Yes I can smell it....sniff..sniff..fear and victory...
The tide has turned and the dam will burst!!!!!!!
Love and reason will prevail over evil as the most story's go...but the fight will be long and the brave and vigilant must be steadfast in their resolve...
Remember what Ron has talked about all the time...the battle is a long time project and he need YOU as a delegate.
As Sam said in The Lord of the Rings to Frodo´s question :
why do we keep on fighting ?
"Because there is some good in the world, and it is worth fighting for."

We walk in the valley
of death and will fear no evil.
It's our country
The steal from us every chance they get...
They enslave us for their gain...
They lord over us and believe they are the superior 'chosen'...
Don't you think it's time we made government a bit more representative of 'We the people'?
Get involved. There's way more of us then there are of 'them'.

re gun control:
...Here in Los Angeles during the Rodney Kings riots, when 55 people died, only the store owners who had guns were able to protect their places from being entirely wiped out by the looters.
Now, I've been warned .... to buy a weapon and get training because when we are fully engaged in the upcoming fiscal tsunami, it is going to get ugly. Many people who are here illegally and on social programs will be angry and revolt when they are cut off from services, and citizens must be able to protect themselves.

One of the best scenes EVER! God, I wish everyone here would watch that or try to incorporate it into a Ron Paul video. Just wonderful !
Here...
I am handing you a tissue : )

Your line was JUST NOW quoted on RonPaulRadio by Dr. Steve, after giving a 2 hour explanation of the delegate process! It was how he just ended his presentation.
~Thank you so much for giving him inspiration!
ohh LOL.... well Sam said it
ohh LOL.... well Sam said it best... :) it´s a gripping moment in the movie..
m72mc...I just read your last reply below....
Wanted to contact you via email...I noticed you've been a dailypaul member just a little less than I have...but there is no contact email with your info. I am continuing here because my post below was getting too skinny!

re gun control:
I used to be a liberal democrat and I, like you, have also been reconsidering all my opinions on the issues, like gun control and abortion, since discovering Dr. Paul.
I was going to send you an email on A History of Gun Control (shows worldwide how a country's people are suppressed when guns are confiscated). It certainly changed my opinion to being pro gun. I will start a separate forum on that.
Here in Los Angeles during the Rodney Kings riots, when 55 people died, only the store owners who had guns were able to protect their places from being entirely wiped out by the looters.
Now, I've been warned by an author friend to buy a weapon and get training because when we are fully engaged in the upcoming fiscal tsunami, it is going to get ugly. Many people who are here illegally and on social programs will be angry and revolt when they are cut off from services, and citizens must be able to protect themselves.

re American foreign policy and war:
I found these to be extremely helpful articles in pointing out how the Republican party has been neoconned. I use it to quickly point out the general differences, between the two groups....aids in explaining how American foreign policy has became even more of an aberration (i.e. "neo-conization".)

re abortion:
This is a controversial, yet thought-provoking article. Women of western culture may have won the battle for equality, but we may lose the war for western civiilization if we do not start to cherish the family concept and reproduce. ("protect the genetic instructions" as my brilliant elderly Russian engineer/neighbor implored his son.) I have certainly found many intelligent and fascinating people here at the dailypaul and hope some of them are getting busy producing little r3VOLutionaries! Follow our leader's example...thank God for the Paul family! ;-)

thanks..sec I´ll add email
thanks..sec I´ll add email in my contact info...I disabled it some time ago...but I reactivate it now...
I don´t have a gun. I used some when I was in the marines, but I feel no desire to have one here. If I start hunting I might get a permit and a gun, but I´m not so fond of shooting things.
There´s just this thing about guns...If comparing deaths per year in shootings or accidental shootings america vs sweden, you can see, here we have almost none. Nah, I´m not saying you should ban guns, dr paul explained it so well...but at least it´s something to think about.
thanks ...just sent you an email ~
btw, I'm a vegetarian and would never shoot an animal. A gun would just be for self protection. I would actually be happiest if there were no guns in the world, but as long as the government has guns, the citizens should have them. As far as owning a gun, Dr. Paul does not own one either, but knows we need them to guard against tyranny.
Thanks for the link to Alan Stang's article
Playboy and Women. He has such a way of adding humor to a serious, well thought out article.
Oh,
that was written by Stang? I'm going back to read that. I never miss a Stang article if I can help it.
welcome aboard photo.
welcome aboard photo. firearms are the tool of self preservation... they are not evil or wicked.. the old saying goes.. if guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns! you need to learn which type of firearm you need and how to use it!
as for me and my home, we shall worship the LORD
ha...i was thinking about you, sierrahpbt when i was writing...
!
thanks...what do you suggest as far as weaponry...
and I can practice at the nearby LA police academy.
I don't have a gun
But I don't want anyone to know that.

Great motivating thread
thanks for posting.
THINK ABOUT THIS....
As of last night more new people heard about Ron Paul in a non-biased manner than have ever heard of him before(except the debates, perhaps)
I mean at least10-20 million people heard his message, and I imagine a couple million have since visited his website since his interview on COAST-TO -COAST AM.....
WITH HIM SPEAKING AT THE NEVADA STATE GOP CONVENTION, AND WITH HIS BOOK COMING OUT, WHERE 10'S OF MILLIONS OR MORE WILL READ ABOUT HIM AND HIS POLICIES OF TRUTH AND LIBERTY.....WE SHALL CONVERT HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS , IF NOT MILLIONS OF NEW PEOPLE TO THIS MOVEMENT......
......THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING
He is speaking
In Austin at a rally to stop the Trilateral Corridor next Saturday 5th at noonish. That should be very productive.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken:
The crownless again shall be king.

