I HAVE NOT YET BEGUN TO FIGHT!

0 votes

I confess. I've been getting discouraged. Nothing has gone the way I had hoped. I was hoping for just one breakthrough, somewhere. It didn't matter - Iowa, New Hampshire, Michigan, Wyoming... nada. When I first read Dr. Paul's platform I was sure he would be swept into power on the shoulders of the American people. Nope. Not gonna happen (to quote a not-so-famous former president). So here I sit. What to do...

WAKE UP! What the hell is my problem? Consider our forebears. Consider those who pledged their lives, their fortunes, their sacred honor. Self, you have not yet struggled to the point of shedding blood. There's a revolution to be fought! It may end up in the White House this year and it may not, but there's a battle to be fought! A battle for the hearts and minds of my beloved, if dull and apathetic, neighbors and countrymen. So Self, shake off the pity-party, throw off the graveclothes, and get back to work. Why did I think that this would be so quick and easy? Those who have been working to enslave us have been working ever so patiently to strip us of our liberties (David Rockefeller, of CFR infamy, is a Fabian Socialist -- look it up and the connection will make sense). We need to be as willing to exercise patience as our opponents.

So, onward I will press. The immediate results don't matter, win or lose, onward to liberty -- or remain here and be enslaved. So I press onward!

Who's with me?

Ron Paul who?

I've been a supporter of Dr. Paul since 1984. His only run for the U.S. Senate was against Phil Gramm. I had no idea who Ron Paul was at that time. Needless to say, the man has come a long way in the last 23+ years. I am not discouraged in the least. I've had to find other avenues for pushing my enthusiasm over the top, but I am not discouraged. No. Ron Paul has been around slick politicians for many, many years. He has spoken to empty house chambers on topics of critical importance. He handles criticism like any true adherent to Christianity would or should. I don't worship the man, but I do like his principles. Have faith, keep working at the grassroots level, and we will see changes in the status quo.

I'm as HOPEFUL AS EVER!

We're Ron Paul Supporters. If you stumble, pick yourself up. Don't come online and tell us how you fell down? Where's your pride?!?!?

We have them on the RUN. They know they're WRONG. They have to fulfill their mission. We have to fulfill ours. If they invited us to their party we'd probably go along with it - BUT THEY DIDN'T - They left us out to Dry.

They didn't tell us what was going on. We weren't invited. So its time to take it back. Did you think taking back the world would be a pushover?!

And change your title, its not the title of a patriot.

Harry... You need to study a little US history

Long before John Paul Jones was the bassist for Led Zeppelin, Admiral John Paul Jones was the author of that quote, and he is a GREAT American patriot. Your post was a little childish to boot. "We have them on the run?" Do you know who "they" are? Do you know what power "they" yield? Maybe you think it's Fox... or maybe those other Republicans. You need to do a little research into the CFR, Trilateral Commission, World Federalists, the Rockefellers, the Rothschilds and the rest of the "monied interests". You have them on the run? You'd best reassess our opponents. They are formidable, and they won't be easily beaten, but they CAN be beaten. These are the powers spoken of by Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, who exercise power behind the scenes. So don't prattle on like some ignorant schoolboy.

Actually it is a good title of a patriot.

John Paul Jones said it during a very famous sea battle in the American Revolution.

We dont HAVE 4 more years!

Problem is....we dont HAVE 4 more yaers to give to some neo-con lapdog or Billary....the NAU will be in place and US soviernty will be lost forever.

I'm with you brother

This thing is a long-term endeavor. Ron Paul's campaign is just one aspect of a larger struggle.

You cannot allow yourself to become

discouraged. The first Libertarian I voted for was a fellow named John Hospers in 1972 and nobody had ever heard of him or the Libertarian party. I recall the look I got when I asked for (and did receive) a paper ballot. He got less than 4000 votes nationwide. It has gotten better since then but it will always be a struggle against ignorance and entrenched special interests. He actually did get a vote in the electoral college when an elector, pledged to Nixon, decided to cast his vote for Hospers. A small victory, but it was a start.

I SURE DA HELL AM!!!

To the end..... I'll rot in jail before I go and fight for the mega corporations that pollute this planet.

Watch this!

Does my burka make my butt look fatwa?

A key in fighting for liberty

is that to limit it to only Ron Paul is guaranteed failure. If Ron Paul loses the nomination and ends up off the ballot, yet engaged more people to open their eyes to liberty, then him running for president was well worth it. What happens after Ron Paul is up to each one of us. To continue fighting for freedom against incredible odds. And even if we die without changing government, to pass (that's pass, not force) our fight onto others and to die knowing we never sold our souls to a lesser devil will become among our greatest personal successes.

So, to the question "Am I with you?"

