Dear friends, We are in desperate times and are all looking for people we can trust. When someone appears to offer an answer we are naturally excited and motivated. I have loosely watched Ron Paul for some 6 years and was excited about him running for President. I even wrote several articles and posted them on my website: http://rpmgt.org/RonPaul.htm I was sincere in my research of this person but I did miss some things until last week. I will show some other matters below that have completely convinced me of my error. Since I did present a positive endorsement of this candidate I feel the need to share why I feel I was mistaken. I do not endorse anyone else. Sincerely, Rick Dec. 23, 2007.
Ron Paul and John Paul.
A few more reasons why I was mistaken.
Ron Paul has recently
stated publicly
that he opposes a new world order and globalism
bodies such as the
Bilderberger group's ideas. He said in the recent YouTube Presidential debate
that people behind such groups have a "conspiracy of ideas."
http://www.usadaily.com/article.cfm?articleID=181930
On the other hand he is open to making America trade with all nations such as
China, Iran, North Korea and Cuba. Ron Paul also praises world leaders such as
Pope John Paul II who attended a Bilderberger meeting with Clinton, supported
the formation of a European Union, and who called for a New World Order and a
one world religion (gathered with all the religions of the world he said, "We are all praying to the same god."). He called him "one of the great religious leaders of modern
times, and an eloquent champion of human freedom and dignity."
http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul242.html
In the second speech Ron Paul praises the Pope for being "a great man of God
and peace"
Some people who oppose the Globalist neoconservative agenda, as Ron Paul has
been well known for, are troubled by the fact that he coauthored a book in 1993
with Lewis E. Lehrman who is a neoconservative and one of the directors of The
Project for a New American Century. People may explain away that connection but
the late Pope's actions in promoting the United Nations as well as a new world
order were very obvious to everyone. Further, the Pope made great efforts to
make all world religions into one, contradicting the obvious fundamental
differences they all have in reference to origins, meaning, morality and
destiny.
While Ron Paul now says he does not support the conspiracy theories of Alex
Jones, he has appeared on his show numerous times over the years
in a way
which gave most people the opposite impression. This has prompted critics like
Glen Beck to ask Ron Paul directly what his views about government involvement
with 911 terrorism are.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YUukbFgQcY
Paul responded to the surprise of many conspiracy theorists that the theories
were bizarre and preposterous while advocating that instead it all came down to
a bad foreign policy and leadership ineptness. While it is true that the
specific theories Beck asked about, which Paul used those words to describe,
were one set of theories, Paul nevertheless did give a categorical rejection of
all conspiracy theories for that event and used the same language when asked on
other programs. Two things that were the most surprising about Paul's
belittling statements against what Alex Jones holds as obvious fact, were that
Ron Paul claimed to never even hear some of the well known theories Glen Beck
had addressed, and that Alex Jones continued his support and respect for Ron
Paul in the same way as if the interview never happened. Firstly, Ron Paul has
heard these theories numerous times over the years in numerous interviews on
the Jones show, as well as from numerous persons who have corresponded with him
both as a Congressman as well as a presidential candidate. This denial is an
obvious lie. When I asked the dailypaul.com forum what their thoughts were
about this, many argued just as Beck said, that he had to lie. | ||||||||||
"The Pope's commitment to human
dignity" was "grounded in the teachings of Christ" which Ron Paul supposed led
him to oppose "the death penalty" (
Pope John Paul II declared mass murderer Sir Thomas More|
On the Alex Jone show Jan 8, 2008 the following question and answer was given at the end of the mid-day brodcast concerning Ron Paul's answer to Glen Beck's question about 911 conspiracy theories: 1 minute clip of Alex Jones claiming Ron Paul was playing politics about 911
"Ron can't really talk about that right now, can he?"
|
|
On January 10th 2008 on the Fox debate in SC the second question asked to Ron Paul was the following as transcribed here, and on video here.
"Many of your supporters call themselves 911 truthers. They believe that the US government was in some way complicit with the 911 attacks or covered it up. Are you tonight prepared to either embrace that rhetoric or ask those supporters to abandon it? Or divorce themselves from your candidancy?"
"I can't tell people what to do, but I've abandoned those viewpoints. I don't believe that, and that's the only thing that is important. And so I don't endorse anything they say," he said without officially asking his backers to cease that type of rhetoric.
"Sir would you ask them to cease that rhetoric on your behalf?"
