Can anyone here give me 1 solution Alex Jones has provided to help solve our problems other than buy my DVD?

Please provide one solution A J has given us to help solve the problems we face.

Reading many comments already I am told, WHY does he need to provide solutions? Answer : He doesn't and I never said he has to do anything but that was not my question.

I have also seen : provide your solutions first, WOW that's rich. This still doesn't answer my question. Can anyone answer it?

I will happily start some posts this week providing solutions, I would still like an answer to my question first.

There has been lots of talk here about A J lately. First off A J is not my general and never will be, generals actually provide solutions to win battles. A J never provides solutions to anything other than saying buy my DVD, this would be a value if his DVD's actually provided any solutions but they do not.

Secondly, I did not find Ron Paul because of A J I actually found A J because of Ron Paul and daily paul.

Don't get me wrong A J does bring out some good information from time to time and I believe many of us appreciate that information but, A J could provide solutions if he wanted to do so but he does not and why? If he really reaches millions as you state wouldn't it be in the best interest of liberty to provide solutions to the people you claim he is waking up? Keep in mind we have over 300 million people in this country, isn't he the best person as some state to get the message out? What good is information if it isn't turned into positive action to make real changes?

Many people loyal to A J have stated that A J is only human and he is not perfect so give him a pass when he is wrong or misleading, I say when we give him a free pass we become hypocrits of the very principles we proclaim to instill in regards to the MSM and so does A J. You can't have it both ways, right is right and wrong is wrong plain and simple.

I used to support A J and still do to some degree but I take his info with a grain of salt and usually ignore most of what he says now because, simple research debunks him and many of his guests especially Horowitz when they state misinformation and misleading information or flat out lies as fact.

I have stated my opinion, good day.

I'm not a Jones

Fan. I heard him say that the arabs owned both Hollywood and the Stockmarket. That was enough for me. He may be waking people up, but he is offering no solutions. If I was going to lead dissent, I would go by his playbook. By ALL of these so-called leaders playbooks. By the time we find out the solutions the chains and shackles will be locked down on us. They know this. The only way to beat these devils is in the judicial system. We must recover and learn to impliment common law. For the record, I am willing to settle for this stance as we are in dire need of recovery. Without the right to trial by jury, we are doomed to communism, fascism, nazism, ect. And that is the direction we are heading. This is what is facilitating the police state. Everyone on this website must work towards the goal of learning the law and implementing the return of common law and the strict limitations of the UCC. Even those who work for the opposing teams. Because they know not what they do.

I have personally read articles where lawyers in China were killed along side their clients for releasing a video about the case. The select few that will be at the top of this pyramid will allow no competition. They will also cull the numbers of the populations. We are witnessing these things. The beast IS the judicial system that sits on the many waters ( admiralty ) It mirrored each beast before it ( empire ) ie, Babylon, Egypt, Rome, Asia, Europe, Americas, and the one world government that is to come. Obama is a constitutional lawyer folks as all these demons are well versed in law. If you don't know your rights, you don't have any and are subject to tyrants and devils.

people still looking for one

people still looking for one person to provide the solutions to our problems.

still thinking centralized, top down, tell me how your gonna do it.

have you asked how you yourself are going to be a solution?

I'm not an AJ lover. I catch a show once every month or two off the webstream.

He's a small player, and some people like him.

deal.

quit demanding people to provide solutions.

Are we still arguing about this?

Lame

I would say knowledge is power

Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must. like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.-Thomas Paine

The R3volution requires action, not observation!!!!

he has given us valuable information, that is his role he chose to take which I hope he makes billions doing so he has enough money and stays motivated to feed the sheeple more information. Money motivates some people to do good, and some people to do bad. We have enough enemies to throw bricks at, why are we throwing them at eachother in this movement? I will never understand posts like yours, no offense, but we got enemies to attack, and here we are attacking a guy making a living spreading knowledge.

Yuck

Here are just a few of the claims coming from the obedient loyalists, here:

jones was one of the few people responsible for convincing RP to run in the first place.
jones is close friends of paul, and has been for a long time.
jones is credited by paul for his meteoric rise in the spotlight.
jones work spawned the dailypaul

Excuse me while I vomit.

well...

i've listened to him for about an hour tonight and he mentioned Ron Paul no less than half a dozen times!

say what you will of him, his listeners, and there are possibly hundreds of thousands of them, are reminded of Dr. Paul every half hour...

do you do that with your neighbors?

