A Coordinated Effort Against Paul
Justin Gardner has written a very insightful bit of commentary on Donklephant.com in light of yesterday’s debate results, and also in light of the clear hostility shown against Ron Paul last night by the “conservative” FOX News channel.
The only part of Justin’s article that I strongly disagree with, is his suggestion that we Paulites would do a lot better, if we abandoned the Republican party. Problem is, Third Parties are NOT taken seriously in this country.
But I feel vindicated by Justin’s own recognition of the concerted efforts by media outlets to BURY Ron Paul:
” . . . Seriously, it’s puzzling as to why the public or pundits aren’t taking Paul more seriously. Is it because he doesn’t fit into the mold of what a “conservative” is supposed to be anymore? Is it because his support sprung up from the Internets? What’s the deal?He has hit the nail on the head! What is a revelation to him, is the VERY REASON THAT I STARTED THIS BLOG! It was in order to EXPOSE THIS APPARENT “COORDINATED EFFORT AGAINST PAUL” that Justin speaks of!
And while I didn’t watch the debate, post-mortems like this make me wonder if there really is a coordinated effort against Paul . . .”
