The Revolution continues

The mainstream media claims that Mitt Romney has the GOP nomination, we are being told to pick between the lesser of two evils. Even the son of the greatest presidential candidate in history has flipped sides and decided to support the ‘presumptive nominee’ But the Revolution continues! You see, the Ron Paul Revolution is a philosophical one. It is the idea of self liberty and self determination. For much of the last one-hundred years the US population has been sidetracked into left vs right politicking, and has been left with the choice of ‘the lesser of two evils’.

I will not vote for Mitt Romney, I will not vote for him even with Rand Paul’s support. I will only vote for a man of principle, and that is Ron Paul. What is the point in voting for Obama-lite? Many of Obama’s policies and legislation are Romney inspired. Why would you go out and vote for another progressive? Why would you vote for a known flip-flopper? Why would you vote for another fraud, a snake in sheep’s clothing?

I’ve seen bumper stickers and comments that say that those who voted for Obama are idiots. Well, do you think that voting for McCain made you a saint? The John McCain who supported the bailouts, the wars of aggression in the middle east, and who co-wrote the NDAA act? Do you think that John McCain the progressive would have been much better than Obama the progressive?

All those on the left that say that those who voted for Bush (the counterfeit conservative) are idiots, do you really think that John Kerry would have been better, or Al Gore? Al Gore, the guy who sells the idea of Global Warming, and makes millions trading ‘carbon credits’.

Do you not see that the media steers you into choosing between ‘the lesser of two evils’ on a consistent basis?

When I went to the very first Tea Party in Cincinnati back in early 2009, I was impressed when a man made a speech about how he was tired of voting for ‘the lesser of two evils’. And now I see that the Tea Party, along with its supports such as Rand Paul and Glenn Beck, have abandoned their principles and are now supporting a progressive that is worse than George Bush!

Where are your principles?

Do you really think you’re going to make all that much difference when you throw your support behind a ‘chosen’ candidate who is firmly a part of the establishment? The same establishment that has given you all the rules and regulations, taxes, wars, and liberty stripping security that we now feel under the suffocating pillow of bloated government.

So I ask you, will you vote for another establishment candidate, or will you spread the word of Ron Paul? The word of liberty and the constitution. Or will you become another tool in the New World Order’s toolbox of useful idiots? Blindly believing that if you support their ‘chosen’ candidate, that you are somehow aiding the cause of freedom?

Don’t get swept up into the crowd, stand as an individual for liberty and spread the ideas of the consititution and of self worth. Don’t go along with the ‘mainstream’.

We still have time, and Ron Paul may well sweep the floor at the GOP convention in August in a similar way to how Ronald Reagan did in 1980. Soon the GOP and the democrats will realize that currently; neither have the young vote and that Ron Paul does. We want to live in a free and prosperous society, and we do not like the debt and burdens of slavery currently being handed to us.

The Ron Paul Revolution of liberty and restoring this country continues!

“An idea whose time has come cannot be stopped by any army or any government!” – Ron Paul

The evil of Israel

I wrote this article almost three years ago now. When I wrote it, I was still diving down the rabbit hole of truth. Indeed, I still am, but I do not have a hatred of Israel, like I did when I wrote it. I’ll explain after you read this article. – Paul Townsend 12/17/14

Today marks the 64th anniversary of Israel as a nation state. Many media organizations will glorify this and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that “For many around the world, Israel remains a beacon of hope and an inspiring example”.

For many though, it is a day of mourning, a loss of liberty and freedom, of a homeland and the dream of living independently. For the Palestinians, it is yet another year marked by savage occupation.

We have been led to believe that Israel is a source of goodness and hope in the world, yet the truth is bloody and brutal.

Israel and the occupation of Palestine:

Many argue that the Jews should have a homeland, and while I don’t disagree with that, I do not believe that it should be on Palestinian territory. These people have been displaced and terrorized for 64 years now. They have been shot at, bombed, and their lands have been taken from them.

Many adults are killed each year in what is left of Palestinian territory, and along with them, many children are killed each year also.

Many claim that Israel is America’s greatest ally, and yet we send millions of dollars to Israel every day, while they send PR groups to America to control the media and even our politicians. Zionist controlled Israel is in fact Americas biggest enemy. Imagine if the Zionist controlled media continues to guide us to war with Iran:

I do not hate Jews, I am not anti-Semitic. I believe our true enemy in the world today is Zionism. The Zionists are the people behind the current misery in the world. I believe that the Palestinians should have their land back, or at least a sizable amount of it. If the UN can mandate that a country be created out of thin air, then why not have it in Asia or Africa, instead of the middle east? In the early 1900’s this was a proposition from the British government, but the zionists did not want that, they wanted to take over the land of Palestine. It was a plan in the making, and it has now come into fruition. It is evil and has done nothing for peace in the region.

