The fight for freedom has to be renewed each generation. - Ronald Reagan, 2008-04-29
Ronald Reagan told us that the fight for freedom had to be renewed each generation. We are taking him seriously!
Ron Paul is to Washington what Dave Ramsey is to personal finance.
This movement is no longer about electing Ron Paul President. It is about bringing the Republican party and our country back to conservative values.
Most Ron Paul supporters are hard core conservatives who believe in limited Federal government, lower taxes, less regulation and a protection of our rights as spelled out in the Constitution bill of rights.
Maybe I am just here clinging to my bible and guns. or Maybe the Republican party leadership should embrace Ron Paul supporters and focus their ire on the objective of keeping Hillary or Obama from derailing our country.
This new book explains the common sense values Ron Paul advocates. His
stand on economic and freedom issues parallel Ronald
Reagan and Barry Goldwater. That is my kind of Republican Party.
The Ron Paul revolution won't stop after the state conventions, the
Republican National Convention, or the November election. Reversing the
trend of big government and lost freedoms is a big task and it will take
more than one election.
Barry Goldwater's Presidential campaign started the movement that ultimately resulted in Ronald Reagan's election in 1980.
Bill Clinton's booming economy was a direct result of Ronald Reagan's
economic policies.
I am proud to be a Ron Paul Republican and continue to fight for American
values of freedom.
On with the Revolution

Let's Get Americans to Think Like Americans Again, 2008-04-29
I've bopped around libertarian and conservative circles since 1994, and to be honest, my enthusiasm for the whole ball of wax has been pretty much tapped out for the past few years. Even last year, when I first heard legendary libertarian congressman Ron Paul was running for president as a Republican, I wasn't much interested. He'll just be marginalized and ignored, if he's not outright ridiculed, I thought.
Then a wonderful thing happened. Oh, Ron Paul has been alternately marginalized, ignored, and ridiculed by the usual suspects in government and the media. But thanks to the magic of the Internet, his message has nevertheless spread far and wide among a new generation of what Albert Jay Nock called the Remnant. He's set fundraising records and ignited a bona fide political movement for liberty. I guess I'm not the only one nauseated by the grim prospect of fascist warmonger John McCain facing off against socialist warmonger Hillary Clinton for the prize of becoming Emperor of the Dolts.
And here we have Ron Paul's campaign book. Campaign books by their nature have a very short shelf life and perform no useful task (for the reader); they're written only to make the candidate sound like a normal, warm human being with ordinary goals and values instead of a creepy, reptilian politician who gets sexually aroused only by the prospect of power and money.
Needless to say, The Revolution: A Manifesto is different. Anyone who has met Ron Paul -- or even just watched him on TV -- has already figured out that he is a normal, warm human being. He has nothing to prove in that arena. Instead, he has laid out, in simple and easy-to-understand terms, the case for freedom. Not freedom in that corrupted sense that pretends this or that government program will "help" us be happy -- but real, honest-to-God, traditional American freedom FROM government, just as our Founders intended.
Away with the tax collectors. Away with the bureaucrats. Away with the regulators. Away with the babysitters and busybodies. Away with every manner of petty tax-eating loser who would presume to tell us what to do with our lives and how to do it. Ron Paul represents what I hope is not the last of a long line of Americans who know what real freedom is and embrace it. To that end, this book should help ensure others will take up the cause -- before we are all really, really sorry.
In just 167 pages, Dr. Paul lucidly expounds matters of foreign policy, economics, civil liberties, monetary policy, the Constitution, and more. He provides plenty of quotations and other support to ground what he is saying firmly in authentic American tradition. He shows how appealing and even simple the message of freedom is, even in an age like ours, where it has again become "radical" to insist on strict boundaries for government, an entity that should properly be thought of as nightsticks and jackboots, not Christmas presents and candy.
For confirmed advocates of liberty, The Revolution will not offer much they don't already know. What the book does offer is a great introduction for the average American who has become accustomed to thinking that getting permission from the government is the same thing as freedom. The Revolution has the potential to re-orient Joe Sixpack's point of view back toward American ideals and away from the statist brainwashing he received in government school. To that end, you should get as many of your friends, neighbors, and family members as possible to read this book. It really can make a difference.
Let the revolution continue!

Apathetic no more, 2008-04-29
This book serves as an excellent summary of important knowledge to any spirited young or old patriot. Thank you Dr. Ron Paul for injecting energy and hope into people of my generation (I'm 25). This work will serve as a launching pad for many strong Americans in the future. I plan on giving many as gifts!
I must also say I find great comfort in the enthusiasm that I witness everyday online and in person - fellow Ron Paul supportors are truly inspiring - lets keep it up!
The future will be ours.
