    [FONT=Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif]It is now obvious that Rep. Ron Paul will not be elected President of the United States in November 2008. There are those who have predicted that the Republic will die if Paul is not occupying the White House next January. A dire prediction, most certainly overstated, but considering the candidates left in the offering, it can be said with equal certainty that the Republic is going to be severely damaged by the next administration.

    [FONT=Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif]Rather than throw ourselves in a fetal position and wait for Armageddon, now is the time to make some concrete, long term plans to assure we can elect the next Ron Paul. That, in fact, is exactly what Rep. Paul had in mind when he started his campaign in the first place.[/FONT]

    It's now obvious? It was obvious to my unborn children. And the republic will die because of it? Then our republic isn't worth a hill of beans, then. Our republic does not live or die with the whims of one man.

    Our republic is being destroyed by collectivism, globlalization and a politically ignorant population schooled and conditioned by the collectivists and globalists it puts it's "faith" in it takes more than one man to do all that so in that sense you are right Tom. Liberalism that you folks fear and loathe and focus all your undivided attention on is just a manifestation of the root...collectivism. Same goes for socialism in all it's many shapes and forms. No wonder all our hard work to get a "republican" majority failed. We've all been trying to "cure" the sysmptoms while letting the desease spread because of our false assumptions and loyalties.

    Ron Paul is about the only man who has the courage to stand up and tell us the truth of what has been happening to us and people are listening, maybe not you people that still pin your hopes on corrupt parties and candidates and settle for voting "the lesser of two traitors" but plenty of others are. And even if we fail in our attempt to turn this speeding train around...we at least tried.

    This is but a few who have taken action. Doesn't count those who are just listening or begining to hear the message now.

    Here's the message...in case you haven't heard it yet.

    Not saying he's bad guy or anything, but if he had wanted to be president shouldn't everyone have heard of him.
    I'll check out your link after church.

    Everyone the conglomerated corporate mass media wanted to hear about him heard about him. Mostly in the negative.

    One doesn't have to be POTUS or even popular in the begining to start a revolution in the minds of men. The first American revolutionaries weren't. They just spoke the truth and kept doing it until it sunk in. As a result we were blessed with the republican form of government that Ron Paul and his supporters now defend against the encroachment of (global and domestic) tyranny. :smilewinkgrin:

    Any other "Paulites" want to add anything to this thread?

    It's probably too late for 2008 but by 2012 the message of the Ron Paul Revolution(not the man himself) had best hold sway with the majority of citizens of the United States as the consequences for this nation will be quite dire if it does not. The warfare-welfare state mentality must be defeated if the concepts of liberty are to make a comeback in this nation.

    It is time to look beyond November 2008 on the presidential level and start planning for November 2012.

    It's looks like all we can accomplish in 2008 is to defeat Senator McCain so that he can't destroy the world as we know it through his warfare state policies.

    But unless Senator McCain is defeated there may be no United States, as we know it, to have elections in come 2012.

    Let's stop the warfare state mentality in its tracks in 2008 so that we can go after the welfare state mentality in 2012.

    The only way that is going to happen is if the majority are educated in the ways and means of the warfare/welfare state and shown the true nature of liberty and national sovereignty and it's opposites...global and domestic tyranny. Helping to elect Obama or Clinton isn't going to stop the warfare state Ken they've already pledged their full support to it. Obama and/or Clinton will eagerly carry the warfare state torch to battle in their left hand that's all.

    We're just one "terrorist act" away from absolute tyranny now. It would give the international statists on the so called right and left what they covet most...total control. The warfare/welfare state is the sole beneficiary of "terrorism" and "terrorist acts". That's what we're up against amigos and that is the one message that we must get across to the whole world if we are to save this great nation of ours. It's a big and dangerous challenge. And we'll be slandered, marginalized and demonized by the very state (and those who blindly and un-questioningly put their faith in it) that stands to gain from it mercilessly and non stop.

    Many find comfort in being micro-managed and controlled by the state...I for one do not. That is neither liberty nor freedom. It's slavery and we've been conditioned incrementally to accept it and even love it by the state and a complicit media.
