Ron Paul For President
Mike Huckabee
Last week, I poked some fun at Twitter’s new method of predicting political winners by analyzing Tweets. Now, I have some expert opinion to prove that the Internet gives you a distorted view of reality. Gregory Ferenstein of the computer website TechCrunch.com is shooting down the idea that Internet social media sites reflect reality. He notes that young people and liberals tend to be early adapters of new technology. Older people and conservatives join later, if at all, but they actually work for candidates and show up to vote. Ferenstein notes that for all the talk about the youth vote, if nobody under 30 had voted for Obama, he still would have won all but two of the states that he did. In fact, if he depended entirely on his Twitter feed for news, he’d believe that Chick-Fil-A was unpopular, gay marriage was legal and Ron Paul was President. The moral: they call it “virtual reality” for a reason. If you want to know the mood of real America, turn off the laptop, and VISIT America.

Hey Mike!
Since you were so successfull witht the CF thing, how about one more to "save America"? If you would "subtlely suggest" that every single person who believes there is blatant media bias call their cable company and have them cut out or block NBC,CBS, ABC as well as CNBC, etc. from their tv's until the election if they don't report fairly, I bet it would get their attention! The liberal media is literally shaping our nation and we are going down the pike daily, I feel. Remember when John Kerry "hid" his luxury boat to avoid taxes in his state? All of his money? The photo shoot he did in Vietmam? No problem at all for them; now, they are destroying perhaps the most decent, moral man to run for president (with YOU as the exception!). Any gafe is HEADLINE NEWS if it is Romney. They HIDE the corruption going on daily in obams's admins. It is too frustrating to imagine. Our country is in big trouble and Mitt Romney might be our only hope and he is slipping because 1. He is being too nice and 2. Liberal media is making him look like a heartless, cold, greedy etc.man. He needs to make an ad talking straight into the camera and show the people his warmth, love, humor. If he has paid the tuition for a poor student, etc., helped a neighbor, he needs to tell the world about it, altho' against his nature to do so!I feel sure he is an adorable man who you would love to have as a next-door neighbor; he is being portrayed the exact opposite by cheats, liars, conniving thugs out to destroy him.....It is maddening to me! Pleas help us! (BTW, at a very, very busy Chic-Filet in Chattanoogs, there were only 8 gays who showed up to "protest" last Friday!)
Love your show!
