This is really unbelievable. It's almost as though he had seen the future. He went into so much detail (which was an unnecessary risk if he was just looking to make a point back then). The charlatans speak in generalities, and speak of "terror" and of "attack."
These are specific, verifiable items and they ALL came true. Just wild.

When showing skeptical people this video they might claim that the video is fake and that Ron Paul never said these things and that the audio must be dubbed etc.
Point them to www.thomas.loc.gov then click on "congressional record" in the far left column of the page. Then click on the 107th congress in the top of the search menu, then find Ron Paul's name in the list of members of Congress (its the left hand side list), then unclick everything but "House" in the list of checked boxes, then limit your search to 04/24/2002 to 04/24/2002, then press the search button.
The search results will show House of Representatives record, the one you want to click on is the one entitled "predictions".
This will bring up the verbatim text of Ron Paul's prediction speech that is in the video made the subject of this thread.
Be aware that you can't link to the text because the link is a temporary link that will stop working if you forward it to anyone, so you must download the speech in PDF, kinda lame..

Here is a form email to send to all of your contacts..
This video was made on the House floor back in 2002 of Ron Paul giving a speech to his fellow House members. The speech details Ron Paul's predictions for the US. What is so compelling about this video is that ALL of his predictions have come true and some of his predictions are yet to come. By far this is the best video I have ever seen. Please forward to all of your friends, family, etc. I don't know how Ron Paul is able to accurately predict all of this, I am amazed that he was so accurate back in 2002 about what is happening today. Trust me you want to see this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifJG_oFFDK0&feature=player_embedded
It has come to my attention that others may dispute that Ron Paul actually stated these predictions in 2002 on the House floor. If anyone doubts the veracity of the video alleging that Ron Paul either never said these things, or didn't say them on April 24, 2002 then please read the congressional record of his speech which sets out verbatim every word in the video. The full text can be found at the following link on the Library of Congress's website entitled "Predictions". http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?r107:H24AP2-0031:/