I've been fighting since 2004.

doc holliday - tombstone

nonsense, i have not yet begun to defile myself.

if you could see me surrounded by all these empty beer bottles youd think its as funny as me

Too many don't realize it's a battle

We're going to have to fight for Freedom, sacrifice our comfort and convenience for it. We're not going to win by sitting back and watching and waiting. We have to get up and do something! Maybe do a lot of things that we're maybe not comfortable doing, like talking to people we don't know about Paulitics, signing up to be a Precinct Captain, calling people that we don't know, or maybe calling people we DO know! But staying comfortable and waiting for someone else to do it won't win any battles. We have to get up and do what we may not want to do, to get the Country that we want to have.

Words of Wisdom

Thanks for the words of wisdom. I too am discouraged at times. Yesterday, I ran across this blog by Libertarian activist Andrew Horning:

Enough talk…

This is my final blog. Not that I spent much time on blogging (or that I was particularly good at it), but I will not blog anymore. I will not read blogs anymore. In fact, I wish you wouldn’t either.

It’s time to act.

What more do we need to say, hear or read?

Our founders bequeathed us peace and freedom by way of liberty and justice for all; and we’ve thrown it all away. All of it.

It is gone and the illusion that’s left is fading fast.

If you want back what is ours by law, it’s time to act. If you and your neighbors don’t want it back enough to act, then it’s time to go the way of all foolish nations and learn to live oppressed. That is what’s coming, you know.

If I’m to write anything more in this space, it will be to announce actions.

We need to demand that our politicians stay on their side of the fence, obey their laws, keep their leash on themselves - and off of us. We need our politicians to obey written constitutions as written, and we can’t expect them to do that without our incessant, urgent and forceful action.

And don’t think that Ron Paul is going to save us either. If we don’t get off our duffs and do something, then even President Paul’s victory would result in only another assassinated president.

No more talk. You don’t need any more information than you’ve already got in your tax bill, and in any history book ever written.

There. I’ve said my bit. I’m going to go and do something now. If you’d like to join me, let me know.

Andrew ran for mayor in Indianapolis a few years back. His words of wisdom gave me some encouragement to continue the fight.

When are RP enthusiasts gonna realize

its not about winning primaries or winning the presidency. It is about what is coming to the USA if some one like him does not get into the right place to do the right thing..

Don't make RP do everything. Start getting involved in your local precincts.

Words of Encouragement

Do not call conspiracy everything that these people call conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy. He is the one you are to fear. he is the one you are to dread. Isaiah 8:12-13

Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? The kinds of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the Lord... The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them. Psalm 2:1-5

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

Whenever I get discouraged, I remind myself that ultimately God is in control. If God wills that Ron Paul should be victorious, then there is not a single power in this universe that will be able to stop him. If Ron Paul is not to win, then I am convinced that his campaign has awakened many people in America to the truth. Either way, Ron Paul is a godly man that I believe has been prepared for this day to either reform our nation or to remind us what truth and justice look like.

Judgement & Justice

For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him (Gen. 18:19)

Ron Paul is The Modern day Robert E Lee

Plus one brother patriot! I

Plus one brother patriot! I have been in this fight many years and I was even discouraged and feeling tired after all these years but we now have victory within our grasp! Never did I dream that in my lifetime hundreds of thousands of patriots would embrace the message of freedom and liberty.

The enemies of freedom never rest, eternal vigilance is our refuge! I have rededicated myself to the fight for freedom the rest of my days.

Do what you can when can do your best don't worry about the rest. If you fall or make a wrong turn get back up take a breather dust yourself and press on!

Thank god for the rebels! If not for the rebels this life and our history would be rather dismal and backward.

Gene, If you need energizing

check out what's goin down in Nevada right NOW!

If ANYBODY is on the West side of the Miss. River, GOTO Nevada tonite or tomorrow early!!

Be a WITNESS! There is CRIME goin on.

After...

You have waged a 72 year battle (Ron Paul's age)---then, and only then, will you have earned the right to complain.

Funny...though, he just keeps on teaching the message, and waging the war.

I am!!

I refuse to give up or be beaten down. I knew this was going to be a long hard fight and I am in for the duration.

every supporter I know

is in this all the way. I never thought this would be easy, but I always hope the breakout moment is just around the corner. Nov 5th, TeaParty07,
New Hampshire, and now Nevada. On the other hand, we have only ever moved in the positive direction, unlike many others in this race. And we have already outlasted many who were considered to be more electable.
Every moment that Ron Paul is on the stage with the chosen ones is a humiliating blow to the establishment. I love every minute of it!

are you kidding?

I just joined the precinct leader program. I, too, have not yet begun to fight!

My neighbors are going to find out what I know!
