Should fair campaign coverage given to those who are not favorites to win Presidential elections.?

How are lesser candidates usually known? A. As crackpots B. As wierdo's C. As not having a chance anyway D. Fame coming through the world pressShould fair campaign coverage given to those who are not favorites to win Presidential elections.?
Yes, the debates should cover all candidates who make enough ballots to theoretically win the Presidency. That is a very pragmatic and difficult to achieve threshold for a third party, and is the threshold Ron Paul suggested for the debates.





Ron Paul was marginalized, but if he hadn't been in the debates, I'd know even less about him. Meanwhile, the issues he raised would never have been addressed and that would have been unfair....to US American citizens.





The Presidency isn't a 'plum' the two major parties compete for, it is representation of an entire nation, and the NATION, not the parties and media, need to be able to have informed consent.Should fair campaign coverage given to those who are not favorites to win Presidential elections.?
No, it is a waste of time and money, we are wasting millions on this stupid election as it is, there is no need to waste more when they don't have a prayer of winning. It may not be fair but the millions we waste on elections is pathetic, can you imagine if this money was put to some good use what we could do with it, lets not waste more. The money that is going straight down the drain is a sin, there should be a cap on what each candidate is allowed to throw away, give that to the poor, increase their welfare checks, build more prisons, roads, military but don't let buy an election.
I think this is something that needs to be addressed but we have more important things to handle first at this time....Our country is crumbling %26amp; we have people that will not vote for a person who can put us in a different direction soon enough. This has to be our top priority...If Obama becomes President I have promised Ron Paul people I will help them after military, economy, issues are addressed that I will help them so that the next election things are fair enough so we can look at these other candidates...the truth is you need power. If a person has personal power nothing outside of them wills stop them....when people cried about them out there stopping them from getting ahead Oprah became a successful women. So using her as an example, I believe that the coverage the candidates you are referring to has to be something they %26amp; their supporters have to do something about by putting energy into this issue. There is no way I am going to put my support into someone who could cause us to have another republican in the white house.
Indeed they should. How are they supposed to gain support with no press time? You can make the argument that they are ';loons because nobody supports them';, but the fact is that they simply don't have as much money to advertise and be on TV.
Yes. The people should be able to hear from ALL the candidates and then let the people decide. The media should be unbiased and not actively campaigning for Obama. Not all media are biased but most unashamedly are.
I think fair, UNBIASED coverage should be given to all candidates.
yes, they should be covered.
