I was not planning on going to D.C. on the 15th for the Tax Day Rally. I figured it would be better to wait until Dr. Paul gave a date and go then.
But, I just heard Linda Hunnicutt on Ron Paul Revolution Radio. She said something that struck me very much. She was talking about the 2 different kinds of Ron Paul supporters. There's the people who are willing to do a lot on the internet, and talk a lot of talk about supporting Ron Paul, but they are not willing to actually engage in public for it. Then there are the supporters like herself, and most of us on here, that are willing to sacrifice time and money and sleep and so on...
So basically we have the people who are sold-out %100. The people who've taken the "Red Pill" and can not go back to drifting through life as if they were asleep. Then there's the people who are about 50% dedicated. They will do some things. They will give some time, when it's not too inconvenient, but when it comes down to making real sacrifices they do not see the need to do so.
For the 50% dedicated supporter its all just about Ron Paul. But for the 100% dedicated supporter it is NOT about Ron Paul. It's about freedom. It's about his message. So, as I was thinking about which one I was, I saw myself as being more like the 50% supporter. I didn't want to join The Granny Warrior on the 15th because I figured:
A) There would not be as many people there.
B) It would not be worth it for the money and time spent.
C) It was too big an inconvenience.
I realized that I was thinking a lot like those people who say "I would vote for Ron Paul but he can't win". If everyone who said that had voted for him he'd be doing A LOT better right? Same in this situation.
Here is an old woman who has taken the initiative to organize a rally as one of many last ditch efforts to save America from becoming a police state and tyrannical world empire. She understands that we are RUNNING OUT OF TIME! We must act now, in bold ways! It is situations like this, which tell us how dedicated we are. Are we dedicated enough to go up to Washington on the 15th and then AGAIN in the summer with Dr. Paul? Are we dedicated enough to do even MORE than that? Well, I'm trying to be that dedicated. I'm trying to walk the walk. This is my future that's on the line. I have a county that's hanging in the balance, so I see no point in fighting only at 50%.
I'm going to D.C. on April 15th AND in the summer - - Is anyone else?
