President Ron Paul

If you believe the mainstream media, the presidential election is practically over: America wants a change, and Hillary Clinton will win the Democratic nomination and the Presidency.

If that prospect scares you as much as it does me, please read on. Even if you think another President Clinton would be good for America, please read on.

There is one candidate who consistently fights for the blessings of liberty and the principles our country was founded on: Ron Paul. During his years in Congress, Dr. Paul has never voted for a law that was not expressly authorized by the Constitution. Take a look at Ron Paul’s positions on the important issues of the day, and see if this is a candidate you can support.

The media has been insistent on painting Dr. Paul as a “fringe” candidate who could never win. The truth is that they don’t want him to win. They want an administration that will continue the big-government, anti-freedom policies of the Clinton-Bush years.

One way to break through this is money. The media may love big government, but they love a good story even more. There is a move afoot to raise more money in one day than any candidate has done this year, and Dr. Paul’s campaign just may do it. So far, the campaign has raised over two million dollars today. Another million and it will beat the previous record that Mitt Romney set in January.

This will get the media’s attention! And it will get the attention of people like a friend who told me, “I’ve never heard of Ron Paul. How could he win? I want to vote for someone who can win!”

Of course, if you really believe the “don’t waste your vote” theory, you should simply follow the polls, find out who is going to win, and vote for them. Right now that looks like Hillary.

I have never donated to a political campaign before, but I donated to Ron Paul’s campaign today. If you want to bring freedom and liberty back to America, please consider doing the same. Even a small donation will make a difference.

eliminate the department of education? department of energy? FEMA? etc etc etc?

i’m glad that ron paul runs on his positions, rather than on politics, but his positions are nutty as a whole. individual ones are quite seductive, but the whole picture is a recipe for, well, a recipe for knocking down an entire society that despite many flaws, still functions quite well.

Great post Michael. I live in the UK, but have know about Ron Paul since I was about 16 or so. We really don’t have politicians like that in this country. No one speaks out against anything, its just the same old lines.

It would be great to see Ron Paul at least make a big dent into Republicrats. I particularly like how he has harnessed social media and avenues like YouTube