O Captain! My Captain! Rise up and hear the bells!

yeah well

so did Glen Beck.

He's only one person, but

He's only one person, but has done more than anyone to get the word out, and he promotes Ron Paul and his audit, a major part of the solution. Even RP credits him for his meteoric rise in the spotlight. Were it not for AJ promoting him, you may not have had the opportunity to notice Dr. Paul.

No book is ever perfect for everyone. Likewise movie. Even the humble Dr. Paul has his detractors.

I am just tired of Jones.


If you like him, fine. I don't like the guy. If he provides good information then someone will repost it here. But I am done with AJ.

speaking of karma...

that's kinda how most people here feel about you!

O Captain, My Captain, rise up and hear the bells!

Careful

I wouldn't generalize about ZP or anyone else on here. He's just another voice....just like you and me. I think he's also one of the censors and probably into zen...whatever religion that is.

However, to say "most people" is a stretch. And even if it were true....what of it? It doesn't matter. Just ignore it.

I have an idea for you- how about you change your cutesy saying up there replacing the following words;

"smell" for the word "hear"

"coffee for the word "bells"

I think that's sorta' catchy...don't you?

I have some ideas for you

but I can't repeat them...

★★★★★★
http://www.documentarywir...
http://freedocumentaries....

i agree, it is sorta' catchy...

but then, that wouldn't define me, would it? the whole point of a signature is to define one's self, isn't it? so my signature is not so much about trying to redefine walt whitman to, using an ezra pound maxim, "make it new" for today's age as much as it is waking people up to the same 'ol story...

i would never dream of editing walt whitman, rather, i would invite people to rediscover him and hope they would, in the process, rediscover our constitutional republic...

as far as the zenmoderator is conerned, his place and stature here has been defined many times, i am just stating a fact, albeit, through my own rose colored glasses...

thank you for saying whitman is cute, he might appreciate that!

O Captain! My Captain! Rise up and hear the bells!

Signature?

No, that's not your signature. Your signature is your name written out. What you have is just a statement, like many folks have, at the bottom of every post.

Frankly, whitman has the perfect grave site for himself located in Camden, NJ. You should see it! An attraction for druggies, winos, bums and litter.

Say, he was a queer wasn't he?

Alex Jones has said time and time again. Action is the solution.

Taking action as individuals and collectively to raise awareness is the answer. The solution is doing what he has done but in your own way. He has his method... now employ your method to the cause of freedom.

Alex Jones is absolutely right. One man cannot do it alone but together nothing can stop us and our cause to restore freedom and the Constitution. But it takes ACTION!

=====================================

"The greatest mystery of all is truth." - Me, 2009

The most important part of

The most important part of the solution is waking people up. I'd say he's doing as fair a job as any in that category. You say he's not your leader, he's not mine either but I appreciate what he does. You may be disappointed or even angry that he isn't using his platform to offer more solutions, but that's not his job. That's ours. He's just an alarm clock, it's not his job to brush your teeth, shave your beard and get you to work...

I agree, he is not the leader of the movement. He has flaws, questionable information and doesn't offer many actionable solutions, but then again he has often alerted us to those that do have the facts and the solutions. As you noted, many here found out about Ron Paul through Alex. I didn't, at least directly. I found out through the google ron paul and the r3volution signs on overpasses. Who knows, they may have been put up by alex jones listeners. He has also inspired and brought together, through common interest and concern, many of our great minds and activists who are out on the front lines today, getting things done. Not to mention the many urgent issues he has alerted us to so that WE may do something about it.

He doesn't have the battle plans to lead us to victory, but he may wake or inspire the ones that do, or at least wake up the army that will carry out the solutions once found.

Well said, poq.

.

that reminds me...

i think i'll surf over to infowars.com and check out AJ and what he has to say today...thanks, neverquit!

O Captain, My Captain, rise up and hear the bells!

And let's not forget his Y2K new years broadcast

Take your pick:

"Putin's is a DEMON, raging with power..."
"Nuclear power plants are FAILING across the country!"
"Military are HIGHLY visible!"
"I can't even keep track of all the news coming in!"

