LOL. Ron Paul isn't electable because he comes across as somewhat of a kook. He also simply does not project the image of a leader. He doesn't market or project himself as being "Presidential" material.
That's not the media's fault. He's been in every debate. He can make and run media commercials just like anyone else.
Being smart, or having great ideas, isn't what gets one elected president. It's marketing and vote getting. Maybe that's not the way it *should* be, but that's the way it is. And it's nothing new, been that way for a long time, probably always been that way.
Those are the rules, and Ron Paul isn't electable because he doesn't know how to effectively play within the reality of the rules of the game. You can go ahead and spraypaint "Ron Paul for President" on your bedsheet and hang it on a freeway overpass, and that may make you feel better, but won't get anyone elected president.