The Moral Promise of Freedom
by Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX)
The moral promise of a free society involves the boundaries of private property. The promise is this: property boundaries cannot be legally invaded or trampled upon. When property is protected, people can keep the fruits of their labor and investment, and not have them plundered by others. People can own land, for example, and this land can be used as the owners see fit. Private property allows wide latitude for experimentation. Property holders can form communities with internal cultures. Just as business can conduct its own affairs, people can separate themselves out entirely from the rest of society if they so desire. They need only respect the rights of others to do the same.
It's the nature of private property and a free society that it allows room for diversity of work, modes of production, and ways of life. That's how Mr. Jefferson wanted it, and that's what the authors of the Constitution promised. In the sixties, for example, hippie communes sprang up all over the country. The participants were eccentric and the utopias didn't work, but the attempts were tolerated by society and state.
Today the promise of private property is routinely violated by both private criminals and government. The attack on property began subtly at first, but today it has become explicit, sometimes brutal, and sometimes even deadly.
The community of faith that once lived at Mount Carmel in Waco, Texas, believed the promise of free society. They chose to separate themselves from society, as so many others have done in our nation's history. This was not allowed in Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany, or Maoist China. That's one reason we regard these regimes as tyrannical.
Yet in its dealings with the Waco religious dissenters, the central government revealed that it has become intractably opposed to any individual or group that represents a challenge to its singular authority. To counter this challenge, the central government resorted to tactics that resulted in the death of 86 men, women, and children. As for the survivors, the government has put them on trial.
This sort of brutality is inevitable in a system of absolute and centralized power. A government that invades private business by demanding confiscatory taxes, imposes unbearable regulations, and rules over business culture through pervasive labor controls, builds an appetite for even more power. As the power builds, so does the extent of corruption at the top and the disinformation that covers up the truth about its tyranny.
So it was in Waco, where the tragic events combined all the elements of a government out of control. Most of what the public thinks it knows about David Koresh, the group's spiritual leader, is false. But as with war, military invasions, and other acts of state – as J.S. Griffey of the University of Houston argued in an outstanding article in the Southern Partisan – the first impression is the one that lasts.
For example, most people probably believe that the government attacked the Waco Christians because they were "stockpiling" weapons. Were they? Texans own 60 million firearms, about 3.5 per person. At Mt. Carmel there were two firearms per person, most of them locked away. The rest of their protection consisted of hay bales and plywood.
The stockpiling accusation was an act of projection, for the real stockpiler was the government. In the attack on Waco, agents used MI 13 personnel carriers, M2AO Bradley fighting vehicles, Sikorsky Blackhawks, Apache and UH-1 Bell helicopters, Abrams MI tanks, 7.62mm machine guns, FBI SWAT snipers, two varieties of hand grenades, and the FBI's psychological warfare experts. The government even fired canisters of CS gas, banned in warfare by international treaty, through windows and walls.
The BATF got their helicopters from the Texas National Guard. Under the law, the military cannot be involved in domestic law enforcement. But a special provision of the U.S. Code allows the government to use military equipment in drug cases. So the BATF told Texas governor Ann Richards that they suspected Mount Carmel had a drug lab. This canard was not in the BATF's search warrants and it hasn't been mentioned since.
Did Koresh want a confrontation with law enforcement agents? All evidence indicates he desired good relations with the law. In 1992, Koresh had actually invited the BATF into the compound so agents could see for themselves. But the government reneged. "Why do you all have to be so big all the time?" Koresh asked the FBI during the month-long standoff. "Why didn't you just talk to me?"
Did the community have a death wish? Twenty minutes before the fire began, the community hung out a sign reading: "We want our phones fixed." (The government had cut them off, along with the electricity.) That's not a message sent by people hungering for the Apocalypse. None of the survivors report discussion of suicide plans.
