Everyone needs to call the Iowa Republican Party - just spoke with them, and they were given strict instructions to only include those candidates who receive 5% of the vote in the American Research Group, Inc., and must be approved by Fox News. Ron Paul only received 1% of the last poll by the American Research Group and the Des Moines Register also figures in somehow. Call the IA Republican Party at 515 282-8105 and voice your objections to this criteria. It is obviously a concentrated effort to keep Dr. Paul from participating. Let them hear the drum beat of the RP rEVOLution! Call now!!! And, let's see who this American Research Group really is.
