I wouldn't want to leave out exposing Murdoch who uses his media conglomerate to control which candidates you hear about, and which ones you don't. Don't let the Murdoch's of the world steal this election. VOTE RON PAUL 2012
Proof of a tyrannical Obama dictatorship. The Kenyan fraud in chief sure did bring that hopey changey thing. Now, if he is threatened by the existence of a 16 year old American citizen, he'll just target them with a drone at their next back yard bar-b-que. That may be how they do things in Kenya, but not in America.

This is just the beginning of the backlash against the FED, the chrony capitalism, the corporate kleptocracy, the corporations who own candidates, and the candidates they own. One woman in this video echos Ron Paul's policies. 65% of the American people want a full audit of the FED - Ron Paul is the only candidate who has pulled a partial audit of the FED, and found $16 Trillion in secret loans to their buddies and foreign banks. ONE MAN HAS STOOD UP TO THEM. RON PAUL If the media does not start giving Ron Paul, the people's and activie military's candidate good coverage, equal coverage, the media will find itself at the mercy of the same backlash. They are ignoring millions of people, maybe a hundred million or more people, who can only support Ron Paul. They ignore our emails, phone calls, letters, links to Ron Paul videos and appearances. The media ignore the hundreds of unique vote online polls that show Ron Paul winning by landslide numbers. Fox and CNN have gotten better. But the big old networks not on cable are perpetrating a hoax on the American people, and the military personnel. They pick a candidate of the month, neglect to vet them. Or maybe they do vet them, know in advance they will fall, and run it like a month long series. Intent? Intent is to ignore Ron Paul's campaign and his supporters by propping up the other owned candidates until the primaries. I hope the backlash against the media happens now or sooner. These phony land line phone polls, these few thousand people, can not be allowed to pick a frontrunner. If the media chooses this kind of skewed coverage without offering the online poll results, you must know it is deliberate obfuscation of the facts. FIGHT BACK ! Hammer your local media. Hammer the old noncable networks. Be nice, be factual, and hammer them everyday if that's what it takes. We have to win this one. Make sure you are registered properly to vote in the Republican Primary in your state. Google register to vote in your state, and for your state's primary voting requirements. You know in your hearts what is going on. You know in your hearts and minds, and souls, that Ron Paul is a man of integrity, knowledge, experience, and common sense. You know he is a man of his word. You know he walks the walk.
This was October 5, 2011. Excellent for anyone who wants to know about Ron Paul and his policies. I highly recommend viewing this. He is the only candidate whose policies make any sense, the only candidate who is consistent, and the only candidate who is a world renowned authority on Austrian Economics and Monetary Policy. In these critical economic times, he is exactly the right candidate at the right time.
From the CATO Institute Abolish Central Banks by Richard W. Rahn Richard W. Rahn is a senior fellow at the Cato Institute and chairman of the Institute for Global Economic Growth. Added to cato.org on October 25, 2011 This article appeared in The Washington Times on October 25, 2011.
"Should the Federal Reserve be abolished as Rep. Ron Paul and others have demanded? The Republican presidential candidates have agreed that they would like to replace Ben S. Bernanke as chairman of the Fed, and many have been equally critical of former Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan. The view that both Mr. Bernanke and Mr. Greenspan have done poor jobs is also shared by many economists and financial writers. But, if not Mr. Bernanke, who? And if not the Fed, what?

No surprise with the next one. Poor, poor oil companies. While the rest of us struggle to buy gasoline, the oil companies' profits keep going up with the price at the pump. I call that gouging. Gouging is illegal. What would the oil companies do without the subsidies from our government? What would they do without bought off candidates and high dollar lobbyists writing regulations for them? What would they do if Ron Paul stripped them of their subsidies, voided their lobbyists' regulations, and made them compete with lower priced products? Free markets. LOL Texas Uncensored
Many of the OWS supporters around the world are common sense people who know that the Federal Reserve Bank, Goldman Sachs and their minions like BOA & JPM, along with world central banks are directly responsible for the world economic collapse that we are still in the middle of. The middle of, if we are lucky. This large majority is well aware that all but one candidate running for office is bought and paid for, by the same financial criminals who caused the collapse and who have taken over our government. Many of these who know the cause of the crisis support Ron Paul, who also has taken on the thugs at the FED. But, there is an element, a small element of the OWS protests that are not there protesting against the real perps. They shun the mention of protesting the root, the head of the snake, the Federal Reserve Bank, or Goldman Sachs. They are not in front of Congress or the White House protesting a corrupt government at all levels that took part in the destruction of the economy, voting for dollars instead of the Constitution and the people. This small ignorant group of college students mostly, who should be refunded their money if t his is an example of their education, are so clueless about what and who caused this that they shun anyone who would tell them the truth. They don't want the truth. They want what you earn, what I earn, what the shop owner down the street earns, what the successful enterpreneur down the block built and earned. They are misguided, close minded, and inadequately educated. They are singing Soros' tune. That is dangerous to all of us. For that reason, I don't advocate that majority step back, those who know the FED and the goverernment are the problem. In fact, I hope they continue to step up, speak out, and educate. To that majority, you have to hang in, and don't let this small group of marxists, or communists, Soros' paid infiltrators, win. You, the majority have to take control by getting the truth to the misguided. The article following is about the misguided. The article is skewed to blaming the majority, which is wrong. But it describes well the small minority trying to hijack the movement, and they want your money. Texas Uncensored
EconomicPolicyJournal.com: Oh Boy, Bernie Sanders Forms Team to Advise Him on...: The self described democratic-socialist Senator from Vermont, Bernie Sanders, has announced he has formed a panel of experts to advice him ... This merry bunch of financial thugs is supposed to come up with some more bright ideas? Really? LOL
The media, the MSM, desperate to push their corporate owners corporately owned candidate tools down our throats, is being documented. It has been proven. It is as if the media is at war with the American people. They are using the airwaves we own to censor news about Ron Paul. They are so desperate that they do it right in front of us at the debates, cutting Ron Paul's speaking time down whenever they can. He is the smartest, most experienced candidate on the stage and in the race, and he has abundant integrity. He has what all of the others lack. He is genuine, a true patriot.
Liars, panderers, owned by the corporations, or tied to the illegal and corrupt FED. And this illegal election activity is just the tip of the iceberg. American has had enough of these plastic, corrupt politicians and Fed Chairman. Not worthy of the White House, and not worthy of the American people. On top of the lack of integrity and honesty, they do not have the knowledge or experience to run this country in these critical, and crisis times.

Peter Schiff schooled some and discussed with others in the crowd the real root of the economic problems in this country, and the world. He defined what capitalism is, compared to the chronie capitalism and lobbyists' regulations of our system now. And let's not forget the counterfeiting going on at the FED that is devaluing our currency, and heaping more debt on our backs to fund more of their schemes, scams, and wars we don't want, wars forced on us just like they are forced on countries who did not attack us, fought through use of our military, at the risk of the lives of our young people, and financed on our backs without our permission, and usually without our knowledge until after the fact. What the hell is going on here? This isn't what any thinking reasonable person would want. This isn't what we voted for. This isn't what we agreed to at all. But it is a direct attack on our Constitutional protections, and an attack on our national security through destruction of our monetary system. I've had enough. We've all had enough.
But the OWS includes small groups of people whose ideals are not of liberty, smaller government, fewer or no taxes, or even the Constitution. Some are paid to spout illogical nonsense about bigger government, more social controls, more government controls to take from one segment and give to another. They do not understand that we have had chronie capitalism, not free market capitalism for a long time. Some seem to not understand the core issues at all. The media has focused on them, the minority, attempting to give the wrong impression about the 99% of the protesters to the public via the MSM.
These videos will show you who the majority are. Some are knowledgeable, others have part of it right, but needed more good information, and a few didn't understand how the economy works and so were in denial that Peter Schiff is correct. There seemed to be many Ron Paul supporters there, trying to educate anyone willing to listen about the FED, and how it has facilitated the addiction to greed and power of Wall Street, the banksters, and the bought off government, and their endless wars to justify the ever larger government, with it's ever increasing encroachments on our liberties, more with every day, in efforts to slowly subdue our ability to recognize their utter vileness. They are trying to correct the misinformation. They are also explaining that it isn't the 99% against the 1%. It is one root entity that is holding us hostage through unpayable mounting debt, and endless wars. The FED
Good luck to them. Spread the message. Only one man can cure what ails this nation. Ron Paul 2012

Ron Paul spoke at the National Press Conference Luncheon, October 15, 2011, very important venue. The press was impressed. You could have heard a pin drop in the room. He also fielded a few questions after, and got a few laughs from the press. They must have been thinking how refreshing a change Ron Paul would be in the White House, and at press conferences. Enjoy

ALERT ! THIS IS A MUST SEE ! This is a real ALERT to WE The PEOPLE ! It is a call to action. In Copenhagen, December 6 - 18, 2009, if Obama signs this treaty, the United States will no longer be a soveriegn nation. We've been had, people!
Minnesota Free Market Institute on 10/14/09. The speaker was Lord Christopher Monckton, former science adviser to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. http://motls.blogspot.com/2006/11/christopher-monckton-vs-mark-trodden.html
http://foxienews.com/blog/? "This Treaty (also known as a Convention) would take away our US Sovereignty. He said that the Treaty itself doesn’t do it, but that Article 6 of our Constitution states that: “all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land;”
Do you think Obama wouldn't do that to this country? Really? Think again. Better than that, don't take my word for it. READ THIS ! http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2009/oct/14/obama-india-china-climate-change
They want to tax CO2. In other words - they haven't found a way to tax the air you breath yet......BUT, they have found a way to tax us all for breathing out. Then they want to use your tax money for breathing out to fund 3rd world countries. You see what this really is, don't you? It's another way to steal more of our wealth, or what is left of it, and funnel it to the greedy corporations so that they can develop 3rd world countries in their image so they can make more Profits ! And they plan to trample our Constitution and our Bill of Rights to do it.
This a call to action. CONTACT YOUR Reps in the Congress & the Senate. Pick up your phone. Crank up your email. Visit in person if you can ! BE HEARD !Make your voices heard, loudly, proudly, and powerfully. Do it now ! Do this for you, your kids, your grandkids, and the generations to follow. http://www.usa.gov/Contact/Elected.shtml
Are you awake now ! Make yourselves heard while you still can. Be sure to read the post following this. IMPORTANT PEOPLE ! Call- Email - Write Your Reps ! http://www.usa.gov/Contact/Elected.shtml http://www.house.gov/ http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm
SHOWDOWN IN CHICAGO * October 25, 2009 http://www.showdowninchicago.org
Wear What You Mean ! http://www.wesaidnobailout.bravehost.com
The Minnesota Free Market Institute hosted an event at Bethel University in St. Paul on Wednesday evening. Keynote speaker Lord Christopher Monckton, former science adviser to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, gave a scathing and lengthy presentation, complete with detailed charts, graphs, facts, and figures which culminated in the utter decimation of both the pop culture concept of global warming and the credible threat of any significant anthropomorphic climate change.
A detailed summary of Monckton’s presentation will be available here once compiled. However, a segment of his remarks justify immediate publication. If credible, the concern Monckton speaks to may well prove the single most important issue facing the American nation, bigger than health care, bigger than cap and trade, and worth every citizen’s focused attention.
Here were Monckton’s closing remarks, as dictated from my audio recording:
At [the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference in] Copenhagen, this December, weeks away, a treaty will be signed. Your president will sign it. Most of the third world countries will sign it, because they think they’re going to get money out of it. Most of the left-wing regime from the European Union will rubber stamp it. Virtually nobody won’t sign it.
I read that treaty. And what it says is this, that a world government is going to be created. The word “government” actually appears as the first of three purposes of the new entity. The second purpose is the transfer of wealth from the countries of the West to third world countries, in satisfication of what is called, coyly, “climate debt” – because we’ve been burning CO2 and they haven’t. We’ve been screwing up the climate and they haven’t. And the third purpose of this new entity, this government, is enforcement.
How many of you think that the word “election” or “democracy” or “vote” or “ballot” occurs anywhere in the 200 pages of that treaty? Quite right, it doesn’t appear once. So, at last, the communists who piled out of the Berlin Wall and into the environmental movement, who took over Greenpeace so that my friends who funded it left within a year, because [the communists] captured it – Now the apotheosis as at hand. They are about to impose a communist world government on the world. You have a president who has very strong sympathies with that point of view. He’s going to sign it. He’ll sign anything. He’s a Nobel Peace Prize [winner]; of course he’ll sign it.
[laughter]
And the trouble is this; if that treaty is signed, if your Constitution says that it takes precedence over your Constitution (sic), and you can’t resign from that treaty unless you get agreement from all the other state parties – And because you’ll be the biggest paying country, they’re not going to let you out of it.
So, thank you, America. You were the beacon of freedom to the world. It is a privilege merely to stand on this soil of freedom while it is still free. But, in the next few weeks, unless you stop it, your president will sign your freedom, your democracy, and your humanity away forever. And neither you nor any subsequent government you may elect will have any power whatsoever to take it back. That is how serious it is. I’ve read the treaty. I’ve seen this stuff about [world] government and climate debt and enforcement. They are going to do this to you whether you like it or not.
But I think it is here, here in your great nation, which I so love and I so admire – it is here that perhaps, at this eleventh hour, at the fifty-ninth minute and fifty-ninth second, you will rise up and you will stop your president from signing that dreadful treaty, that purposeless treaty. For there is no problem with climate and, even if there were, an economic treaty does nothing to [help] it.
So I end by saying to you the words that Winston Churchill addressed to your president in the darkest hour before the dawn of freedom in the Second World War. He quoted from your great poet Longfellow:
Sail on, O Ship of State! Sail on, O Union, strong and great! Humanity with all its fears, With all the hopes of future years, Is hanging breathless on thy fate!
