The Iowa Caucus is over and the two big emerging first place winners are Mike Huckabee and Barrack Obama. This victory marks a clear message that Celebrity endorsements do matter in politics. Barrack who was endorsed by Oprah Winfrey saw his numbers rise over Hillary Clinton's, and Mike Huckabee, endorsed by Chuck Norris, saw his numbers rise to a stellar Iowa victory.
This may lead the rest of the flock to seek big celebrities to back them up in their quest for the Presidency of the United States. Ron Paul who has no celebrity endorsers that are omnipresent, saw an impressive gain and fifth place finish with a whopping 10% of the vote. Ron Paul was very excited about his 5Th place finish because he topped the Republican hopeful Rudy Giuliani by a wide margin.
The Fox news network promised the top five winners of the Iowa caucus a seat on their televised debate, Ron Paul who finished 5Th and ahead of Rudy Giuliani, was given the boot. Even though he fared much better than Rudi, Rudi will be taking his place in the Fox news debate.
This poor decision has led to a flurry of protest calling the word of "Fox News" worthless, their stock has seen a decline that may be related to their bias agenda, and unfair treatment of public opinion. Bloggers have gone insofar as renaming their network the "faux" news network in response to their selective reporting.
Expected protests are now underway, even from within Fox's own ranks, to stick to their word and honor their "top five" promise and include Ron Paul. Even if you do not support Ron Paul, I urge everyone to take part in complaining over the injustice of the fox network. The Fox network is part of the reason that America has sunken to a level equal to that of Slovakia on the list of press freedom. This is an injustice against all Americans and the First Amendment.
