Help me...
I have been watching the Ron Paul movement for many months now and have nothing but respect and enthusiasm for the message he brings to the people of America, and hopefully, the world.
Anyway, I have become increasingly frustrated, as many of you have in the US, with the lack of media coverage. I don't watch much 'normal' TV in the UK, but tune into world news and political coverage amongst other.
It seems that Ron Paul does not exist on this planet if you watch British TV coverage. I have seen ZERO on the any mainstream TV news channel (including BBC, ITV, CH4, CNN worldwide, SKY News, Faux, etc etc). Though I have heard him spoke of twice on Al Jazeera News English (ironic really).
Back on topic. I watched a popular BBC political program tonight, Newsnight. The program subject was 'Democracy in 2008' and amongst others, reported from the US primaries in the US, with follow up to come with the people they interviewed in the following weeks (This program will carry the main BBC news coverage of the US Primaries).
I've put the coverage on YouTube for folk to see.

THe program also had a studio discussion, with no mention of the good doctor. Poll statistics from pollster.com where used to indicate candidate popularity. Guiliani was listed @ 6% in Iowa (true), Ron Paul is sitting 9% but they never listed him in the 'top six' candidates...???!!!
To me, the people in this article are in need of the Ron Paul message. Can anyone get in touch with these guys (I'm in the UK if you never guessed). It would be great if the people of the UK could witness these people find the candidate they seem to be so desperately seeking.
I think people around the world need to hear about Dr Ron.
The British media need to hear about Ron Paul.
If we speak loud enough they might just see a good story and give a good unbiased view.
You can comment on the program here.

Thanks for your help in relieving my despair, and a hope for our world.
God bless, and good luck.
