The Pew Research Center has released findings which show Texas Congressman, Ron Paul, receives little media coverage on his 2012 presidential candidacy.

The centers Project for Excellence in Journalism shows Paul carries just 2 percent of news headlines, a topic of concern among some Paul supporters.

Supporters have criticized the major media outlets for allegedly ignoring the candidate and dismissing the libertarian stance.

Congressman Paul has a history of strong, and sometimes extreme, stances. His End the Fed argument calls for the abolition of the Federal Reserve and an overhaul of Americas economic system. However his arguments on the deficit, health-care and the string of bail-outs has garnered support.

Pauls campaign has not ignored the under-reporting and is taking advantage of the stance. RonPaul2012.com, the official campaign website, displays a photo of Ron Paul as censored and is asking for donations.

President Barrack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama shared a pint of Guinness with villagers at  Ollie Hayes Pub in Moneygall, Ireland earlier today.

Obama and his wife entered Ollie Hayes pub at 3:45 p.m. after being greeted by a cheering crowd.

The Village of Moneygall had been eagerly waiting for the President’s visit to the town;  also home to the President’s great-great-great-grandfather, Falmouth Kearney.

The American President shares heritage with 3 families from the village, from which some representatives were present.  “There are millions of Irish Americans who trace their ancestry back to this beautiful island.” Obama said, citing the Irish influence on America.

Ollie Hayes Pub is not ignorant on Obama. The pub is decorated with posters and Obama memorabilia from the 2008 election, where the Ollie Hayes clientele celebrated Obama’s heritage.

The president took the time to give appreciative feedback to his hosts, adding to it by saying he was thrilled to be there; before moving to chug a pint of Guinness to the traditional toast of  “Slainte!” (to health).
