Ron Paul on Google Trends

As I write this, in the wake of tonight’s Republican debate, he is number 7 on Google Trends.  Plastic Man is number 8, to my surprise.  No other candidates appear among the top 20 searches.

UPDATE: Now #4.

Unlearn the Propaganda!

    Something I find interesting about RP is how much international interest and support he gets. There have been as many Canadian searches for RP as Romney has gotten in the US… I’ve seen many encouraging comments on YouTube and elsewhere from overseas in support of RP.
