Recently our local Newspaper the Utica Observer Dispatch, wrote a peice on the upcoming GOP primaries in NY State. There were pictures of 4 candidates and not surprisingly, Ron Paul was not one of them. The following is my letter, then a response, then a follow up.
Hello, I live in Sauquoit NY and I am a Ron Paul supporter. I don't know if
you know who Ron Paul is or not, but he is running for president. He
recently placed 2nd in the Republican Party Nevada Primary, and either 1st
or 2nd in the Louisiana Republican Caucus (pending provisional ballot
count). I saw that recently the Utica Observer Dispatch ran an article about
the GOP candidates, yet there were only 4 candidates mentioned. When there
is 5 people in the race, why would a news source only mention 4 of them?
Also why would they omit the guy who just got a 2nd and either a 1st or 2nd
in recent primaries. It's a little unnerving to have the candidate who you
support not be mentioned by a local newspaper. The remarkable thing about
all of this is that despite not getting any national, or as it appears now
even local coverage Ron paul still has the strongest grass roots support
system in US Political history. Please view the following Youtube video to
fully understand what I am telling you.

This is a little hard to understand when you think about his fundraising
success, (single day record for any candidate in history 6.6 Million
Dollars) his substantial grassroots support (video I just showed you) and
other factors such as his blimp www.ronpaulblimp.com and the blatent and
transparent silencing of him by the major media corporations. (by the way, a
mitt romney owned company is in the process of buying clear channel
communications, isn't that nice!) Also with any luck, Ron Paul will have the
largest sponsorship on a nascar at the Daytona 500. Not just any nascar
either, the #28 car which will be making it's first appearance on a
racetrack since it's retirement after the death of Nascar racing legend
Davey Allison. There is already a commitment by the Yates racing team to
allow the sponsorship as long as we come up with the money (never a problem
for ron paul supporters). you can check the progress and the credibility
here. www.ronpaulracing.com
I feel the Utica Observer Dispatch would be doing a great service to the
people of the Utica Area to write a full page (or two) article showing the
positives of the Ron Paul Campaign (or Revolution if you will). There has
been so much coverage of the other candidates, there needs to be a balancing
of the news. Especially since Ron Paul is the only voice coming out of the
GOP that is going against the grain and actually proposing real substantial
change, not just paying lip service to the lemmings who run to the voter
booths because fox news told them who to vote for. We do have a local Meetup
group as well so I know you would make at least a few of us happy (and gain
some credibility in journalsim as well)
Due to the very urgent and dire nature of this matter I would respectfully
request a reply from you.
Thank You,
