RON
"THE POSEUR" PAUL
NOT CONVINCED OF HIS OWN CONVICTIONS
By: Nathanael
This writer, like
millions of others, was caught up and emotionally invested in his candidacy. Ron Paul
seemed to be a man who took his oath of office seriously, was fully committed to the rule
of law and restoration of the Constitution. He knew that the odds were high, the battle
uphill the whole way, the personal costs to be heavy and the scorn of many guaranteed.
Supplanting the socialist FedGov tyranny of well over 100 years would be nothing less than
a fight to the end, to the last day, to exhaustion.
The ending, not suspending, of the Ron Paul campaign came
this past week. The MainStreamMedia gave fringe acknowledgement of the man and the message
that had struck fear in their hearts and of its controllers.
Was the media biased against his
voice of reason and truth? Absolutely.
Was Ron Paul the victim of voter
fraud? More than likely.
Should he have expected a fair fight
from the entrenched criminal two-party system? Of course not, as was demonstrated by the
early 2008 RP interview by Larry King (The
candidate they made go away - Shot but not aired on CNN). This intentional
marginalization by the MSM was foretold by the parallel treatment received by Larry Agran
in his 1992 candidacy for the Democratic Party nomination (How to make a candidate disappear
from the movie "Spin").
The Ron Paul 2008 campaign made fund
raising history on many occasions even to the creation of a new political term, the money
bomb. Much of the money raising was accomplished by independent individuals who were not
even members of the official campaign. Where did all of the $ 33 million raised during
the campaign go? Why was there no effort to spend some Big Bucks and go over the heads
of the MSM with national TV ads countering the lies and gross misrepresentation made by so
called pundits?
The informative and leading edge
liberty/libertarian/paleo-conservative site www.LewRockwell.com
was so supportive of the candidacy that it had to change its organizational
structure for tax reasons and federal campaign regulations.
Ron Paul’s campaign footprint on
the Internet and youtube are legendary, out stripping the combined effectiveness of all
other candidates. He had hundreds of MeetUp groups spontaneously pop up all over the
country, Europe and across the globe. An excellent example of the gripping
and independently created youtube videos can be viewed here - America, have you
forgotten history? (Ron Paul 2008). This particular one includes his classic
confrontation with Huckabee over the illegal Iraq war and RP’s debate proclamation that he is the
“Champion of the Constitution”. |
But Ron Paul has quit
the campaign. He left the field of battle with powerful Constitutional weapons unused. But
hey, he had no chance to win the nomination, right? That is the conventional wisdom. As
others have done, he could have suspended it just in case the unexpected happens.
Another recent development questions
the sincerity of his presidential campaign. RP had time to write a bestselling book, The Revolution: A Manifesto, while running for
president and he has
another book in the works. The national GOP convention is months away and he finished
one book on political philosophy and has another in process. Huh? These would be more than
welcome afterwards, but this is another example of RP not having his focus on capturing
the nomination?
With the closing of his campaign, RP
has very slickly shifted the remaining $4.7 million of campaign contributions into a new
advocacy organization known as The Campaign
for Liberty. Did you contribute to fund his political action organization or for to
him to become president?
It is time to face the gross failures
of his campaign. It is fact and not fiction that Ron Paul...
·
Shirked his duty to the American people and violated his oath of
office by not pursuing criminal indictments against the war criminal and traitor GWBush.
(Click here, here, here and here.)
·
Did nothing to pursue the reality of McCain being disqualified
under the Constitution to be president. (Click here and here.)
·
Publicly denied the obvious, root cause and core reality of
America's neo-con attempt at global hegemony, that 911 is provably an inside job or false
flag used to mind warp the American People into supporting baseless global war. (Click here, here, here and here.)
Every life needlessly spent in Iraq and Afghanistan (American and
otherwise) has been wasted in criminal wars. Regardless of how much he spoke about it, Ron
Paul did not do what he should and
could have done towards ending the Middle East wars.
The current political environment as
demonstrated by …
·
The awakening of the public mind as shown by the millions of
dollars given to the RP campaign;
·
The artificially induced economic stress causing millions to
re-evaluate their personal situation and for the first time realizing the criminality of
the Federal Reserve and fiat money system;
·
The majority of America wanting out of Iraq and Afghanistan immediately; and
·
The major party choices being a fascist-warmonger (John the
McCainiac) or a communist-warmonger, (Barack Insane O'Bomb-em) who is also constitutionally
disqualified.
Begged for bold truths to be declared
in the public forums, the floor of Congress, national media and the internet without
ceasing, along with the requisite filing of federal criminal complaints against GWBush in US District Courts. This pregnant a
mix for peaceful re-awakening the republic of republics may not come again.
The premature ending of his campaign
punctuates his candidacy as having been a hollow fraud. Ron Paul took early retirement in
the ivory tower as a political philosopher with permanent observer status, which was his
apparent goal from inception. See James 4:17 and Galatians 4:16.
