This Veteran's Day take a moment to think about everyone who is serving, and those that did serve, in our military. Many of them have given their blood, sweat, tears, and in too many cases their lives. I'm not asking for any of those from you, all I am asking for is five minutes of your time and for you to think about what you will read.

The war in Iraq has not gone well, along with the fight to pass domestic legislation. With all the talk of change, nothing is changing. Congress and the president failed to pass social security reform, failed to pass immigration reform, failed to pass health care reform, and failed to protect our civil liberties and human rights record, be it domestic spying or torture. Presidential and congressional approval ratings are at or near all time lows. 34% approval rating for the president, and 20% approval rating for congress. We need someone who not only realizes our mistakes in Iraq and with our country, but someone who got it right the first time. That man is Ron Paul. The only republican presidential candidate that voted against the war, against the patriot act, and against the military commissions act.

Ron Paul has been right a lot.

Voted against the Iraq war When 70% of Congress passed it.

Voted against the Patriot Act. When 85% of Congress passed it.
Voted against reauthorizing the Patriot Act. When 70% of Congress passed it.
Voted against the Military Commissions Act. When 60% of Congress passed it.

Edwards voted for the patriot Act and Iraq War.
Clinton Voted for the patriot act, reauthorizing the patriot act, and the Iraq War.
Mccain voted for the patriot Act, reauthorizing the patriot act, the military commissions act, and the Iraq War.

We need a change. Ron Paul is a different candidate, that gets thing right the first time. As many people saw on November 5th. He is no longer a "fringe" candidate. He raised over 4 million dollars in one day. Setting the record for the most online fundraising in a single day, and also the most money raised by a republican in one day for the primaries.

If after reading this you are ready to do your part to make history. Go here and pledge to donate 100 dollars on this Veteran's Day. We are trying to raise at least another 1 million dollars. If you don't have money there are plenty of other ways to show your support for Ron Paul.
