Didn't really follow this when it was happening, but it seems like the media did a bang up job of ignoring and marginalizing Ron Paul in 2012.

I haven't watched the video but I can tell you the Ron Paul supporters had valid criticisms about the media and the buyout behind the scenes to keep Ron Paul off the front page.

Ron Paul is very popular with poor people.

Looks like the video got deliberately jammed at 3:31.

I'm truly shocked that the politicians may have played dirty pool to try to keep Ron Paul out. I mean, he honestly and fairly swarmed some of the states caucuses in order to get a majority. What's America come to when one politician who gets votes unfairly gets unfairly kicked out?

Geez..


Anybody who thinks enough people would have voted in 2012 to make Ron Paul the president needs to move away from Colorado and quit smoking the funny stuff. It would have been a landslide against him.

The GOP destroyed itself to keep him from getting the nomination.

I think you over estimate Mr. Paul's appeal. The GOP is screwed up because it's a leaderless party with no vision and is constantly put on the defensive by Libturds..

It didn't die fighting Ron Paul...Not by a long shot.

As for the media treating him unfairly, I think you've forgotten Mitt Romney got a pretty raw deal as well.

It wasn't the media alone that scuttled Ron Paul's candidacy.

It was the RNC.

That's why the GOP is no longer viable.

You may not have paid attention to it, but Ron Paul's supporters watched it happen.

They won't be coming back to the GOP.

Consequently,...it's finished.

Disagree with most everything you just said.

I guess a good bye is in order then.

I'm sure the Paulists will continue to split the vote, run candidates without a snowball's chance in Hell of winning and continue putting W's in the Liberal column.

Now that's a record you guys can be proud of.

Maybe your slogan can be:

" We stood against the progressives' and socialists' agendas when no one else would and everything we did helped them succeed..."

3 cheers for the realists.

McCain and Romney are nominees I'm sure you're proud of then.

yet your candidate still lost

the only stupidity is the attempt to blame RP voters for a democrat in the white house.

Ron Paul lost because only a tiny portion of American voters thought his ludicrous political ideas were of value.