Many in the media twist the truth to make the Palestinians look evil, and call them ‘terror groups’, all the while it is the Israelis who are terrorizing and occupying Palestinian lands.

I cannot support Israel because it goes against my belief in human independence, freedom and dignity.

Now that you have had a chance to read this, I would like to point out that while the creation of the state of Israel by the United Nations, and the subsequent actions of the Israelis in taking over the land from the Palestinians may have in many ways been evil, the young men and women who are born there today are not. Those who are my age live in that country, and know of nothing else. They are peaceful, they are civil, they are capitalists. The Palestinians, led by Hamas, are not. Hamas is an evil extremist entity, with ties to communism. I cannot support what is left of current day Palestine under the leadership of Hamas, despite my feeling sorry for their loss of land. Their actions have been their undoing. I feel it would be far better for them to move away from the land entirely and start elsewhere, just as the Israelis did many decades ago. It is a shame, in many ways, but fighting against the Israelis has never, and will never work, and will only continue to cause death and destruction.  – Paul Townsend 12/17/14

A return to values

Our Societies are made and broken on a system of values. If our values are strong and rooted in a common cause for freedom, we will be strong. If our values are rooted in a common cause for collective salvation, our nation will become weak and perish.

My values of freedom, independence and limited government, mean that my political views do not fall into the category of Conservative or Liberal

My views are strictly libertarian in nature, and I follow the constitution of the United States since it embodies many libertarian values.

Libertarianism is a political philosophy that upholds individual liberty, especially freedom of expression and action.

The largest growth of freedom and industry in history can be traced to laissez-fair capitalism and libertarian systems of government.

Pax Britannica (Latin for “the British Peace”, modelled after Pax Romana) was the period of relative peace in Europe (1815–1914) during which the British Empire controlled most of the key maritime trade routes and enjoyed unchallenged sea power.

Although Great Britain did create the largest Empire in history, it was mostly done through exploration and peaceful trade agreements. Some skirmishes did happen, but the Empire was not constantly at war, and ruled over its territories with very few people, and lax rules. Peace and Prosperity, laissez-faire capitalism and libertarian values allowed the expansion of the British Empire through trade. This was also a period of great industrial growth and led to the industrial revolution.

Many of the current political establishments throughout the world today, seek to divide and conquer us with the game of Left vs. Right or conservative vs. liberal. While many do have more conservative or liberal opinions, I believe the Overton Window has shifted so that we are all now ‘progressives’. If you support a progressive candidate on either the left or the right, you are essentially a progressive by aiding their agenda.

However there is a third option; we can go back to constitutional values, and start voting for candidates who espouse these values.

Do not vote for a progressive on either side, even if this allows ‘the other side’ to win. In reality the only side is your side. The individuals side. If you cannot win, then don’t play. Stick to local issues, and talk to as many people as you can about national issues when there is someone who actually sticks to the constitution.

When I see President Barack Obama, I see the communist values of Joseph Stalin, and when I look at Newt Gingrich or Mitt Romney I see the fascist values of Adolf Hitler. Neither sides stick to what they say, and both have pro-government agendas with the expansion of government interference in our daily lives and the destruction of our personal freedoms.

While capitalism and a free society with libertarian values are important, peace is the third key to prosperity. We must not engage in unnecessary warfare.

The great seal of the United States embodies the will of the country.

The bald eagle grips an oak branch and 13 arrows. This symbolizes  “a strong desire for peace, but will always be ready for war.”

Our current situation, mirroring the downfall of the Roman Empire by taking over countries, is unsustainable, and should be avoided. See my article WWIII, a great depression or liberty to see why another war will ruin us.

‘there is no instance of any country having benefited from prolonged warfare’ – Sun Tzu

We should be peaceful with other countries, and engage in trade. More money and prosperity can be made in peace time than in war time, and more technologies can be invented when there is peace at home to do so to.

There will always be threats to us, and we will confront them, but we cannot continue to create preemptive attacks on other countries simply because we fear them producing a weapon that we already have thousands of ourselves.

