An idea forum

I think we need a wiki to develop plans (political, etc) on. (threads here eventually become forgotten, and a topic + random comments isn't exactly the easiest way to create document clear plans)

A forum like this, and maybe even a chat room (IRC or web-based) for discussing without poluting the wiki.

A way to organize geographically, maybe according to political geographic areas (Campaign for Liberty actually does this).

An educational section on a website (Campaign for Liberty also has a section like this, but it would be nice to have one in a wiki-like setup as well, so new things can be added by the community).

I've actually built a website (using Drupal, like dailypaul uses) that so far has something like a wiki, a built-in web based chat room, user blogs, google adsense sharing (you get a percentage of the ad views on your blog posts and forum threads if you enter your adsense number into your account), a forum, invite system, buddylist, etc, but it's hosted on my own computer at home, and even though I have cable internet, it will still be really slow for everyone that access the site (despite cable's fast download speed, the upload speed is way slower). So I'm hesitant to give out the address for it (might completely bog down my internet connection). I just put it together a couple days ago. It still needs a bit of work, and a decent theme, but it's otherwise functional.

Attend the End the Fed rally if there's a location nearby and pass out copies of AFTF or the latest issue of Republic Magazine. If you're busy or not the rally type then send one to your House Rep. Find out if they'r paid for or just ignorant.

I think it's more than possible to raise awareness AND prepare contingency plans. The things we've been preaching about to those around us for so long are on their way. The establishment knows the importance of getting their message out first in order to be effective... If we keep planting seeds I think many will remember or awaken as they see the events taking place. One thing we know is that they need as many people as possible to accept their nwo solution when the crises hit. The control they have over our fellow citizens is their main power. Every person we awaken adds to us and subtracts from them. Imo, that is their ticking clock (if it's not something astronomical or climate-related).

"I killed the Bank."

On a federal & State level. (like my capitalization?)

To bring up legislation that requires that all new legislation and all that come up for renewal, must cite the specific passage of the Constitution that authorizes that legislation. If the new legislation can't prove to be legitimate according to the Constitution of the State/US, then It cannot go to a vote. We would have to figure in something to avoid the general welfare argument that would be sure to be used as a blanket excuse.

I know that this has been brought up before and buried in committees, that is why there has to be a massive effort to petition and call all Reps. to bring this up.

Thank you Dr. Paul for making me act on what I already knew was right.

...remember those two kooks who sniped civilians at large for no reason? remember how those inside the communities were put on notice?

ventura has jokingly mentioned that he could put the nation at a stand still with 7 well trained Navy Seals. I believe him, because I am a veteran SF Officer.

If a revolution does come to violence, it may just take a coup to capture our government again. hell, under W.'s administration, more generals and colonels retired, quit, or were forced-resigned than under any other administration.

Imagine if Emanuel, Cheney, Rove, Wolfowitz, Kristol, Paulson met some demise?

They do it. Ask Eliot Spitzer, or those less fortunate that have met a questionable outcome.

We are indeed facing tumultuous times. The more I see about what is going on, the less I am confident that we can take back our country peacefully. It will indeed be from the ground up.

Sigh.

Not to be negative, but after this year's election debacle, I have come to believe that we will not be able to change anything from the top down.... we will have to work from the bottom up. The degree of control weilded by the NWO/globalist establishment is staggering...... they have the media, the money, the military, and most importantly, they pretty much have control of the minds of the American sheeple (and judging from the way the WORLD has reacted to the "messiah's" "election", the problem is international.....most people are followers and are misinformed, ignorant, closed minded, and of course some are just dumber than a bag of hammers).
While I DO believe that it's still possible to start from the ground up and eventually change things by getting people into local government, I seriously doubt that we're going to have time for that approach. This NWO thing is coming down on us like a runaway train.... "they" have
been planning this for 100 years (or possibly much longer) and I think that the whole thing has almost reached a 'critical mass', so to speak. I personally believe that they are on a specific timetable and have a deadline approaching (I won't go into my reasons here), but it should be sufficient to say that they mean it when they say ""We shall have World Government, whether or not you like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent."
(as stated by James Paul Warburg appearing before the Senate on 7th February 1950) Kinda makes you wonder who the "We" is, that will have world government whether we (the people) like it or not. If it's NOT the bastards we see running this circus right now, then I don't know who else it could be.

I think at this point we should continue to do what we can to get good people into local, state, and even federal government, but I'm also a realist...... it's probably going to come down to a Revolution that involves violence. Having said that, I think that we should be organizing, getting prepared, trading contact info, and coming up with various contingency plans for action which would be appriopriate for the various scenarios which could be coming. We need to be asking, "what if they ______", and what will we do (as a group) if _______ happens.

The political process SHOULD work, but as we can see, it doesn't. That's why the Founders wrote the Constitution the way they did. They knew that sometimes things go off the rails the only way to change a corrupt regime is to give the PEOPLE the power to (literally) throw the bums out. I sometimes wonder if THEY already knew about the long term plans of the NWO..... the Constitution seems to be written SPECIFICALLY as a defense against what we see today, but irregardless we've probably waited too long already, but I have hope that there are enough of us out here to make a difference. A small, organized, determined group can accomplish incredible things.

It's probably going to take food shortages and riots to wake up most Americans, and we need to be ready to give them somewhere to go and to direct their anger and frustration when they wake up.

Just my 2 cents, though.

about sending books to our Iraq and Afganistan troops with the purpose of educating them as well as letting them know they are on our mind. My post about a Liberty Library:
