Maybe this is what Donahue means.

Can someone sort this link out for me ?

No wonder our soldiers are coming back mentally scarred and with a higher rate of suicide than those killed in action.

And Ron is behind in time. Here's what I mean.

Ron Paul makes too much sense. Like 25-years ago sense, or more. I'm wondering if the country has just been too dumbed down and desensitized to understand.

the things going on today EVERYWHERE should astound us - it's inconceivable!

It's 1984 all over again


You are right on more levels than one. I am not a US citizen and I do support most of what Ron Paul says. He is the only candidate that should be let anywhere near the whitehouse. However, his plan to fix the US economy is at least 25 years too late and if implemented today would destroy any hope left for 99% of the US citizens unless he also plans to confiscate all the Gold owned by the 1%. Thats not gonna happen and they wont allow the currency to be backed by a less precious metal without a world war.



Ummm.....Not true.....If you have read his "platform".....you'll see that his intent is to, first "audit" and then phase out the fed and fractional banking......this would take place over the length of his term, not all at once.... Also...when you pare down the federal beast...you gain. When you arent shelling out foreign bribes, in the form of foriegn aid...you gain. when you pare down the military industrial complex...you gain.

Thats a powerful lot of savings that can go back to the people.....The records are there on who paid in.....cut them all a check.......
If you begin to change the nature of the beast from adversarial to practical cooperation...Then suspicion fades and friendship begins. if you set the creative spirit free, then industrious people will transform insight into industry. If we focus on harmony...both with humanity...and with our world......then we can begin to indeed look to the stars..............

Leave behind us....the conquerer mentality and voyage forth as explorer and adventurer.....as long as we also leave behind...naievity...

Bush changed his tune later, but he very much made the case that Hussein was involved with 911. In fact, his administration made Americans believe Hussein was involved in practically every attack on Americans anywhere.
"Listen, we're going to war because President Bush believes Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11. Al Qaeda is a front for Iraqi intelligence.[the U.S.] bureaucracy made a tremendous blunder that refused to acknowledge these links . the people responsible for gathering this information, say in the C.I.A., are also the same people who contributed to the blunder on 9/11 and the deaths of 3,000 Americans, and so whenever this information emerges they move to discredit it."

Yes he wants to get rid of the Fed but he wants to then return to the Gold Standard. You need to do some research as to what that actually means for you.

In Ron Pauls words - The transition would be pretty tough, not written and talked a lot about this and you’d have to device a system where there would be a transition where maybe you could have a gold standard competing with a paper standard and then obviously gold would win out.

Ron Paul wants to phase in "sound" money.
Sound Money

The problem is this. Not only do the federal reserve bankers get paid enormous interest for essentially inflating the money supply, there is no real accountability to HOW MUCH they are inflating the supply, and where it actually goes. The productivity of the U.S. citizen backs the currency, and the U.S. citizen should be PRODUCING the currency.
