Do Not Buy Into the Illusions Being Presented To You
Submitted by bobspirit on Sat, 01/21/2012 - 23:02Stay focused on the obvious truths. Gingrich is not on the ballot in several states. He cannot win. Santorum is not on the ballot in several states, has no money and cannot win. America is NEVER going to elect a Mormon, never mind a flip-flopping you're just jealous 1%er like Romney. He cannot win.
Yes, these results are theatre. Do not believe them. Believe instead in the message of liberty, in America, and in each other. Believe in the astounding courage and resolve of our candidate.
The world and our country is run by a very, very small group of people, and they are acutely aware of certain realities; like how they cannot rule 300 million people who will not let them.
Most importantly, they know it is people's belief systems that must be manipulated and controlled for them to win. These results are DESIGNED to destroy your current energy and faith and replace it with the belief you cannot win.
As you believe, so shall it be done.
As the field narrows the only play they have, ignoring us, gets weaker and weaker. Dr. Paul is also learning as he goes. Soon he will turn to face the single isssue upon which this election will turn, which by the way is not defense/national security.
The real issue is the fear we Americans have been brainwashed with. Fear is the issue. Fear is the only card they have left to play, and when Dr. Paul turns to face it, he will smack it down for good, and the masses will turn to embrace him.
Every one of us was born into a system of modern feudalistic debt slavery, ushered into existence in 1913. We are now sharing the experience of watching it's death throes. Can't you feel it?
Hold on to your own personal vision of what it will be like to live in a truly free country where half of everything you make isn't taken from you before you ever see it.
Hold onto your vision with clenched fists and let your belief grow FIERCE. The momentum is going to shift our way in Nevada.
Believe it.
Americans have been brainwashed by television
To accept what they are told at face value, to crave entertainment, and to fear terrorists.
We who know better must not waver, get discouraged, or give in to fear.

Thanks Bobspirit!

Gingrich is thoroughly unelectable.
Gingrich has no chance of beating Obama if nominated, and little chance of winning the nomination.
It's even possible that his win in SC may benefit Dr. Paul down the road, as it will break up Romney's "inevitability." The GOP field is confused now.
I do worry about "momentum," especially considering the way the media reviles Ron Paul. But longterm, Gingrich is toast.
SUPPORT OUR FOUNDERS' AMERICA
Support the Constitution of the United States
"As you believe, so shall it be done."
That statement is exactly and perfectly correct! Thank you for this positive, timely post. Brings to mind the similar words of Henry Ford who said, "Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're right."
It's all about the fight for mind control. Fear begets apathy and individual paralysis.
It's high-time for some mental enemas, folks. Replace every negative thought, word and action with a "rescue vision" of the thing you really want.
My favorite is Ron Paul raising his hand to take the oath of office as POTUS. Works for me!

Vertigo – Teetering on No-Ledge
“Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.”
― Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being
http://www.dailypaul.com/186827/what-republicans-have-not-wa...
“It was vertigo. A heady, insuperable longing to fall. We might also call vertigo the intoxication of the weak. Aware of his weakness, a man decides to give in rather than stand up to it. He is drunk with weakness, wishes to grow even weaker, wishes to fall down in the middle of the main square in front of everybody, wishes to be down, lower than down."
-Milan Kundera, ‘The Unbearable Lightness of Being’

OH I CAN FEEL IT!
The Hegelian Dialectic is growing more and more inneffectual as the people of the world go through a transformation, an awakening, prophesied by the very social engineering power elite who have hoped to manage the transcendence of the collective consciousness for their aims. They overestimated their ability (megalomaniacal psychos), and underestimated the power LOVE and FREEDOM and the group multiplier effect we're observing these days as more and more fence-riders, moderates, independents, apathetics, oppressed, and white collar crime victims join the ♥ Я Ξ √ Ω L U T ↑ ☼ N :)

"Ron Paul has it right: the American experience is of personal liberty, and he is the only candidate making that the philosophical first principle of his bid for the presidency.
But the real message Ron Paul is sending is, in my opinion, even deeper, and that message is that his message is not going to go away in the long run, no matter what repressions are put into place to do so."

