Why isn't Ron Paul getting he kind of news coverage that Romney, Huckabee, McCain and even Guliani get??
2. He gets a fair amount of coverage. Romney, McCain, and Huckabee have "won" primaries. Huckabee got almost nothing before Iowa. Giuliani doesn't get a ton of coverage either, but he's been making a lot of noise lately, and his history is closer-to-home of most of the news organizations. Lastly, Ron Paul has pigeonholed himself as an "ideals candidate," and now that everyone who follows the news has gotten up to speed with his ideals, there's not much story left. Media organizations are in the business of selling media. There's no news with Ron Paul. If he managed to win a state, then he might be a salesworthy piece of news.

3. If Hillary gets the nomination, he most certainly won't run as a third party candidate. If there's one thing that unites a large group of Americans, it's that a lot of us wouldn't vote for Hillary Clinton even with guns pointed at us. She's the only candidate who has the potential to shatter Mr. Bush's record-low approval ratings. Morale is bad enough right now. Her simple presence is enough to cause a major recession.

what's an 'ideals candidfate'?
For one, an "ideals candidate" might as well be described as "Ron Paul." His platform places all of its message on a set of ideals that are well known. If you were to take all of the candidates and ask them a few questions, they will all go at length about circumstances and concessions -- except Ron Paul. His mission is well known to him and everyone else, for better or for worse.
For two, Hillary is "hated" for the reasons I described already. Whether or not she "deserves" it is irrelevant: does anyone really deserve anything? The fact is, people don't like her position, her delivery, or the fact that she's attached to a previous presidency, which thanks to Bush 43 has become an undesirable attribute.

Not quite. We are in a position of slow growth. I'm not making this up.
