Radio Iowa report on the Forum

[LizF]

Brief mention of RP:

"Texas Congressman Ron Paul, a Republican who is running for president, held a barbeque for supporters next door to the forum. Paul was not invited to speak at the Iowans for Tax Relief/Iowa Christian Alliance event.

Paul was nominated in 1988 as the Libertarian Party's presidential candidate and he received just less than one-half-of-one percent of the vote."

Their implication is that he doesn't stand a chance, so why bother.

I feel like every report about this forum has either not mentioned RP or said one line that made him seem like a nobody...anybody noticing this?

I think its his #s. The media assumes that he only has 600K raised, and that he is not a contender.

Bad press is always better than being ignored. Commend them for taking shots at him.
