Well, at least CNN is giving the man some coverage, unlike say Fox-

Interesting that the Republicans could not find any room for a guy who finished 2nd in numerous states.

    Republicans have never been very inclusive of those in their party. Look have the treated McCain in '99 & '00. Even Kucinich got to speak at the DNC. Ron Paul would probably get booed, a shame.

    Yeah, I was just going to say the same thing.
  • None of you leftists have the right to even speak Ron Paul's name, let alone feel sorry for him.

    :D
    All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

    It is a shame, and a disservice to the people of this country, that the media has not paid more attention to Ron Paul. You may not agree with some of his policies, but the man is right about how our government operates. If we really want to get this country back on the right track we need to start listening to people like Ron Paul.
    "When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads." - Ron Paul
  • Ron Paul is too much change. I'd estimate he's about 20 years ahead of his time.

    Some (a lot) of people have to catch up in the evolutionary sense...
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.
