And why did Yahoo delete the first questions posted on this topic earlier?

They are afraid of him.
He voted against the Patriot Act, against regulating the Internet, against the Iraq war!!
He will abolish the IRS!
They are terrified by Ron Paul!
That is why they fight to censor him.
But they will fail !
Because WE THE PEOPLE will decide who will be the president!

I was quite disappointed when I noticed this. I've been a yahoo fan for 10-15 years. Yahoo has been my email and home page since the beginning of the internet. I enjoy the content quite a bit, I even had a Yahoo credit card for a few years.
Yet on the election page, they have a drop down list of NINE republican candidates, ONE is missing. Why is Ron Paul the only candidate that's been omitted. It's one thing if they only included the top 3-4 but they have ALL the candidates, except ONE. Ron Paul.
I spent a few minutes looking for a related comment/feeback page so I could ask the same question, but I couldn't find one.
I thought at least the internet was free from this form of censorship, apparently not.
***As of Friday May 11th Ron Paul now has a section on Yahoo's election page. I'm very pleased with Yahoo's decision to include Ron Paul. ****

Yahoo being the provider of this site has a right but Ron Paul is entitled to be included on the list.
VOTE for your choice as US President on my 360 degrees blog and know if Ron Paul must be included.

It goes to show us just how corrupt the media and some main stream internet sites are with buy out and payoffs. If you look at the msnbc poll about the rep debate you'll see ron paul leads by a lot in every good category. Abc nbc and cbs also didnt give Ron Paul the attention he deserves. Number one reason, He isnt bought by corporate America. He is a true patriot and if anyone cares about their constitutional rights, he would be the no brainer choice.

Look people, if they continue to leave Ron Paul off of their coverage. Ban them. Don't use messenger don't click on their links and get everyone else to boycott as well. It's completely useless to be working with a company that is going to censor candidates be it, the most important to me, Ron Paul or any other number of candidates.

It seems odd for Yahoo to claim they are giving FULL coverage when they exclude so many candidates.

THEY ARE SCARED. Vote Ron Paul, the savior for America.

They (the customer service yahoos) say they deleted the questions and answers to this question because it "violated" their "policies". Except when you read through their policies, of course, it doesn't. But, surprise surprise, they don't reply to e-mails going line-by-line through their "policies" asking for clarification and specific instances of "violation".