RON PAUL: Bursting the dam!
http://www.youtube.com/wa...
Yes, it´s a great video.
Yes, it´s a great video. Though that guy lives in Norway, our neighboring country. Actually once we had a union.
Here´s a map
http://www.google.se/imgr...
Actually...
I was just wondering if I remembered correctly where you lived.
I always love it when I read posts from European supporters. When we face some political challenge or unfairness by the media and want to lick our wounds, we get told to buck up....European RP supporter posts usually have the tone of, "what you're going through is nothing! Knock it off! Get back out there and fight!"
:-)
Yes you remembered correct.
Yes you remembered correct. Yes we like to encourage you. But me, like almost everyone here has friends or relatives who live in the US. About a third of our population left Sweden to live there, so it´s no wonder, some of us are interested in your country.
Why have so many left Sweden...
...what is your health care system like, and what does your country think about Ron Paul and the other candidates? I know I asked a lot of questions...you can be brief! Thanks. (p.s. great map)
1. We have very high taxes,
1. We have very high taxes, so heath care is mostly paid by that. We don´t pay much when we see a doctor or for medication. Of course we still pay for it by taxes. Though America is so much bigger and has a different history, so it might not work out the same for you, even if you tried.
2. Ron Paul, well, it´s the same as over in the US, not much is mentioned in the msm. Generally most favor the democrats. Think of it this way, our conservatives are more like your democrats, politics wise.
Our major parties are
Socialdemokraterna (social democrats ) biggest party
Moderaterna (conservatives) second biggest
Folkpartiet (Liberal party)
Centerpartiet (farmer party)
Vänsterpartiet (kommunists)
Miljöpartiet (green party)
A plethora of smaller parties
Right now, the conservatives rules in coalition with the liberals and farmer party
I would guess, most here like Obama the best. One thing though, we don´t like pro war talk, that´s very important over here, though not many are enlightened to Ron Paul.
3. Most people left Sweden a long time ago, it was much poverty back then, in the 1800´s.
This is a really good movie about some that left back then, and very famous, at least over here. I don´t know if there is a version with English text, but I would hope so.
http://www.imdb.com/title...
Some left later also, my grandfathers brother left in the 1940´s and settled in Arizona.
Wow
My great great grandfather came from Sweden in the late 1800's, we found his boat ticket in some stuff of my grandfather's when he passed away. He settled in Duluth Minnesota, his name was Swan Anderson. Hopefully I spelled that correctly, as I am going off memory. That is so cool to find out the possible reason why he moved here! I will pass it on to my Mom, as it was her grandmother's father.
it was probably Sven
it was probably Sven Anderson.
Swan is not a Swedish name, but Sven is very common and Anderson is the most common last name I think or at least top 5.
You should really watch the Emigrants and the sequel. It´s a moving movie and about their hardships, both in Sweden and America.
English Titles
The movie came out here as "The Emigrants" . A follow up movie about the Swedish family's struggle is "The New Land" Both very good with subtitles.
Great reply...
...one last question...do your people like your healthcare system with the high taxes...and would a Ron Paul approach to heathcare work over there?
I do not think without a
I do not think without a collapse of the system, that the people would accept that, maybe a slow gradual shift. The reason it became this way, was because, in the 1930´s, the people was very poor. That gave rise to the social democrats, which since then has ruled most of the time. Since the system works pretty well for our small country ( 9 million inhabitants, less than New York ? LOL ) there is not much reason to change it. But as I said a slow shift is more likely.
There is a strong sentiment here that everyone should be equal. As long as the majority feels this way, I doubt it could change.
Though also remember, we don´t spend much on wars or the military, so it´s a bit hard to compare, right off the bat.
Okay, thank you SO much...
for your careful, patient explanations...
and I will rent "The Emigrants"! I remember it being a highly acclaimed film...Good night or whatever it is there, m32mc!
a thought to sleep for us to sleep on that was was just posted in another forum ~
Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness, concerning all acts of initiative [and creation]. There is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans; that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way.
Whatever you can do or dream, you can begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now.

The tide has turned...
:) np
Also had to add this for an example.
I discovered about Ron Paul last summer, when I was listening to Alex Jones, I like listening to him, cause usually I get the news before they brake in the msm, then. LOL
The first thing that got me hooked, was his anti-war stance, but as he explains things I have come to understand many things a lot better and on some issues he outright has converted me, by his brilliant rhetoric. Or almost anyway. Like Guns and abortion. Here we don´t have guns unless you are a hunter, and I would not like to have one, but I understand now, why your founders wrote it in your constitution. Used to be pro abortion, now I am not so sure.
He explains the economy so good also, and the economy works the same, wherever you are and it´s such an important issue. Whatever happens with the US economy will affect us over here also.
But the biggest thing for me that overshadows all other things, is the war issue. How did America become a nation that invades other countries and start aggressive wars. I had always though that would be for regimes like, the German Third Reich or other rogue nations.