To be fair

I don't think most people realize the current film is part one in a series. Solutions were promised in the second part.

I think Alex provides solutions daily on his show. Informing people is the first step. Check out his sponsors for the second step. He often encourages his listeners to spread news virally and call and petition government and the people committing fraud against the people. There are several powerful films out there that don't tell you step by step what to do to make change in your community.

Also,

He never said you had to buy his DVD's. In fact you can watch them for free online or have a friend burn you a copy as per the notice on the back of official copies. How many film makers do out there even offer their work to the general public the day they launch it? Even someone like Michael Moore railing against capitalism would sue you if you tried to spread his film.

thank you, BaneMaler...

i "second" everything you said...no one is perfect, not even AJ but, for his few ranting sessions, his overall effect on me has been to help awaken me...

for that, i am grateful...

many people on here may be looking for a "cure-all"...there isn't one

we must take this information that is available, digest it, and act on it...

no one person is completely right but all of us have a part of the equation right...

those that have a problem with AJ because he is so very vocal worry me... i wonder if they have a hidden agenda!

O Captain, My Captain, rise up and hear the bells!

Although I find Alex odd at times, he was one of the voices in

wilderness screaming wake up, while most of you guys were sound asleep.
I saw Dr. Paul(Ron) grilling Ben Bernake on infowars.com long before their was the Daily Paul. I like to refer to people who come up (get wise), and forget their roots mushrooms. A mushroom can grow on anything because it dosent have any roots. Alex with all his faults is near and dear to my patriot heart because he helped nurture the grassroots support that is the Daily Paul. Alot of us on this site come from the Alex Jones camp. For the longest time there where few others that saw the light, and you all need to admit, he saw it coming miles away, years ahead of most of us and sounded the alarm. Alex is a reporter/patriot. I don't need him to find my solutions too. Thats your job and mine and the rest of the Rip Van winkles who woke up too late to salvage the constitutional protections we have lost.
So how again does this post further the revolution?
Lets stop being mushrooms eh!

49. Ko / Revolution (Molting)

Nine in the third place means:
Starting brings misfortune.
Perseverance brings danger.
When talk of revolution has gone the rounds three times,
One may commit himself,
And men will believe him.

http://deoxy.org/iching

he constantly tells

he constantly tells listeners to contact their congressmen and if u watch him predicting 9/11 he wasn't trying to sell dvds rather, he was trying to warn people. he is also one of the few people responsible for convincing RP to run in the first place which spawned this site which you use as a forum to criticize him... ahh i love cycles

well said patriot

yes I remember Alex heavily promoting Ron Paul presidential run in the spring 2007 before Ron became popular...and yes as Ron himself said Alex was one of the people who convinced RP to run.

I'll try and list all of the

I'll try and list many of the solutions AJ has mentioned and advocated over the years:

Repeal the patriot act at the local level, support the 10th amendment movement, attended and supported END the FED events, supported the tea party's before they were taken over by Fox News, support the new continental congress, get involved at the local level, whether it be city council or sheriff, follow corrupt judges, city councilmen, etc... and find dirt on them, stop using fluorodated water, GMO food, HFCS, aspartame, etc... vote for Ron Paul, one of AJ's listeners was the one who started Ron Paul moneybombs, numerous contests for spreading the word in the form of posters, movies, and general activism, starting We Are Change, who go out and confront politicians about many topics, stop Real ID, stopping genetic databases of babies (CCHC), support Gun Owners of America, Jews for the Preservation of Firearm Ownership.

There hasn't been many solutions proposed by the Patriot movement that AJ hasn't at sometime advocated for or promoted.

Ted Anderson, the owner of GCN spent $10,000's of his own money to support Ron Paul in a variety of ways. One, was the Ron Paul airforce, which flew RP banners in a few places around the country. He was a major sponsor of the Counter-Convention in Minneapolis.

AJ mostly does what he does best, which is spread the word on his radio show and documentaries. He encourages people to make unlimited copies and spread it virally over the internet and gives it away for free. It isn't his fault so many people want to buy them.

That sums it up perfectly.

