Hi,
Consider this article:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/15/world/asia/15china.html?_r=1&pagewanted=print
Now I can copy and paste this article into nano.
If I try to do it in Emacs console mode (emacs -nw), it doesn't paste
all of it. Why and how do I fix? I believe it does paste all of it when
I'm in graphical mode.

if you're in a console, do it the console way: append the text to a text file
and edit that.

And how do I append the text to a text file?
Keep in mind that this is a whole article I've copied to the clipboard.
And besides, this is not a solution to the question posed: I can copy
and paste it fine in nano, and perhaps in other console apps. Why not
Emacs? There must be a reason, and a fix. It wouldn't be Emacs were
there not!

$ xclip -out >> text_file

With XTerm you can use the mouse middle button.
Don't know about other vts.

I _am_ using the middle mouse button. The problem is that Emacs has
trouble with some characters (or so I guess), so it skips a lot of text.

Oops, sorry I missed that part. I see. Never really used
x-clipboard-yank. And yes, it works fine with the gui version.
