Ron Paul probably made the wrong decision on this...because Newt Gingrich already said Yes to this debate hosted by Donald Trump on Dec 27th. So what if Trump is what Ron Paul refers to as a "reality show host"? Ronald Reagan was an actor before becoming Prez! So why can't Donald Trump host a debate? He has the largest private-holdings in New York, over $9 billion worth of business holdings in 2010, he wasn't always a "reality show host", just for the past few years. If Ron Paul wants a chance to become President for a few years, he should be on every debate from now until the nominee is chosen. http://conservativebyte.com/2011/12/ron-paul-says-no-to-trump-debate-and-disses-trump/ From Newsmax.com ... << Donald Trump’s organization is the largest privately held company in the New York metropolitan area. The Trump Organization had estimated 2010 revenues of $9.2 billion, with 20,300 employees and interests in real estate development, hotels, casinos, golf courses, entertainment and product licensing, according to Crain’s New York Business. The publication reported that it ranked New York-area companies that are “independent, privately held entities with no parent. Nonprofits, hospitals, mutual companies, travel agencies and partnerships — including accounting firms, law firms, and consulting firms — are excluded.” The petrochemical firm Transammonia Inc. was second on the list with $8.4 billion in revenues last year. Also in the top 10 was business news provider Bloomberg LP (No. 4 with $6.9 billion). >>
