Thread: Ron Paul on the Issues

Get ready! The MSM will be in full LYING mode tonight saying Mittens has clinched the nomination! RP's GENIUS plan? Yep!

We all know that Mittens doesn't have the 1,144 delegates required to clinch the nomination.

In fact right now he only has around 500 hard delegates.

That's less than half required!

THE NEWS FROM THE LYING MEDIA WILL CAUSE PEOPLE TO STAY HOME from the state conventions thinking that Romney has it in the bag.

That will allow Ron Paul people to acquire even more delegates and positions of leadership in the GOP!

I believe this has been RP's genius plan since he halted his campaigning!

ONWARD TO TAMPA to nominate Ron Paul!!!!~

Get ready! The MSM will be in full LYING mode tonight saying Mittens has clinched the nomination! RP's GENIUS plan? Yep! | Peace . Gold . Liberty | Ron Paul 2012

It's amazing how a video can influence and educate someone. I posted two videos on my Facebook page the first about the Fed and the second Ron Paul's Bad Dream speech (which I love if you haven't seen it you have to!) My hope in doing so was understanding on a simplistic level for all those who's eyes gloss over when I mention Ron Paul. It felt so good when one of the most important people to me just called and said I get it now kid, I get it, thank you.

So I thought I would share these two videos with you together, as specifically the second made such a major impact on my life. I apologize if they have already been posted, I searched and didn't find them, but it's always great to have a refresher.

Ron Paul - Bad Dream Speech



Congressman Ron Paul of Texas enjoys a national reputation as the premier advocate for liberty in politics today. Dr. Paul is the leading spokesman in Washington for limited constitutional government, low taxes, free markets, and a return to sound monetary policies based on commodity-backed currency. He is known among both his colleagues in Congress and his constituents for his consistent voting record in the House of Representatives: Dr. Paul never votes for legislation unless the proposed measure is expressly authorized by the Constitution. In the words of former Treasury Secretary William Simon, Dr. Paul is the "one exception to the Gang of 535″ on Capitol Hill.

Ron Paul was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He graduated from Gettysburg College and the Duke University School of Medicine, before proudly serving as a flight surgeon in the U.S. Air Force during the 1960s. He and his wife Carol moved to Texas in 1968, where he began his medical practice in Brazoria County. As a specialist in obstetrics/gynecology, Dr. Paul has delivered more than 4,000 babies! He and Carol, who reside in Lake Jackson, Texas, are the proud parents of five children and have eighteen grandchildren.

While serving in Congress during the late 1970s and early 1980s, Dr. Paul's limited-government ideals were not popular in Washington. He served on the House Banking committee, where he was a strong advocate for sound monetary policy and an outspoken critic of the Federal Reserve's inflationary measures. He also was a key member of the Gold Commission, advocating a return to a gold standard for our currency. He was an unwavering advocate of pro-life and pro-family values. Dr. Paul consistently voted to lower or abolish federal taxes, spending, and regulation, and used his House seat to actively promote the return of government to its proper constitutional levels. In 1984, he voluntarily relinquished his House seat and returned to his medical practice.

Dr. Paul returned to Congress in 1997 to represent the 14th Congressional district of Texas. He serves on the House Financial Services Committee and the Foreign Affairs Committee. On the Financial Services Committee, Rep. Paul serves as the chairman of the Subcommittee on Domestic Monetary Policy and Technology. He continues to advocate a dramatic reduction in the size of the federal government and a return to constitutional principles.

Dr. Paul is the author of several books, including The Revolution: A Manifesto, End the Fed, Liberty Defined, Challenge to Liberty; The Case for Gold; and A Republic, If You Can Keep It. He has been a distinguished counselor to the Ludwig von Mises Institute, and is widely quoted by scholars and writers in the fields of monetary policy, banking, and political economy. He has received many awards and honors during his career in Congress, from organizations such as the National Taxpayers Union, Citizens Against Government Waste, the Council for a Competitive Economy, and countless others.

Dr. Paul's consistent voting record prompted one Congressman to comment that "Ron Paul personifies the Founding Fathers' ideal of the citizen-statesman. He makes it clear that his principles will never be compromised, and they never are." Another Congresswoman added that "There are few people in public life who, through thick and thin, rain or shine, stick to their principles. Ron Paul is one of those few."

Thank you to all the great guys here at dailypaul.com. You are doing a great job. Ron Paul has some supporters over here in Germany, too. We are hoping to build a freedom movement here, but we could you use Ron Paul here (yoo don't happen to have another one you could send to Europe, do you)?
Freedom unites us all.

International sign-wave day?

