The Ron Paul Revolution is the free market in action

The Ron Paul Revolution is the free market in action and this is a fundamental fact that those not involved do not understand. Many outsiders still think of Ron Paul as a "long shot" candidate and they do not grasp how this grass roots campaign is working. The idea of things like a money bomb coming from supporters instead of the official campaign baffles them.

Currently in America many citizens are demanding better representation from our elected officials, from our government, from our politicians. These unsatisfied citizens are supplying the means for change. The voters want a better president than George Bush and now that the market has Ron Paul to offer, we are buying in a big way. This simple natural law of supply and demand is working well.

The voters see such value in a Ron Paul presidency that is unmatched by any of the others candidates. Ron Paul is the benefactor of thousands of individual supporter's actions and contributions. Ron Paul supporters are working freely which makes perfect sense because these supporters value liberty. Ron Paul is selling the old fashion idea of liberty and the Constitution and we are buying.

Nearly all of the other candidates, both the Republicans and Democrats, are selling a brand of American life that is less and less appealing to the citizens and more and more appealing to the bankers and corporations. This basic difference is highlighted in the grass roots support seen for each of the candidates. The market is reflecting the truth.

People like myself have created www.thecaseforronpaul.com and other websites in order to help get Ron Paul elected so we can restore our republic. I receive no money for my work, but I do this because there is value to it. Electing a typical politician has very little value to me or most other citizens of the United States. This is also why many people that normally do not vote have now become involved. For the first time they are seeing value to the election process.

So many members of the Ron Paul Revolution are working toward this common goal and we do so on our own. We do not want or need direction from a central leader or decision maker. Some members create websites while others setup money bombs. Some create videos and others create Ron Paul Revolution signs. Many people are bringing their unique passions to the market because they will receive the value of a Ron Paul presidency in return.

As a military veteran that values the Constitution, I am inclined to donate to the Ron Paul campaign even though I have very, very little money to spare. Ron Paul leads in donations from military members for a simple reason, we support him because he supports us by adhering to the Constitution. This unfortunately is unusual, even though all of the politicians have taken an oath to support and defend the Constitution, just as I did when enlisting in the military.

Ron Paul is the people choice and this is why the Ron Paul Revolution exists. This reveals itself in many ways such as unparalleled support in straw polls, domination in the debate polls, record breaking fund raising, unmatched web traffic and grass roots support of all kinds. For the first time in many decades the United States has a choice better than "the lesser of two evils" and the market of American citizens is supporting the better product. Competition from Ron Paul is revealing the poor quality of the typical politician. Given the choice between a public servant or a politician we have chosen the public servant. The free market has spoken.

Ron Paul & The Main Stream Media

Despite the unusual flurry of interest by at least a segment of the public, Ron Paul has been virtually ignored by the mainstream media.

Even using low national polling numbers as justification, it does not seem to make sense when considering Ron Paul’s unusual ability to out-poll the “top tier” candidates after every national debate.

It would seem that Ron Paul would at least be worthy of a public interest story by the mainstream media that will cover Paris Hilton and Anna Nicole Smith ad nauseam. Certainly the Ron Paul campaign is an anomaly that makes for a good story in the very least.

The traditional media may try to keep Ron Paul's groundswell of support a secret but this will only work against them. In this day and age their ability to influence world events is diminished.

Newspaper circulations are declining, there are more news channels on television than ever before and the internet has passed them all by. America is simply no longer dependent upon the paper and the evening news.

Sooner or later they are going to have to acknowledge and report the actual news. If they don't, they will be rendered completely obsolete in the Internet-based society of the 21st century.

Ron Paul & The GOP

Ron Paul presents a threat to the currently entrenched version of Republicans. While Ron Paul is very similar to the Barry Goldwater/Robert Taft Republican, this is obviously an unwanted presence by the Neo-Con faction of the GOP.

Why would the GOP belong more to Cheney/Bush type Republicans than Goldwater/Taft Republicans?

It seems to me that the Neo-Con days of the GOP are numbered. The American public is losing interest in the Neo-Con vision and the remaining core is desperately trying to hold on. It is not surprising that The Neo-Con Republican does not want to see a change within the GOP, but the change has already occurred.

The market is no longer buying what the Neo-Con Republican is selling. There is demand for a new GOP and Ron Paul is that product. Obviously, the quicker the GOP accepts and endorses Ron Paul, the quicker they can return to power.

The reality is that the GOP would rather push a Neo-Con such as Giuliani and lose the White House than allow Ron Paul to win. Is that because a Democrat is more desirable than a Goldwater/Taft conservative?

I can only surmise that a smaller government led by a conservative is less profitable than having a Democrat in the White House. Consider that the conservatives in AM talk radio promote Neo-Con Republicans and consistently attempt to discredit Ron Paul. Let's look at the issues that would typically concern a conservative.

The Issues:
Lower Taxes
Smaller Government
2nd Amendment/Gun Rights
Secure Border/No Amnesty
Private Property Rights
States Rights

Without any doubt Ron Paul has consistently upheld these conservative beliefs for decades. The same can not be said for the other "top tier" candidates. So why then do AM talk radio personalities reject Ron Paul while promoting non-conservative candidates such as Rudy Giuliani?

It is clear that Ron Paul has the viewpoints that are much more widely accepted by Americans today. Ron Paul believes in the Constitution and that message comes through loud and clear!

Ron Paul Revolution is sweeping the nation!

The Ron Paul campaign is on fire. Even though our mainstream media is doing their best to shut him out, Ron Paul is stirring passsions within the American people. The corporate powers don't want Ron Paul, they want Rudy or Hillary, but maybe this time voters won't have to chose between the lesser of two evils. The white house will go to a Democrat before it goes to Rudy or Romney or any of the other Neo-Con Republicans. That is just the way it is. This country will not elect McCain or any of the other typical Neo-Cons right now.

Doesn't it seem strange that Limbaugh, Hannity and such would rather see Hillary as president than Ron Paul, a Republican. Think about that.

You see, I grew up liking the idea that we live in a nation where anyone could grow up to be president, not just someone from the royalty club.

Enter Ron Paul, America's underdog. Finally a candidate that is a public servant instead of a slick politician.

The typical politicians have not been able to figure out that voters want someone that talks straight and does not dance around the questions. Apparently they think we don't notice when they never really do answer the questions. Well we do notice and we like that Ron Paul not only answers but that he also makes sense! How about that?
