Ron Paul is going to get schooled by Tim Russert over his stance on segregation, Congressional Gold Medals, links to white supremacists, and conspiracy theorists. It ain't going to be pretty, I assure you...

So wrong it hurts.
 
Ron does need to prepare, though. This is going to be a tough interview. Russert is going to throw everything at him.
 
I hope that Ron Paul doesn't come out battered and bruised after this week. He is going to go up against the toughest interviewers... if he is not careful, then it could be the end of the Ron Paul phenomenon.
 
He needs to keep reiterating about how the money is coming from average Americans and not transnational corporations--how the freedom message brings us all together.

Exactly correct, and this is where he will either make it or break it. Dr. Paul does not equate well with 15 second soundbytes, as his well thought out ideas require some time to explain and more time to digest.

I think he will show the American public something they are not used to, in a candidate who believes what he says rather than what the polls dictate is the answer most likely to win votes.

If this does not work, the fault is the American public's, not Dr. Paul's. All he can do is offer his platform and hope there are enough of us out there who stopped drinking the Koolaid to understand.

Unfortunately, I have to agree with this post. He is going to do his best to destroy Ron Paul with that 1992(?) newsletter fiasco. Tie that in with his views on states' rights, KKK, etc. this could get ugly. I hope Ron is prepared for the worst and has the appropriate comebacks for these type of smear-tactic questions that are surely coming.

This interview IMHO is going to make or break this campaign.
 
Someone from the campaign needs to sit down with Ron and work with him on his answers and prep him for the interview. Have that person play as Russert and ask the kinds of the questions that might come up so Ron can be well-prepared to respond when they do come up during the actual interview.
 
Exactly. When you are as candid and open as Ron is, there are a lot of votes/speeches/guilt by association "tidbits" that can be taken out of context to portray him as a racist. It is of the utmost importance for Ron to come out of this interview relatively unscathed. I guess it depends on how much we have pissed off Russert with e-mails. :(
I truly hope it will be a fair interview, but I have my doubts.
