Dear Martin or Customer Support Representative,

I am ashamed to have received such an email from Money and Markets. Martin Weiss has been a house-hold name for my family for nearly 8 years because of his understanding of our financial and monetary systems. He has given us great insight into the troubles that face our US and Global economies long before anyone else will admit they "may" be present. He has been a part of my personal life by allowing me to work directly with his staff on ideas for investing. And he has been a part of the lives of some of my friends, I was able to formally meet he and his wife at a wedding.

I say all of that because his email about Obama, McCain is Horrendous!! I wouldn't like it if he promoted Romney or Hilary or even Huckabee!

The only person that is running for President who has done and will do anything about our Financial system is RON PAUL!!! He is the only candidate that understands SOUND MONEY! He is the ONLY CANDIDATE on the FINANCE COMMITEE of the U.S. House of Representatives. He is the ONLY CANDIDATE to call out Bernanke, EVER!

I ask Martain to immediately put an email together concerning RON PAUL's Candidacy because of his knowledge of Financial and Monetary systems in our world. http://www.ronpaullibrary...

Yours in Financial Freedom,

Martin Weiss' message below:

Barack Obama, John McCain and Tough Times
by Martin D. Weiss, Ph.D.
Dear Francisco,

I was born in 1946, the year that ended a half century of financial turbulence and began a new era of financial stability.
Had I not been mentored so closely by my father, the only person I know who predicted the banking panic of the 1930s, I would never have learned the true meaning of rampant deflation.
And had I not been raised in Brazil from the age of six, a country that repeatedly destroyed its own currency, I would never have witnessed the real impact of rampant inflation.
Today, thanks to those two life experiences, I am not complacent about the intense economic dangers we face. I have little tolerance for business as usual in Washington. And, unlike many of my generation going to the polls tomorrow, I do not underestimate the urgent need for unwavering leadership in the face of economic adversity.
I've seen what it takes to lead a nation through the landmines of an economic crisis. Like in war, the commander in chief needs to make choices that can often be very unpopular in the short term. And like in war, firing the big guns too soon may merely cause an avoidable escalation.
Plus, I've analyzed the proposals of every viable candidate for president — regarding the federal budget, the dollar, the economy and more. My conclusions:
Neither Barack Obama nor John McCain is fully prepared for what lies ahead. No one is.
But in the unusual twists and turns of their earlier life trajectories, I see the roots of moral fiber and the building blocks of personal fortitude that will be absolutely essential in the next four years.
Barack Obama experienced, first hand, the hardships of a third world country, the pain of parental separation and the daily challenges of growing up in a society still adjusting to a new multiracial identity. As president, tough economic times will not shake him.
John McCain was prisoner of war for five and a half years. He suffered prolonged isolation, torture and psychological abuse for a period longer than the term of an American president. Any duress during an economic crisis will be mild by comparison.
My personal recommendations:
If you vote Republican, choose John McCain. Steve Forbes, the nation's leading proponent of tax reform, says "John McCain's pro-growth plan to cut taxes, stop wasteful spending and reform our healthcare system will secure our nation's prosperity for generations to come."
If you vote Democratic, go for Barack Obama. Former Fed Chairman Paul Volcker, the leading inflation fighter of our era, says that “it is only Barack Obama, in his person, in his ideas, in his ability to understand and to articulate both our needs and our hopes that provides the potential for strong and fresh leadership."
And if you're independent, vote for the person you feel is least prone to buckle under the weight of falling popularity, the most willing to ultimately defend the U.S. dollar, and the best able to steer us safely down the narrow middle road between rampant deflation and rampant inflation.
Best wishes,
Martin

Martin D. Weiss

I don`t know why he does not endorse Ron Paul, but a man who has a speech like that is no CFR-member or elitist for sure:

This Might Sound Odd

I've been doing this for so long that I can read the names and tell if they are good or bad. I know....illogical and not to supercede research, but I get a bad feeling about that name you mentioned.

Me Again

I also get a bad feeling about one of the people that RP is endorsing for office, but it would be unprofessional to mention that based on my intuition alone. However, I'll send an email to myself so when it turns out he's the enemy, I can prove it.

Me Again, Again

I'll bet many of you know who I'm talking about. No evidence, just something he exudes.

Is Martin Weiss a CFR member??

was just wondering if this is the same M Weiss http://www.cfr.org/public...

I am reading 'The Shadows of Power' by James Perloff. It becomes fairly clear that those who are anti Ron Paul are somehow related to CFR.

That book sure is another eye opener.

a monetary guru who knows what he's talking about

Check out Richard Maybury's Early Warning Report
He's been talking about all this stuff for years.

*****Martin Weis is the enemy!*****

One of the side benefits of this campaign year has been the opportunity to find out who is truly one of us and who is one of THEM.
Regardless of anything they may have said or done in the past, anyone (and I do me in anyone) who endorses John McCain should never be trusted again.
This is especially true at this stage of the campaign when there are only three Republican candidates and there are no excuses for ignoring Ron Paul.
Even if a person of influence considered a vote for Ron Paul to be a wasted vote, he should still mention him as his first choice and then endorse someone else citing the reason of electability.
There is no excuse for the type of endorsement given by Martin Weiss.
Since it cannot be stupidity, his motives must be evil.
Never again trust this man about anything.

