A lesson learned

Who is Ron Paul and why is he inspiring a generation?
I first heard about Ron Paul from my then seventeen year old son.
He was so excited by this guy running for President that I actually went in to his room and sat in front of his computer to look at what had him so energised about politics, politics?
















Ker-THUNK!
That was the sound made by the arrow shot right into my heart after reading that one! Do click on the link to read the full article. Ladies, just make sure you have Kleenex nearby and guys, just make sure no one is around to see even you tear up on this one, especially if you do have kids.
Anyone else know a man who is having this kind of impact on the minds and hearts of Americans in the last generation? I don't think Reagan even did...maybe JFK, though.
This is becoming less and less about simply "putting Ron in the White House" and more and more becoming putting Ron into the HEARTS of Americans!
Straight to the heart!
All I can say is wow! Great story. As a 40-year-old man I must say I feel responsible for letting down these young people. We have not done our job in keeping this government in check. We have all been out chasing the American dream. What is the American dream? We have been fooling ourselves. We keep thinking that our country is so great that nothing can go wrong there are checks and balances. I must be honest here and say I have been at this great American dream for years. The only problem is I was after the wrong dream. I was after money, thinking that money can make my family and I happy. I must admit That I have not found that dream. I have less money now than I had after my first year working. When I was a teenager my father always told me. "When you go out into this world you take with you a name. That name is givin to you by, your mother and I. We have worked hard to make it a good name. You take out of this house a good name. We expect you to bring it back in the same condition. I always thought he meant when I go out with my friends I should not do anything wrong. I worked very hard to make sure I never let them down. I'm happy to say I never let him down in this command. This article has made me think allot about this command of my fathers'. The part about 'when you go out into this world." He was not talking about when I go out with my friends as a teenager. He is talking about when I grow up and leave home. And the part about "bring it back home." Is talking about giving it to my children. My father is talking about the American dream. It’s not money. Its values! You can't buy these. Your children do not get values from schools. If they do then we have not passed anything on to our children. Parents have very little to say in the values taught in schools today. There are organizations that are like little think tanks (sound familiar) that tell the schools what to teach them. These organizations are usually federal and are in agreement with world government. They are passing their names down to our children folks. It’s there values that are being brought back home. I am so proud of all the young people that are not buying this name. They are right in the middle of this every day and they can see that their parents relay don't care about them. If they did their parents would stand up and fight for them. These organizations send psychiatrist into their schools as if they were lab rats. They are studying or children folk. Schools are for learning.

This is actually one of the worse abuses of our children and the American dream we face. We face many I assure you. When I was young psychiatry was not recognized by anyone and was frowned upon by every Dr. in the country. This is what was used in Germany to win the minds of youth all over their country to build a war machine. It is an effective way of building a belief or should I say a religion. I would like to say that "I am sorry" To the youth of American for my part of letting this happen and I will not continue in making this same mistake. I will stand behind you and back whoever it is you need me to back, to get these people out of your lives. So we can all have this sort of relationship with or children. You deserve a good name. Not ever parent deserves a good child, by some miracle it seems as if we have thousands upon thousands. We are a very blessed country.

And yes, that was a great and touching article. Most of us have not been paying attention while we have our freedom stolen, but it's ok to be unaware sometimes as we've gotten brainwashed from tv....we're only human. But what is not ok is to know it (which we now do) and to not do anything about it.
Revolution, we have a few months left to primaries. Time to double our efforts and show 'em who they're messin' with. The gig is up!