That sums it up perfectly.

thank you, MEGAMERICAN...

thank you for stating the obvious for those who refuse to see (sometimes you just gotta put it out there in black and white to shut them up)...again, i have a problem with those "shouting down" AJ...what is their hidden motive?

now that you have posted this excellent information i doubt we will hear from Neverquit again!

O Captain, My Captain, rise up and hear the bells!

Great post. Thank you, Megamerican, for compiling that list.

I really don't understand the hostility toward Alex Jones or the people who support him.

I know this movement is not a one-man show, but I have to wonder if people do not realize how big of a part Alex Jones has played in it.

The answer to your question

is within the thread. I am a huge fan of AJ. He is a hero. He is essential and has done alot of good. But I dont look to him for solutions. I look to AJ for information. Because that is what the media is for... news! Relevant, factual and complete. AJ is one of the only sources of news and information out there. But I dont expect to find solution coming from him (although IF he provided some that would be welcome).

Likewise, I dont look to Ron Paul for information (even though he does provide some sometimes). I DO look to Ron Paul for solutions. Because he is a politician and that is what politicians are for.

Everyone with a brain knows

Everyone with a brain knows deep down in their heart what the "solution" is. We just can't talk about it without ending up as a lifetime guest of Homeland Security at one of their secret luxury hotels. Jones is just trying to wake people up, and as far as the DVD's are concerned he is one of the few that grants permission to freely copy and distribute his creations. That proves to me the message is more important than the money to him. More than I can say for this or many other venues.

one solution

Plain and simple when I first started we" truthers" were two percent and now we are eight to ten percent.You win wars by winning people.Many people may not agree with the truth movement but it is no longer ignored. Alex and others have given us information we would not have had.The solution he provides : we are no longer afraid to question 911,The Fed or the war on terror.The whole pile of garbage at the top is falling and no one can stop it now.We must take it from there. One thing for sure is we will be a new nation one way or another thanks to those who are exposing the elite.

I don't really care....

Here's my solution....become a creditor.

If we have enough creditors that control instead of being under control....things will change. However, it requires a backbone.

Why waste our time arguing about who is right?

The people who are truly right won't argue, they'll accept responsibility and change it.

We can become our own Alex Jones...or whoever we want to be.

Question is what do we really want?

The democracy does have a purpose, to control those who refuse to control themselves. (debtors)

The only law that exists today is the law inside of each and every one of us, so what do we believe?

We can change things, and I'm not talking about just supporting AJ or RP or anyone.....I'm talking about taking control of yourself and of our own lives, cause that is the ONLY thing we can really do. But IF enough can do that it WILL change the whole world.

Wisdom allows us to recognize our authority about who we really are and that we are already free if we are free inside. Wisdom gives confidence...confidence that will be required to stand against the corruption and fraud.

But how can we be confident if we do not understand the LAW...if we cannot understand how to hold people accountable under our current system, cause there is remedy available to us....we can stop forclosures, bankruptcies, horrendous statutes, the lawyer class that runs the banks/courts/chambersofcommerce (Congress etc.)...but how can we if we don't know how or refuse to learn how?

Alex is the canary in the coal mine

In a nutshell, the birds dead, lots of folks are still trying to dig, you saw the bird keel over, what would you do ?

great analogy, riceowlex...

you warn them as long as you can but you realize there may come that time when you just have to save yourself!

O Captain, My Captain, rise up and hear the bells!

I'm tired of having pwnage

I'm tired of having pwnage answers ignored by the crybabies.

Copied from below:

AJ solutions:

Donate to Rand/Peter/RJ/Kokesh/C4L/OathKeepers etc

We are Change

Campaign/vote for Ron Paul.

What more do you want?

AJ's solution #1: All the world can be conquered with a megaphone...and the "Powers that Be" all go into full retreat if you have a full PA system set up during their meetings.

it's not about offering solutions jackass.

It's about making everyone aware of what's going on.

It's called an Info War. You think you can do better at making people aware then I want to see it. Until then you're just talking and complaining.

A.J. is a patriot.

He supports Dr. Paul and that's good enough for me. He has Dr. Paul on his radio program several times a month. I guess if he's good enough for Dr. Paul he's good enough for me. His radio program helps get Dr. Paul's message out to the public. If you don't like him, then just don't listen to him. He is tops in my book.

