Ron Paul wants to stop the war on drugs & all the crime & violence that runs with it. 60,000 shot & 17,000 murdered every year in America. My son was one of them. www.flybenji.org

Glad to see fair and unbiased reporting on Ron Paul. Kudos for not jumping in bed with the mainstream media's censorship efforts of Ron's campaign. I had lost all faith in politicians until hearing about RP and thoroughly educating myself on his views and voting history. If anyone reading this has not done so, you can get a fairly thorough rundown of Ron Paul on wikipedia, or directly from his campaign website www.ronpaul2008.com. Share what you find out with others. Most importantly, he *needs* your financial support. If you truly believe in his message, and want to see positive change in your lifetime, you have to put your money where your mouth is. Donations should be made directly at www.ronpaul2008.com. If you're uncomfortable just handing over money, purchases from the site store go towards the campaign. Again, thank you for your fair report of Ron Paul.

Ron Paul is our only hope. I was a devout democrat till I heard of Ron Paul and what he believes in. He is wanting to bring what made this Great nation Great {back to reality). That is the CONSTITUTION AND OUR BILL OF RIGHTS. He stands for all that I believe in.I support him 100% on my websites, blogs and bullentins.He has my vote and as I spread the word of him , I have helped to educate some people on Ron Paul.The government fears him. This is so evident. I have done vast research on all candidates worth researching. I AM A EDUCATED VOTER.Bring our troops home Ron. Help Americans take America Back.

I am so proud of Dr. Ron Paul and his strength, honesty, integrity and all he's doing to help this country and standing by the Constitution. I live in his hometown of Lake Jackson and I think he's great.

I have voted Democrat in the past elections but I am voting for Ron Paul in the coming presidential election. After hearing about Ron Paul from a buddy who was president of my high school's Republican Club and doing some serious research on him and the issues, I came to discover that I was a classic liberal who believed in Ron Paul's, the Libertarian-Republican, message of more freedom and power to the people and less to federal government politicians and bureaucrats. He is the only true candidate for peace, prosperity, and ethics. I've never been so passionate and trusted a politician enough to donate my money to until I came upon Ron Paul. He is the best remedy to curing our country and someone who can heal the rifts between liberals, conservatives, libertarians, greens, independents, etc. I've found that his supporters are a varied bunch (socio-economically, politically) but they all share the desire for more freedom and liberty in their lives.

I too have been a registered Democrat since I first became eligible to vote in 1972. I am now in the process of changing my registration to Republican so that I can vote for Ron Paul in the Florida presidential primary. I too had never given money to any candidate for president until now when I gave money to Ron Paul. I am very excited about Ron Paul's candidacy and I hope this excitement spreads nationwide and that Ron Paul becomes our next president.

Go get em Dr. Paul, you are a true American.

Ron Paul supporters are NOT mainly college kids. I am 45, my Dad is 70, my uncle is 73 and we all will support Ron Paul to our last breath. Dr. Ron Paul is the ONLY candidate in the 2008 Presidential Race who has NOT violated, repeatedly, the USA Constitution. Do your homework and you will see that NO OTHER candidate is even remotely honest. And Rudy Giuliani cannot even be president as Article One, Section Nine PROHIBITS people holding honorary titles from foreign countries from holding office of public trust. Giuliani was knighted by the Queen of England in 2002 for his "role" in 911. He cannot even be president without congressional approval yet he runs as if he already has it. Dr. Ron Paul is the ONLY Pro-Life candidate that has even half a chance. he will protect our 2nd amendment rights and END THE IRS. What more do you want?

Thanks for this post, I'm very excited for Dr. Paul, We finally have a candidate the common average american wants, even our soldiers want in office, but major media outlets are still in denial at his potential..this Ohioan is happily giving support to mr. paul where ever there's an open ear.

Ron Paul is a true conservative who believes in limited government, lower taxes, personal liberies, and a strong military for DEFENSIVE purposes, etc.

Great reporting! Thanks.

Thank you for the well balanced, non opinionated article. I rarely see something like this on TV anymore; I wish we had someone like you in our area!

Of all the canidates, Ron Paul has the history and the values to be president. It is sad that our media is not following him more closely. Even his fundraising numbers have gone unreported in recent weeks.. Over 1 million dollars raised in 7 days.. not one major publication or news media in my area even cared to mention it in a foot note.

I send my support to WBKO for offering this unbiased coverage of Ron Paul. Good job. Thank you for fulfilling your journalistic duties.