Submitted by karicia on Tue, 05/29/2012 - 14:56.
I always thought we should have an international Ron Paul sign wave day and collage a bunch of photos and video clips from all the different states and countries. Maybe everyone send in a photo/video clip and say why they support Ron Paul. Bet that could make an amazing video!

In consideration of our present struggle, we could use

Submitted by betty on Wed, 05/23/2012 - 10:43.
positive media coverage. In fact, I was thinking could there be something like "Around the World with Ron Paul" with a interview with citizens of different countries. I think it would make a great you tube and it could be turned into the media. Perhaps Rachel Maddow might be interested in it. If we showed American and the World that Ron Paul is a symbol of freedom that has sparked not only a nationwide movement, but a worldwide movement, perhaps this could strengthen our movement. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Lot of my friends are Ron Paul supporters. The other day my father, also an RP fan, was traveling and stayed over on a farm, and the owner happened to be a really big fan. The message really resonates. Funny thing is that most people I know in SA who is RP fans, either dislikes TV/MSM or does not even own a TV.

Most countries represented here does not know what a half way failed state looks like. You do not know how painful it is. I pay 38% on the upper tax bracket. Because of my race I am not allowed to apply for government bursaries, and even though my language group pays roughly half of the governments taxes, they are actively removing my language from universities, schools and institutions. I live in a well to do neighborhood, 4 years ago we had about 30 armed house robberies per year, we had one murder and two rapes and many more burglaries. At that point, even though most of the people living here work full days, we started getting two way radios, doing patrols and training ourselves. We now run neighborhood watches that are better trained than the average SA police officer, we generally treat suspects better, and we follow the letter of the law. We have self installed and owned camera networks, ANPR software (developed by the community) and protocols on how to handle anything from taxi violence to xenophobic attacks, through to how to convince our useless city council to change streetlights. We are first on scene with car accidents and we were first on scene to save people from a local flood. Our crime has gone down to the point where we have not had a burglary in 6 months and an armed robbery in 18 months.
Our response teams have equipment, bulletproofs, pepper-spray, paint-ball guns, tazers and some have real guns, we have docket teams that document everything in case some police officer happens to misplace the docket (rather common) and we have teams that give first medical and trauma response. All this is done on a volunteer basis. At some point when the local and national government implodes on itself through its own stupidity
My point is that a community that REALLY want it (whatever the "it" is) and work for it will most likely get it and few things can stop you. If a community does not get it, it is because they really did not want it. Luckily the Ron Paul people really want it, so I am guessing you/we are going to change the world with this movement. You do need broad participation, and deep involvement, which brings more participation.
You just keep your head down and keep working your ass off.

Ron Paul is a true hero and so are all of you fighting so hard to become delegates, sending money and doing everything you can to educate and fight for a better US and WORLD!

We are fighting up here too led by students protesting a hike in tuition fees. Our provincial government tried to fight back with a law banning gatherings of more than 10 people (!). Today 300,000 people took to the streets in Montreal to peacefully demonstrate against the tyranny of our government. I'm doing everything I can to educate people on the central bank of Canada which is like the FED and is the root of all ailments in our society too.
For liberty my friends!

What I find great about the United States is that, even though your government is going insanely more powerful and rogue every day, people are waking up and the message of liberty is spreading like fire !

So on the long run I think you guys will be OK.

However, in Europe, and especially in socialist France where I am, this message does not spread nearly as fast.

There is no fire, just a tiny spark lost in a universe of statist ideas.

That's why we desperately need a Ron Paul here, otherwise our future won't be as bright as the one you'll have.

Ron Paul wins America by far. Ron Paul wins every region. Ron Paul wins all but two cities listed. Cities showing more support for the other guy are: New York & Chicago. Washington DC shows bias toward the other guy. Imagine.

PS: The news coverage charted in Google Trends show the other guy with many more news mentions... Many times over.

PSS: Curiously, despite the bias for coverage of the other guy, "No news articles were found."

PSSS: Mitt Romney chart somewhere near the middle on both charts. Whether measured by Search or Media Coverage, Google Trends indicates Mitt is mediocre. One Fox News showed up about "Bullying Mitt Romney?"

I'm pretty sure thats what the Goldman Sach's Candidate A and his back up would like

either way we are prepared to bale and go third party

there aint no way in hell we would even consider voting for Mittens

Romney should drop out now, he is the biggest threat to the Republican party. The Republican party is going extinct if it can't change what it is doing now. The GOP has shown its hand this election cycle, too many Republicans have been disenfranchised by the establishments scorched earth policy to get Romney in as the nominee.

Maybe some day the masses will wake up to the massive corruption both major parties are infested with. But maybe not.
