Truth

Most main stream media journalists do have the same agenda,and that agenda is not reporting the truth but reporting what they are paid to report.

Easy!!!

Here we go again. Just as they did to Ron Paul. The MSM is now avoiding Chuck Baldwin. What are they afraid of? Visit Ron Paul II - Chuck Baldwin is the Constitution Party Candidate. He worked on the Ron Paul campaign and is now carrying the Ron Paul Patriot Flag up the hill.

Count me as a write in

McCain flip flops with his given audience and I am irked with the lack of fair media coverage Dr.Paul got and the way the GOP has 'chosen' McCain as the 'presumitive' Republican Candidate. Had the primaries been fair, I seriously doubt this would have been the case. My vote will go with Ron Paul and as a choice for VP, I will go with Dennis Kucinich. I think both of these men would guide America back to her roots and her Sovereignty. Paul and Kucinich would complement each other in their duties. I also believe that both of these patriots would live up to their Oath to defend America against all enemies both foreign and domestic. With this past Administration, it is hard to tell who the real enemy is. It is time to have a President and staff that puts America first. How can a good mother feed her child when she herself is starving? Well ditto for America. We are losing our identity and it is up to the people to recognize and reverse this error made by allowing politicians to poison our very roots with their 'fear tactics' and methods of controlling the people. McCain and Obama are leading us right into the NAU. Dr. Paul will openly discuss this issue, while the other's sidetrack and deny it. All other points are mute if we loose our borders and thus our Constitution. And that is exactly why I will stand beside Dr. Paul up to and well beyond the November elections. It is not too late to reclaim our Great Nation.

WOW

I for one will definetly be writing in Ron Paul in November, I have never voted before because there was never anyone that moved me in such a way to even get interested in politics. I have views, and strong values, and do believe we need some government because even though it would be nice if everyone did right because it's right, instead of being afraid of punishment, under police, government or their religion, it's not that way. I however really understand ron paul's message and he is the only one that is truly different than any of the candidates we have seen in a long time.
