Ron Paul was the last mainstream politician that I actually believed in and it was truly amazing what the "system" did to silence him including labeling him as a racist really early on because an article was written ABOUT him by a group with ties to racist groups. He didn't even know the article had been written until it was pointed out to him. He then proceeded to denounce the publication over and over again but the damage the media intended was already done because they didn't talk about the fact that he didn't authorize the fact that it was written, just that it was in the first place.

Since anyone can publish anything they want about any politician (or anyone else for that matter) this was truly egregious, but to the mass media consuming horde none of this mattered.