"Well, it doesn't do me any good, so if they care about me, they should. But the only thing I have control over is what I believe and what I say," Paul said.
|
Secondly, Alex Jones has been an outspoken and harsh critic of those who disbelieve his theories. His continued support of Ron Paul contradicts many years of criticizing of others who made the exact same statements as Ron Paul has just made. Further, while Jones has avoided almost all discussion about the Vatican and the NWO he did produce an article opposing the Pope a few years ago when he pushed for the NWO: http://www.infowars.com/articles/nwo/pope_bush_proposed_chaplain_nwo.htm To be consistent, if it were anyone else, Jones would have dismissed Ron Paul as endorsing the NWO for his comments about the late Pope (as well as for the way he dismissed Jones' theories).
The Alex Jones media machine has been a major contributor to the Ron Paul campaign. Most of Jones' listeners support Ron Paul. The question we have after the Beck interview and the praising statements about Pope John Paul, is why? The two are mutually exclusive. Alex Jones' doctrine and practice has called Ron Paul's views as stated deceitful and cowardly for someone in his position. But he will not act consistently. Instead, he went on the attack against Glen Beck for asking the questions Americans wanted to know about Ron Paul. Even Jones' sidekicks the Watson brothers, who run his websites and write articles for him, thought the interview went very well. But Jones said on his show that he disagreed with these brothers. Very revealing indeed!
Jones has further stated on radio that he was significantly influential in getting Ron Paul to run for President and also that his camp coined the term or started the recent Ron Paul Revolution. During the same period where Paul was distancing himself from 911 conspiracy theories, Jones published totally unsupported claims about NWO assassination plans for Ron Paul: http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/december2007/121407_assassinating_paul.htm This was a major subject on the dailyPaul.com forums for the next week even though there was much action to stop all discussion about it. I'm sure this will bring many thoughts to peoples minds... The Watson and Jones team have continually used these kinds of sensational claims in the past. Notice the strength of the argument in the following statement: " Estulin, whose information has unfortunately proven very accurate in the past, went public with the bombshell news [about a Ron Paul assassination plot] during an appearance on The Alex Jones Show today." Jones always draws a lot of attention to his industry whenever such prophetically false claims are made to scare his audience. Typical with all cult groups, the prophesy is given with some disclaimer and hope that it will not happen, but the natural impression is given to all followers that it will definitely happen. When it doesn't happen, and the hype is long gone, the disclaimer is then used to justify the sensational prophesy. Jones has done this repeatedly, and actually daily reinforces the false predictions. He is bound to be right one time out of a hundred. But just last year in the summer he gave a very solemn warning that the end was really coming this time. War was about to start up like we have never seen it, within a month. This was special and equal only to his prediction about 9/11 (which he falsely claimed he was the first to warn about). Well actually he did make a real fool of himself and his followers on December 31, 1999. The disclaimer clause in this more resent case was that his listeners could make a difference by activism. Nevertheless the terror continued to scare everyone in the same way that so many cult leaders have scared their sheep. | ||||||||||
|
Alex Jones has rebuked others over the years for using foul language on his show, but lately he has finally shown his own real character in this regard. Alex Jones is an actor who has gradually lead his sheep to the delusions he has desired. For years he called for non-violence (while his body language and voice tones contradicted it) but this clip shows the listener his real philosophy and plan to stir up a violent revolution. If you really can know someone by their fruit we can see that Jones is just as perverse as those he is claiming to attack. It soon becomes manifest to the impartial observer that he is really promoting the same agendas. Like a frog in the pot his listeners have had the water temperature turned up slowly so that they did not suspect or notice the changes this man has made over the years. His program, run on the ABC owned GCN media, has gradually moved towards violence, filth and delusion. Another example is the increased promotion of death metal Satanic music on the program. He used to play music for only a short period of time but now he runs this death metal filth for prolonged periods after his breaks. He does not claim to be a saint even though he claims to be a Christian. The following video shows that he is not Christian and actually an agent provocateur. This is Ron Paul's friend.
|
|
Lest you think Ron Paul is way above these kinds of things, the fact is that he has continually appeared on the Alex Jones show over the years and has spoken sympathetically with Jones as he made numerous sensational claims. Late this summer, just before the Ron Paul Revolution really took off, Ron Paul made the following statement on the show: "If I were a betting man I would bet that they will attack Iran before the end of this administration, which means in the next year or so. The plans have been laid just like the plans were laid to go into Iraq a long time before they did but they had to wait for the right opportunity." http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/august2007/280807_iran_attack.htm This fit in perfectly with all the hype Jones was engaged in for the last 3 or 4 years about Iran. First it was April 2005, then Fall of that year. Then Fall 2006. Now we have about a year to go. But now things have changed with Iran. The scare tactics will continue. Both these men criticize the government for scaring the people into following them, but they are on record for doing the same. Every time Alex Jones produces a new scary terrorism video of the nature of an Osama video, which many times features Ron Paul, it successfully draws in more support for this scare media industrial complex. (I should mention here also that GCN is actually owned by ABC!) Alex Jones always asks the fitting question on his show (or at least he used to), Who stands to gain? It should be evident by now. See also A Critique of Alex Jones' Endgam3 Documentary. Are these predictions and associations and endorsements a sign of hypocrisy and poor judgment or something merely accidental that is not worthy of our attention? Hope and fear for America may be a little more accurate. We hear that Hollywood went on strike but it appears the entertainment has just moved to the Internet.
