I am Ron Paul!!!

Dear Dr. Paul, Headquarters Staff and Fellow Patriots Nation-wide,

I address you here as there has been no response to my several emails, notifying you of serious problems for members within groups and the national organization. I will send a copy to your Congressional Office, Sir, to ensure that you know of this alert.
All across this nation, hundreds of thousands of Ron Paul supporters have been and remain isolated within our individual groups and from our brothers and sisters nationally in this revolution.
In this morning after Super-Tuesday, when we need our greatest strength, commitment and dedication, we are still without the simple structure that would secure the great potential of our cause. We are neither organized nor united in our numbers. Continued isolation increases the vulnerability to our cause and to all who have stood in opposition to this tyranny. Our force of numbers is limited by a lack of national unity. This must change immediately if we are to be prepared for November and beyond. My letters have all been ignored. This is the perfect time to regroup as the faint-hearted and "summer soldiers" are unwisely leaving our ranks.
I address this firstly to you, Dr. Paul, for recently, you were insulted for "disorganization" publicly. I cringed as I watched you take the abuse in our place. I know they were not referring to you, Sir, it is to us, the thousands of disorganized groups and members, that the barb was directed. HQ also has been blamed incessantly for OUR lack of personal responsibility and self-disciplined motivation. The blame is not to Headquarters either, although they have often misjudged the leadership provided us and misunderstood certain necessities to support and sustain this noble Revolution.
I was a member of three unofficial RP groups simultaneously, none of which even had a phone committee, nor did they wish one. There were no meetings held, no membership lists for contact, no serious efforts for advancing and sustaining our civil-disobedient Revolution. I failed in all attempts to assist in the forming of committees, resisted at every point by not only the local group leaders but the appointed RP HQ state and local leadership as well. I never give up, however, so here, is a recap of my emails.
The committee system (known as Parliamentary Procedure) has ceased to be taught in our educational system since the late fifties, limiting organizational thought and inhibiting comprehension of a structured, sustainable organization. This simple and extremely efficient structure (used by our Founding Fathers) is used almost exclusively today by our enemy as the most effective, efficient and enduring manner with which to advance and secure a goal.
Why, then, with the proof surrounding us, have all attempts to utilize this structure been met with resistance by most leaders and members in general? Three primary explanations exist and none of them attractive: an ignorance of fundamental organizational skills, an inability of implementation or the paltry political self-serving interests that fear the loss of control of group membership numbers. The latter is the most dangerous to the goal we pursue.
Ron Paul supporters nationwide must unite with the official national movement and provide the infra-structure and net-work necessary to expand as we advance. When nation-wide groups have a basic structure, there is immediate unity, sustainability and possibility for evolving the whole process to a higher level of organization. Example: With just TEN stout-hearted patriots, (1) a Communication Committee is formed with links to communication committees in every county in this nation, (2) an Information Committee is suddenly multiplied by thousands (and a proper Library Exchange results), and (3) a Guidance Committee has immediate and direct access to HQ for directives from and input to Dr. Paul and his staff at HQ (sub-committees come along naturally). From this most basic structure we develop, evolve and increase in numbers and unity. At the same time, we strength our position, increase our knowledge, widen our base and utilize individual potential. This is what we signed up to do: to be involved in the advance of reclaiming our liberty in an orderly manner.
Volunteers strive to be useful as a part of the whole, to serve the cause, to work towards the goal of restoring our freedom, not to be blocked from national unity, each other or our potential.
There are a few well-organized groups that are working towards that goal: they place newspaper ads, plan creative events and hold fund-raisers for Dr. Paul's campaign. Patriots working in organized unity to advance and sustain this historic momentum in our struggle to achieve the goal. Your Presidency, Dr. Paul, is the first goal, but not the ultimate goal; you told us from the beginning: "It is the message that is important". Your loyal example to restore the Constitution and the Republic has shown us the way to stand for our individual rights and freedom. I am convinced that we must now be required to "fall in line and get organized to get the job done."
The most noble cause and all the zeal in this world can never replace organization. Spartacus had noble cause and zeal; the Romans had organization and discipline.
There are now those who propose wearing a shirt saying "I AM RON PAUL". I ask you, Dr. Paul, to not allow this to happen. Your name should identify only those registered within your official movement. I ask further that you consider disavowing any group that refuses to come under your leadership, taking away the right to use the name RON PAUL in any usage. Many who carry your banners are unwittingly undermining the advancement of the message and discouraging earnest volunteers who, after much wasted time, give up on their desire to unite with this movement.
Fellow Patriots, let us prayerfully remember why we joined this fight, re-commit to that noble cause, register under Dr. Paul with HQ, regroup within our county and begin afresh the dedication to our work of securing Dr. Paul as President and our Constitution. Disorganized leadership must be held accountable by the Guidance Committees just as they are held accountable by the members and voted in and out; we cannot allow the less than diligent and undisciplined to jeopardize the cause. Anyone remember when HQ came out with a good plan to assist each group to get organized? No one seemed to know anything about it or did anything with it. As there were no meetings in my groups, I sent emails regarding the outline, with developed suggestions for fast, simple implementation. No replies. So I sent other inquiries with suggestions to HQ, RP State coordinator and local RP leadership. Still no response. I joined the Official RP National anyway (it is the correct thing to do) and, like most of you, continued working like crazy for our Man Paul, patiently awaiting a reply. Until now.
Super-Tuesday is behind us, my precinct duties are over, and we need to get this done. What I have described here can be done in a matter of days, nation-wide. It is simple, efficient and fast.
Least you forget, the enormity of the Evil that we face is beyond description and, just as Dr. Paul risked his life to awaken us, we are already "tagged" as an undesirable or an "enemy combatant"; it will avail us nothing to withdraw now. Our "hand is to the plow". We have only go forward and, by uniting, we may very well win, though nothing is sure. Still, "Defeat is nothing but defeat". So if we fail, let us fail under the united leadership of Dr. Paul as a national, peaceful Revolution, not floundering in these disjointed, separatist groups of ineffectiveness capitalizing on his name and a noble movement.
We shall win, however, no matter the cost.
Now that the cat is out of the bag, so to speak, IT IS VITAL THAT WE DO THIS IMMEDIATELY. The second greatest fear of the enemy is that we organize. HQ, contact me immediately. Thank you.

