Think about a Ron Paul defeat

[Lucid American]

I use this not to instill pessimism but urgency.

My wife and I had a talk the other day about her concerns that I was too wrapped up in Ron Paul, and it gave me an open door to explain to her why that was so.

I explained to her that I'm doing everything I can to contain my support for him, because I think his success is critical at this time in our nation's history.

She asked what I thought would happen if he loses . . . what my fear is.

My fear is that whomever is elected will just pursue the same arrogant foreign policy we've descended down over the last half century. At home, the non-Paul president will just continue to either raise taxes or bankrupt our nation in the same cycle we've been going down.

And my last, greatest fear is that another Ron Paul will not be had peacefully. Ron Paul is someone the establishment never thought could gain any traction, and that he has only has highlighted areas that will need to be "secured" going forward -- i.e. internet regulation, etc..

She's since watched his interview with Beck & Russert, and she seems less concerned -- or perhaps just more understanding -- about my sense of urgency. That's a start, I guess.

Anyone else believe that if Paul doesn't win, we're in for it?

I am on break at work, so I can't address this at full force. I will say what is on my mind later on, off work.

The currency thing scares me but I don't think Ron Paul is the last hope before collapse. The most promising thing for many in the liberty movement is that the revolution seems to have started. It may take many more years to be realized. Ron Paul is the current standard bearer but we have to pick it up and move forward if he falls.

Of course I'm incredibly worried about a possibility of an RP loss, and so should everyone else be. I'm saying now that if Giuliani becomes our next president I will leave the country. I'm dead serious. We cannot afford to have another jackass for president. Our liberty and perhaps our lives are at stake here. What just happened in Pakistan scares me to death.

No joke - I am leaving as well. But I will take it further by saying that if ANYONE but Ron wins I am leaving. I already have made my plans and will be prepared to move everything out of country December 2008.

Add me to the list.

If the sheep aren't behind Ron Paul then he cannot be president.

Unfortunately Ron Paul's fate rests with the media as this is the only medium the sheep have to make their choice.

Whether or not the media change their attitude to Ron Paul if supporters are able to take advantage of the low turnouts in the early primary's and he places well, who knows. It's extremely unlikely the media will ever dance to a different tune when you look at the financiers.

I would not consider leaving for two reasons. First I could not afford to, I am invested in my land, and could not sell it for enough to make a move.
Second, there is no place to go. As the globalists take over, and every place on this planet will be under there control.
I will join the resistance, Hell, I am the resistance.

Second, there is no place to go.

That's exactly right.

Hell, if not America, then where?

As far as I'm concerned, America is still the best (if not only) hope for the world.

Switzerland, the classic neutral country.

I agree, but Ron Paul is a special person with the record to stand on, and the time is now.

Switzerland doesn't welcome "auslanders" with open arms. That's why they have it so good. Small homogeneous society.

Yeah, but even if he loses, congress in next. This movement is a jolt of freshness to an archaic system.

It's make or break, but the break will be a dictatorship which the american people would simply revolt against.

Well, it's still a reasonable option for me, considering I grew up there.

I hear New Zealand is nice, too (although a pain in the arse to get citizenship).

It's all very well to say you will leave. I'm am considering leaving the UK too because things are so bad here. We are now part of the United Socialist Republic of Europe......and it absolutely stinks

Thing is.........

Where will you go?

You see, there isn't anywhere left of the planet that can be defined as a free society. So you're better off staying in America and fighting to take your country back.......even if you have to bear arms to do it.

America is the last refuge. It is the final lynchpin. If America falls to the dark forces of socialism, it will all be over.......for everyone.

Americans will have to abandon fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and fight for their own freedom.
