Do not give up now! We have come too far! FACE THE FACTS! WE HAVE 8 MONTHS AND VOTERS NEED EDUCATION.

Here are the facts.

Most people have not been paying attention to politics!
People do not want a socialistic government!
People do not want war!
People do not want a Fascist government!
People do not want to lose their freedoms!
People do not want a bankrupt government!
People do not want over taxation!
Voter fraud. Prevent it from happening!
McCain will be disqualified due to birth!
Romney & Huckabee will drop out soon!
We very likely will have a brokered convention and Ron Paul will pick up the delegates!
Ron Paul is the only candidate with continuing money donations.
8 months to go. Campaign!
Ron Paul is the man. Educate!
The Ron Paul articles are written. Distribute!

HERE IS THE REVOLUTION.

Have faith, people will wake up. A lot of people still do not even know who Ron Paul is, much less what his principles are. We have 8 months to educate.

Most people have not been paying attention to politics and the evolution this government has gone thru. They just need to be made aware of the facts. Time is on our side. We have 8 months to educate.

People really do not want a Socialist for President. They do not want a young inexperienced man for president. Hillary and Obama must be exposed for what they are. Why are the "secrets" being hidden. Someone must expose them to the public for what they are. We have 8 months to educate the people.

People do not want these unconstitutional wars and occupations to continue. The people will become aware that Ron Paul will be the candidate who will get us out of undeclared wars. That means wars that the people are not behind from the start. We have 8 months to educate the people.

People do not want a fascist government! Most people do not even realize what that is. People just need education. They must be made aware of what has been done to move us toward loss of our freedoms, (while all of us were not paying attention) and why Ron Paul is the only candidate who will move us back in the right direction. We have 8 months.

People want a man of principle, who knows the constitution and economics, to be the president of the United States of America. The facts will not change. That man is Ron Paul. We have 8 months to educate America.

We must realize that it takes time to educate America. We still have 8 months. Yes, they want us to give up now. Apparently Ron Paul is not giving up. We owe him our unfettered support. He has not and will not lose, with our support.

The articles and facts about Ron Paul are already published. Everyone find a way to flood the nation with the information. Use advertisements. Use you email. Use word of mouth. Use billboards. Use the newspapers. Print and distribute. We have 8 months.

Promote blackboxvoting.org. Get people to read and assist, and let us get a system to prevent vote fraud in place and a way to film or verify all voting on election day. It can be done if enough people get behind it. We need Blackboxvoting.org to head it up. DON'T LET THEM STEAL OUR FREEDOM.

Someone must place a suit immediately to disqualify McCain from being eligible to run for President of the United States. He is clearly not qualified due to his birth status, but firm timely action must be taken now to legally disqualify him, or he will continue to run.

Keep the money support coming for Ron Paul. It has already been proven, he has massive grass roots support. don't stop now.

If we do what I profess in this article, why won't Ron Paul be president?

We must act now and not give up.

This means you and me. We have 8 months.

Just  because you end every sentence with an exclamation mark doesn't make it right.

John McCain is born of American parents, even though he was born in the Panama Canal zone.  Jus saguinis means that a citizen is such because his parents are.  The 14th Amendment controversy involves the legitimacy of jus soli, or if you're born here, you automatically get citizenship.  Some would like to do away with that for those accidentally born here.

For your other points:

  • Many people as asking for a socialist government without understanding the impact on our freedoms.
  • Those who do vote are the ones who are picking the nominees for the two major parties, regardless of general apathy
  • There is no proof that Huckabee will drop out anytime soon.  He may not have money, but he does have momentum, delegates and some popular vote. 
  • Romney has more money personally than all the Ron Paul internet bloggers.  He'll keep spending until his family tells him to stop.
  • Most people don't understand government systems.  Mussolini was loved when Italy prospered and was lynched when it all fell apart.  People will vote for fascism if it seems like the best alternative.
  • Many people support war, when their government tells them that it's in their best interest.  Popular nationalism in Europe was one of the reasons why WWI quickly spread.  People put a lot of trust in their monarchies, to their detriment.  "Defensive" war is an old excuse that works.
  • Most people don't think the government is bankrupt.  They see the lottery and they see taxes being collected.

Watching the movie The American President a few years ago, Michael Douglas' character made a stand with gun control and environment issues.  The Hollywood mentality is that these are obviously "good" positions.  His opponents were evil manipulators.   That's the thinking you're up against.

The point is that most people would rather be entertained than informed.

Huckabee wil drop out if McCain offers him a cabinet position or VP.   That would lock up the nomination.  Watch for it.

Ron Paul will have to tap into the fear over the economy and explain that only he has the solution if he wants to stay relevant in the next states.  Louisiana will need a lot of work this week.  They need your enthusiasm.

“Do not give up now! We have come too far!” 

You are right; we have come too far thanks to the right-wing warmongers and their pals the Libertarians. This Ron Paul crowd is the very same crowd who turned out in record numbers to elect and re-elect George W. Bush. Not only did you help put this imbecile in the White House, you did so with malicious delight. Well now it’s my turn. I’m retired, financially secure, and believe me, I’m watching Bushies harvest this crop of thorns they so righteously deserve with malicious delight. A guy I play golf with had to drop out of the golf club, said he was going to lose his home. I had listened to him brag about Bush winning for years. I handed him a piece of paper with an address on it. He asked, “What’s this?” I said, “It the address of the homeless shelter here in Ft. Lauderdale.” As he walked away, he looked as if he were a hundred years old. 

