Because of apathetic followers like YOU!
I don't follow Ron Paul....or any of these BS candidates. You need a course in political history to see what is really going on and why.
As you can see the congress doesn't try to stop a single legislation, bill, law or even try to find out the repercussions of their actions..and even when they do, they don't care...WHY??? Because they are all bought and paid. You will see what i mean soon enough. Despite protests, marches, talk show hosts, documentaries the NWO plans are still marching forward...uninhibited.