There is still no evidence that the religious people set the fire that destroyed their building. The place was a firetrap, entirely made of wood and sealed shut. Since the government had cut off their electricity, lanterns were their only light. The government shot out the windows, so sheets were their only protection from the weather. The tanks that battered the building probably set the fire, either accidentally or deliberately.
The initial raid was on February 28, 1993. Several people say the government shot through the roof from a helicopter, but we cannot know for sure. The physical evidence is reduced to ashes, and the government plowed the land over a week after the home went up in flames.
As the standoff continued, the women and children were upstairs because they were afraid of the government. The tanks destroyed the stairways that would have allowed them to escape the fire. The underground shelter was destroyed as well.
After the fire, the FBI made three claims it later retracted. First, the Bureau said that two agents saw community members lighting a fire. Second, the Bureau said one agent saw someone dressed in black "cupping his hands," as if to light a fire. Third, the Bureau said some members trying to flee the fire were shot by others. All assertions were false and were subsequently dropped.
The Justice Department contributed its share of lies. Spokesmen said an "independent arson investigator" concluded that members of the community started the fire. But the "independent investigator" turned out to be Paul Gray, an agent for the BATF from 1962 to 1990 whose wife stills works for the agency as secretary to the man who planned the raid. They apparently could not be sure a genuinely independent investigator would come to the preordained conclusion.
The stated purpose of the raid was to save children from abuse. Yet Janet Reno lied about that too. The information she used was already discredited, and she later admitted it. The real child abuse was committed by the government: to harass community members, the FBI turned on massive floodlights at night and played recordings of Buddhist chants, dental drills, and screaming, slaughtered rabbits. Reno herself ordered the house to be saturated with CS gas, knowing that the community's gas masks couldn't fit the children.
In ways that have become typical, the media and government worked together in this disaster. One day before the raid, the Waco Tribune-Herald started a series on "The Sinful Messiah." On the morning of February 28, 1993, before BATF arrived at Mt. Carmel, at least 11 reporters were on the scene already. After the religious community was torched, the entire media participated in the beatification of Janet Reno for her actions in Waco.
The consequences for the victims were public humiliation and death. There were zero consequences for the perpetrators, unless we consider the three agents who were suspended with pay and perks, which is no punishment at all.
The methods and strategies of the government's assault against Waco had been used for years by the military, but against foreign governments and their leaders, not against the domestic citizenry. The most familiar case of foreign intrigue was the government's attack on Manuel Noriega, in which it used similar tactics (blaring music, planting evidence, spreading disinformation), and therein lies the connection between foreign policy and domestic. Anything a government allows itself to do to foreign countries will eventually be done at home. That's one reason George Washington warned us against foreign entanglements.
We may never know the full truth about Waco or the extent of government perfidy, but we can draw lessons from the experience. This particular event was a fiasco, but it also tells something about what our government has become: "the organizer-in-chief of society," as Bertrand de Jouvenel said, which is "making its monopoly of this role ever more complete." It is a parasite and a monster that acts to protect itself. Mises was right: government's nature is coercive. It is "beating, killing, hanging." Coercion is necessary in society to protect the rights of property holders against those who do not respect property. But when government itself become the source of arbitrary violence, we have tyranny. That's why unchecked power should never be invested in a centralized government, even one with a democratic mandate. This power will invariably be exercised at the expense of peaceful social relations.
In its dealings with the community of believers at Mount Carmel, the central government abandoned the moral promise of a free society, and, as all tyrannies eventually do, ignored its own standards of law and ethics. But it paid the price of losing some measure of public confidence, which is already at historic lows. A government that governs by fear alone eventually finds itself unable to govern at all.
Dr. Ron Paul is a Republican member of Congress from Texas.