NEW YORK (Reuters) - In the latest example that the U.S. dollar just ain't what it used to be, some shops in New York City have begun accepting euros and other foreign currency as payment for merchandise.

 We had decided that money is money and we'll take it and just do the exchange whenever we can with our bank," Robert Chu, owner of East Village Wines, told Reuters television.

Bob Miller:

Your information may be right, but YOU are dead WRONG!! I get the sense you're delighted that your golf buddy is losing his home, and if that's the case, you're a cold-hearted man and I am concerned for your mental well-being.  Perhaps it's time to get some professional help.

Or, reach inside yourself and do what you would hope your friend would do for you – help him as much as you can. Ask others to chip in as well.  If you don't act, you're no better than the Germans who watched their Jewish neighbors being carted off to concentration camps without lifting a finger to help.

Bob Miller:

Your information may be right, but YOU and your actions are dead WRONG!!

Unless I'm missing something in the details, I get the sense you're delighted that your golf buddy is losing his home, and if that's the case, you're a cold-hearted man and I am concerned for your mental well-being.  Perhaps it's time to get some professional help.

Or, instead...  Reach inside yourself and do for your friend what you hope someone would do for you if you fell into financial trouble – help him as much as you can, despite his political leanings.  Ask others to chip in as well.

But, if you don't act, you're no better than the Germans who watched their Jewish neighbors being carted off to concentration camps without lifting a finger to help. In other words, your current stance shows you're siding WITH the very evil you claim to be against.  In Star Wars language, "You've joined 'the dark side'."

Get back into the light and show some compassion for your friend while you still have a chance.

Damn straight! ... It is irrelevant what happens at this point in the polls, the primaries, caucuses, hell even the final election – people are starting to “get it”, and Ron Paul has initiated the wake up call to revolution ! The MSM has set new standards of blatant manipulation of the “facts” as presented to the public at large, and have crossed all lines of journalistic integrity. I have to shake my head every time I see a disparaging remark or article or video against the “Paultards” as they call us .. they cannot understand something that has been lost over the years… PASSION ! HOPE ! PATRIOTISM ! .. Hell, I’m a CANADIAN and I’m fired up about the RP message !!!... I have followed this AMERICAN political event with far greater zeal than any local campaign I have ever experienced. Just take a look at the support groups and comments from other nations !! For all those who say the Ron Paul pack are crazy “tin foil hat” wearers, ok – SHOW ME THE INTERNATIONAL FAN BASE FOR *YOUR* CANDIDATE OF CHOICE !!!! I mean, if a “weirdo” can get all this attention, where is the massive support of the “right” candidate? Limited indeed. The people of the world are STARVED for the message of freedom, STARVED for a political figure who speaks with honesty, STARVED for a message of peace rather than war, STARVED for hope for the next generation. Once the people get a taste of the freedom message, they scramble, claw and scrape their way to it, in spite of the weight of disinformation piled on their shoulders by the current ilk at the control board. Ron Paul is doing his part leading the cause.. It is up to the people to carry it forward. Make the videos, post on the blogs, respond to the articles.. More importantly, for you American citizens, you have to get off the net and onto the streets !! Post the signs! Talks to your friends, canvass your neighbours.. Write your newspapers, the local TV station, the National papers! Get more elected officials into power with the Ron Paul attitude at all levels…BE ACTIVE, BE PASSIONATE!!! It doesn’t take a genius to see what is happening in the world today, the dollar is tanking, the threat of larger and more involved war is drawing ever closer, and the police state noose is closing. Being complacent is catching up to us all, it’s now or never for our generation at least, and it will be a long time coming before we see the likes of Ron Paul in the presidential race, so seize the moment !

Google "delusional paranoia", "denial of reality" , and "mental health institution" while you're at it.

As for the article, well -- every last statement you made, with the exception that Romney has dropped out, is either your personal opinion or a complete falsehood.

The people do not need you to preach at them. I've read Ron Paul's site, it reads like the pipe dreams of a 12-year old who has a fixation on Revolutionary War history. It isn't a viable platform to run on, and people understand that. If you want to blame the media, ignorance, or whatever else you can.

But the more you spread his "message", the more people will ask what they have to give up to obtain what you offer. And the reality is most people don't want what you're selling, as seen by the popular vote count.

Logical You know you havent read his platform. It is obvious to any intelligent person that FREEDOM is popluar. If you think that the MSM is not biased then who is ignorant? I agree that people dont want to pop the tit out of their mouths. The point is we dont want the tit in ours. All of you socialist scum take our freedom away from us when you give up your freedom. I understand that self reliance and responsibility can be scary for the lazy and ignorant. But come on you can do it. Dont fear responsibility, its ok. If all else fails you can always go home to mommy and daddy and put the tit back in your mouth. Go sell your garbage elsewhere, we are all full up here. OBTW communist CHINA just called and they want you to come home. LIBERTY or DEATH
