IMHO, start buying lots of Rubles while they are cheap and encourage American citizens to do the same, since Ruble will most likely become the world currency and will appreciate in value very much soon. Once we buy lots of Rubles while they are cheap, we should get out of Iraq ASAP and let Ruble become the world currency. This way, we will hedge against all possible losses the US dollar could have. And instead, we would gain massive capital once the Ruble will appreciate. This is much better than fighting the Ruble.

Ruble and Swiss Frank right now are the strongest; however, swiss frank is dependent on Europe's economy while Europe's economy just like Japanese economy depends on US economy. Ruble, however, is independent, because Russian economy is not dependent on dollar economy or foreign energy, and, therefore, will not be affected by the US economic crash.

Medvedev will probably soon state that they will no longer be accepting US dollars for their energy and will be asking for Rubles only. This will crash USD completely and will make Ruble a world reserve currency.

how is it funny? Russia wants to make Ruble a world currency. US is trying to prevent Russia from doing so. Why???

Buy gazilions of Rubles while they are cheap, then help Russia become a world power and let Ruble become a world currency. Ruble will appreciate hugely and USA will be VERY VERY VERY rich country and there will be peace.

Instead, we are listening to Zionists who want to start a WWIII.

Nationalism is a term referring to a doctrine or political movement, usually defined in terms of ethnicity.

Then you call someone else a segregationist...

Nationalists see nations as an inclusive categorization of human beings - assigning every individual to one specific nation. In fact, nationalism sees most human activity as national in character. Nations have national symbols, a national culture, a national music and national literature; national folklore, a national mythology and - in some cases - a national religion. Individuals share national values and a national identity, admire the national hero, eat the national dish and play the national sport.

Nationalists define individual nations on the basis of certain criteria, which distinguish one nation from another; and determine who is a member of each nation. These criteria typically include a shared language, culture, and/or shared values which are predominantly represented within a specific ethnic group. National identity refers both to these defining criteria, and to the shared heritage of each group. Membership in a nation is usually involuntary and determined by birth. Individual nationalisms vary in their degree of internal uniformity: some are monolithic, and tolerate little variance from the national norms. Academic nationalism theory emphasizes that national identity is contested, reflecting differences in region, class, gender, and language or dialect. A recent development is the idea of a national core culture, in Germany the Leitkultur, which emphasizes a minimal set of non-negotiable values: this is primarily a strategy of cultural assimilation in response to immigration.

I'm not going to play your game all night. I have never heard anyone refer to themself as a nationalist without having a segregationist mindset. Try and backpeddle all you want. Your just mad cause you made a fool of yourself and you were called out on it. Save face and move on.

Anyway, cageybee, I don't see why you care about this movement so much. It's exactly the opposite of what you endorse, and you consistently argue against the exact ideas we espouse. The reason we don't care about what you have to say is because it's the same thing every socialist/communist country has said as an excuse. "The idea is really great, it's just the people wouldn't cooperate!" Well, no duh. Not everyone agrees on everything, and to think people will somehow all agree to lose their rights for your perfect world of drones is foolish. You and I both know it will come to millions dying just like every other time. Let it be. Let it be.

1. What is a Nation?
1.1 The Basic Concept of Nationalism
Although the term “nationalism” has a variety of meanings, it centrally encompasses the two phenomena noted at the outset: (1) the attitude that the members of a nation have when they care about their identity as members of that nation and (2) the actions that the members of a nation take in seeking to achieve (or sustain) some form of political sovereignty. (See for example, Nielsen 1998-99: 9.) Each of these aspects requires elaboration. (1) raises questions about the concept of nation or national identity, about what it is to belong to a nation and about how much one ought to care about one's nation. Nations and national identity may be defined in terms of common origin, ethnicity, or cultural ties, and while an individual's membership in the nation is often regarded as involuntary, it is sometimes regarded as voluntary.



I'll admit, it is somewhat humerous to see a person like you take something as simple as National Pride, and National identity and perevert it into something you got drilled into your head in our finest public school systems.

Nationalism "may" be defined in terms of ethnicity, it may be defined in terms of what angle you clip your friggan toe nails. You know exactly what I was referring to, and you took an assinine stance. Further more, I wasn't even talking to your sorry ass when you jump in here against your own advice and got involved in a conversation you should have kept out of.

yes, but preserving our national sovereignty means no one is allowed to challenge US dollar including Russia. Look at the map of the world. Do you think Russia cares about US dollar??? no. They want Russian Ruble to be the world currency. And we, the people of USA must save not only our country from a complete collapse and mass starvation, should instead by guzillions of Rubles, help Russia make it a world currency and watch our economy saved and our capital grow 1000 times. This will at least give us time to create our own energy and will save the world from death of billions of people and create the biggest partnership of all time between Russia and USA.

