Ron Paul Lives in the rEVOLutionaries

The thing that has been striking me lately is that Ron Paul's campaign has been making big things happen... without the help of Ron Paul or his employees. We are the ones making this happen. This November Fifth was the biggest thing to hit an election that was not organized by the campaign itself.

What I need to say is that Ron Paul lives inside each and every one of us. We are the rEVOLutionaries. I feel like we put so much of our effort, making our own signs, making our own campaign literature, organizing our own events to promote Ron Paul, because we feel like that as Ron Paul runs for president, we are also running. As a supporter, it feels like he taps into something inside of me that makes me feel like the man running and that is why I put forth the work I do.

This must mean that Ron Paul punches supporters with his views on issues right into our hearts and we feel so strongly about him and his views that feel like if he loses, we lose our liberty. And this seems to be the case with many Ron Paul supporters I have talked to. We put forth our own time and effort because we all realize that Ron Paul was an underdog, we realize that he needs the support we give him, and most of all we realize that we will lose what the United States were founded on if we do not convince others that Ron Paul is a true presidential candidate.

I have seen many different events organized solely on that of different MeetUp groups or with just a group of friends who convert others to Ron Paul to help them. I have seen and heard of many cases where Ron Paul supporters show up to rallies for other candidates to try to convert others to Ron Paul. These are things that you might expect a campaign to do, but we do this voluntarily. Ron Paul does not have to contact his supporters to get them to do something to help him, we find out what needs to be done and we do it for him so he can spend more time on the campaign trail doing what needs to be done.

We are, as rEVOLutionaries, the body of Ron Paul. Ron Paul is not like other candidates that have supporters just because their supporters feel there is just no one else better to vote for so they might as well vote for them. Ron Paul supporters actually feel strongly about his views. We feel strongly about our candidate, so strongly that we donate and donate and donate our hard-earned money so that we can feel a stability in our future with a Ron Paul presidency. We work and work and work for Ron Paul so that we can feel safe that our military is out of harms way, our friends and family being out of the war zone. And we give much of our time convincing others and converting others to Ron Paul. We spend hours on the Internet talking about Ron Paul with others because we feel strongly enough that we can carry on hours of conversation about Ron Paul. No other campaign can have thousands of supporters just sitting around and talking about them for hours except Ron Paul.

We come to Ron Paul's aid when he needs it. We will drop everything for our candidate. If Ron Paul is insulted, we responded by the masses to criticize those who insult him, we gather by the masses to show our support and get Ron Paul in the news when others are dismissing him as a serious candidate. If Ron Paul needs us, we are there.

We are the best supporters in all of politics. We are the ideal supporter who is supporting because they feel strongly for a candidate, not because the candidate is a popular choice. We are the most determined in all of politics. We will fight for our liberty and country no matter what it takes. We are all people of different gender, age, and race united under the principle that our country was founded. We are people who would never even speak that have been brought together by Ron Paul. We are a nation united from East to West. We do this through Ron Paul, with Ron Paul, and for Ron Paul.
We make the Revolution happen. We are the Ron Paul Revolutionaries. And we will never forget.

Mukasey Sworn in As Attorney General

Michael Mukasey was sworn in as the attorney general today by President Bush. He says he plans to be independent. He seems like he should have been the right man for the job long ago. With 18 years of experience, he is known as a fair judge while he served on the bench after being appointed by President Reagan. He is praised for making the right calls in key cases involving terrorism. He has also been the Chief Judge of the Federal Court system.

Mukasey is known for his toughness on national security cases, especially terrorism, while still being fair. He remained tough on those in the trial of 1995 for the 1993 planned terrorist attack on New York City by sentencing the two main defendants to life in prison. He also maintained that the government could hold Jose Padillas without charging him. He did, however, allow Padillas to meet with his lawyers, which is required to have a fair trial.

Mukasey is the right man for this job. He is a tough judge that won't budge on things that the Constitution says to charge for. He makes sure the punishments are severe enough to make the point of the trial worth it. He also is an acception to what most of us are used to, government corruption. He has allowed fair trials to his cases by allowing the defendants to meet with lawyers and give them a fair trial with an unbiased view. He doesn't let his views get in the way of true justice and that is what makes him a good judge. A judge must remain open to the trial and allow a fair trial without letting personals get in the way of another person's future. Mukasey allows this. He is the right man for this job with his expertise, experience, and fairness in law.

Thompson more Conservative than Ron Paul? How

Recently, I have received many messages and e-mails saying that Fred Thompson is more conservative than Ron Paul. They gave me links to places to prove their point. I read them and could not figure out how Thompson is more conservative than Ron Paul.

To me, conservatism is being as small as possible in other countries affairs that have nothing to do with us. Ron Paul wants to bring troops home. Fred Thompson wants to keep our troops in other countries to "protect our country." How does having troops somewhere else and not here protect us. Sure the countries we have troops in may not be killing each other (because they are killing us), but that gives us less people to protect us as Americans if there is a terrorist attack. How do you protect by being miles and miles away?

Thompson more conservative than Ron Paul? I don't see it.

