Why is that?
I hate to break this to you, Sallow...but nobody really takes MSNBC seriously. Bane? More like laughingstock.
Why is that?
To fracture and marginalize the GOP.
Same reasons why Republicans want Nader to always run. Because of him, Gore lost and Bush won.
Well if Democrats were getting that organized!
That would be great!

The Bush campaign actually ran Nader ads in the Florida newspapers.

Yup.
Actually quite brilliant. And since then both sides do the same sort of thing.
Hell, the first time we saw this type of thing was in 92 with Perot.

On this very message board there is complaint after complaint about Maddow, Schultz, Matthews and Sharpton.
Not bad for a station no one watches.

So MSNBC is the Democrats.
Because it's not even an "issue". Ron Paul allowed it to become an issue. Chris Matthews is a pundit and an advocate.
It should have been easy to brush this whole thing aside. But instead Ron Paul insists on drawing lines in the sand. That's ridiculous.
How do you think that would work on the world stage? Because really..the most important task of the President of the United States is to deal with the rest of the world.
I could just imagine him closing off trade with China because they don't have "a free market economy".
You're right it's not an issue, but Rachel Maddow and Chris Matthews know that Ron and Rand Paul will tell the truth so they make it an issue so that they can paint them as racists.
If you think Ron Paul would close off trade with China then you don't know him at all. Ron Paul is for completely free trade with everyone. It's the interventionists who want to go around drawing lines in the sand with foreign governments, not Ron Paul.
Seriously you aren't talking to someone who "hates" Ron Paul. And neither, I suppose does Maddow or Matthews. But if it was that easy for them to get both Pauls to paint themselves into a corner..how do you think it's going to go on an international stage? The world is a wild and wooly place.
I don't want to see a Nader or Kuncinch presidency for very much the same reason. While I like Ron Paul's stance on many things..I recognize that as President..you MUST be flexible.
And I don't see that in Ron Paul.

Maybe they don't hate Ron Paul, but they have no problem painting him as a racist.

clinton ran Perot ads?
No, I mean one party fracturing so badly with essentially two people on the ticket, that it hands the opposition a win they would not of had if one of the other individuals had not been running.
I wasn't clear, sorry.
I think Bush's campaign took it to the next level with the ads.
Yup.

Rove learned from the best. Lee Atwater.
While I may not have liked the guy..no denying both his genius and ruthlessness.

Who is Rove's protege?
They'll always appear to love who they figure has the slimmest chance of beating the Dem.He came in third in Iowa.
Won a NH young republican straw poll.
Ron Paul Wins New Hampshire Young Republicans Straw Poll
He came in second in Iowa, but like I said MSNBC only likes Paul when it's convenient for them to use him to attack Republicans in general. When he's not being used for that purpose they paint him as a racist.
All the MSM loved McCain until he became the nominee for the Rep. ticket.
And once again..it's because Paul starts this anti-regulation diatribe so it gets into how far are you are looking to go with this. Ron Paul could easily kibosh this whole thing by stating that he now believes the civil rights legislation was a good thing..and he now supports it. Instead he starts nonsense about property rights and the like. And this is part of the problem with a Ron Paul presidency. Yes..part of it is a dog and pony show.

Right. What you want is exactly what Ron Paul won't do. He won't dumb down what he's saying simply because some people will misunderstand it. Or because the press will deliberately misrepresent it. He has principled reasons why he thinks some of our civil rights legislation was a bad idea. If those reasons are too subtle for MSNBC, so be it. I don't think that's necessarily the case, but it seems to be the argument you're making; that he should drop all the nonsense about 'rights' and acquiesce to the simplistic solutions. The fact that he doesn't do that - that actually tries to explain his views instead of condensing everything down to twenty second sound bites is what makes him a better candidate than the other Republicans. People aren't as stupid and short sighted as the press would like to think.
