C-Span will broadcast the Iowa Tax/Christian forum this Wednesday. No mention in the announcement of any coverage of the Ron Paul Iowa rally on Saturday.

I left a recorded message with C-Span on their Viewer line (765 464-3080, option #1) to encourage them to broadcast Ron Paul rally.

The more (polite) calls to C-span on this issue the better...

Washington Journal just confirmed that the rally will be broadcast after the forum for the other candidates.

Is the Fourth really the best day for it? People are going to be out doing other things. Oh well, not our decision. Glad it's going to air.

Yeah it's good. Ron Paul supporters will be off visiting families and can say hey, lets turn on c-span... :D

They usually rebroadcast stuff over and over. ESPECIALLY IF, they get a tremendous turnout on their website to watch the video after they have the initial showing.

It will most likely start showing up on Youtube too including the CSPSN coverage of the RP rally.

C-span is still announcing the broadcast (2 hours) of the 'official' forum at 8pm, Wed. but are not listing a time for the Ron Paul rally.

Probably useful to encourage (tel. number above) them to broadcast Ron Paul rally immediately following the 'official' forum instead of in the middle of the night when everyone is sleeping..

Did the MSM even mention the Rally at all? I found nothing on MSNBC.

Yeah, but we need to watch it on their website. That is what will get their notice and cause them to rebroadcast it.

I haven't heard one single solitary word. Very weird.

That is weird, and when you put it like that, it's extremely eerie.

It's not suprising they never have articles on Ron Paul. They have a ton of articles on Hillary, Obama, Edwards, Ghooliani, McCain, Thomspon, and Romeny.

"Romney pooped in a toilet today". Garbage like that.

they're too busy with their thumbs up their ass gawking about McCain's failures and Obama's 10 bazillion donors.

Even after Dr. Paul passes McCain in the %s it's going to take MSM a while to mention it, and when they do, they'll word it in a way like "Wow McCain has really fallen, fringe third tier candidates are beginning to usurp him" without mentioning who they are.

MSM is fun like that.

Asked about showing the RP rally. Host said that it will be shown after the Forum, but wasn't sure of the exact time. Probably at 11 or midnight.

Also said RP was the only one who had not only read the Constitution, but understood it.

Now there's a Republican saying how we should stand by our President and she's proud to be an American and proud we're in Iraq.

Excuse me, I think I'm going to be sick.

You're watching a replay of this morning's Washington Journal. I watched the entire show, including the final segment which was with a guest from Americans for Tax Reform and no one else called in about Dr. Paul.


Shame too, there was a good opportunity during that Americans for Tax Reform part.

The guy who was the guest in favor of tax reforms did get to slam it to a pro-tax liberal who was complaining that taxes don't increase our tax revenue. The pro tax reform guy said 'Yes, you're correct. They don't, and they're not supposed to. Tax reform is about putting more money back into your hands and having the federal government spend less of your money for you."

It seems everywhere I look theres people talking about Ron Paul's platforms without mentioning Ron Paul.

Hope someone will record it! Probably too big to go on YouTube, unless you split it up. I'm hoping to be campaigning in town at 8 pm, so couldn't see it even if I DID have cable.