Wow! It looks like the maker may have used my post from Dec. 24th (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?341830-Ron-Paul-s-a-prophet-his-daring-2002-Prediction-list-came-true) as partial inspiration. I'm reposting it here in case anyone wants the news story links that were used in the video, they seem to be mostly the ones I chose when I composed the original post.
My Dec 24th post:
I was reading some old Ron Paul articles, and came across one from April 2002 called "Predictions".
These predictions were made at a time when most of them probably seemed fairly unlikely according to the conventional wisdom of the time. Turns out they've almost all come true, and the others might be around the corner. I went through and did a little fact-checking on each one that might even be considered debatable and added some support for what I found.
Predictions (http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul29.html)
by Congressman Ron Paul, MD
April 26, 2002
Our government intervention in the economy and in the private affairs of citizens, and the internal affairs of foreign countries, leads to uncertainty and many unintended consequences. Here are some of the consequences about which we should be concerned.
I predict U.S. taxpayers will pay to rebuild Palestine, both the West Bank and the Gaza, as well as Afghanistan. U.S. taxpayers paid to bomb these areas, so we will be expected to rebuild them. TRUE (http://endtheoccupation.org/article.php?id=3122)
Peace, of sorts, will come to the Middle East, but will be short-lived. There will be big promises of more U.S. money and weapons flowing to Israel and to Arab countries allied with the United States. TRUE
U.S. troops and others will be used to monitor the "peace." YET TO BE, BUT PLAUSIBLE (http://www.usmep.us/usmep/2010/05/01/peacekeeping-in-palestine/)
To garner the support of both of the key parties, therefore, it is more likely that the military component of any such international mission would need to be organized as a U.S.-led “coalition of the willing” or, perhaps more likely, by the NATO Alliance.
A plausible construct would thus be a NATO-led military component with a civilian-led parallel organization to handle political, governance and development matters.
In time, an oil boycott will be imposed, with oil prices soaring to historic highs. DEVELOPING (http://www.businessweek.com/news/2011-12-23/u-s-joins-eu-push-to-embargo-iran-oil-over-nuclear-effort.html)
The Obama administration and European governments are seeking help from Arab and Asian allies to reduce Iran’s oil revenue in the dispute over its nuclear program, while trying to avoid causing a surge in prices that may threaten the global economic recovery.
The most wide-ranging effort to date to target Iranian income, the strategy includes a push by France and Britain for an embargo as soon as next month on imports of Iranian oil by the 27 European Union countries.
Current Israeli-United States policies will solidify Arab Muslim nations in their efforts to avenge the humiliation of the Palestinians. That will include those Muslim nations that in the past have fought against each other. TRUE? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_Freedom_Flotilla)
In this flotilla, over 600 activists were on board the Mavi Marmara alone. There were 663 passengers from 37 nations on board the flotilla.
Some of our moderate Arab allies will be overthrown by Islamic fundamentalists. TRUE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_spring)
The U.N. will continue to condemn, through resolutions, Israeli-U.S. policies in the Middle East, and they will be ignored. TRUE (http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/feb/19/us-veto-israel-settlement)
The Obama administration wielded its first veto at the UN security council last night in a move to swipe down a resolution condemning Israeli settlements in Palestinian territory.
The US stood alone among the 15 members of the security council in failing to condemn the resumption of settlement building that has caused a serious rift between the Israeli government and the Palestinian authority and derailed attempts to kick-start the peace process.
Some European countries will clandestinely support the Muslim countries and their anti-Israel pursuits. TRUE (http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/news/secret-eu-paper-aims-to-tackle-israel-s-treatment-of-arab-minority-1.401678)
The European Union should consider Israel's treatment of its Arab population a "core issue, not second tier to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict," according to a classified working paper produced by European embassies in Israel, parts of which were obtained by Haaretz.
China, ironically assisted by American aid, much more openly will sell to militant Muslims the weapons they want, and will align herself with the Arab nations. TRUE (http://www.china-defense-mashup.com/china-arab-friendship-cooperation-to-continue-chinese-mideast-envoy.html)
2011-08-29 (China Military News cited from Xinhua) -- The friendship and cooperation relations between China and the Arab world have the foundation and potential for further development in the long run despite temporary impact of the region's ongoing unrest, said Chinese special envoy to the Middle East Wu Sike here on Sunday.
The United States, with Tony Blair as head cheerleader, will attack Iraq without proper authority, and a major war, the largest since World War II, will result. TRUE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_War)
Major moves will be made by China, India, Russia, and Pakistan in Central Asia to take advantage of the chaos for the purpose of grabbing land, resources, and strategic advantages sought after for years. TRUE (http://news.yahoo.com/analysis-china-seeks-profit-shuns-politics-afghanistan-120821129.html)
But the rich mineral reserves lying untapped in Afghanistan after decades of war are a tempting and potentially lucrative lure for resource-hungry China, whose companies have already shown an ability to operate profitably in hostile environments.
The Karzai government will fail, and U.S. military presence will end in Afghanistan. YET TO BE (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-south-asia-15213999)
President Hamid Karzai has said his government and Nato have failed to provide Afghans with security, 10 years after the Taliban were overthrown.
Speaking to the BBC, Mr Karzai also accused Pakistan of supporting the insurgency, saying sanctuaries there still needed to be tackled.
He vowed to step down in 2014 and said he was working on the succession.