The powers that be want Obama
That's why republicans find themselves with 3 flawed candidates, and one revolutionary. The decision has been made, and the republican primary is theater for the slaves.
I agree with everything you say, but I'm not sure the change can come this election. Old slaves don't often run away. But, if the young ones get close enough this time, get a taste of liberty, they might run again in the future. They might think that it just may be possible.
One other great thing that can come from this is a huge network of liberty minded people. There are more ways than elections to resists our owners. We can create our own markets, news, music literature, entertainment and more.
What ever happens with the votes this time, we win, if for no other reason than going up against status quo, and living like free people again.
Fear is the mind killer
I've seen it in a sig line here on the DP. Fear is the mind killer.
Very eloquent post, bobspirit. Thank you.
I hope this goes far and wide!
This message is essential for Ron Paul supporters. I couldn't have said it better myself. It's all belief, and everything they've done over the past few weeks has been to make us believe we can't win. We can't buy into that illusion. Please put this on the front page, and spread this message far and wide.
VERY IMPORTANT
Author, while many RP supporters here are largely aware of this, what they likely aren't aware of is our vassal states, mainly the EU, passing similar, the same or worse draconian legislation with our names on it even (think ACTA in Poland) and getting away with it rather easily because the EU is the worst bureaucratic disaster in human history, hands down, and no one, often not even the parliamentarians there, know exactly what's going on or how things work (their words, not mine).
Keep your eyes on Europe, guys. Just as important, if we could get all of the visitors to DailyPaul to actively sign petitions (wouldn't take more than 5-10 minutes a day) on sites such as:
Opencongress.org, popvox.com (which is better), votewatch.eu and spread awareness of this stuff through social media and sites like 4chan.org, we can put this country back on the right course more quickly.
"It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds."

The Ghost of Alvin Greene lives in S Carolina.
Besides, the majority being morans who continue to elect 'Gomer Pyle' aka Linsay Graham, who along with his buddy McShame are probably working to create the first FEMA detention state, with most being too ignorant to realize it. The voting system in S Carolina is a complete sham, as it's the same system that nominated Alvin Greene, a jobless, unknown, illiterate man, who did no campaigning, not campaign staff, or even a website. http://www.bradblog.com/?p=9079
The set up false surges in Iowa and NH to steal votes from Paul, and staged the debates for Gingrich to play on the Faux News left vs right crowd, to stage a surge, and with these machines they could easily screw Dr Paul. The exit polls are done by the MSM, and they are no friends to Paul.
It's time to turn up the heat in what ever way we can, by showing the media brainwashed fools, the records of these other clowns proove they are not going to make changes. We have to go on the enemy blogs, post infomation and/or videos exposing these shills. When doing this we should not push Dr Paul on them, just state how another candidate has the record to save America from economic collapse and protect America's homeland and the liberties of it's citizens.
Thanks bobspirit
Very Uplifting.

“I have joined your revolution and I’m proud to be part of what you want to do.” - Ron Paul
Awesome post. Big tip for keeping spirits up...?
Just TURN THEM OFF!
FOX, MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS ...
Get all of your news online (from sites that are not theirs)
Anything relevant to the campaign .. any vid segments .. or the latest he/said she/said pundit gossip and dirty tricks will be posted somewhere online anyway.
Take away their ratings, and their power to affect you
Keep your own spirits up. Stay focused on the goal.
Easy:
STOP
WATCHING
Recognize all our victories!
Consider for example, with Rachel Maddow demanding recognition that we have become a force to be reckoned with and that we are not going away, that makes four liberal icons of the internet generation, that Ron Paul has single-handedly converted from “enemies of the right” to followers of the Truth (Dr. Paul’s most lethal weapon).
1. Jon Stewart
2. Steve Colbert
3. Bill Maher
4. Rachel Maddow
These people have enormous power in raising awareness to ‘injustice’ (their favorite word) as well as shaping public opinion.
When we place all our hope into over rated physical battles like the polls, the primaries, media coverage, and even the election, we risk capitulating to our enemies when we lose one of these predetermined battlefields, like the SC primary last night.
Defeat by capitulation is the most lethal weapon of our enemies and their minions like O'Donnell’.
Put another way, we strengthen our resolve to move forward when we give recognition to what we have achieved at all levels of our journey, not just the things the media and their corporate bosses have decided we should consider as important for success.
-------------------------------------------------------
'Capitulation' in politics is when supporters give up some or all previous gains in favor of another candidate who is less likely to lose or to just disengage politically altogether.

