Honestly, this is probably going to seem narcissistic, but I have been sitting here for a couple of hours reading and catching up on Ron Paul stuff like I do just about every night.

My local state coordinator (not going to name drop) has been frustrated about the lack of participation locally. And I must admit, I am struggling to find the inner strength to do this again. Last time.....it hurt. More than a break up with someone you deeply love. It was just painful.

I decided to force myself to make a walk down memory lane, and while this video for most of you won't be as nostalgic as "Liberty", for me it helped give me perspective and has given me a new boost.

Below are three videos I created back in 2007 for a youtube video contest for Ron Paul.
They came in 4th....to some very good videos. I was lucky to be in the company of those folks.

I'm posting them because I want to help any of you who are still heartbroke about the last go-around. I want to help you find a way to dust yourself off, hold your head up high and give it another shot.

This time...the stakes are MUCH higher. Time is running out.

We always win. By spreading liberty and the message. We cannot lose. "Let it not be said that we did nothing." Now go do something! :D

I would never consider 2008 a lost. It introduced millions to the idea of liberty, and introduced me to the value of freedom. That to me is the greatest victory. The videos created by you and others helped on that road. THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!

Yeah, I woke up to the idea politicians can have principle, and really follow the Constitution, and if one can, why the hell aren't we demanding it of all of them? And other stuff, too, of course......and it was definitely the videos spurring me to my own research. What is spectacular about Ron doesn't 'come across' on an 'issues' page.

Great videos..I like the theme 'honesty.' When I get around to doing my own contribution, my title is going to be 'A Reminder.' Seems like many of us 'true believers' or whatever you want to call us...need more motivation. I've definitely lost my enthusiasm for the campaign but certainly not the message of liberty. I could go into a rant here but I won't. I like the positivity of the videos. I hope it helps many of us that have become disenchanted. I'll include the video clip that gets me motivated: http://youtu.be/u9sA5FQfE1E
