Again, where is Ron Paul?

In the Republican chart, the blue pie piece is mostly Ron Paul, as the numbers at the bottom show that Paul is tied with Giuliani at 9% [who had his piece in the pie – editor, now that the video has been pulled].

Then they show the Democratic chart, which has no large unnamed area. They even give Richardson his own piece, though he only has 4%.

From: Ron Paul 2008 Campaign Headquarters, Alaska

Dear Anchorage Voters,

Please forward this basic voter’s and delegate guide to all known Ron Paul supporters in Anchorage. This includes friends, neighbors, co-workers, etc. …

I will be setting up a table at the Egan Center to help sign people in, gather supporters, and hand out materials. I’m sure our table will be the biggest/best display.


Yours in Liberty,

Ron Paul 2008

Welcome, Alaskans!

Each year, the Federal government expands and continues to grow far beyond the limits of the Constitution. The Federal government borrows well over 1 billion dollars a day simply to stay afloat. Alaskans who want change should consider Ron Paul on February 5th.

A ten term Congressman, Air Force Captain and Medical Doctor, Ron Paul has a long record of being the most conservative Republican in Congress. Ron Paul votes “no” all legislation that is unconstitutional.

Protect your right to bear arms. Stop the National ID card. End the IRS. Vote Ron Paul 4:30 pm to 8:30 pm on Tuesday, February 5th. To find your polling location visit www.alaskarepublicans.com or www.ronpaul2008.com/states/alaska.

Blatant Anti-Paul Media Bias: CNN Pie Charts [Iowa]

I’m watching CNN’s coverage of the Iowa Caucus, and I’m just amazed at the how blatantly they’re ignoring Ron Paul entirely. I have always considered the bias against him to be the result of his low numbers, but as I’m watching this I can only conclude that they just don’t want him getting attention. Let me explain.

On the screen they have these pie charts showing the percentage of votes for each candidate. The pie chart shows 35% Huckabee, 24% Romney, 14% Thompson, 12% McCain, and then a big gray slice that’s not labeled. Add those up. That’s 85%, which leaves 15% unaccounted for. You would expect this perhaps if that 15% was very evenly split among many candidates. So I looked at CNN.com for the full results. Here’s the shocker: Ron Paul has 11%. Look again at the numbers above. Ron Paul is only 1% behind McCain, who shows prominently in the pie chart on national TV. Giuliani has 4%, and no other candidate shows anything.

Then I look at the Democrat pie chart on TV. It shows 4 or 5 candidates called out, and then a tiny gray area for about 2%. There is no giant gray area with no name.

Unfortunately, this doesn’t necessarily mean that Ron Paul is leading in the Anchorage area. For Paul supporters are probably the most enthusiastic and the most proactive. But this is great to see!
