Is Ron Paul getting tired?

I love what Ron Paul does and I admire his integrity and dogged determination.

Of late, though, he seems tired, worn down and not as able to articulate.

Does anyone else see this?

Dr Paul, do you need a holiday? Or TLC? Please, someone, everyone, help to give Dr Paul a break. The world needs him!

he always makes me cry

you know sometimes when you go to church, and you hear a different message than your husband, kids, friends etc. The spiritual translation in your own heart, it's just like that when I hear him speak, words of true freedom and liberty.

Now don't think I am worshiping Ron Paul, I'm not though he is high on the list....

Ron Paul cured my apathy - I cured my ignorance!
!!!Truth is treason in the EMPIRE OF LIES!!!

" Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of they day; but a series of oppresssions...pursued unalterably, through every change of ministers, too plainly proove delibrate, systematical plan of reducing us to slavery..."

WOW! Honestly, I never heard

WOW! Honestly, I never heard Dr. Paul use Goldman Sachs so much in one speech!

I worry about Dr. Paul.

If something should ever happen to a jetliner that he's on, we should all march down to Goldman Sachs and have a word with them.....

Then

march down to dislodge the top of the pyramid since many know who it's comprised of. Basically if Dr. Paul catches a cold someone loses a finger.

I worry for him too...

It's the ONE reason I was happy he did not win the presidency.

HE WOULD BE LONG DEAD BY NOW.

New "Honest Money" system?

by Tom LaMar- Dr. Paul's ideas are bold, needed, and refreshing, but I would like to know why he wants to return to a gold standard? Should not the value of a nation's money depend on it's GNP/GDP and savings and gold, silver, etc....so that the successful, frugal, productive nations have the best currency valuations? Adjustments to the amount of money could be made according the fortunes of the named country with the most productive being the richest. This would mean that the GNP/GDP would always tend to be in balance with the money supply, lessening inflation/deflation. Undeveloped resources would not count as they are not "liquid" enough, but rules would have to be set up to cover various "degrees of manufacture" of goods...and services (say..the quality of doctors or purity of silver, etc.). The valuations necessary would be difficult, but not impossible; that is what negotiations are about. As a non-expert I expect to be informed of my errors shortly...should be an eye-opener for me ! tnx for reading. BTW catch my small contribution at: www.historiclakes.org/saratoga/saratoga.htm

Fed Policy Crushes the Consumer

On Thursday, Congressman Paul questioned Fed Governor Elizabeth Duke during a House Financial Services Subcommittee hearing on consumer protections and the Federal Reserve.

As Dr. Paul argues in this video, additional regulations will be just another tax on consumers, and until we address the underlying problem of the Federal Reserve System itself, consumers will continue to watch the value of their savings decline.

Ron Paul 2012 for Peace

Did you notice the hint about H.R. 1207 at the end...

Ron Paul said in the video at the end that when we open up the books and see what the relationship is with the fed and goldman sacs then we will know how to protect the consumer...

What he really meant was HR 1207 is going to pass and the banksters will goto jail for fraud.

Gracious!

And their attorneys too?

yes

Them too and all off wallstreat....

consumer protection.... Protect the consumer from fraudulent lending procedures.

Great u-tube ! All it takes is one dedicated man,,,,

,,To educate a country.

Hugo Salinas Price is Ron Paul's counter part in Mexico, and is the person most responsible for the Mexican people being able to save in Silver, legally in a bank.
Here is a link to some of the articles he's written:

http://www.financialsense.com/editorials/salinasprice/main.html

When Ron Paul talked about the Mexicans being able to save Silver in a bank to preserve their wealth he hit on a very important topic, in my opinion.

Why?

Because every paper currency in the world is losing value or purchasing power, while the Silver has tripled in currency values over the last 8 years.

If Americans had simply saved physical Gold/Silver for their retirements over the last 8 years, most would be much better off than they are with dollar denominated retirement plans. Calipers of California is a good example.

We can only change & educate ourselves & share this w/ everyone!

We have the power to change ourselves.

We have the power to share what we have learned about history & the Oligarchy, the Bankers and Fascist corporations to our friends, family, & everyone who we talk to.

