i had never heard of Ron Paul,
until i heard that someone was trying to censor Ron Paul...
The Streisand Effect kicked in, and so i wanted to hear for myself, what Ron Paul had to say...
and the things that Ron Paul said, kinda blew me away, and it puzzled me greatly as to WHY the media was actively censoring him.
the censorship, un-personing, the de-platforming, was every day.
if there was a TV news poll of leading candidates, Ron Paul's name would "accidentally" get left off the poll.
Ron Paul would be excluded from debates, etc.
They even went so far, as to fabricate a "Santorum Surge" to artificially inflate Rick Santorum's Iowa Caucus poll numbers into 2nd place, as a way to keep Ron Paul out of 2nd place,
but when you go back, and listen to what Ron Paul says, on almost any subject, you will find that he has a very intelligent, well-informed opinion on the matter.
and thats why he was a threat to the establishment,
and thats why he was censored constantly,
and thats why i had never heard of Ron Paul...
It’s funny that I didn’t like Trump at first because I felt the GOP was just running another Romney. I was supporting Rand in the primaries.
sure, Rand is interesting, but I was impressed by Trump going after Obama re: the birth cert. That took some balls, and it was clear to me that Trump knew something was bogus there otherwise he would not have been so stubborn about it.
So, I was impressed by Trump even back then, I knew he had balls and DGAF about appearing political.
