CNN misrepresented Dr. Paul's campaign ad in its transcript.
CNN writes:
"It's up to you to spread this message around this country. This is an American cause, it's a cause of freedom. There's something going on in this country, and it stinks. It really stinks."
Ron Paul's ad actually said "... it's big. It's really big." A much more positive message.

Who else thinks that "certain people" have it out for Ron Paul?

Thank you for informing me and others about another example for how the CNN twist things. And, as I said a few times, Ron Paul is a truthful person, and this is why political cowards are afraid of him.

I do my own research. The news is liberally biased and only likes Hillary.
What I don't believe are the statements from the Paul supporters here on Yahoo. You all claim that he is the "only hope to beat Hillary" and that is a flat out lie! Paul has only a 4% rating and that means that it is IMPOSSIBLE for him to get the nomination.
I don't care that Paul raise lots of money and that they "don't know where to spend it all" (as per Paul last night). When money doesn't increase support, the candidate is in big trouble. He has a 2% increase with the millions he's raised - he's in deep doodoo!

I believe more about what Ron Paul says about the news, rather then what the news says about Ron Paul.

Cynical, Senile, Ornery, Mean, Set in my ways?? Who Me??
Quite possibly.
I do not put a dimes worth of credit to the integrity of ANY news cast, IF there are not 'live, uncensored' occurrences!!!
IF that 'nitwits' news cast is over 2 minuets old, I consider the scenes "polluted / changed / biased"!!!!!!!!!!
Now about Ron Paul. Like everyone of us, he is not perfect, nor are any of the rest of the 'clowns in both parties' !!!
I do appreciate his views on the "fair tax" !!!

Nope, I've formed my own on opinion on him and his policies all on my own. Your point is very valid however, the media has gone to extremes to influence the American public opinion on issues and the day of true reporting the just facts have disappeared.

It's obvious to a Duck.. between all the "He's on the fringe" and "Crazy Man" cat calling, they're sure to dig at his policies.. and that they're not "Traditional" republican issues... whatever the hell that means.. absolutely, the entire power structure is against him, media included....

Ron Paul isn't important enough for the likes of CNN to have it out for him.

I think Ron Paul is too good for the GOP. He actually states logical ideas and that is uncharacteristic of a Con.
