Ron Paul will be on CSPANS "Road to the White House" at 6:30 and a repeat will air at 9:30. The times listed our Eastern. Lets lift the ratings thru the roof so he is a repeat guest!!! Unfortunatley other canidates will be featured.:mad: I thought i saw another thread on this somewhere but I can't find it.

Unless you're a Nielson family I don't think it really matters. Although I'm sure this data is collected for people with digital cable, I haven't heard about it being used yet for ratings.

Looks like they are going to air a video version of the NH NPR interview found on another thread here:

c-span doesn't have advertising. they're a non-profit that gets their funding through cable and satellite operators.

very few people watch c-span, which is why it's a favorite of crank callers, as it's extremely easy to get on the air.

Ratings or not, if Ron Paul is on...I'm there!

Unfortunately Hillary will be there also. So on that note, I will DVR it and skip past the idiocy :)

Cspan is great. Surprised he's on the show as it's funded by cable TV $$$

C-SPAN has the obligation to show a diverse field of candidates. You appear to have a complaint with the way representative democracies function.

Simple Kandilynn....they get lots and lots of time!!!! 30-45 minutes of just pure time :) That's why there are only 3 of them.

c-span should be watched regardless of who's on. they give a voice to all candidates. they even broadcast third party conventions. and the crank calls, detrimental, but nonetheless entertaining. even brian lamb, the founder of c-span, plays along with them.

OK, OK...
I'm tired of watching Billary BS with everyone she sees....
Move on to a discussion of real issues already....

Hope this gets good....

I think it's just going to show everyone walking around talking to people.

Hope not...
The C-Span site mentioned Ron's NPR visit. I hope it doesn't just show him shaking hands with NPR folks...

Obama's obviously very sincere with his thanks, since he can't even remember the people's names and has to read them off of cards.

Ugh, they're just replaying the NPR segment.

C-SPAN should actually do an interview for once.

They are showing the out takes. That's pretty cool, you didn't get to hear this part on the radio interview.

I doubt he missed the giant camera sitting in the back of the room.