no more fear!
fantastic post - thanks!
That's why I think it's important to avoid "fear-mongering" to get others to support RP.
RP does not do that.
He gives information, gives precautions, discusses history... he doesn't do that in a way to make people afraid, but rather to educate & wake people up - EMPOWERING people to make a change.
We should spread RP's message of HOPE... NOT FEAR.
Working for US policy in the mideast that serves AMERICA's interests http://www.councilforthenationalinterest.org/
Reminds me of Maslow's hierarchy theory,
where human motivational needs are ordered by precedence. The foundational need is physiological - we need food, water and oxygen etc. to support life. With basic needs satisfied, the next level is safety - a desire to protect ourselves from external threats for survival.
It's no wonder why the puppet masters constantly hang these first two levels over our heads to get what they want. Examples; "You must give up XYZ rights and we must bomb XYZ countries to keep you safe from terrorism" or "You must bailout XYZ companies and accept XYZ government programs or everyone will be hungry, ill and homeless".
When you threaten something so primal and innate you're sure to get a reaction from the masses.
Unless Ron Paul! -Lorax

America already elected at least 2 morons in recent history
GWB and Barrack Obama.
If you let the establishment step all over you and push their agenda you lose--game over.
They've been winning the Presidency since at least JFK.
We win we get freedom--they win they get rich sucking us dry as slaves. Get with reality.

Fight the Ron Paul blackout on the Daily Paul (now 'P AU L'), put his removed poster back as your avatar:

wonderful post!
well stated! love it!
Wow!!!
Thanks for the encouragement. I admire your humble attitude and appreciate your thought-provoking comments.
bobspirit, I saw your post over at the LA Times. Nice work.
I posted this comment over there also. Felt good.

Here are the choices. What is yours?
1. Amoral warmonger = Gingrich
2. Muslim-hating gay-hating warmonger = Santorum
3. Flip-Flopping warmonger = Romney
4. Constitutionalist Golden Rule Peacemaker = Ron Paul
Choose well. The future of this country and world hangs in the balance.
Hope you don't mind
I just pasted and printed this. I will be hanging it on my cubicle at work.
Thanks for the clarity!
"In the beginning of change, the patriot is a scarce man, brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, however, the timid join him, for then it cost nothing to be a patriot.”-Mark Twain
Mind?
I'm honored.
Remember, the lost souls who didn't vote for Dr. Paul are just victims of the insidous and powerful brainwashing our people receive on a daily basis. They are our brothers and sisters, and our countrymen.
Our faith and determination is there for them to see. All we need to do is let them see it.
If I can help for a moment to elevate your spirits, and you are the believers in liberty, what can you do for those in your world with nothing to believe in but the fear they are fed every waking moment of their lives?
We can't drag people into the light, and we don't need to try. Just turn your light up as high as you can, and they will come to you.
Well stated.
Thank you for words of encouragement.
Tears
Welled up in my eyes as I read your post. Feel so sad because I see how the system is set up to defeat us as individuals... The truth you stated here touched me deeply and encourages me to fight on, and to keep believing. Thank you. God Bless you bobspirit.
Mods...please front page this thread.
NOW is the time to Donate!
While the campaign had SC and FL figured out long ago, we still cannot help but feel disappointed tonight. Turn that disappointment into RESOLVE. Resolve and determination to fight even harder for our champion of liberty, Dr. Paul. Nothing helps the campaign more than $ donations. PLEASE DONATE NOW! www.RonPaul2012.com Let's show him, and everyone else, that his support has NOT waned, but is, rather, even stronger now! :)
Yes, exactly, bobspirit!
It's all about acquiring the fiercer, crystal clear vision of long-lasting Faith, Hope and Love/will & generosity to act in the midst of fast moving illusions of propagandized artificial "narratives", isn't it!?
Ron Paul's life in pursuit of excellence and virtues is an invitation for us to emulate him day-in and day-out as we walk through this illusion of dark fearful forest planted within our minds by the power elites.
RP r3VOLution is life-changing, because of that. We learn to liberate ourselves from our own fear and bondages. . . And we learn that best in adversity, when things "seem" not to be progressing as quickly as we wish.
Uplifting,
ytc, wow, for me DP has been a maturing process, gaining insights, increase in knowledge = enlightens. thanks.

I keep thinking the same thing.
The change ensuing is WAY bigger than a GOP primary with a revolutionary candidate. That we're noticed by so many of the apathetic yet unconvinced is pretty amazing in and of itself.
However, this has been going on since the 60's energy was co-opted. The boil simmered but is now back again and it's far more diverse this time. There are magnitudes more data points to connect and convince.
I really like the Daily Bell's coining it "the Internet Reformation". Something much greater we all have to protect as liberty's greatest weapon, us.
Well Said = Fiercely,
very positive, raises optimism, a simple bump will do (for now). I want to search for the video with Adam Kokesh's speech (to post on this thread), where he speaks fiercely, - it is needed to re-charge our batteries.
