JUST WANT TO GIVE A HEADS UP!!!
I received a newsletter from Bill Moyers Journal today that tomorrow on PBS,
RON PAUL will be on Moyers show Friday, January 4th, 2008 (check your local listings for the time )
From the newsletter:
Thousands of media outlets descended on Iowa, erecting a powerful wall of TV cameras and reporters between the voters and candidates.
This week on BILL MOYERS JOURNAL in two interviews, Bill Moyers talks with Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich, candidates with an inside view of the process who know well the power of the press to set expectations and transform the agenda.
From the website:
January 4, 2008
There are many stories of this 2008 Presidential campaign season: the first election without an incumbent or a vice-president since 1952, the viability of the first female president or the first African-American president, just to name a few.
But perhaps the biggest surprise development of the election cycle is the grassroots potency of the
Ron Paul (R-TX) campaign. Just days after raising over $4 million on the Internet in one day, the Libertarian Congressman joked during a debate:
"We're struggling to figure out how to spend the money. This country is in a revolution. They're sick and tired of what they're getting, and I happen to be lucky enough to be part of it." Representative Paul has since broken his own fundraising record, collecting over $6 million in less than 24 hours in mid-December. Although official reports aren't due until January 31st, most analysts agree that Paul likely collected more money than any other Republican candidate in the 4th quarter.

Ron Paul, 72, has served Texas in the House of Representatives for 10 terms, from 1978-1984 and was later re-elected in 1996 where he currently represents the 14th Congressional district.
A former medical doctor with over 4000 baby deliveries to his credit, according to his Web site, Paul has earned the nickname Dr. No in Congress because he often votes against any bill that he deems to interfere with the free market or that overreaches Constitutional authority of the federal government.

Another cool thing is that if you miss seeing this, you will find it posted online on Moyer's web site to watch.
Also no commercials on this show so this should be a really interesting interview.