His comments come as the ex-commander of coalition forces said Nato allies remain far from reaching their goals.
After a decade of fighting in Afghanistan, retired Army General Stanley McChrystal estimated that the coalition was "a little better than" half way to achieving its military ambitions, adding that the US began the war with a "frighteningly simplistic" view.
An international dollar crisis will dramatically boost interest rates in the United States. DEBATABLE (http://fpc.state.gov/documents/organization/99488.pdf)
The dollar’s value in international exchange has been falling since early 2002.Over this five year span, the currency, on a real trade weighted basis, is down about 29%. For most of this time the dollar’s fall was moderately paced at about 3.0% to 4.0% annually. Recently, however, the slide has accelerated, falling nearly 10% between January and December of 2007. An acceleration of the depreciation brings the periodic concern of an impending dollar crisis to the fore. There is no precise demarcation of when a falling dollar moves from being an orderly decline to being a crisis. Most likely it would be a situation where the dollar falls, perhaps 15% to 20% annually for several years, and sends a significant negative shock to the U.S. and the global economies. This crisis may not be an inevitable outcome, but one that likely presents considerable risk to the economy.
Price inflation, with a major economic downturn, will decimate U.S. Federal Government finances, with exploding deficits and uncontrolled spending. TRUE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Late-2000s_financial_crisis)
Federal Reserve policy will continue at an expanding rate, with massive credit expansion, which will make the dollar crisis worse. Gold will be seen as an alternative to paper money as it returns to its historic role as money. TRUE (http://sanders.senate.gov/newsroom/news/?id=9e2a4ea8-6e73-4be2-a753-62060dcbb3c3)
The first top-to-bottom audit of the Federal Reserve uncovered eye-popping new details about how the U.S. provided a whopping $16 trillion in secret loans to bail out American and foreign banks and businesses during the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression.
Erosion of civil liberties here at home will continue as our government responds to political fear in dealing with the terrorist threat by making generous use of the powers obtained with the Patriot Act. TRUE (http://politics.salon.com/2011/12/16/three_myths_about_the_detention_bill/singleton/)
...this bill codifies the power of indefinite detention. It expressly empowers the President — with regard to anyone accused of the acts in section (b) – to detain them “without trial until the end of the hostilities.”
The draft will be reinstated, causing domestic turmoil and resentment. FALSE
Many American military personnel and civilians will be killed in the coming conflict. TRUE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_military_casualties_of_war)
War on Terror: Afghanistan and Iraq Wars total 2001–present
Dead: 6,580/Wounded: 41,936/Missing: 3
The leaders of whichever side loses the war will be hauled into and tried before the International Criminal Court for war crimes. The United States will not officially lose the war, but neither will we win. Our military and political leaders will not be tried by the International Criminal Court. TRUE (http://www.politicususa.com/en/dick-cheney-war-criminal)
Cheney should be afraid of being tried as a war criminal. Last year a complaint was filed in International Criminal Court (I.C.C.) against George W. Bush, Richard Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, George Tenet, Condi Rice, and Alberto Gonzales over the practice of extraordinary rendition. The complaint requested an investigation into the above mentioned Bush administration officials.
The reason why the Obama administration won’t prosecute the previous administration for war crimes is that it would be an expansion of executive power that would set a dangerous precedent. If Obama prosecutes Bush, then a future president would also have the power carry out the same kinds of prosecutions against previous administrations.
The Congress and the President will shift radically toward expanding the size and scope of the Federal Government. This will satisfy both the liberals and the conservatives.TRUE (http://articles.businessinsider.com/2011-07-11/news/29984054_1_federal-president-obama-debt)
As you can see, from 2000 to 2008, under President Bush, Federal spending rose by $1.3 trillion, from $1.9 trillion a year to $3.2 trillion a year.
From 2009 to 2011, meanwhile, under President Obama, federal spending has risen by $600 billion, from $3.2 trillion a year to $3.8 trillion a year.
Military and police powers will grow, satisfying the conservatives. The welfare state, both domestic and international, will expand, satisfying the liberals. Both sides will endorse military adventurism overseas.TRUE
This is the most important of my predictions: Policy changes could prevent all of the previous predictions from occurring. Unfortunately, that will not occur. In due course, the Constitution will continue to be steadily undermined and the American Republic further weakened.TRUE
During the next decade, the American people will become poorer and less free, while they become more dependent on the government for economic security.TRUE
The war will prove to be divisive, with emotions and hatred growing between the various factions and special interests that drive our policies in the Middle East.TRUE
Agitation from more class warfare will succeed in dividing us domestically, and believe it or not, I expect lobbyists will thrive more than ever during the dangerous period of chaos.TRUE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupy_Wall_Street)
By their slogan We are the 99%, the protesters claim that the growing income and wealth inequality in the United States between the wealthiest 1% and the remaining 99% of the population is unfair. Specifically the protesters are against social and economic inequality, high unemployment, greed, corruption, and allege that many large corporations—particularly from the financial services sector—have gone unpunished for gross fraud, are parasitic and have undue influence on government. Following the Zuccotti Park protest, other similar protests and movements ensued around the United States and the world.
I have no timetable for these predictions, but just in case, keep them around and look at them in 5 to 10 years. Let us hope and pray that I am wrong on all accounts. If so, I will be very pleased.

