What happens if you take out the "bgp always-compare-med" and leave just the
missing-as-worst statement and do a clear ip bgp *

Subject: bgp bestpath med missing-as-worst ?

For some reason the route with the metric of 0 is used. It should be the
worst, because of the bgp bestpath med missing-as-worst command. Does any
one have an idea why the route with the metric of 0 is selected? If I make
the med higher then 100 the other route is selected, so Im sure that is the
step Im at in the selection phase. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