Exactly

I said all of the above when I sent my email to unsubscribe to Martin. I'd love to know what kind of blowback he got from his endorsement

Somewhat related

I searched google for news on Ron Paul today and came across a story about a fundraiser for Feb 7 that was emulating Ron Paul money bombs, but for the Republican Party instead, organized by some "webguru". I will not mention the site since I found it offensive that they too excluded Ron Paul.

When I went to the site they had the option to donate to them for later use against Hillary, or to one of the candidates, except they only listed Romney, McHoro, and Ayatolla Huckabee as the candidates; no Ron Paul. I had to laugh that by 8:00AM they had only received $225 from a total of 3 donors.

Those in power at the Republican Party are driving the bus toward a cliff at 80MPH.

Which webguru?

I'm one too. (self annointed) if it is someone I know I will give them an earful.

Not only that...

I'll start a campaign showing how they supress free speech!

Explanation

Obama and all other candidates received big donation from the big wall street banks. It's a dog and pony show man. All of them, republicans and democrats are the same except Ron Paul. Ron Paul's donation is from US Navy, US Air Force, US Army, Microsoft and Google's employees.

Check it at MONEY WEB below:

Pressured to exclude RP?

I wonder who leaned on him (or how much they paid him) to exclude Ron Paul. Considering the elite world players' vast wealth capturing system and plans for total control that would be threatened by a Ron Paul presidency, I can easily imagine such a carrot-and/or-stick approach.

You know my husband gets his

You know my husband gets his emails and I read 1 out of every 5 that has an interesting sounding title. I was always wondering about his presidential choice and figured that Martin was smart enough to support RP but was just trying to remain unpolitical by not mentioning him. Now I know he has sold out. Martin may be an infomercial financial salesman these days but he is not stupid. He has lost all of my respect and I will not ever consider anything he recommends. Thanks for posting this since I might have missed this one. I will send him an e-mail but only to tell him he's completely lost credibility.

Money & Markets on what planet?

When I received the newsletter today I was horrified! Below is the email I sent to Martin Weiss:

As a subscriber to Money and Markets, I was livid today when I received Martin’s transparent endorsement of 2 candidates and NO mention of the ONLY candidate with courage enough to address our failed monetary policy. Ron Paul understands sound money policy and the economy better than ANY of the other candidates.

I fail to understand why Martin thinks either candidate he endorsed has the knowledge to deal effectively with the HUGE budget deficit (a.k.a. mortgaged future of our children) because both candidates are part of the problem.

The only solution to the financial “black hole’ the USA faces is drastic reduction of federal spending and dramatic reduction of over bloated government programs and the ONLY candidate with the courage to even talk about real solutions is Dr. Paul.

Apparently Martin has no problem with his tax dollars being spent to murder hundreds of thousands more innocent children in John McCain’s 100 year war. Or, perhaps he likes sinking the republic further into the financial abyss with Obama’s lofty $287 billion “change” plan. If you have carefully analyzed the candidate’s proposals, then tell me where’s the money going to come from Martin?

I will cancel my Money & Markets newsletter and direct everyone I know to do the same. I can’t imagine taking financial advice from someone who does not see that Obama and McCain are just “more of the same” political hacks that got us into this mess in the first place.

Guru?

This guys advice is out of touch with reality. I wouldn't waste my time with him.

Jim Rogers is a better endorsement for Ron Paul

Jim Rogers, the finest investor of modern times endorses Ron Paul and he usually hates all politicians. Weiss is a joke next to Jim Rogers.

Wait, is he writing about

Wait, is he writing about the same McCain who stated “The issue of economics is not something I’ve understood as well as I should, I’ve got Greenspan’s book.” ???

I'm not surprised by another

I'm not surprised by another guy in the media eye ignoring Ron Paul. Hope we can get him to see the light.

McCain a dolt on the economy

Isn't John McCain the guy who wants 0% interest rates?? And also who said he wasn't qualified to answer a question on whether the Fed has lowered interest rates enough??

This guy knows nothing of economic and monetary policy. Heaven forbid he wins the nomination.

This guy is bought and paid for.

...because no real "monetary guru" would waste a paragraph touting the merits of a socialist tyrant like Obama. That he hasn't mentioned Ron Paul is a relative non-issue.

You saw it; in the recent MTV dialogue, Obama said he won't institute a draft "because we don't need one," not because it's anathema to liberty. He bought the votes of those students by telling them he'd give each one of them $4000. He's promised it time and time again: he's going to redistribute wealth (even more). He's going to repeal the tax cuts that helped us climb out of the last recession just as we're heading into another recession.

This financial genius didn't have the cojones to say "Ron Paul is the only R and all the D's are clowns." If he had been a RP supporter and thought he would lose clients by mentioning that, I would have understood his silence. But here's how he'll respond to your letter: "Ron Paul is not a viable candidate." And by that, he will have made himself part of the problem.

done