Neverquit

Get a life,,,,,,,

I don't understand all the hostility toward Alex Jones....

...so I doubt anyone is going to sway your opinion. I won't even try.

Alex Jones is abrasive and loud. I dislike megaphones as a whole.

However, I don't ever remember "Fall of the Republic" being marketed as a 'master-plan' to unscrew all that has been done in the past.

Alex Jones' career has been to drag out little known tidbits, that many hoped would remain secret, out into the light. He does so with great bluster and pompousness. However, it is up to you (me, us, etc.) to decide on what is usable and what is not.

Sure, he's pulled some idiotic things out into the light.... I'm sure you can all list the failures... but AT LEAST HE'S OUT THERE DIGGING!

Sitting back and criticizing his work or lack of a cohesive plan or not pouring the milk on your corn flakes the way you like it is rather petty, in my opinion.

I don't necessarily like him either. I don't believe everything he reports on. I've never listened to his radio show and if it wasn't for RP showing up there every once in a while I may not have known anything about him.

He is, like Jesse Ventura, a lightning rod. He speaks without pre-thought or polite filters. He says things that you have to research and decide on. He is a tool for the revolution - not the revolution itself.

I may not know the truth, but I know when I'm being lied to...

He's makin a list...he's checkin it twice.....

Well then let's make a list of solutions. (Your solutions first of course)

Then we'll debate, revise, and finalize a list. We will then send it to Alex and crew.

How about that?

How about these off the top

How about these off the top of my head.

Get involved locally, Go talk to your Sheriff and police officers and find out where they stand and educate them as to their duty to you the citizen they have sworn to protect.

Goto your local city council meetings and vote NO when Walmart and Bestbuy want to but up your town square and turn it into a parking lot.

Knock on your neighbors doors and talk to them and share ideas and thoughts and solutions you can do together as a community.

I have a whole of things Myself and many others have done and are still doing.

Now, can you answer the question I posed?

You obviously haven't read

You obviously haven't read your own thread because people, including me have listed many solutions that AJ has put forth and continually espouses. He has suggested everything you listed above many, many times over the years that I have listened to him. He has advocated to vote for, get involed and donate to Ron Paul, Rand Paul, Chuck Baldwin and many, many others. Thanks to him and his listeners many illegal drills by the military have been cancelled. His coverage of the military being used in Alabama after a shooter went on a rampage led to the Army looking into possible violations of Posse Commitatus. Below is a reprint of my original post and it is only a few examples out of many:

------
He got dozens of cities and counties to repeal the patriot act and say they'd follow the bill of rights and constitution.

http://www.infowars.com/r...

AJ was a big proponent of the 10th amendment movement and had many state representatives on to talk about their developments.

http://www.infowars.com/r...

AJ helped to make Ron Paul so popular. Many of his early supporters were people who had listened to AJ because he had Paul on as a regular guest for almost a decade.

He has guests on all the time that are activists and apart of groups that you can get involved in. I've been involved in numerous organizations thanks to them being guests on his show. One example is Citizens Council on Healthcare which is located where I live.
http://www.cchconline.org...

----------
The best way to help out RP and AJ is to stop following and become a leader!

It sounds like you've got some ideas. Nice. But...

Why have you decided that Alex Jones has to be anybody's "idea man"?

I haven't decided that at

I haven't decided that at all, when I hear people on a regular basis say that A J is our general it makes me think. Generals win or lose battles either way they have a plan of action and guide their troops with strategy as to attempt to win those battles. A J being at the front lines could do a lot of good if he just provided solutions in his show and on his dvd's.

I was just asking a simple question and still have not received a solid answer, only attacking the messenger comments not the message itself.

Neverquit, just because someone else referred to Alex that way..

...does not mean he has to play that role, or that he even has any desire to.

And no, you are not ~just asking a simple question~.

Your subsequent comments and the context in which you asked your question attest to that.

Regardless, as others have pointed out, Alex has made good suggestions and has been instrumental in exposing threats to liberty and fighting for its preservation.

So as to your statement that "A J being at the front lines could do a lot of good if he just provided solutions in his show and on his dvd's", my response is that Alex already is doing a lot of good at the front lines.

The number one solution AJ

The number one solution AJ says over and over is "look in the mirror for the solution."
