Default Re: Why doesn\'t Ron Paul speak the truth re: the bias against him

Paul Actually has a much higher chance of winning then most people realize. The polling methods used in the polls that report him at 1-3% are very flawed.

Care to elaborate?

I read an article the other day that explained how the polling works.

Basically the only people that get called are registered republicans that have voted consistantly (not missed an election) for awhile. Also they only call LAND LINES. Do you see how this might cut alot of Ron Paul's base out of the equation?

I will search for the link. Hopefully I will be able to find it.

Ron Paul's "base" consists of about 0.5% of the American public. Even if they aren't being polled, they aren't going to perceptibly influence his numbers.

I assure you that Paul's chances of being nominated are less than 1 in 100, and I would happily accept a wager at those odds.
