Pics pics pics! :D

I don't have a camera

- The design is that cool one ya see everywhere of course
- back is a pic of Ron Paul and a quote by Bary Goldware Jr. about the book
- inside the little flap, it starts off "this much is true: you have been lied to"
- take the entire flap thing... cover... or whatever this is called off and it looks pretty cool too... maybe like a journal...has the cool old American feel to it

According to the LRC blog, Dr. Paul is doing a book signing in New York at the Wall Street Borders on April 28, so there's one that will have it in stock at least two days early. But may as well check your local store if you're passing by.

Dedication-like page thingy:

"To my supporters:

I have never been more humbled and honored than be your selfless devotion to freedom and the Constitution.

The American Revolution did the impossible. So can we. "

Contents:

"
Preface
1. The False Choices of American Politics
2. The Foreign Policy of the Founding Fathers
3. The Constitution
4. Economic Freedom
5. Civil Liberties and Personal Freedom
6. Money: The Forbidden Issue in American Politics
7. The Revolotuion
A Reading List for a Free and Prosperous America"

Back Cover -

Shows that pic we saw on his website a lot. You know, facing to the right, hand on his chin. He's wearing a black suit and a red tie. The picture is good quality.
Under it, the quote by Goldwater Jr: "The real truth about Liberty. This book takes a wrecking ball to the political establishment. Senator Goldwater would have loved it - it's The Conscience of a Conservative for the twenty-first century."


There... is that good? :D

Now read it to me with a James Earl Jones voice over and record it on a CD with one minute track lengths.

Thanks in advance.

Got mine yesterday, and stayed up late to finish reading it.

I kept thinking "Hey, that's what I've been saying" as I read the book. Guess that's why I gravitated towards Paul after hearing him speak only once: his ideas mesh with mine.

I'm not sure if it's a book that's easy to pick up for non-fans. Guess I'll have to wait and see.

I disagree completely: I, too, read it in one sitting, and found it such a refreshing example of common sense, of the sort no politician ever divulges, that it has a naturally attractive quality. By contrast, all other politicians seem empty and pathetic.

This book can change the world. No doubt in my mind.

There were 5 copies of the book at my local Barnes and Noble. Since the USPS couldn't get the book 10 miles from Philly to my mailbox in 2 days, I bought one.

You can go to www.bn.com to see if your local store has any in stock.
