and he is protested everywhere he goes .

The media just doesn't cover it everytime,
mostly protesters are ignored by the media.

5. wouldn't it be wonderful if a foreign major media outlet put one
of their people on OUR protests? A reporter and cameraman could go from city to city, document the activism and get it on air (overseas) and online.

8. The problem in the US is "Free Speech Zones"
people protest but they're generally 5 miles or more from his actual site (and sight). If they protest outside of the free speech zones, they are arrested (but plenty still do).

We don't see the protests because they are so far away from the camera range. The ones that would actually be in camera range are arrested before the cameras come near.

I remember in HS I was in FFA. I went to national convention and Bush the 1st was speaking there. I was shocked (and I mean shocked) that people were protesting him (this was fall 1991). I was also appalled (what can I say, I was young and stupid) and couldn't believe people would "mess up our convention that way". Now I look at it and think "Wow, how wonderful that they were using their 1st amendment rights".