We have the power to pass out tons of truth telling videos.
trueworldhistory.info has a ton of vid's.

consciousmedianetwork.com has great vids

We have always have held the power because WE are the creators. They create nothing but rule's to steal & control us.

I have the power to change my self & create the world I choose to live in.
Visualize a peaceful world of responsible people & governments and we will have it.

The ONE honest voice...once again

All the American sheeples should see this.

Obviously I DO NOT consider those who visit this site to be sheeples. You are in fact THE INFORMED.

But sadly, MOST of America won't see this great Dr. Paul video.

THAT is the shame of it all.

Ignorance is bliss they say.

But knowledge is power.

H.R. 1207

I have a few questions about the private Federal Reserve Bank and the legal standing they might enjoy as a private enterprise; with real property and intellectual property rights. What is the actual contract between the US Government (Congress) and the Feds? Is the contractual arrangement essentially spelled out in title 31 of the United States Code? Does the fed have to allow the “audit”, if H.R.1207 is successful (I don’t think the government should be able to force any private entity to do what is not in an original contract)? Of course, if they were unwilling … then “END THE FED” would be easier to accomplish. Is the Fed doing anything that is possibly illegal as set forth in our contract with them? At this point I believe investing in companies that make paper shredders might be a good idea … is there any legal method to ensure the survival of historical information/transactions with the Feds (injunctions) … does our current contract allow for document safety and penalty for destruction? I apologize in advance if these issues have been elucidated previously … I don’t always take the time to read all the comments. Also, I haven’t seen anything on Daily Paul about H.R. 3129 (to stop US funding of the UN in regards to Climate Change) … I would suspect that most on this site would agree to stop total funding, let alone just a very small part – but it is a start.

Dr. Ron Paul is my President

Audio Problem...Try External Speakers.

I notice that if I use my Laptop, I can't hear it at all.

When I swap to my DeskTop with external speakers connected, I can hear it much better.

Hope this helps.

The House right now is voting on a bill for Federal Land for Wild Horses and Burro's - anything to keep HR 1207 off the floor, even if it takes debating about jack asses.

Debating themselves??

Never thought I'd live to see the day! Congress debating itself!

I'm glad he mentioned Mexico and their middle class.

Freedom is not a country, it is not in your luggage. It is the dirt under your fingernails and in your heart. Any human is capable of being responsible for freedom, and an immigrant is yearning for the freedom to have the responsibility to have freedom. And that is what is under attack, amoung things like our financial, medical and agricultural systems.
As we speak, Mexico is being "flattened" by earth movers. Agenda 21 is nearly complete in Mexico.
The mountain tops in United States are loped off in mere months, making room for Agenda 21.
Ron Paul also mentioned the devastating nature of stimulous and enabling the special interest, over and over again.
These oligarch's have an insidious and destructive history. During the last 30 years, "they" have enabled the "super preditor" called Monsanto and others to become super sized, enabling environmental rape and pillage, and military forced migrations leading to local extinctions, globally.
They are rampaging blind rhinos.
I hope, that when we get control of balanced means of exchange, that it enables the good fight, for what that means to you.
When you wipe out the small family farmer, you wipe out the middle class. When you wipe out the middle class, you loose the best defense against environmental degradation, the hands on stewardship of the small family farmer.

And never forget, “Humans, despite our artistic pretensions, our sophistication and many accomplishments, owe the fact of our existence to a six-inch layer of topsoil and the fact that it rains.”

Audio doesn't work for me.

I understand most people will be able to hear it, but this is about the 4th time I have had to watch a Ron Paul video about the Fed on an alternative internet connection. Every time it happens I see comments that a select few are also having the audio problem. Just throwing this out there.

The problem has nothing to do with my computer or any of my settings on my end. I can watch it and listen to it fine on the same computer over my mobile broadband.

Maybe somebody could download the video from youtube and put it up on another account to see if it still happens.

i am fowarding this to several people

Thank you so much for posting this. It is great. Ron is on fire. Excellent, straight, to the point, no nonsense. Go Ron!
