‘Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you—
Ye are many—they are few.’

—Percy Bysshe Shelly, The Mask of Anarchy

Youll like this one too.

"It was natural and perhaps human that the privileged princes of these new economic dynasties, thirsting for power, reached out for control over government itself. They created a new despotism and wrapped it in the robes of legal sanction. ...And as a result the average man once more confronts the problem that faced the Minute Man.... -- Franklin Roosevelt

These are the things obama should be saying rather than going along with it all.

I know my country has not perfected itself. At times, we've struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We've made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions.
Barack Obama

When he says that he only states the obvious. He states out loud what everyone is thinking. It causes people to think that since he is being honest about that, that then he must be an honest person. It's a game called mixing a little truth with the rest of the propaganda. All politicians do it.

He is not "crucified" for saying such things. That is an exaggeration. He is always criticized, but he is criticized for everything he does and says. That is the name of the game of politics.

The elite banksters don't much care who is elected.

His aim and ability to stop wars?? Seems that if one used deductive reasoning, one could plainly see that with the US being the world's largest weapons manufacturer AND dealer, stopping US interest/participation in wars with our presidential vote is a pipe dream.
....
No one, not Ron Paul or any other presidential wanna-be will stop wars!!!! And, I'm to be encouraged that Ron Paul supposedly has greater financial support from soldiers and other military personnel than any other candidate!?


Of course he can't stop other countries from warring, and he can't control what US companies do. I agree that the full realization of what RP advocates wrt US war is, for now, 'a pipe dream' - but how far might he shift us in the direction of that dream?

My own opinion is the only "reforms" the elites who run this country will let him make are the ones that will hurt you and me.

Social security and medicare and medicaid unemployment compensation etc etc. Those changes the corperate media and the elites will support.

The Fed and the wars will continue as long as the people will fight them because its a great way to funnel tax payer money back to the elites.

RP raises alot of good issues and I do admire him but realisticly he will never be able to take down the Fed both parties are supporting th fed no one but he is claiming it should be shut down or changed radicly, even though you and I know it should be done it wont happen.


Just like the "family values" president didnt stop abortion even though it was a major talking point and helped get him elected.

Just like Obama and healthcare what we got was almost worthless.

RP is the best candidate in a republican field of lunatics thats certain.
