What's new compared to the '08 attack? He's not called a racist, but he's accused from profiting from his newsletters containing some racist material. CNN asked him to return the money to some charity.

Why don't we moneybomb for him a million or two for this purpose?
We can think of good charitable cause to start a new charity. Something like "honesty in racial reporting," Or "Truth in News," or something else if you think it's too cheesy.

If we do it fast, it'll serve at least 3 purposes:

1. It puts to rest the notion that he profited from something politically incorrect.
2. It'll bring some additional news to him and his support. Hopefully good news.
3. This new charity could be used to pay a few people to monitor main media for bias or do something else. Maybe something like a Cato institute, only useful.

Not sure myself if it's a good idea. What do you think?

1. Know Ron's response on the newsletters and the official campaign response. It is accurate and the best approach.

2. Be aware that getting Ron into office is only a mid-term goal. The long-term goal is changing our society, and one part of that is ending the hegemony of corporate media and replacing it with alternative/non-corporate media. Get involved in reading and listening to alternative media, and share it with others. Every time you send a link from an alternative media source to a friend, you are taking a tiny piece of mindshare away from outlets like Fox and CNN.

Let's see the media provide one instance of him being racist on audio or video.

They can't.

Conversely, let's see them show all the hundreds of times, he has defended individual rights (and Blacks) on audio and video.

They won't.

I am sick and tired of the Lame Stream Media and this is going to rebound on them severely.

They should be ashamed of themselves, but they are not because they are shameless.

Most are nothing more than 'attack dog's' for the Democratic party and even Fox pretty much ignores him so I guess that goes for Republican machine.
So they are all running scared and now its Ron Paul's turn to be attacked as he is gaining in the polls.

Honor, integrity and journalistic independence is dead in the Lame Stream Media world. They are hopeless.
