Ron Paul Weekly Update - February 26th thru March 3rd




Ron Paul 2012 Podcast show

Summary: Well, the campaign soldiers on- anyone else getting sick of the media driven machine politics? Coverage of the Ron Paul 2012 campaign continues to diminish, as the stories abound of many voters who are of the impression that the Congressman has dropped out. Politico's Dylan Byers has reported that all of the networks, with the exception of MSNBC, have pulled their full-time campaign embedded reporters. CNN has virtually ended any streaming of Dr. Paul's well-attended campaign events (while covering up to three Newt Swingrich event per day). Yet the Congressman continues to shoot for caucus victories, and continues to travel the country stumping for the cause of liberty and the vision of the founders. The usual suspects continue to pose the Romney-Paul alliance conspiracy theory- as if Rick Sanctimonium represents a more honest conservative option for Republican voters.
