"Distorts" is cutting it short. They blatantly lie to our faces.
I've been following the delegate strategy very closely. Ron is taking over the Republican party. The establishment junkies are doing everything they can to stop it too. It's really quite sad to see a bunch of people blatantly breaking rules to try to stop a man who is unelectable. They even try to post signs outside of the conventions stating that there are no recording devices allowed, which the rule itself is against the rules, lol.
There has been fraud committed by the Romney people at nearly every single state convention, and even instances of Ron Paul people getting assaulted by the Romney-folk. One guy who was caught passing out fake slates in Maine was found to be in direct connection to the Romney campaign. He tried to go to the cops when he got caught on camera.
Ron even recently had a breakfast with Ben Bernanke and joked about how he had convinced him of the gold standard. Wonder if it's true. Not that it matters, the real deal is legalizing competing currencies and allowing the market to choose.
-------------------- Dr says to stop trying to treat the side-effects of big government and focus on the core issues. End the Federal Reserve/audit the gold reserves at Fort Knox, abolish the IRS, end all wars and occupancies, stop the building of an empire that will inevitably fail, and cut all unconstitutional federal programs. Put the power back in the peoples' hands by ending this nanny-state.

He stopped campaigning in primary states but he's winning a lot of delegates.

no... he's winning a few delegates
http://elections.nytimes.com/2012/primaries/delegates
I know it's cliche to say this, but the mainstream media really distorts things. They were saying he had 90 delegates weeks ago yet he's won probably five or six states conventions in the past few weeks.
Yep, the MSM does not report an accurate count. Looking at the link Pris posted, I can tell you for a fact that my home state is not correct. I was at the MN state convention this past weekend to support Dr. Paul, and it was almost a clean sweep. We would have had a clean sweep if one of our potential delegates didn't give his spot to Michele Bachmann. Minnesota is for a fact sending 33 Ron Paul delegates to Tampa out of 40 delegates total.
I can't say for certain how far off the other states are, but I know that Ron Paul also won Iowa, and Pris's link only gives him 1/28...

Yep, there are shenanigans going on in ALMOST every state. Not so much in MN though. I've been surprised at how fairly our conventions have been run...

Damn straight!
Romney is a bully, a liar, a thief, and just has a fuck-ton of baggage for anyone who plans to run for president. The guy has a terrible history, he has even been arrested.
The fact that he is the presumptive nominee shows that the GOP establishment does not truly care to beat Obama.
In fact, both Romney and Obama are funded by the same group of elite bankers including Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and so on. Both of these people are in the same pockets of the same group of people who have been buying presidents for decades; basically overstepping the bounds of traditional republican democracy and essentially maintaining a monarchistic-dictatorship rule of the elite 1%, who the occupy people protest, over the rest of the citizens. So in all reality, it makes very little difference to those who have funded both sides of this presidential election, and very little will change in terms of war, debt, and the economic infrastructure of our country, if we vote for either of these candidates.
What's worse is the determinants of these candidates' platforms almost exclusively consist of unconstitutional policies. People are glued to debate over unconstitutional matters such as gay marriage and abortion. These issues do not belong in the hands of the federal government for one simple reason; our federal government is not meant to be authoritarian in nature and these issues are best left to states to decide because it is easier for a person to leave a state than it would be to leave the entire country.
The marriage issue would not even be talked about if our federal government wouldn't have unlawfully gotten involved with the church to begin with; in other words, no marriages should be recognized federally. And as for abortion, the more centralized the law becomes over this, the more you're going to see a black market for the service, and the more we have to spend by arresting and imprisoning people. Want to ban it in your state? Fine, nothing wrong with that. But the federal government is overstepping their bounds by dealing with these issues and people are clueless.

minnesota from that link shows RP getting 30 delegates for RP, Mn also isnt a state with a binding delagate count, some are a winner takes all, some are
Iowa count shows Paul with 82 and romney with 93, how is that winning? http://www.dailypaul.com/214504/the-real-delegate-score-romney-93-paul-82
anyone care to show the source with the accurate count that shows RP winning a lot of delegates?

Seriously, if more people heard him speak, completely uninterrupted and without media fools talking about how crazy he is in the end, more people would open up to his ideas. People need to be allowed to draw their own conclusions because they have been reliant on the opinions of others for far too long.
And he has actually been getting more and more people to help him in congress recently. He used to be just one lone "no" vote in congress in the 70s. He's come quite a way.

He is scared, that's why he's trying to send attorneys to try and reverse the votes, and has even tried to get his "bound" delegates to sign pledges stating that they will vote for him at the RNC, which several have refused.
The race is not over.
