Google Trends Proves Ron Paul is a Top Tier Candidate

by Anthony Astolfi

Google Trends is a tool from Google Labs that shows the most popularly searched terms from the beginning of 2004 to now.

Google Trends charts how often a particular search term is entered relative the total search volume across various regions of the world, and in various languages. The horizontal axis of the main graph represents time (starting from some time in 2004), and the vertical is how often a term is searched for relative the total number of searches, globally. (Thanks Wikipedia)



The following is a chart with all of the "Main Tier" candidates:







Unlike most internet tracking devices such as polls which people claim that Ron Paul supports spam, this is a highly scientific and tamper proof way of tracking what percentage of actual individuals reference or search for a given term across the internet.



Most interesting about Ron Paul's success is how he handily beats all contenders with only Fred Thompson even coming close, here is the order as far as Google Trends is concerned:

1. Ron Paul


2. Fred Thompson


3. Mitt Romney


4. John McCain


5. Rudy Giuliani
   
   

You will also notice by looking on the area of the chart that says "News Reference Volume" (the bottom half) that Ron Paul is dead last, which means he has the least coverage by online news sources (ie. Fox, CBS) but he still has managed to spread message via the internet better then any other candidate.