In either case, we would lose our sovereignty. Why not just do as Mexico did and use a new currency? (hopefully based on precious metals)

you see, if Russia would see this cooperation from USA, they would look at it as the greatest move US ever made and from that point Russia and USA would be like brothers.

The thing is, Russia will eventually, probably very soon, will make Ruble the world's reserve currency, and the longer we are in its way, the more losses we are taking.

Back in 2000, when Bush learned about Putin and and learned that Putin will work on the rise of oil prices, Bush thought that he should destabilize Iraq, Afghanistan, and Iran, to control oil transactions. This was the biggest mistake.

Back then he should've just get our country heavily invested in Russian rubles and help Russia make Ruble a world reserve currency.

Ruble would grow fast and to the roof, while USA would be the richest country on earth for investing our capital in Russian Ruble.

But this fucking nationlistic-zionistic-nazi pride took us to very costly war with Iraq, Afghanistan, now Iran, later Russia and China. Why?????

Cay, regardless the number, Stalin was no hero.

I work with many Russians every day in the shipping industry and they are glad the soviet system is gone.

I have a great respect for the Russian people, most of them are hard working and honest. That does not mean I have any affection for communists. I also don't think the current government there is perfect either. But I will say they do seem to be bucking the "One World Government" crowd moreso than other nations.

How can you consider Russia to be a superpower when it's GDP is behind the European Union, the United States, Japan, Germany, China, the United Kingdom, France Italy, Canada, Spain and Brazil?

I just don't see the argument for the Russian Ruble be the world's reserve currency when it's GDP is 1/14 the size of the U.S. or EU's, 1/4 the size of Japan's or 1/3 the size of Germany's.

Amero is really a bad idea. While adopting Ruble as early as possible would mean huge (enourmous) capital gains. If America would create a demand for Ruble - Ruble would go to the roof and since we would hold a lot of this currency that's paying high interests like 10%+ we would be gaining and gaining and gaining.

Ruble is going to become a world petro-currency, because Russia produces a lot of energy.

US is dependent of foreign oil for our currency to be a petro-currency. This dependence is very costly to us, because we have to support this freaking peace in the middle-east across the world. We are paying tooo much for our currency to be a petro-currency and a world currency.

We need to jump on Ruble now, help Russia make Ruble a world currency, become partners with another huge country like Russia (instead of Israel), and help Russia to be the intermediary of stability in Eurasia.

Our holdings of Ruble in this case will grow immensely and we will not have to worry about our future.

But if we choose to butt heads with Russia, then we might destroy the whole world.

IChooseLiberty, I was contemplating putting up the link (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=124732) myself, but held back when I saw that flame war was subsiding...

Sometime nitpicking just does no good; best to let sleeping dogs lie and focus on something more useful (e.g. investing in gold for example).

Cay, regardless the number, Stalin was no hero.
The short for cageybee is KGB not Cay.

I have a great deal of respect for the Russian people and that is why I hate to see them get F**Ked over by their leaders just like we are by ours. Putin maybe popular with the russians now but hell 80% of the Americans loved bush until they got smart to him. That sure as heck didn't make him right.

Avaroth's name calling and spewing do very very little to contribute to this discussion. Do yourself a favor and take the night off. You'll probably feel better in the mornoing.

no flaming needed now between members who are Ron Paul supporters...I just don't see the Ruble as a world currency.

look at a rate of Russian GDP growth and look how they are rising to power around the world. Putin has already ordered that Russia will switch from USD to ruble in their energy trade. They were just waiting for Medvedev to become a president. First thing Medvedev will do is they'll stop accepting USD for energy and will be accepting Rubles only. Iran wants Ruble to be used on Iranian Oil Bourse. Ruble will definitely become a Eurasian reserve currency, because everyone needs energy, and because Iran and Russia are major energy suppliers. Ruble is going to be a world-petro currency one way or another. The faster we will realize this the better it will be for everyone and especially for us here in US. If we bought lots of Rubles now and would help Russian Ruble to become a world currency, then we would gain massive amounts of capital once the demand for Ruble would grow. This would give us time to create our own energy, stop wasting billions of dollars on "peace" in other nations, prevent a WWIII, prevent global economic depression, and finally become partners with Russia.
