Paul to be on Cavuto at 4PM EST (in t10 minutes!!) 12/23

[harikaried]

Details please.

Cavuto had Ron Paul comment on those talking about the newsletter try to call Ron Paul a racist. Cavuto also points out Ron Paul's positions and rhetoric are totally not-racist. Ron Paul talks about civil libertarian positions, drug wars, prisons, judicial process.

Cavuto then says some try to attack Ron Paul that this might mean Ron Paul isn't fit to manage. Ron Paul says he has managed his medical practice fine, his congressional office too. Ron Paul says he wrote some economic newsletters, but out of the thousands of pages written in his newsletters since the 70s, the ones CNN try to highlight are probably 1/100th of 1% of all those pages. Ron Paul also repeated that he was practicing medicine when those newsletters were written.

he explained well what exactly happened. i don't think anyone would believe RP is a racist or an incompetent executive after watching that. except those who were against Paul even before this issue was brought up.

also, this time it was CAVUTO the one who ended the topic. Ron Paul kept talking on and on about the newsletters until cavuto finally said alright, let's move to something else.

 

[WD-NY]

Yes he did, he said he made a mistake and wasn't perfect.

Agreed... but he doesn't need to make a case that plays well to me or you

 

[randomname]

I love Cavuto.

 

[Apparition]

Yeah.. props to Cavuto for asking the newsletter question in a manner that allowed Ron a dignified response.

 

[Ben Bernanke]

Cavuto basically took Ron's side, said anyone who has followed him would know he is not a racist

 

[DinahWest]

He handled that very well! So true, old hat trick that hasn't stuck and won't stick.

And I love how he takes such things to go into policy, especially on this issue and
the War on Drugs and how it has adversely and disproportionately affected blacks.


Good on ya' Ron!

Geez that 1/100th part wasn't wise. I missed that.

Should we start a thread to Facebook like bomb cavuto?

Send a bit of a message?

Exactly!

So pleased with how Cavuto conducted this interview.

 

[MRoCkEd]

Cavuto is always fair.

Ok so who's going to make sure that everyone who was exposed to the BS propaganda smear attack for the last 4 days gets to see this one 5-7min interview to undo the damage?

Don't be naive please, cool, he handled an interview fine, I just hope the damage already done isn't too big.

 

[harikaried]

Ron Paul wants people to eat crow! He says every attack leads to more fundraising!

Fyi more context. Ron Paul takes it as a challenge that Iowa Governor says "pay attention to 2nd" and a lot of other people on Fox too. Ron Paul finds it exciting that he can prove them all wrong, and the supporters want it too so they keep donating even more.

Ron Paul also highlighted that those downplaying a Ron Paul win are basically saying they don't believe in democracy where people go out and vote for the candidate they care about. To say Ron Paul winning 1st isn't what Iowans want when that's what Iowan voters just said they wanted Ron Paul.

Let's just hope that doesn't get misquoted as 1% now.

 

[Root]

Super ease

understatement

what damage? rp's national poll numbers have increased. look at today gallup's numbers. he is at an all time high. the only naive person here is you.

 

[giovannile07]

Dang I missed it.

I think it'll be fine. We still have 10 days till the Caucus. As long as he keeps giving answers like that about it we'll be fine

 

[crusader]

that 1/100th of 1% part was awesome, puts things in perspective as to how many papers were printed and how easy it would be to miss one or two paragraphs while he was busy doing his job for a living.

 

[hueylong]

He's at 13% nationally, and still surging in Iowa. We don't need to spend more time on this. We need to return the conversation to the only thing that matters: cutting spending, shrinking government, bringing our troops home. THESE are the things important to Americans.
