Ron Paul interviewed on Morning Joe 12/18

surprisingly good interview...  explains why the polls are off and which 20th century wars he would have supported.

just a reminder...  Glenn's not a "supporter", so this could get interesting...

It wasn't that interesting until near the end when Beck came up with some off the wall "death threats against me from Ron Paul supporters" garbage. Dr. Paul seemed a little taken aback by the whole thing. Typical sensationalist tabloid journalism crap in my mind and a waste of that portion of the show. I don't have much use for Glenn Beck anyway.

yeah, not sure what to make of that death threat thing.  Beck went on and on about how this was going to be RP's chance to really explain his positions, which he said "needed more than 30 seconds".  Thing is, Beck was bouncing from topic to topic so much that he really didn't stay on any one long enough to cover it at depth.  Beck seemed to have a hard time asking a straightforward question.  It wasn't a bad interview, just didn't make good use of the allotted hour...  

Something hit me though, while watching this.  I got hooked on Ron Paul thru his writings and impassioned speeches on the floor of the Congress, and the fact that his voting record backs up the principals he espouses.  It wasn't his superb interview performance ability that won me over.

Glen Beck is a horrible interviewer.  Here is a typical question from him:

"Let me tell you my opinion on a certain subject.  Because I have to tell you this has been bugging me for a long time, and as my viewers know, and as I have written in my book, it is very important to many, many people in this country.  I talk to people all the time that have similar concerns about this subject, and I just can not understand how more people are not up in arms about this.  When people tell you that they have the opposite opinion on this subject, how do you respond to them, are what are you plans to do something about it?  Because it seems to me, and people tell me this all of the time on my radio program, that this subject is very important to them and they want something to be done about it.  What is your opinion and where do you stand on this issue?"

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.  Glen Beck could ask about twice as many questions in the same amount of time if he didn't spend so much time kissing is own arse and pushing his radio program and new book.

Unflappable, I like.  Cavuto looked kinda silly in that, he really seemed to want to focus on christmas ads and getting RP to cave.

Positive article on Ron Paul and the revolution at CBN, including a good video where Pat comments on Dr. Paul.  Almost sounds like he regrets his earlier endorsement of Ghouliani...