Further evidence of the incredible delusion and fundamental contradiction of Alex Jones about Pope John Paul II. After listening to the Alex Jones show for years, as well as reading his network of websites, there is precious little to be found there about the Vatican corruption in history and in modern times. Even though Jones tirelessly rants minute by minute and spouts forth threats of revenge and attacks against this "NWO and their minions," we only find one or two mentions about the Pope's involvement of such! In the below link we find one such example without any comment or reference to the following quote:
http://www.infowars.com/articles/nwo/pope_bush_proposed_chaplain_nwo.htm Then we find another quotation of a CNN article about the Pope:

Pope calls for a New World Order
[ http://edition.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/europe/01/01/pope.ny.ap/ ] VATICAN CITY (AP) -- Pope John Paul II rang in the New Year on Thursday with a renewed call for peace in the Middle East and Africa and the creation of a new world order based on respect for the dignity of man and equality among nations. John Paul presided over a morning Mass inside St. Peter's Basilica to mark the World Day of Peace, which the Roman Catholic Church celebrates every January 1. He appeared in good form, delivering his entire homily in a strong and clear voice despite a relatively tiring holiday schedule. This year, John Paul directed his thoughts to continuing conflicts around the globe. But he stressed that to bring about peace, there needs to be a new respect for international law and the creation of a "new international order" based on the goals of the United Nations. He called for "an order that is able to give adequate solutions to today's problems based on the dignity of the human being, on an integral development of society, on solidarity among nations rich and poor, on the sharing of resources and the extraordinary results of scientific and technical progress."

Yet exactly 15 months later another article appears about the Pope after he dies. Alex Jones' webmaster Paul Watson wrote and published on his propagandamatrix.com website as well as both of Jones' prisonplanet.com and infowars.com websites the following article that remains to this day. Notice both the question asked and the ludicrous answer given to this vastly important subject. No other NWO, Bilderberger attendees, United Nations and EU promoters get this kind of treatment and reasoning. All others have received continual assault by this man and his friends. At the same time Ron Paul praises him as a great man of God, Alex Jones reasons thus:
|
http://www.propagandamatrix.com/articles/april2005/010405nearsdeath.htm
Propaganda Matrix | April 1 2005
CNN SNIP : Pope John Paul II's condition remained "serious" early Friday, but he appeared to be responding well to antibiotic treatment for a urinary tract infection that caused him to develop a fever, a Vatican official said. Thursday night, as his health deteriorated, the pontiff was given the last rites of the Roman Catholic Church, a Vatican source told CNN. --------------------- Isn't it almost BEYOND COINCIDENCE that the Pope had a feeding tube inserted and now looks to be on the verge of death? Is it far-fetched to suggest that this is a sign from God - a message delivered as 'edtorial commentary' from the big guy upstairs? A sign that major global upheaval is again about to take place on the scale of 9/11? Many accuse the Pope of being a New World Order shill but his recent statements were on the whole, excluding his pro-EU stance, in line with what an ANTI-GLOBALIST would say.
FLASHBACK: Pope Condemns Mercy Killings of Elderly
But then again he was a Bilderberg attendee and not so long ago called for a New World Order so it's still an open question. It may be the case that in the last year or so as his condition grew worse he began to regret his past actions and tried to redeem himself. ----------------------
Dear Paul;
---------------------- OCCULT SYMBOLISM OF TERRI'S DEATH, MAYBE OF POPE TOO? Rumor Mill News The occult numerology symbolism in these dates cannot escape us. Terri died on the 31st after starving to death for 13 days that is a mirror, they do this a lot... 13/31 not to mention that 13 is a very highly important number for them... Also, as far as the Pope goes... IF John Paul were to die TODAY that would make a lot of sense that they would pick today because...
ALL of the Fatima visions were given on the 13th
for the Pope to die on the 31st, the mirror date to the 13th would make PERFECT sense.... Unless he can hold on till the 19th as that is a very ritually significant day for them, but no, I predict here and now that when this pope dies it will be on the 13th or on the 31st of a month. The 13th has been so highly significant in John Paul's term as Pope, it has been prevelant all through his time as head of the church. It just might be today because after him being shot on the 13th and Lucia dying on that day, the same as the Fatima visions, it would maybe be a little too obvious to have him pass on the 13th, so they would go with the next best thing... the mirror date of the number, to keep the masses in the dark while sending the message loud and clear to those in the know.

