There seems to be some confusion, but I doubt the campaign would post this without contact with the New Hampshire State Republican Party:

ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA – According to the New Hampshire State Republican Party and an Associated Press report, Republican presidential candidate and Texas Congressman Ron Paul will be excluded from an upcoming forum of Republican candidates to be broadcast by Fox News on January 6, 2008.

“Given Ron Paul’s support in New Hampshire and his recent historic fundraising success, it is outrageous that Dr. Paul would be excluded,” said Ron Paul 2008 campaign chairman Kent Snyder. “Dr. Paul has consistently polled higher in New Hampshire than some of the other candidates who have been invited.”

Snyder continued, “Paul supporters should know that we are continuing to make inquiries with Fox News as to why they have apparently excluded Dr. Paul from this event.”

WILL BE EXCLUDED is a pretty clear description.

There's only 3 options that I see:

1) let someone else (FOX) build and broadcast the event (FOX)
2) build (grassroots) and broadcast our event (liberty TV)
3) build (grassroots) and have someone else (other media) broadcast it

Obviously, (1) is out. (2) is a limited audience. Seems (3) is our best chance to pull the audience from "mainstream" FOX and place them somewhere else. Will ABC, CBS, NBC, or CNN be game? We'll know only if we try.

Congressman Paul was excluded despite the fact that he consistently polls as much as double what former Senator Thompson does in New Hampshire, and Thompson was invited.

This is SO outrageous it makes me want to scream.

New Hampshire Republicans need to take a stand on this on the front lines. Their is your state. This is your state party. We are counting on you.

If you are outraged then PLEASE urge others to start taking action!

1) We need to spread the word about this exclusion all across the internet. Everysingle Ron Paul supporter needs to be alerted immediately so they can join us in this effort! For example, we need to tell our friends on Myspace, Digg, Facebook, and Youtube! Also, we need to send a message to all of our Meet Up groups!

2) We need to fax, email, and call every single person at Faux News and other media organizations to tell them about our outrage! The messages should be non-violent and peaceful, but we need to make it clear that we are TICKED OFF and we are NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS!

3) We need to go on every radio show, every internet broadcast, and every call in TV program and let everyone know about this outrage!
