When people find out about my support for presidential candidate Ron Paul, it usually results in a short debate in which it quickly becomes obvious they don't really know much about Ron Paul or his ideas. Most people just believe what the old media has been telling them, which unfortunately, typically paints Ron Paul as a kooky longshot. So, to help people get up to speed on Dr. Paul, I've gathered a few resources (shown below) that should allow people to quickly decide whether they should give this candidate further consideration.

Watching the campaign of Ron Paul has been very interesting so far. The most frustrating part is seeing, despite his incredible success on the campaign trail and on the Internet, the mainstream media continue to downplay his importance. It leaves most of us wondering if there really is some sort of conspiracy between the major political parties and the media.

I'd prefer the explanation to be plain old capitalism: that the media simply wants to cover the candidates they think people want to hear about. And most of the mainstream polls show Dr. Paul as a long-shot to win the nomination (Yes, I think, as many people do, that those polls are flawed, but that's a story for another day).