We do not have the right to police the world, but we do have a right to protect ourselves, and protect ourselves we shall. We must get back to our roots and become a leader in the world again, a leader for peace and prosperity through freedom, free trade, laissez-faire capitalism and libertarian values. Once we do this, the world will be a better place.

Empires rise and fall, countries rise and fall, and all of this is because the people of the nations allow it to fall to by becoming apathetic. This nation is founded upon the principles of freedom, and thus has the most potential to save itself. A return to values is far more important than any one party, and a return to peace will ensure our survival, and allow our country to thrive once more.

Ron Paul or a bust

Do you want to see Obama defeated in this year’s presidential election?

Do you want a leader who adheres to the constitution of the United States, or just another teleprompter in chief?

Do you want a strong leader, who will arm wrestle his way through legislation, or a leader who will set this country back on the track of independence and freedom?

My friends, I love freedom, and in the years that I have lived in this great country, I have done a great deal of research into what it means to be an American, and what it means to have liberty.

During the republican debates, I have found only one good candidate for office. There is only one who will put this country back on track, only one who will restore this country to what it should be, and only one who has your freedom in mind.

His name is Ron Paul, and I endorse him to become the next president of the United States.

Now the media would have you believe that Mitt Romney is the front runner, and that he would be the best contestant against President Obama. But would he be the best person to put in the white house? Sure…he’d probably be better than Obama…but given Romney’s flip flop nature, how can we trust him? Romney has lived a life of leisure, and has been groomed for success. But all he’s ever done is loot from other companies, stripped assets, and bloated government.

Newt Gingrich, who is the media’s current flavor of the week, has benefited from certain legislation and would endorse the police state.

For Mitt Romney to become the republican nominee all he  needs to do is sit tight, keep his mouth shut and look pretty. Don’t you think he’s quite handsome? Look at that lovely smile…reminds me of someone else I know.

All he has to do is give a few decent talking points, tell the crowd how much Obama sucks as a president, and allow his many corporate backers to write mammoth checks for his advertising and campaigns. The New World Order will continue unprecedented, and the Overton Window will shift ever closer toward a regimented lifestyle and back toward the ruling elite. But:

There is one candidate who stands in his way: Ron Paul

No other candidate has a proven background like Ron Paul, and no-one else is standing up toward the special interest media, and corporate groups.

In order to get rid of Ron Paul, the media does its best to blank out Ron Paul, they’ll silence anyone who stands up for him:

They do their best to discredit him, and now that Ron Paul is gaining momentum, they’ll use anything they can to stop him. They’ll even prop up the other candidates and use them as cannon fodder, to protect their chosen one, the illustrious Mitt Romney.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Mitt Romney is not unstoppable; he is not even very popular. He has a lot of big buck backers, and that is about it. All the other candidates are cannon fodder to use against Ron Paul.

Here is an article I read a couple days ago about Mitt Romney’s elect-ability:

http://www.financialbell.com/if-mitt-romney-is-so-electable-then-why-didnt-republicans-nominate-him-in-2008/

I couldn’t have said it better myself!

Here is how the candidates are supported:

Mitt Romney & Ron Paul

The cannon fodder

Now I’ve heard that Ron Paul is unelectable and he doesn’t have a very good foreign policy.

Well shucks, wasn’t Ronald Reagan ‘unelectable’ also?

Wasn’t Ronald Reagan’s policy to keep the troops home, and rebuild them here on our soil?

Isn’t this country technically bankrupt? At 15 trillion dollars, equivalent to a years output of GDP, do you think we can afford another war? Do you think we can afford to police the world? Do you think we can afford multiple army bases all over the world?

Logic dictates that NO is the only answer.

Do you think it is a good idea to have our troops scattered around the world while the country is going bankrupt? Do you really think another country is going to fill the void and place troops all over the world when America leaves these bases?

Can this country afford another four years of Obama? Can this country afford another teleprompter-in-chief? Can we afford to trust a flip-flopper? Can we afford Romney-Care or Obama-care?

I don’t think this country can withstand much more of these failed polices and big government, from the right or the left.

The only person I see who actually has a concrete plan to fix this nation, to fix the economy, to maintain, preserve and restore freedom is Ron Paul. I don’t think we can afford to allow the media to have us ignore him any more.

For those who love freedom, for those who want a return of independence, for those who wish to return to a smaller government; consider very carefully who you vote for during the primaries.

Here is to freedom and to Ron Paul, whom I believe (if we can get him through the republican primaries) will crush Obama in the debates, and who I believe will not only become the best leader this country has had since Ronald Reagan, but indeed become one of the greatest presidents in history.

