Thanks for that inspiring read, but life is not good when the decorum of easily led, and underdeveloped malingerers is mistaken for clarity.

I, require the utmost clarification. (heh)
 
My apologies for being a complete piss-head.

I'll put my over-bearing ass to bed.
 
I cried when I heard RP speak, and I cried when I read that.

humility will get you everywhere, it got me off my butt.
 
I sometimes wonder if Ron Paul knows that he was created for this very reason. I mean, I know his life has many many plusses, and I know his lives and strives for his family. I also know that he was meant to do this. His whole life dedication was brought to this point. He is going to win. I have complete faith that we can change the course of history, we must keep on it though. The reason why you are feeling this way is because there is the next step that no one even talks about, but we all know, deep down. Our founders made their case for freedom and stood up against the empire that binded them and our founders cut that bondage. We have to be willing to do the same, but we have to try our asses off to make sure it does not come to that. Ron Paul is amazing and IS a founder as well. He was born in our time to lead us, who still believe in what started this country. He is a clear voice among noise and he draws people in. This is a movement. Good always triumphs over evil and it will prevail this time. We all know now what we are dealing with and we are all staring at the machine. The question is, are we willing to, if every reasonable possible way to do this peacefully is exhausted, are we willing to take the advice of our founders? That is what gives me pause about this whole thing. Are we all really in this to the end? Am I really in this to the end? We have to decide this, because it is not over until we say. We have a right, a God given right to be free and we have been instructed by our founders to secure that right and we have also been given a way to do so legally. I don't know, I am just babbling, kinda. I am sure you all get my drift. I understand getting burned out though. I pray for strength and courage.
 
Hello Folks,

When I read BLS's original post, I connected.

I am Canadian. My first encounter with Ron Paul, pre 9/11, was when I read his speeches here.

I thought ... wow. Just wow. There IS a voice of reason, integrity, and accuracy in Congress! Imagine! I thought to myself, "No one must be listening. For if they were, this man would be silenced (I studied the Kennedy assassination - so you know what I was thinking)

Our politicians say, "Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing!", but think, "As long as no-one is listening.".

Then 9/11 happened. I remember standing in the cafeteria at work where 50 people or so were gathered around the big-screen TV. I watched in horror like most that day. However, something in the back of my mind was saying, "Now we're going to get big government.". I then realized I said it out loud. Someone turned to me and said, "What the f*** are you talking about?!?!". I left.

Since that horrible day, I watched in nausea what the government (Canada's as well) was staging. The new departments being created. Restrictive protocols. The Patriot Act. No-fly lists. The dot-com / real estate bubbles. Out of control inflation. Deficits. The death of Iraqis and Americans where the Administration lied to exploit the anger of its citizens by declaring a war that had nothing to do with 9/11. The Afghanistan debacle - all this money and they can't find a guy in a cave?!?! They could have just issued a 500 million dollar bounty to have his people turn him in.

And all through this, I kept reading Ron Paul's speeches to Congress. He was the lone voice of reason and sanity throughout all of this.

When I found out he was running for President, I yelled a great big "Whoo-Hoo!!!" in my house. I then had tears in my eyes. I had this strange feeling - only later did I realize it was HOPE.

I explained who RP is and what his message was to my wife. She is not political in general and a pretty good critical thinker. She converted immediately. She is not as passionate as me, but she understands why I am. I think that's why she understood when I paid real money to run a Facebook ad for the Nov 5th event, even though I am Canadian.

I told her that I if we didn't have small kids, I would have taken a sabbatical from work and walked the Canadian/American border to raise money and awareness for Ron Paul, as I cannot vote or donate. If any of you reading this knows who Terry Fox was, I would have called my walk, "The Marathon of Hope V2.0".

People throughout the entire world are learning and watching.

I agree with you BLS. I know the feeling. Ron Paul cured my apathy.
 
And remember--maxing out doesn't need to happen in 1 day. self + spouse are in for the long haul! Thanx for the post--good job!
