Come on Sk – he came in second in the Iowa poll and they flat-out, in-your-face, ignored that. This was blatant media manipulation at the behest of powerful interests. Are you saying some candidates should be ignored, regardless of popularity, because of stances you deem too bizarre? Btw- I agree with you about the gold standard.[/quote]
I’m absolutely not saying that. I was just challenging the assertion that he’s continually showed up at the top of polls. I don’t believe he has. He came in 2nd in Iowa, which did warrant a whole lot more coverage. He’s not, and will never be a favorite of the powerful Republican party interests, so their subsidiary at Fox News will barely give him the time of day. That doesn’t excuse the other news entities. He did deserve more. Conspiracy? Eh. I don’t know. Old and wrinkled and wacked will never be the hot seller that pretty and wacked is. Maybe if he had bulging eyes or bigger tits he’d get further.
