RON PAUL EXCLUDED IN IOWA CENSORED BY FOX

Fox Tells Why They Excluded Ron Paul from NH Debate

Media Blacklisting Ron Paul?

Why is it that I have not heard Ron Paul’s name on TV in days? Yes, he’s done the odd morning show here and there but there is no regular mention AT ALL – its as if he doesn’t exist on mainstream media and I’m not happy. CNN Politics cannot even be asked to keep their information up-to-date. Take the the fundraising section of their Iowa Caucus site as an example http://edition.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/candidates/ron.paul.html – it hasn’t been updated since September! Also Fox News has received countless complaints about their decision to exclude Ron Paul in their closed circuit debates between Republican candidates.

Belief in Ron Paul rallies young volunteers in Iowa

“The thing that nobody notices in the polls is that 60 percent of the people have still never heard of him,” said 19-year-old Matt Strunk of Vero Beach, Fla. “So once his message gets out, that’s really all it takes for him to win.”

BOONE, Iowa — The polls say one thing. The Pauls say another.

Despite surveys indicating that a Ron Paul presidency is about as likely as a balmy January day in Iowa, young supporters who have flocked to the Lake Jackson Republican’s campaign remain upbeat as Thursday’s Iowa caucuses approach.

“Do I expect him to be president? I think so,” said John Zambenini, a 22-year-old Dayton, Ohio, native who became the campaign’s Iowa spokesman in October, a month after he first heard the name Ron Paul. “I think the more Americans know about Ron Paul, they will realize we cannot afford not to have him as president.”

Paul’s Iowa campaign claims more than 300 volunteers from 39 states and four foreign countries. Most are bivouacked at seven camps across the state and driven into towns for door-to-door campaigning.

“It’s like herding cats,” said Jeff Frazee, a Houston native and Texas A&M graduate who is Paul’s national youth coordinator.

Sunday at a YMCA Camp in Boone rented by the campaign, Frazee gave the 8:30 a.m. pep talk to volunteers who signed up for “Ron Paul’s Christmas Vacation in Iowa.”

For Texan Brittney Lowery, 20, the Paul camp is a combination of love and politics. It is, she said, “sort of our honeymoon.” Lowery and Adam Weibling, who’s also here, got married Oct. 5.

“I’ve never done anything like this before,” Lowery, a University of Houston student, said of campaigning for Paul.

In the face of polls that say otherwise — such as an MSNBC/McClatchy poll released Saturday that showed Paul in sixth place among the GOP hopefuls — the young people who gather here are convinced President Ron Paul will take the oath in January 2009.

“The thing that nobody notices in the polls is that 60 percent of the people have still never heard of him,” said 19-year-old Matt Strunk of Vero Beach, Fla. “So once his message gets out, that’s really all it takes for him to win.”

Texas Tech senior Kevin McBride of Bridgeport says Paul will win because “the alternative is unacceptable.”

The enthusiasm is stoked by a campaign that says the stakes are high.

“Iowa is a key state in the political process,” according to the campaign’s in-house guide to the caucuses, “and Ron Paul may be our last hope for America.”

Dayton native Zambenini came to Iowa with recent experience in accomplishing uphill goals a little at a time. After graduating from Asbury College in Kentucky in May, he got on his bike in Norfolk, Va., and pedaled until he reached San Francisco 53 days later.

At 22, he typifies Pauldom, categorizing himself as a Republican who is “quite disenfranchised with the war and things like that” and fed up with President Bush.

“Finally,” he said of Paul, “a candidate I felt like I could get behind.”

Bank Predicts Ron Paul Will Win Presidency

Denmark-based Saxo Bank predicts Ron Paul presidency in 2008, saying US economy will plunge into a depression prior to the election.

(PressTV.ir) – The Bank predicted that Ron Paul, US congressman and Republican presidential candidate, will win the US 2008 presidential election.

Saxo Bank says the US economy will shrink by 25% and the Chinese economy will decrease by 40%. The economic downturn will come about as a result of the housing crash.

Ron Paul has been critical of the Federal Reserve and has blamed the Federal Reserve for causing the real estate bubble and crash. Paul has said that the loose monetary policy of the Fed had artificially inflated real estate prices which lead to the collapse.

Paul supports ‘Sound Money’ and opposes the Federal Reserve’s ‘Inflation Tax’ and says that he wants to prevent a dollar collapse.

Saxo Bank also predicts $175 a barrel for oil and the price of grain will double. Some have predicted that oil will climb to $250 a barrel if the US attacks Iran. The bank also predicts that 30% of large building companies will go bankrupt.
