Why doesn't this guy get more press?

Here is what I have to say about Ron Paul:



A. When I was living in Barcelona, I was sitting on the beach on day with some friends, and this random man came up and asked if we were Americans by chance (I think we gave it away by the strikingly pale skin tone compared to the natives and/or our reserved inability to take of our clothes on this semi-nude beach). Either way, he asked if we knew, and had heard Ron Paul, which we had not, and then spent the next few minutes sharing how much he supported this guy. Although I must admit for at least 5 minutes I thought Ron Paul was that night's DJ spinning at Razzmatazz, the 'minimal-electronic' dance club. Turns out he wasn't, but this man went on to say, "Look him up on youtube, listen to his ideas, I promise he will have something to say that strikes you. I am a strong democrat, but this man will have my vote." His words stuck with me, and here he is now...Ron Paul rocking out the election.

B. Other Republicans do not take him seriously when he speaks, and often just brush him to the side. This is unfair. He may not be the front runner, but he strongly supports his ideals, and they should be heard as well.

C. He should have run as an Independent...although what a waste that vote is in this country (sadly).

D. He has some good ideas, and according to MTV, the young voters are tending to agree. Which leads me to my last point...why are the young, alternative, and often undecided voters so frequently overlooked. Our voices matter too, and guess what...we will grow up, and we will continue to vote, and we will be important in the future. Just because I have tattoos and listen to indie rock music doesn't mean I don't want to know the issues, feel appreciated by a candidate, and yearn for a better future for this country.
