The Future of Freedom Foundation (FFF) is a nonprofit advocacy group based in Fairfax, VA. Its mission is "to advance freedom by providing an uncompromising moral and economic case for individual liberty, free markets, private property, and a limited government." It is best known for its journal, Freedom Daily.
Ron Paul will receive his award at the FFF's upcoming conference, "Restoring the Republic 2008: Foreign Policy and Civil Liberties," being held June 6-8 (Friday morning through Sunday night) in Reston, VA. The award will be presented at the Friday night dinner. Dr. Paul will also speak that night, on "A Foreign Policy of Freedom."
Says FFF founder and president Jacob Hornberger: "I can't tell you how pleased we are that Ron has agreed to speak at this year's conference. At last year's conference, he and Fox News legal analyst Andrew Napolitano electrified the audience with their Sunday night talks. Since then, as everyone knows Ron has shaken the foundation of the political world with his race for the Republican presidential nomination."
New York Times columnist Stephen Kinzer (author of All the Shah's Men) and Boston University professor Andrew J. Bacevich (author of American Empire) will also speak Friday evening "in conjunction with" Dr. Paul.
The price of the 3-day event, held at the Hyatt Regency Reston, is $495, which includes all meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) during the 3 days plus admission to all 20 speeches. Those interested can register by phoning 703-934-6101 or by visiting the conference website at http://www.fff.org/conference2008/index.htm.

Ron Paul is the only candidate that has exposed the mortgage crisis , a crisis that has cost the American taxpayer a documented minimum of $200 billion in recent bail outs from the federal reserve. This excludes the debasement of our currency, the dollar. [link edited for length] To put that into perspective, the Iraq war has cost the American taxpayer $507 billion thus far. ADDITIONALLY, The total market capitalization of the stocks like Bear Stearns, CountryWide , Merrill Lynch, and CitiGroup was a massive decline in shareholder value..most of those shareholders are people just like you and I, .. holding those securities in their retirement accounts. Executives managing those financial service mills enticed and pushed legions of unscrupulous young professionals to make very bad loans to very bad credit risks on very illiquid properties. Those money brokers were given fat commissions. Those executives pushed their stock prices and the leveraged stock options to highly inflated and false prices based on phony , inflated and unsustainable earnings. Those executives knew that they were creating a pyramid scheme and were acting in bad faith. [link edited for length] The federal reserve continued to print money, artificially hold interest rates low, very low and debase the currency since 2002 to create liquidity for their buddies in the banking and brokerage industry.. Now that the currency has been debased 40 to 60 % ,yours and my entire net worth and purchasing power has also been debased because it was all done with borrowed money. Remember , these banker / broker types did their dirty work while America was at war. [link edited for length] Now that egregious and irreparable harm has been done to the American economy by the Ponzi schemers on Wall Street and the banking industry, they are using the Chairman of the Federal Reserve to hold your attention with smoke and mirrors while they sneak out the back door with your net worth. Illustration ; A $10 million dollar ranch in the eyes of those who follow the currency markets is now a $4 to 6 million dollar ranch in the eyes of those who understand the Jihad declared on and the 6 year debasement of Americas' currency. Those responsible got off scott free and the Chairman of George Bush's Federal Reserve made good on their escape. Ron Paul is the ONLY fiscal conservative running for President
