I don’t think there’s a conspiracy by the press.

The corporate press promotes corporate interests, it’s not a conspiracy, it’s business. If somebody goes against those interests, they will not fair well – regardless of what they look like.

Unlike RP, Michele Bachmann is telegenic. She’s got “star qualities.”

I bet if the corporate media told you that people really liked Ron Pauls “down home”, “good old boy” qualities which is way he was winning all the straw polls you would be repeating it. People are really easy to tell them what to think

But the memes about RP are that he is not telegenic and boring, I’ve seen that repeated like 20 times on blogs in the last month.

Lets try something out Brian – tell everybody you know that RP is winning all the straw polls because people really like his “small town doctor appeal” it really plays in the heartland and red states, you know. I bet if we say it enough, we can get other people to say it.
