Ron Paul Moving Up In The Polls? Not According To The Media!

ron paul

Ron Paul is subject to the most undeniable media blackout in history. A recent CNN article on the latest FOX news debate which Ron Paul WON, had no mention of Ron Paul in any way shape or form, and the accompanying photograph showed all the candidates EXCEPT Ron Paul. Did I mention that he WON the debate? And by a large margin. This is partly why I have chosen to devote so much time to letting people know about Ron Paul.

In recent "official" polls that once showed him at 0%, Ron Paul is now polling at 7.4%. And this is in automated phone polls where they do not even mention his name. it goes something like this. "If you would vote for Jilly Anny press 1, for Thompson press 2, for Romney press 3, for McCain press 4, for Huckabee press 5. For any other candidate, press 6." The user then hears an extensive list of all the other candidates with Ron Paul strategically placed last.

The official polls though are all showing the power of the media, and how completely out of touch with reality the media is. The media wants to elect the next president on your behalf. So they continue calling Ron Paul a no-chance runner whenever they rarely mention him. While their polling shows Jilly Anny as the front runner, in straw polls all over the nation, Jilly Anny usually comes dead LAST. The bias of the media is ridiculously overwhelmingly obvious.

One person I know questioned why I supported Ron Paul and said this, "I'd rather shot myself in the foot then vote for Ron paul or follow a politcal trend that the ARTS people are doing. Bro He is not a righteous kind of guy." So deep is the media's success in their portrayal of a man that some have called the next Thomas Jefferson. Not righteous. What's interesting about this comment is that his very righteousness is nearly the reason given by everyone I meet FOR supporting him. He is the most righteous politician we have seen in a very long time. It is to be noted, that all the Republican candidates are lawyers, except one, Ron Paul. Ron Paul is a Doctor. And as others have said, America is sick, and needs a Doctor.

Some might not have realized that Ron Paul is a passionate born again believer in Jesus Christ. Why have you not heard this before? Because Ron Paul refuses to use his faith as political leverage, unlike every other candidate. Even Jilly Anny tried to tell the conservative voters that he was a Christian. Oh PUHLEESE. So I went searching for something from Ron Paul to verify his Christian position. I found it quickly on a website call Christians for Ron Paul. On this site he has a statement of faith which reads in part:

"I have never been one who is comfortable talking about my faith in the political arena. In fact, the pandering that typically occurs in the election season I find to be distasteful. But for those who have asked, I freely confess that Jesus Christ is my personal Savior, and that I seek His guidance in all that I do. I know, as you do, that our freedoms come not from man, but from God. My record of public service reflects my reverence for the Natural Rights with which we have been endowed by a loving Creator."

There is no reason to doubt Ron Paul's sincerity. He is a righteous believer of the living God and pulls no punches in saying so. The language he uses is no wishy washy, "I believe in a loving God" sort of rhetoric we get from the other candidates. Ron Paul is a man of incredible Christian integrity, who will lead this nation in prayer and guidance as he seeks the will of Christ in all his decisions. Not even Huckabee would DARE to declare such a thing

Talking about Huckabee. Some have asked why not him. Good question. And my answer is, for so many reasons. Not in any order, but lets see. He's against any timetable for troop withdrawal from Iraq. He is prepared to lead this nation to war against Iran. Well, there goes his "Christian" legitimacy right there. Huckabee does not stand a chance against Clinton. In every debate Clinton would eat Huckabee for breakfast. Clinton would win the presidency. Many have been saying recently, and I agree, Ron Paul is the only candidate that will be able to stand his ground against Hillary. Ron Paul's encyclopedic level of knowledge of American politics in seemingly every domain will not just give him leverage in the debates, it's so strong that he will positively win every debate against her, as he has been doing already against his fellow Repubicans. The Clinton's have been in politics for 15 years. Ron Paul, 30. He's as sharp as a tack and he knows exactly what he's doing.

As believers, we should feel more than comfortable supporting Ron Paul in his race for the Presidency. He's the only candidate in perhaps a hundred years that is causing passionate party devotees to abandoned their party for the primaries in order to vote for Ron Paul. I have seen this first hand several times. He has earned the trust of the American public. Even while the media continues to suppress him to the fullest extent possible.

There's one important consideration though that I have yet to mention. Electability. There's simply no point in voting for a candidate who is polling even at 7.4%. You would waste your vote to do so. And here's where the media suppression is so noticeable. Straw polls are generally a much better indication of reality as it only polls people that are actually likely to vote on election day. Telephone polls are nothing more than popularity contests, and since most have yet to learn of Ron Paul, he will of course come in very low, though 7.4% is quite respectable, so that is now changing as more people recognize the name and come to understand the intense media blackout.

So how is Ron Paul doing in straw polls? It would be great if by now he was coming in fifth place or even fourth place. This would show that he is a genuine contender for the Presidency and is "electable". Many people would be shocked to learn if Ron Paul was actually coming in THIRD place on average in the straw polls. Yet, in a way to so clearly reveal his electability, his popularity, and the reality of the media blackout, Ron Paul has consistently come in FIRST PLACE in nearly every straw poll conducted throughout America. Indeed, at a recent republican debate, Ron Paul was not even able to attend, and had no representation there whatsoever, yet he still won the polling at the end of the night. Let me say that again for clarification. Ron Paul won a straw poll after a republican debate that he nor any representative for his party had even attended. And yet, yet again, the media ignores Ron Paul. Most headlines read, "Romney loses straw poll". Here is an example from MSNBC.

Just to add some real meat to this, here are the official results of Ron Paul's placing in recent straw polls. Pay extra careful attention to the smaller chart down the bottom of the page. The American media are the dirtiest rotten scoundrels. They play with us. It's all a game for them. They choose the President, and we just do what were told. Well enough of that. It's time for a rEVOLution. It's time to elect the true conservative, the true Christian, the true leader. Ron Paul.

You may have watched this video before, but if so, watch it again, and stop letting the media dictate your choice of a President for this great nation.
