So how many 2012 GOP potential candidates have Fox contracts? Palin, Newt, Huck, Trump, who else?

Isn't there some FEC law about equal coverage / non-discrimination?

Shouldn't they be giving Obama air time?

OK - well thed do give the egotist in chief plenty of air time and I haven't counted minutes - but they have been pretty nice to Paul. - Both of them.

Fox is the controlled opposition, so course they will endorse anybody that is an internationalist.

Huckabee groveled in front of the CFR a few years ago telling them he is an internationalist. Palin isn't that bright, so of course she supports Israel since every good conservative supports Israel. We all know about Newt, CFR insider for a long time.

Trump is probably like the rest of the Establishment, owning an economic empire gets boring after a while. Might be fun for him to do battle against the right wing's phony arch-nemesis, Lefty Internationalist.
Fox is just setting up the 2012 elections so they have a ring side seat to report to us peons about the ultimate battle royale between Righty Interventionist and Lefty Internationalist.

Repealed a long time ago. The argument was that it was too much of a hardship on the voters not getting to watch Ronald Reagan movies on TV for a while. Of course, no TV stations showed his movies at the time, because they all sucked. The best of the lot was Bedtime for Bonzo. But that was ostensibly why they repealed the law.

I don't believe there has been a law repealed since. Except the ones outlawing bribery and making it campaign contributions.

So he's NOT running for president?

I thought that anyone with this type of status on a TV network isn't allowed to run??

Fox has Trump on because he is known to get ratings. That's all.

Have you been paying attention to what Trump has been saying at all? He's come out pretty strongly against free trade, supports withdrawing from Afghanistan, and has criticized our global military presence. If anything, I would say that Trump is pretty similar to Pat Buchanan. He's certainly no internationalist.

There is one person I will vote for President of the U.S. & that's Ron Paul. If he doesn't run, then I write him in. Ron has written books on his position... I've read them, watched plenty of his videos, and I KNOW where he stands. Ron Paul 2012!

The Super Salesman, the integration of Church and State, the son of the guy who prevented AMC from becoming big enough to compete with the Big Three, the governor of one of the poorest states in the union, the governor of one of the most liberal states in the union and the governor who quit.

And one elder statesman.

I beleive that is why he hasn't declared yet. When they declare, then they have to give up the shows.

Or because his TV show the apprentice has been a top ten show for a long time running and he was just roasted on Comedy Central that gave them some of their best ratings ever.

Not really. Trump has no chance of winning and I doubt he'll even run.

How so? For many many people, myself included, it would take a miracle to support a Presidential candidate endorsed by Fox.
Besides, Trump will be working at Fox like Huck, Palin, Newt and others.