Lord Monckton received a standing ovation and took a series of questions from members of the audience. Among those questions were these relevent to the forthcoming Copenhagen treaty:
Question: The current administration and the Democratic majority in Congress has shown little regard for the will of the people. They’re trying to pass a serious government agenda, and serious taxation and burdens on future generations. And there seems to be little to stop them. How do you propose we stop Obama from doing this, because I see no way to stop him from signing anything in Copenhagen. I believe that’s his agenda and he’ll do it.
I don’t minimize the difficulty. But on this subject – I don’t really do politics, because it’s not right. In the end, your politics is for you. The correct procedure is for you to get onto your representatives, both in the US Senate where the bill has yet to go through (you can try and stop that) and in [the House], and get them to demand their right of audience (which they all have) with the president and tell him about this treaty. There are many very powerful people in this room, wealthy people, influential people. Get onto the media, tell them about this treaty. If they go to www.wattsupwiththat.com, they will find (if they look carefully enough) a copy of that treaty, because I arranged for it to be posted there not so long ago. Let them read it, and let the press tell the people that their democracy is about to be taken away for no good purpose, at least [with] no scientific basis [in reference to climate change]. Tell the press to say this. Tell the press to say that, even if there is a problem [with climate change], you don’t want your democracy taken away. It really is as simple as that.
Question: Is it really irrevocable if that treaty is signed? Suppose it’s signed by someone who does not have the authority, as I – I have some, a high degree of skepticism that we do have a valid president there because I -
I know at least one judge who shares your opinion, sir, yes.
I don’t believe it until I see it. … Would [Obama's potential illegitimacy as president] give us a reasonable cause to nullify whatever treaty that he does sign as president?
I would be very careful not to rely on things like that. Although there is a certain amount of doubt whether or not he was born in Hawaii, my fear is it would be very difficult to prove he wasn’t born in Hawaii and therefore we might not be able to get anywhere with that. Besides, once he’s signed that treaty, whether or not he signed it validly, once he’s signed it and ratified it – your Senate ratifies it – you’re bound by it. But I will say one thing; they know, in the White House, that they won’t be able to get the 67 votes in the Senate, the two-thirds majority that your Constitution has stipulated must be achieved in order to ratify a treaty of this kind. However, what they’ve worked out is this – and they actually let it slip during the election campaign, which is how I know about it. They plan to enact that Copenhagen treaty into legislation by a simple majority of both houses. That they can do. But the virtue of that – and here you have a point – is that is, thank God, reversible. So I want you to pray tonight, and pray hard for your Senate that they utterly refuse to ratify the [new] Treaty of Copenhagen, because if they refuse to ratify it and [Obama] has to push it through as domestic legislation, you can repeal it.
Regardless of whether global warming is taking place or caused to any degree by human activity, we do not want a global government empowered to tax Americans without elected representation or anything analogous to constitutional protections. The Founding Fathers would roll over in their graves if they knew their progeny allowed a foreign power such authority, effectively undoing their every effort in an act of Anti-American Revolution. If that is our imminent course, we need to put all else on hold and focus on stopping it. If American sovereignty is ceded, all other debate is irrelevant.
Edited to add @ 8:31 am:
Skimming through the treaty, I came across verification of Monckton’s assessment of the new entity’s purpose:
38. The scheme for the new institutional arrangement under the Convention will be based on three basic pillars: government; facilitative mechanism; and financial mechanism, and the basic organization of which will include the following:
World Government (heading added) (a) The government will be ruled by the COP with the support of a new subsidiary body on adaptation, and of an Executive Board responsible for the management of the new funds and the related facilitative processes and bodies. The current Convention secretariat will operate as such, as appropriate.
This is strong stuff. This Bill Moyers Report interview with William K. Black about who tanked the economy and why is explosive. The transcript is also available at the link given. Have you got an hour to listen ? If you do, listen twice, and get mad ! Then, please demand that your representatives on the hill stop sucking up to these criminals including those newly appointed in the administration. It's all a con job. These Wall Street appointees are the same crooks who robbed We The People blind. Why did Obama appoint these people ? He knew they were crooks. You must realize that they have been appointed to cover all the crooks asses. What is going on here ? I guess somebody has to say it. Was he involved ?

I'm going to provide a list of links, some of which may include similar footage. The area where I grew up was devastated, and as of today almost 140 people are still missing, possibly washed out to sea, or inland. I think these videos will say it all. May God bless them, and those who knew them.
This first video is of a rescued couple who frequent an international forum where I post. As the hurricane was coming in, many of us in the area from the coast to north of Houston were posting first hand information about conditions as they worsened. This couple was posting from Bolivar, and suddenly weren't posting up. As we knew the 'cane' had hit them first, there was great concern, even from those in Europe who were following our reports. It was a week before we found out that they had survived barely, as they clung to the rafters in their attic crawl space. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYp7J80qfLU&feature=related