Ron Paul's a prophet. For him to see all this coming in 2002 is pretty amazing, even his detractors should give some props. It's hard to even appreciate from our perspective how much most of these went against the conventional wisdom and expectations of the time he wrote them, and he was dead on about almost everything.

Great video, maybe those people need to be "offended" a bit.
NO, these people are military, many who have seen combat, including many very close ideological allies that we DON'T want to push away.
I have been told that if you have not seen the horrors of war, it's really hard to even describe or quantify the impact of that image.

I think the media will go nuts if we actually do with this something that no politician has ever done, buy a slot for the entire 5 minutes during the next debate and film this (obviously the campaign will have to work on this a bit too). Maybe not too many people will see it during the debate, but the media will go so crazy afterwards, that everyone will have to see it eventually.

Perhaps create a fake controversy around it, something that the media will cling to. The media likes new and special stuff.

Damn it what do people not understand about the casket image being extremely offensive to some people.
One of the most brilliant RP videos I have seen, but there is absolutely no way I can put that on facebook.
As a vet i feel that i can address this. It is a DISGRACE that every single casket that comes back is not on national tv. If people want to send me and my friends off to die but can't handle seeing a casket then they need to STFU and go away. Its not extremely offensive.. only those that do not want to face the reality's of war find that offensive. Its this whitewashing of war that has got us into so much trouble in the last 30 years.

Tell em pal. I come from a military family and a flag draped coffin is not something the soldiers family wants hidden. That is the families last symbol of the ultimate sacrifice for the country's public and it is only right that they should be made aware of this sacrifice..for many good reasons. I suspect the motive to hide them is to hide the actual death and destruction that policies have wrought.

Agreed that these wouldn't be hard to see if you have an actual understanding of the world, but the thing is most people do not.

Think of how far we can make this seen, especially with the media showing clips of it and reporting Ron Paul supporters put money together for a 5 minute commercial!!! So what do you think? - Is it something we can do? If so, let's get serious and sticky a thread for it! Let's do it - in due time!

The only problem realistically is the copyrighted audio, which obviously can be changed to something else. I thought "Time" by Hans Zimmer had the greatest chill effect, but I'm up for other royalty-free music suggestions. The news articles and clips constitute fair use, but the cartoon probably does not. I've also had suggestions to change the 'Emergency Bailout' picture to something else like a news article that shows how more Americans than ever rely on food stamps.

First I want to say thank you so much for taking the time to make this awesome and powerful video. I've been sharing it all over the place!
I have a question though... I know that YouTube only gives you 3 choices for thumbnails, but is there maybe a better one you can select? I posted the video on facebook, but for my friends who may not be that into politics, I don't know if the uncle sam cartoon thumbnail image was interesting enough for them to click on it. I don't mean to sound nitpicky, just asking. Thank you again! :)

It's hard to say without seeing them, but the full-screen shot of RP (as long as it's not blurry or a terrible shot) sounds like it would be the best of the 3 you have to choose from. :) Maybe you could try that one for a while, at least.

I changed it to Ron Paul, and it appears it has updated. Please see this link - my video is at the top. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Ron+Paul+-+Predictions+in+Due+Time+&oq=Ron+Paul+-+Predictions+in+Due+Time+&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=s&gs_upl=8549l8549l0l8974l1l1l0l0l0l0l140l140l0.1l1l 0
The guy below me re-posted and unfortunately grabbed more views but at least he gave me credit in his description.

I think we should start a Facebook ad campaign to promote the video.

Maybe. The fact is young people use the internet and Ron Paul already has their vote. Realistically, you have to change the 50+ year old minds. It has to be aired around the time of their idol - Mr. O'reilly. Or just on Fox News in general.

Thanks for coming on the thread and sharing your other videos, hopefully we can get the campaign or the PAC to get your content into an ad.

Are we all bumping just incase someone hadn't seen it?
Because this is one of the first videos that converted me, which is why it's good to spread, but its hard to believe so many 07'ers haven't seen it.

It isn't the 07'ers we are bumping it for but the about 20,000 people per day who come here who are not members and may not have seen it yet.

First I want to say thank you so much for taking the time to make this awesome and powerful video. I've been sharing it all over the place!
I have a question though... I know that YouTube only gives you 3 choices for thumbnails, but is there maybe a better one you can select? I posted the video on facebook, but for my friends who may not be that into politics, I don't know if the uncle sam cartoon thumbnail image was interesting enough for them to click on it. I don't mean to sound nitpicky, just asking. Thank you again! :)
You are allowed to upload any thumbnail you want. That button option is right below the 3 default choices, with the description Upload Thumbnail.

I just sent the video in an email. I wanted to include the transcripts, but the link is not working. Is there another?
