digg down a simple freaking question? This is a reasonable question to ask. If it didn't air then the people who created it are the only people who had copies of it. One of them must have posted it to YouTube. Why would they do that?
- rabidmonkey1, on 01/03/2008, -4/+53Tell Larry what you think - http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form4.html?73
- callinthelaw69, on 01/03/2008, -9/+57So perfect they couldn't air it.
***** you CNN. - MindStalker, on 01/03/2008, -3/+49why? shrugs they might air it. But it was pre-recorded yesterday (before the 9:00 show) and they had Suzy Ormann on the entire show yesterday and never showed this clip. They might show it tomorrow, but I doubt it.
- HugoNaught, on 01/03/2008, -0/+45Its on CNNs website but they didn't air it on television.
- DeviantDragon, on 01/03/2008, -2/+42It's a web exclusive on the site.
http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/larry.king.live/ - iPissExcellence, on 01/03/2008, -2/+42How can it not be on air when it says 'live'? Is Larry King Live not really live?
If this was a stupid question, you're welcome to bury me, but please answer the stupid question also. - TheTaoOfBill, on 01/03/2008, -5/+44Perhaps there is a Ron Paul fan amongst them.
- bkrishnan, on 01/03/2008, -8/+46I'm not American. If you folks in America don't get this guy into the white house, you don't deserve to be one.
- toekneebullard, on 01/03/2008, -0/+38I always thought the "Live" in the corner was a health condition update for Larry King.
- ngross, on 01/03/2008, -6/+43Get that poor man out of the cold!! He's got a big job ahead of him, lets try to keep him healthy!!
- georgemason01, on 01/03/2008, -3/+40Ron Paul doesn't get cold, cold gets Ron Paul.

http://www.cnn.com/feedback/forms/form5.html?75 - Frostman3D, on 01/03/2008, -16/+52Ron Paul is the last best hope for this country.
- kemp34, on 01/03/2008, -3/+38Why would they not show this? Really weak.
- kanabiis, on 01/03/2008, -8/+42If you are in Iowa right now, and a registered Republican and supporter of Ron Paul and you have NOT gone and voted today, YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM, get to your poll and register your voice, or this 'movement' is doomed. TODAY is the day to put your mouth where the money was, and do your part. Cheering Dr. Paul from the sidelines of the internet is one thing. Make a change, make a commitment, and practice what you preach. Give Dr. Paul the legs he needs to spread the message. Don't let the media sideline you and marginalize your voice. VOTE VOTE VOTE
The rest of America waits on bated breath to see the R3VOLution begin. I am in Colorado, I vote next to last in the primary, Please, give me a chance to cast my voice with the rest of the nation. Your vote is critical in insuring that Dr. Paul makes the ballot in my state!!!
Spread this message as far and wide as you can, there are only a few short hours for us to make history! - MindStalker, on 01/03/2008, -2/+34Then lets amend the constitution! :)
But serious if you follow the history of healthcare healthcare was at its best before HMOs because all could get it and those who couldn't afford it weren't sent away, and it was cheap for those who could afford it, very cheap in comparison to today. Government essentially created HMOs via tax breaks, and they have destroyed in individual culture of medicine as well as the availability to it for the poor. - JettaMan, on 01/03/2008, -0/+32Why film an interview and then not air it? I heard ABC pulled the same shennannigans on John Stossell's interview with RP.
- jordanau, on 01/03/2008, -5/+37The MSM is trying to kill him with Pneumonia.
- scubasteve377, on 01/03/2008, -1/+32The also have less than 1.5% of the population of the US and a ridiculously lucrative export (Norway exports the third most oil of any country in the world, behind only Saudi Arabia and Russia) that gives them the second highest GDP per capita. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norway#Economy The US has a roughly 7.5 *thousand* percent larger population and exports paper dollars, military technology, and little else. To anyone with even a fundamental understanding of economics, it should be clear that you are comparing apples to oranges.
- RPRocks, on 01/03/2008, -6/+37Yeah... Dr. Paul and his supporters aren't afraid of a little cold weather. That's why the Old Media will be shocked at how many patriots trudge through the snow to caucus for him tonight. SHOCK AND AWE BABY!!!
- swwinters, on 01/03/2008, -2/+32Classic RP!
- johnb321, on 01/03/2008, -4/+34Great interview. They need to air this. America must understand this message.
- hollowex, on 01/03/2008, -0/+29The department is broken. It's been broken since inception.
- Neiby, on 01/03/2008, -0/+29Well, really, what's more important right now than Suze Orman?
- eris0xff, on 01/03/2008, -3/+29That's a lot of text in support of a position that is logically indefensible. You can't have a right by using violence to take something from someone else. It's as simple as that. Healthcare doesn't grow on trees. People spend years of their life getting a medical degree or many hours of their life paying for medical care. You don't have a right to someone else's money, life, time, or private property. If you're not allowed to do that by force to someone else without going to jail, how do you reason that a group of people (the government) can do it for you by proxy?
Maybe you should instead consider ways to make health care more affordable by everyone. If you want the people that, by no fault of their own, can't get coverage to get health care -- thats called charity. I highly suggest you donate to a needy health care cause.
I await your tightly constructed moral argument.
Good luck. - genericshell, on 01/03/2008, -7/+32He also believes in Jesus and an omnipotent bipolar patient in the sky. This does not invalidate his thoroughly rational approach to government.
- stefyblueyes, on 01/03/2008, -1/+24I don't know of anyone who could live through Hasselhoff's singing.
- cusoman, on 01/03/2008, -26/+49Ugh, seriously... stop saying "wake up". We get the point.