Ron Paul 2012!

Documents to live by

Throughout history, civilizations have risen and fallen. Many people have lived in slavery, and few in freedom. Even in the modern world, many live under a totalitarian regime, and many under the oppression of communism and dictatorships.

In 1215 a group of Englishmen banded together and created the magna carta, a charter of common laws which provides for the basic rights of man.

Magna Carta is an English charter, originally issued in the year 1215 and reissued later in the 13th century in modified versions. The later versions excluded the most direct challenges to the monarch’s authority that had been present in the 1215 charter. The charter first passed into law in 1225; the 1297 version, with the long title (originally in Latin) The Great Charter of the Liberties of England, and of the Liberties of the Forest, still remains on the statute books of England and Wales.

The 1215 charter required King John of England to proclaim certain liberties, and accept that his will was not arbitrary, for example by explicitly accepting that no “freeman” (in the sense of non-serf) could be punished except through the law of the land, a right which is still in existence today.

The United States of America

When Englishmen left their homeland for the new world, they brought with them charters establishing the colonies. The Massachusetts Bay Company charter for example stated the colonists would “have and enjoy all liberties and immunities of free and natural subjects.” The Virginia Charter of 1606 (which was largely drafted by Sir Edward Coke) stated the colonists would have all “liberties, franchises and immunities” as if they had been born in England. The Massachusetts Body of Liberties contained similarities to clause 29 of the Magna Carta, and the Massachusetts General Court in drawing it up viewed Magna Carta as the chief embodiment of English common law.[73] The other colonies would follow their example.

The settlers of the origional 13 colonies lived by the comman laws of England, and when they began to feel oppressed by the monarchy of England, they decided to seperate from the motherland, and create a new country.

United States Declaration of Independence

The Declaration of Independence was a statement adopted by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, which announced that the thirteen American colonies then at war with Great Britain regarded themselves as independent states, and no longer a part of the British Empire. John Adams put forth a resolution earlier in the year which made a formal declaration inevitable. A committee was assembled to draft the formal declaration, which was to be ready when congress voted on independence. Adams persuaded the committee to select Thomas Jefferson to compose the original draft of the document,[2] which congress would edit to produce the final version. The Declaration was ultimately a formal explanation of why Congress had voted on July 2 to declare independence from Great Britain, more than a year after the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

After the war of independence, the Constitution and bill of rights were written.

These documents have provided the gateway for the most free country in the history of the world.

This document must be protected to ensure the freedom of man.

Ronald Reagan once said that America is the last shining beacon of hope in the world. I believe this to be true, no matter how dark the days may be becoming.

Long live Liberty and the freedom of mankind!

Bravery and the heroes call to adventure

So you’re beginning your education, and you have history as your guide. But what about your fundamentals? What is your drive? What is at your core? What are your belief’s?

Some people turn to religion, and some are drilled into a certain way of thinking from a young age, whether it be through a state education, private education, or some military academy. Others; like myself, fell between the cracks and began a path all on our own.

Joseph Campbell wrote about the heroes journey, and the call to adventure. At just 17 years old; I took that adventure, and it all leads up to where I am today.

The Hero with a Thousand Faces (first published in 1949) is a non-fiction book, and seminal work of comparative mythology by Joseph Campbell. In this publication, Campbell discusses his theory of the journey of the archetypal hero found in world mythologies.

Since publication of The Hero with a Thousand Faces, Campbell’s theory has been consciously applied by a wide variety of modern writers and artists. The best known is perhaps George Lucas, who has acknowledged a debt to Campbell regarding the stories of the Star Wars films.

The mythology, and the standards that you live by, are what define you. Without them, you are easily swayed in one direction or another. Like the saying goes: ‘You either stand for something, or you’ll fall for anything’ this becomes true without a set of core principles that you feel strongly for at heart.

Personally, I believe in freedom, independence, self preservation and reliability. I believe each man and woman have the right to make whatever they want of themselves, so long as they are not taking something involuntarily away from others.

Ayn Rand wrote about the ‘virtue of selfishness’, that determining your own reality was the most important step you could take, and not letting other people stop you.

So what is your life’s calling? What will make  you get up and start doing what you really want to be doing? What will make you stand up and start walking toward your dreams?

As you begin to take the first steps, you will face many challenges, but as you meet and face those challenges, you will begin becoming more yourself, and the person you were supposed to be.

Take the heroes journey, explore the truth, be yourself, and discover the wonders of life.