Respectfully,
Motorgrader1

Lost Thread IDEA!! I AM RON PAUL!!! UPDATED!!

Posted January 12th, 2008 by takeaction

Okay...I was reading through hundreds of threads..and somebody out there had an idea that I thought was great for a T-Shirt or Bumper Sticker. I am going to have them made if nodody else does. On The T-Shirt it will say "I am Ron Paul" That is it. THis will generate so many comments....and if you think about it. All of us are Ron Paul. We are an extension of him........and for years to come...no matter what happens in this BS world.....for my entire life....even 30 years from now when the good doctor is gone.....for life....I AM RON PAUL......what a cool idea to initiate questions and explain what the Shirt means to people who ask.
What do you think?

Get one here

Bump...indeed we are Ron Paul. Dont throw your convictions away because even the Less Evil...is still Evil. Dont dumb down your beliefs.

It's not about placing a bet on a race horse, it's about voting for a candidate for a political office who holds principles that most closely match your own - and would govern by them. This is a person who would unfortunately have significant power over your life - why waste a vote on someone simply because they have better odds?

I vote my principles. I vote my conscience. I never vote for who I think CAN win. In the long run it's about a 50/50 shot anyway - you gonna tell me all those people who voted for the loser 'wasted their votes'?

Keeping the faith and ramping up my involvement.

amen

Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito!

Do not give in to evil but proceed ever more boldly against it!

NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER SURRENDER!

You my friend are exactly correct this is not about Ron Paul, this is about Freedom, Ron Paul has just been the vassel brave enough to put the last 10 years of blood sweat and tears into this fight. He has done his job already, with or without the nomination, and if he runs as a third party candidate even better. That would just serve to awaken more. The real question is are we all just a bunch of talkers or are we willing to match his effort, match his blood sweat and tears for this rEVOLution, because if we are not than we are only wasting our time.

Now my friends we see what we are up against, and now we know how to organize as well as promote our cause, raise funds and keep eachother motivated. There is no reason to stop now, this is about our Constitution, I remind you this is what we are fighting for. The Message of Freedom is'nt just a message it is the law. There will be other to carry the torch of Freedom, We are the future of this Country, and if you're not willing to believe that then Tyranny has already one. Wake up, Wake up Others and keep Moving Forward.

Please Friends Fellow Patriots!

LET FREEDOM RING!!!!

Watch this Video it says it all!!!!

Now we have every reason to go on, to stay organized and keep our rEVOLution alive.
The Seeds of Truth we Plant today will grow to be the Tree of Freedom tommorow.

We should ask everybody we talk to if they would vote for Ron Paul IF they thought he could win. If they said, "I would if he had a chance," then give them a shirt saying, "I am Ron Paul." It will empower them. Tell everyone to wear them on Saturdays, while they're out and about.