I Will Give All my Earning from my blog to Ron Paul Tea Party

I will be giving all earnings from this blog that I get from this blog to Ron Paul at the Tea Party event. From now until December 16 all my earnings will be saved and given to Ron Paul. This is my way of helping out Ron Paul through this blog. I don't need the money, but Ron Paul's campaign does, and that is saying that America does.

If you yourself want to donate, please go to http://www.teaparty07.com/ the site for this money bomb that I hope puts Paul over his 4th Quarter fundraising goal.

Ron Paul ahead of Thompson in New Hampshire, still a long shot

In recent poll in New Hampshire Ron Paul is polling ahead of a so called GOP front-runner in Fred Thompson. Ron Paul is still considered a long shot however. Ron Paul is also dangerously close to passing Thompson in Iowa.

So I have to wonder, how is Ron Paul a long shot while Thompson is still a front-runner? Ron Paul polls ahead of Thompson in two of the most important primary states. Ron Paul is clearly still on the rise as his polling numbers have been increasing steadily throughout the year.

The media is finally taking note of Ron Paul as a serious candidate also. He is getting publicity through media that is not trying to put him down and relish him to nothing. Recently he has had more coverage on CNN by far than Thompson, and I am not just talking about after the money-bomb, but also before. Ron Paul also fundraises as a front-runner.

This is what truly puzzles me. The coverage and fundraising and polling is as good or better for Ron Paul than Fred Thomspon, yet nobody is recognizing Paul as a front-runner, but have no problem in saying Fred Thomspon is one. People have no problem saying they wouldn't be surprised if Thomspon wins the nomination, but when someone says Ron Paul has a legit chance they will not take it. How does this work? It doesn't. The GOP is truly flawed as is the elections in this age.

The media is having an effect on the elections, and is basically being given power to choose candidates. The media can choose who they want to cover and who they cover is who the people see. The media can pretty much keep a serious candidate from winning if they don't want him to win by keeping him off their station. The media is a negative effect on fair elections. I am not saying it is a negative effect on elections, but it does not allow for fair elections.

It is time for us, as American citizens, to take back our country and find some way to get the media to recognize all candidates and allow for a fair election that will give people the knowledge to choose the person they see as the best candidate, whoever that may be.

The Dollar in Ten Years without Ron Paul

One of the major selling points Ron Paul had to get me to support him is his stance on the soundness of the American dollar. It has made me think about what will be made of the dollar if Ron Paul cannot win the election and work to return to a sound dollar.

None of the other candidates in this election have even said anything about the dollar which means chances are they arent thinking about it. This means that these candidates will probably continue the unsafe spending of presidents in recent history. We have been spending more than we have and the country is in a $3 trillion debt. Yet we are still printing more and more paper money everyday, but not getting any real money to back it up as we are actually losing money each day. The value of the dollar goes down with each bill printed, with each day, with each loan we take out from another country.

If we leave this to be fixed by a president who isn't even talking about it how can we move increasing the value of the dollar? The value of a dollar is as low as it has ever been and decreasing each day. I am scared to think about what my life will be like in 10 years with a low valued dollar. What will I be getting each day for work? Nothing? Close to it. Think of how hard traveling overseas will become. Trading currency will be nearly impossible. You will need twice as many dollars to get a certain amount of foreign currency as you do today.

That is one of my major hooks that have me connected to Ron Paul. Ron Paul had me when he talked about returning to sound money. I am still young and this is a big part of my future. He has me with how he plans to cut government spending so we do not need to loan as much and can begin to pay off our debts. As we pay of these debts we will be returning value to our dollar because our money will not just be paper, it will not belong to another country, it will belong to us and the paper dollars will be back by our country's gold and that is what we truly need. We cannot stay a power or have any economic standing in the world in the future if we cannot return to a sound dollar and that is what has me following Ron Paul.

Candidates Rely too Much on Advisers

In recent news Mitt Romney's advisers have told him not to give a speech on his Mormon faith. This brings me to wonder whether or not the actual candidates can do much of anything on their own without advisers. Romney had said he wanted to give a speech to explain his Mormon faith, but his political advisers are telling him not to.

So this brings me to this thought. Politicians rely too much on their advisers. As voters, are we voting for a candidate or his advisers? It seems as though we vote for their advisers. The candidates are just their because of their history, but what they do on campaigns to get people to vote for them looks as if their advisers are the ones telling them what to do.

Think about this, most candidates have some one who writes their speeches, so how do you know if what the candidate is saying is what he wants to be saying. An advisers usually tells candidates where to campaign, so how do you know if the candidate truly feels like getting the type of people his advisers tell him to go after?

The campaigns of each man have so many different employees and advisers, it makes me wonder. How can a person run our country if they can't run their own campaign? How can we expect the candidate to make the right decisions in the White House if he can't even make his own decisions to get to the White House?

I do not think that I can trust a candidate to run the country that I love and live for if he cannot do much of anything on his own. I can understand if you have some employees because you can't campaign everywhere at once, but having other people tell you what to give speeches on or not should not be part of these campaigns.
