i didn't thanks.. Are we taking bets on whether or not Ron Paul actually gets to speak? How bout whether or not he'll be recognized in the morning for what he said or if he'll be buried in the funny pages...

How does CNN usually treat Ron Paul coverage? He is not completely blacked out from the`media coverage. Some actually care.

They all suck at giving ron paul time to speak. even when they do, they do their best to interrupt him and cut him off before he talks too much wisdom and teaches people how the government is corrupt.

I knew this would turn into a Ron Paul-athon and I don't mind.
It'll be curious to see how much time he gets in the debate.
The last debate was ridiculous. I wanna see a fair debate sequence, same amount of questions for each debater

I'll be sure to check www.dailypaul.com in the morning to see the outcome

Rick Perry called SS a Ponzi scheme during the last debate.

It's not a smart move, calling it a scam or a ponzi. People, esp. the elderly, get very worried. Best approach is to offer fixes to the system, to preserve people's investments so far. Many have paid in for 30 years or so -- to lose all that isn't funny.

Thank you for writing this thread. I have been wanting to hear a healthy debate...and tonight is it!

By the way....it is 5:00pm here on the west coast (Pacific Standard Time).

I will enjoy listening to Ron Paul...I like the way he phrases things.

It's my understanding that Wolf Blitzer will be the moderator; he's generally relatively fair towards Ron Paul! I'll be watching online through the CNN site tonight.
Has everyone seen the new RevPAC ad, "Plastic Men"? I think it's outstanding, cute, funny, but that's just me. Here it is:

If Wolf Blitzer cuts him off or gives him no time, then you will know that his life has been threatened. TPTB want anyone but Ron Paul because he is the only one with wisdom and in a world of idiocracy, wisdom is like a holy water bath to a vampire.

The debate is just starting. Introductions.....Michele Bachmann and Ron Paul had the loudest clapping from the audience.

First issue addressed (Social Security)......those already on social security or about to be....they all say...these people are safe....but...for the young Americans they want to revise social security and get it on solid ground. Rick Perry is (parroting) Ron Paul's stance on SS. MItt Romney is really laying into Rick Perry about SS. Now...Ron Paul is speaking....saying he tried to pass a bill protecting SS.Paul says... Allow the young people to get out of SS and go on their own. Current Seniors will not be affected.....they want to give the younger workers a choice. Now talking about raising retirement age. Part of the fix....is increasing jobs.

2nd Issue...(balance the budget)...what will they do? Newt G. says we can balance the budget we need to modernize the federal government. Newt said to stop paying the crooks on SS. Perry on persciption benefits for seniors....said he wouldn't repeal.

Just thought I would document the beginning.....

Would rather watch football to be honest. It'll just be a repeat of the last 2 debates anyway. Cripes, they just had one last Wednesday. hasn't even been a week.

Anything you hear them say you can see on Fox news anyway. If want Republican stances...just watch that.

But oh...wait...I know the real motivation.

Everyone is chomping at the bit to claim how Ron paul didn't get enough questions or airtime.


Enjoy it...count me out!!!

Wolf didn't let Ron Paul answer the question about the Federal Reserve???

Did they just boo Ron Paul for saying that they attacked us because of our bases and killings instead of our freedom?

Maybe Elenin should come and blow this planet up.
