Thanks, Ron Paul
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lately, there are a few Ron Paul "supporters" who have decided to attack the good Doctor. But here is one Constitutionist who wishes to say "thanks".

There have been a number of attacks on Ron Paul by a handful of his "supporters". Nolan Chart's own Jesse James Jones, Jr. is among this small but vocal group. In his article Ron Paul is a Quitter!!!!!, he said,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Who gives a flying spec of manure about Ron Paul? I now have the obvious standard for whether a candidate is real…if he makes his campaign about Vote Fraud first (not only but first) then he or she is a real candidate if not they are full of shit!!!!!! Paul is nothing more than a diversion. I’ve had my reservations about Ron Paul since the first "status of the campaign" video. He is a hack, a quitter and more important a fraud. He’s put more effort into hocking his little book than intelligently STRATEGICALLY and legitimately running for President. Also, he keeps saying that he doesn’t want this r3VOLution to lie on his shoulders. What a punk!!
...remember these are my feelings so any attempts to "correct me" is fruitless, this is how I feel and I’ll bet every dollar in my pocket I’m not alone in thinking it….BTW I want my donation back!!!!!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, enough of that. I'll resist the urge to lose my professionalism and vent how I really feel about such childish ranting.
Those of us who have been fighting for Constitutional government ever since a Big Mac cost $1 knew that Ron Paul's candidacy was a worthy, but long-shot endeavor. Nobody, but NOBODY is going to threaten the Elite's Fiefdom without drawing all the ire and dirty tricks we witnessed over the past year or so. But people like Jesse think their donation to Ron's campaign came with a money-back guarantee. And that is one of the issues that prompted me to write this article.
Those who believe that defending freedom and liberty is akin to successfully lobbying for some pork earmark is BS'ing themselves. If you want some such project in your district, send a donation to a PAC or hire a lobbyist and, most likely... voi la! Pork commeth. But defending freedom and liberty doesn't work that way. We are ALL responsible (including you, Jesse) to step up to the plate, sacrifice your time and money and maybe, just maybe, progress will be made. Anybody who thinks just one person can single-handedly slay the Elite beast doesn't have a clue about what American is really up against. I'll admit that I was tempted to dream that the Revolution would blast through the Elite's containment field and put Ron in the White House. But when that didn't happen, like most I had the common sense to lightly touch down from my moment of fancy and appreciate the real progress we all made.
As one who for two decades watched Ron Paul read into the Congressional Record his special orders at 11:00 pm after everyone but the Congressional Steno had long since gone beddy-bye, it often seemed like he was freedom's last voice on the Hill. Did that stop him? Undaunted, he continued his noble work in spite of the smirks and snickers from the whores and prostitutes who occupy our House. I cannot imagine how hard that must have been for him... knowing he was right but suffering so much for so long at the hands of those who are among our nation's biggest traitors.
As one who has previously run for Congress on a Constitutionist's platform, I could understand his initial reluctance to make this run at the presidency. To say the road is rough is an understatement. As his support grew... exploded, I thought how wonderful it must be for Ron to see so much support for that which he has held so near and dear to his heart for all these years. How great it is for him and Carol to see how many people appreciate the enormous sacrifices they made to do this for our country... for you... for me. And how great it is for him to see how many people truly love him for his integrity, his love and devotion to his country, and his honorable tenacity.
Along the way there were those who somehow expected everything to go perfectly. Never mind that the explosive growth of support forced the growth of the campaign from that of a small hot dog stand to one of a national chain in all 50 states - OVERNIGHT! No, every little bump in the road invoked a minority to claim incompetence and even intentional bungling. And now these fair-weather patriots feel the need to treat Ron Paul like a dog treats a fire plug. Well, Jesse has exercised his right to free speech and now so will I.
Thank you, Ron Paul. Thanks for the countless, selfless sacrifices you've made for our country over the decades. Thanks for having the backbone to, at 72 years of age, put yourself once more in the crosshairs of the Elite's propaganda gun. Thanks for waking up so many thousands of people to the truth about the usurpations of our Constitution and for showing them how this is destroying our country. Thanks for giving us "old patriots" a reason to hope once again. Thanks for fanning the embers of freedom and liberty that had all but expired. Thanks for inspiring a new batch of Constitutionist candidates who hopefully will soon join you on the Hill to fight your noble battle.
Jesse, instead of pointing at Ron Paul for failing to fix our country, why not look at yourself. Instead of ranting about his shortcomings, why not show us how it's done. Throw your hat into the ring and run for office. "Why don't you, Mr. USAF Vet Dan?", you may ask. Well, guess what. I am.
Ron Paul has inspired me to take a stab at running on the Libertarian ticket in Illinois' 14th District. If that rings a bell, it should. That is the seat vacated by Denny Hastert and just temporarily lost to Democrat Bill Foster via a special election. In the fall, Foster will face the loser of that special election - Republican multi-millionaire dairy tycoon Jim Oberweis. Oberweis, a neoconservative wannabe, has made a career out of running for office, losing a number of attempts at various offices seeming to range from dog catcher to position of Lord Voldemort.
Will we win? First we have the enormous challenge of collecting 10,000 valid petition signatures - 15,000 to be safe - in about three months. If we accomplish that, then who knows. Never say never but for those "Jesses" in my district, victory comes in many forms. Like Ron Paul's presidential candidacy, a stab at the 14th District's congressional seat will provide an opportunity to educate and wake up some more people. It will help the Libertarian Party to expand its ballot access. For those who wish not to waste their vote on the evils of two lessors, they'll now have a real choice. And maybe, just maybe, we can get Mr. Oberweis and Mr. Foster to participate in a debate. Holding socialist and neocon feet to the Constitutional fire would bring great joy to those who are sick of the status quo, to say the least.
So thank you, Ron Paul. I only wish there was more that I could do to show you how much I appreciate what you've done for us all. You deserve so much more than what some have opted to give you lately.
May God bless you, Sir.
Thanks, Ron Paul
