Recommended Book for Noob Reader?

[0zzy]

So, I already read The Law. Great essay, pretty easy to understand (for the most part), and ya.

Now what should I read next?
I suck at reading, I don't read books. But I want to start, I don't want to be dumb. Most of my knowledge comes from the internets, so I guess I technically read (and watch documentaries), but I need to start reading books.

So, any good suggestions? Something easy to read, but very pro-Ron Paul?

the shadows of power by william perloff

stranger than fiction by albert d pastore

[American]

The Creature from Jekyll Island Edward Griffin

[kylejack]

Ayn Rand. Atlas Shrugged (fiction) is a good start. The Virtue of Selfishness is good non-fiction.

A Nation of Sheep!

What's the deal with the endorsements on the back? The book is entitled A Nation of Sheep and he has all the herders giving it an endorsement on the back cover :confused:

He also works for Fox News, awkward ay?
Ron Paul is reading his book atm though.
Maybe if I read it, i'll feel like I'm reading it with Paul.
And ill be that much closer to Paul.
just like when I look at the moon and wonder if he is looking at it too.
...
IM NOT OBSESSED!

i heard his interview about this on the Alan colmes show, publishers put reviews from the book Constitution in Crisis on there, but I know Alan has now read it, the others they probably think he doesn't have a clue even though he is the educated and tenured judge!

seriously it is a great book........all the corporate media needs to read it and open their blind eyes! oh wait, they part of the blinders.

it is not a long book, and it brings it down to an easy non legalese level for the average high school level IMO(make that post grad in today's education)

If you want to learn about Ron Paul's economics, here is a great book which someone posted here earlier.

http://www.mises.org/books/econforrealpeople.pdf

I printed it out and I'm reading it bit by bit, I recommend it for everyone

[Tidewise]

The Creature from Jekyll Island Edward Griffin

My first suggestion as well. Not light reading, but very much worth the effort.

That would be my vote! :)

I'm watching Napolitano on CSPAN right now, makes me really want to buy the book. Talks about more current issues and laws and what nots.

[Richandler]

I would recomend to everyone join the Ron Paul cause to check out the Ludwivg von Mises Institute and all the information they proved. I've only recently discovere the institute through lewrockwell.com and have found an abundance of information about liberty and the cause to re-educate the United States and the world that these ideas work and are, most likely, the best way for society to function. Browse around the site for a day, read, listen, or purchase something that can further your learning in the cause of liberty because getting Ron Paul elected alone will no instantly bring us our full liberty back. We must be educated and most point others to education or training in the ideas of liberty for our cause to truly succed.

[Tidewise]

Actually, I have put everything on Bradley in DC's signature on my reading list!

I agree. The Mises Institute's Media section is great. Check out the audio books and interviews/speeches and what not. (All free of course.) It's a good resource.

This is a good Flash animation for natural rights if you come across someone who you can't get to read Bastiat or others.

I thought the same thing:confused: but then I thought maybe it was a good thing... the poeple who listen to Hannity and the others need to read the book and hopefully realize that giving up a few liberties here and there for the sake of safety is not what it means to be FREE!!!

[Mandrik]

Blowback will make you stand up and scream, "W-T-F?!" Seriously, it's a must read.
