And this I believe: that the free, exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world. And this I would fight for: the freedom of the mind to take any direction it wishes, undirected. And this I must fight against: any idea, religion, or government which limits or destroys the individual. This is what I am and what I am about.

I think it’s funny how afraid the main stream media and other politicians are of Ron Paul. It’s because he is right and he can destroy people like Newt Gingrich with words because he knows exactly what needs to be done and can effectively turn this country around. Ron Paul doesn’t need corporate power to help him. He sticks to who his is and to what he believes in. Regardless of what your outlook is on the upcoming election you have got to take that into account. Ron Paul is a true patriot and loves this country and truly wants the best for it and is the most honest and upfront person in this. I truly believe in him and support him. He is a true inspiration to me as a person.

Ron Paul presenting to the University of Southern Maine

Uploaded by  on Jan 28, 2012

Ron Paul visits the University of Southern Maine. Watch as he explains what sound money and the free market really are. Listen as he deconstructs the Federal Reserve and U.S. foreign policy. This video is a great elucidation of the beliefs of Congressman Paul, especially if you know him only from the Republican debates where he has been largely refused full expression of his thoughts.

Ron Paul: Steadily, 'Our Numbers Are Growing'

by EYDER PERALTA  January 25, 2012 

In a wide-ranging discussion with All Things Considered’s Robert Siegel, Ron Paul, the Republican congressman from Texas, said of all the GOP hopefuls, he’s been the steady one.

“All I know is that the message is powerful,” he said in response to a question about the viability of his campaign. “The message is well-received. Our numbers are growing, and we don’t go up and down like a yo-yo.”

America’s Choice: Ron Paul or Unlimited Government

JANUARY 22, 2012 BY 

Americans do have a choice in this election, but it is not between Obama and one of the other Republicans. There is no substantive difference there. The true choice is between Ron Paul and unlimited government, which is government under Obama, Romney, Gingrich, or Santorum. That means a government that can tax you for anything it wishes to, can detain and search you without warrant or probable cause, and can send soldiers to arrest you and imprison you indefinitely without legal representation, a hearing, or a trial. It is a government whose power knows no limits, that can forcefully control every area of your life and force you to pay for its domination of the entire globe. Whatever happens in the years ahead, Americans cannot say that they did not have an opportunity to choose liberty over tyranny. This may be their last chance.

Watch it. Think about it! Ron Paul is the only Presidential candidate - - - Republican or Democrat - - - who is courageous enough to speak the truth irrespective of its consequence to his own political aspirations. Vote change. Vote peace. Ron Paul: pro-defense; anti-intrusive foreign policy.
