Alright now.
Those of us who have read Dr. Pauls articles and books for years would have never dreamed he could get this far. I still think I am going to wake up in a puddle any moment now.
Everything that has occured so far is EXACTLY what we figured would happen years ago if he "ever ran again". But still we support him because he is making the case for liberty.
The way I saw it, I assumed that it will be USSA, and our route would be people like us getting hauled off while the sheep cheered over spoonfuls of ice cream.
But no. Now the case is made. The enemy - the elites, NWO, leviathan, etc - are seeing a declaration in the works and it is manifested in this campaign.
They had it locked in. America was reduced to two choices: socialist gun-grabbing tree hugger or warmongering police/soldier/state-worshipping fascist. The rest of us could look on and expect an "Alien versus Predator" state where no matter which faction wins, we all lose. Or perhaps someone would come along who, it would be stated, was a “uniter, not a divider”. Just like Hitler who combined nationalism and socialism. Let’s see, we have more warfare and more welfare while the corporations are in bed with government. But none dare call it what it needs to be called.
But no. We, with the help of Ron Paul, ruined that. All the media control (and they won't let this go, the internet WILL be under attack in the next few years) they had is gone. The control of both parties is gone. Sure Ron might have trouble with the republican party, but that spirit, and it may well be the spirit of 1776, is spreading. Look at what the democrats have done recently using the Obama campaign to throw a wrench into the gears of the Clinton Political Machine.
I do not intend to denigrate the college-aged youth that drives the campaign. As a matter of fact I have high regards for them. America went down on my watch and I fear not the jackboot for I deserve to die for my failure. When I was that age, all I cared about was getting laid and a faster car and video games and look what came of that. It was only after being out of country for 4 years that this frog felt the water much hotter than those who were put in it when it was only lukewarm.
Put trying to put it back together failed throughout the 90s and for the last 7 years. All we had were Ron’s articles on lewrockwell.com to remind us that there was AT LEAST ONE representative who still cared about liberty. I never lived in his district but have made donations to him since 2001 – the first one being the time we shot up UN flags with our politically incorrect rifles and sent them to Dr. Paul with donations.
Those of use who have watched and waited for years knew exactly what was going to happen.
And now that the actions of the government-MSM Complex and the political machine have collectively, through the use of misinformation, blackout, lies, smears, and outright threachery, smacked the Ron Paul banners out of the kids’ hands and say “STFU! WE OWN YOU”, the results are obvious. The enemy gets what it wants.
We could have said it would not be easy. We could have warned you but that would not have been a good thing. It was better that my generation – failures all of us – did not put a damper on what is likely the return of the Spirit of 1776.
So I am here to say that the Emo Kid thing I am seeing these days should stop. Not like you have a choice because if you think you are sad now wait a few years. And I can tell you from experience that sitting around thinking you are doomed does not work.
Stay the course.
I need not have to go through all of the great things accomplished in this campaign. If I could go back in a time machine and find myself and explain what was going on now, I would have presumed my future residence in that case to be one with padded walls.
What would be wrong with going forward, full force, caring not what the MSM thinks of us, or what the people – zombies that they are – think, sticking it to the status quo where “Truth is treason in the empire of lies”, and having a good time at it?
Nothing wrong at all.
But there is something that the new movement and all those new patriots have that we older farts (older to most of those in college anyway) have that we did not have in the last 15 years of Clinton-Bush dynasty: friends in the field.
A patriot’s life was a lonely one in the past. Back in my day (oh here we go again), those of us who though the system was a fraud and saw manipulation and injustice in it were quite alone. It was in may respects like a George Romero film where it felt like everybody else had become a mindless zombie and you and just a few others were still alive. There IS a lot of social commentary in the George Romero “dead” films and that’s why I use this example.
But now no patriot is alone. And if there is one thing this revolution does that matters so much to the future, it is bringing us together. I have, in past political activities, given flyers to people who acted like an angel came to them. Imagine someone in a world of ghosts, long given up in spirit themselves, crossing paths with someone who says “Hey! I am alive like you and I know you are too!” That is what the reaction was like.
I have only recently discovered these forums yet have been on forums for many years. I know well the people on other forums, patriots like the ones you find here and elsewhere, but this campaign is forming a bridge.
I am reminded most of a lesser known part of Patrick Henry’s speech, elsewhere most of us are hung up on “liberty or death”:
“The millions of people, armed in the holy cause of liberty, and in such a country as that which we possess, are invincible by any force which our enemy can send against us. Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Besides, sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery!”
So we are it. The social network must grow stronger and differences put aside. There is no choice in the matter and regardless of what it takes, this revolution will win one way or the other.
To fall to defeatism and despair will not only defeat us, but it will destroy everything that Ron Paul has done for us on our behalf. Even he says it’s not about him, it’s about the ideas. Yet look as this denigration because the enemy wants to play rough and the zombies’ only response to it is “brains” and more mindless shuffling around. Ron is not a young man and he also takes great personal risk by stating a desire to eliminate the Fed and IRS – a move that would deny power and money to some very powerful moneyed people who use any means to keep that power.
I am all for staying the course, beyond the caucuses, primaries, and September. I am for working with my “friends in the field”. Who cares if we lose or are destined to lose! Are we the people who are to be quietly shoved into boxcars while outnumbering the soldiers 100 to 1 and not making one last chance to go for the throat, as if not doing anything ensured survival? Are we to just give up and “sheeple out” until it all comes back to haunt each and every one of us someday? No.
Stay the course, hold the ground, and let’s take this fight to whatever end destiny has, be it ballots or bullets. You don’t have to like it.
But as Dr. Paul says it is an honor to be a part of our revolution as he musters great strength and cost to represent us, it will also be an honor to work with all of you in this great fight.
Do not give up, ever. I know I will not.
