Jon Stewart Calls Out The Media For Ignoring Ron Paul

On Sunday morning, Jon Stewart woke up to a cornucopia of material to write into Monday’s program: Tim Pawlenty’s sad campaign goodbye, Rep. Michele Bachmann’s straw poll victory, Rick Perry’s vasectomy entry into the race. He somehow covered all his bases and then some tonight: finding plenty of time for the one thing the media didn’t cover: the fact that Rep. Ron Paul has emerged as a top-tier candidate in 2012.

I Like This Idea...How About 2012 Being the Year of the "Blue Republican"?

Robin Koerner wrote an amazing piece today at the Huffington Post. Whether you are a Republican, Independent, or Democrat...the primaries are the time to be a "blue republican".

Put another way, when it comes to such things as the killing of innocent people, taking from the common man to support cronies, and the elimination of the basic values that make our lives worth living, we had the hope, but we haven't had the change.

MSNBC Forgets Someone

This morning on MSNBC's Morning Joe, the topic was Republican Presidential candidate fundraising for the 2nd quarter. Here is a screenshot during the discussion. You may not know, but someone was left out.



For the record, Ron Paul was in 2nd place with an estimated total of $4.6 million. Seriously, what is it with the media blackout?

President Obama Talks Afghanistan

As I listen to President Obama talk about the troops in Afghanistan tonight, I can't help but think about Candidate Obama in 2007. At this point, it is simply impossible to believe anything the man says.





It is clear, the only person who is going to bring an end to these wars is Ron Paul.

What if the Chinese Had Military Bases In America?

As a member of Generation X, I have lived with America's current foreign policy my whole life. Constant wars (cold, undeclared, or otherwise), the propping up of dictators, ridiculous amounts of foreign aid, the constant building of American military bases (we have over 900 around the world), and "NATO" actions have all been commonplace for someone like me.

However, like many in my generation, I do not agree with these policies. What if a country like China imposed on us what we do to others? The golden rule comes to mind here. I applaud my generation for looking at things not just from the "American" viewpoint, but also seeing things through the eyes of others.

If the world is going to improve, we must look to ourselves and our own actions first.

Has Ron Paul Reached You Yet?

This video was made during the 2008 Presidential Campaign...but it is even MORE relevant for his 2012 Presidential run. We are still in two illegal wars, and we are still policing the world. We have trillions in debt, and our foreign policy is blowing up in our faces. Has Ron Paul reached you yet? For more information on Dr. Paul, go to Libertypac.com or Dailypaul.com

Stephen Colbert, Ron Paul, & Gold

Last night on the Colbert Report, the first part of the show was all about gold. Obviously, when it's time to talk gold, it's time to talk to...Ron Paul! Check out the story "Gold Faithful" at Colbert Nation...just click the picture!

I Love The Judge! Freedom Watch At Its Finest...

Great show from Judge Andrew Napolitano and the Freedom Watch crew last night. Ron Paul, Jim Rogers, FED rap videos... Who could ask for more!!! Please disregard the fact that this appears on Fox News. Even a broken clock is right twice a day...

Excuse You, Megan McArdle


"Republicans stashed him (Ron Paul) in this job because they don't want him making more important decisions. He cares passionately about monetary policy, which most Republicans don't care about. But when you look at his speeches, he doesn't understand anything about monetary policy. He might actually understand it less than the average member of Congress. My personal opinion is that he wastes all of his time on the House Financial Services Committee ranting crazily."

Megan McArdle, libertarian blogger and economics editor of the Atlantic

This quote appeared in a recent Slate.com article about Congressman Ron Paul. The "libertarian" source for their story said the above quote.

There is no possible way this woman is a libertarian...or, she has no eyes or ears. I take issue with her absolute disrespect. Watch this video from CNBC today and tell me this man doesn't know about monetary policy. I challenge you to find one other person in Congress that could talk in this much depth about monetary issues. Also, you may want to take a look at a post I wrote a few days ago The Great Recession Was Not a Surprise. My personal opinion is that you, Ms. McArdle, waste your time ranting crazily about someone you apparently know nothing about.

We've Come Along Way, Baby...

A Sunday New York Times piece called Rep. Ron Paul, G.O.P. Loner, Comes In From Cold highlighted the progress the Ron Paul movement has made in this country over the past 3 years. From being largely ignored by the media in his last presidential run to Tea Party Godfather and new Chairman of the House Subcomittee on Domestic Monetary Policy...Dr. Paul and his Campaign for Liberty have come a long way. It feels good to know the hard work is paying off. I've only been working for liberty for 3 years. Dr. Paul has been at it for nearly 40 years. His commitment to the Constitution is inspiring.

This Great Recession Was Not A Surprise

The FED. Monetary policy. Inflation. Housing Bubbles. The Recession (which began in Dec. 2007). The devalued dollar. A costly foreign policy.

Back during the 2008 Presidential race, only one candidate was talking about these things:

Ron Paul.

He was laughed at by other candidates. He was dismissed by the media. His supporters were called crazy.
But, just think of what things would be like right now in 2010 if everyone would've listened to us libertarian lunatics. But, people were too busy watching the Dow climb to 14,000 and flipping houses for thousands of dollars in profits.

This Great Recession was not a surprise. Watch these video clips from the Republican Presidential debates back in 2008. Ron Paul knew where we were then...and what was coming. Why? Because he understands monetary policy and free market economics. Please ignore the fact that Glenn Beck is in the first clip...that was from CNN in 2007. He wasn't the "Glenn Beck of Fox News".



Luckily, there is a chance he may run again in 2012. For those of us who supported him in 2008, we must show people this video. Send it to everyone you know. People are waking up, and they need to know we have the chance to elect someone who can lead us out of this mess...because he knew it was going to happen. The push for 2012 starts now.

The Best Representative in the United States Congress

Ron Paul...He's been saying this for 30 years people! Now we are finally listening.
