REACTION TO PAUL RYAN; MY SURPRISE FACE

Paul Ryan is a radical right-winger. By definition, radicals are a minority. If that were not true, people would not call them radicals. When the first reactions to Paul Ryan’s appointment as a VP candidate were not good, even among most conservatives, it should have been no surprise. The radical elements of the conservative party only talk to one another as evidenced by FOX News, Glen Beck, Anne Coulter, Reince Priebus, Jim DeMint, Rush Limbaugh. The list seems long but with three million plus people in the country, it is very, very small.  It only seems large because public media is control by the very rich. If you want to forecast the results of the presidential election between Obama and Romney look at the results of the Goldwater-Johnson elections. He espoused the same basic radial ideas as Ryan only modified by 48 years; thanks to public web sites like Google, Facebook, etc, the entire country knows what those ideas are and they are radical.