Ron Paul Before the US House of Representatives, April 6, 2005.
Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to join my colleagues in paying tribute to the life and legacy of Pope John Paul II. Pope John Paul II was one of the great religious leaders of modern times, and an eloquent champion of human freedom and dignity. Unlike all-too-many misguided religious leaders, the Pope understood that liberty, both personal and economic, is a necessary condition for the flourishing of human virtue. The Pope's commitment to human dignity, grounded in the teachings of Christ, led him to become one of the most eloquent spokesmen for the consistent ethic of life, exemplified by his struggles against abortion, war, euthanasia, and the death penalty. Unfortunately, few in American politics today adhere to the consistent ethic of life, thus we see some who cheered the Pope's stand against the war and the death penalty while downplaying or even openly defying his teachings against abortion and euthanasia. .... In conclusion, I am pleased to pay tribute to Pope John Paul II. I would encourage those who wish to honor his memory to reflect on his teachings regarding war and the sanctity of life,
|
|
The hypocritical pro-war conservatives lauding him today have very short memories. Both conservatives and liberals cannot understand that the Pope's pronouncements were theological, not political. He was a man of God, not a man of the state. He was not a policy maker, but rather a steward of long-established Catholic doctrine. His mission was to save souls, not serve the political agendas of any nation, party, or politician. The Pope's commitment to human dignity, grounded in the teachings of Christ, led him to become an eloquent and consistent advocate for an ethic of life, exemplified by his struggles against abortion, war, euthanasia, and the death penalty. But no politician will ever produce even a tiny fraction of the legacy left by Pope John Paul II.
.... Ron Paul

Ron Paul Votes to make Bush the Decider What makes Ron Paul’s decisions about 911 evidence relevant is the fact that he voted in favor of the following Bill: http://news.findlaw.com/hdocs/docs/terrorism/sjres23.enr.html even though he was aware of the intentions of the administration to seek an actual war in that direction This law stated: “That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons.” The key part is “he determines”. He had already determined on the day of the event who was responsible. Paul now complains that this wrongly resulted in a war, but he was very much aware of the neoconservative plans for total domination (as fully developed in the PNAC policy a year earlier). Where is the evidence to justify a vote in that direction? He still supports that decision. This is a matter of concern and is inconsistent with anti-war or just-war philosophy when no proof exists for such a decision. That which was presented was mere statements without evidence amounting to proof. Mere assertion is not proof, and evidence is not proof until it is beyond reasonable doubt. For conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones, who believe there was and is evidence in a contrary direction, this then becomes a fundamental issue. It is a persistent decision that would indicate a reckless policy of aggression in view of what was a predictable outcome. This single decision paved the way for the entire mess we are in today. Even a Ron Paul meetup group leader on the ronpaulforums.com admited that this was a mistake. John Stevens writes: “Sorry folks - it looks as though this is a blemish on the good Doctor's stellar record in Congress.” “The best response I can give is that as good as Ron Paul is - he is not perfect. This vote was a mistake.” This takes away much of the strength of Ron Paul’s attacks against all the other candidates, as well as the administration, for their actions in relation to the war in Iraq. For he reasons the exact same way claiming that there was not sufficient evidence to justify such actions. Yet the evidence is still lacking for his vote. We would ask how one can favor the one intelligence analysis and reject the later? This is another fundamental inconsistency.

THE FOLLOWING IS NOW RETRACTED:
An Urgent Appeal by a Regular Working American:
Presidential Candidate Congressman Ron Paul is the only
Perspective Answer to the Present Economic and Political Crisis.
Hopeful Time Cover Page
After watching Ron Paul
carefully in congress for about five years now I have come to a different place
in my hope for politics in the United States. Like millions of others in
America I have long lost confidence in the system and have had no solid
candidates to vote for who are men of integrity liberty and justice. All those
who have had any chance of winning any major election in the US or Canada for a
long time have been people willing to listen first to big business and not the
everyday working people. So many of these promised real changes but in the end
only gave us lip service in focusing on a few surface issues. Over time
Federalism has grown out of control and so has the US debt. This debt is
irresponsible
and we need to make a
fundamental change
back to our roots to root out the problem.
Click below to go to my Ron Paul Sign Page
As a philosopher espousing
commonsense realism, I have watched Dr. Ron Paul carefully and am more than
excited to see him at the end of his life run for President. Ron has long used
commonsense to guide him in his voting record as congressman, even when
everyone else has voted in another direction. Here we find not only someone who
is totally predictable and consistent in holding up the constitution as the
wise law of the land, but likewise someone who is realistic in seeking to
address the needs of the people of his country.
While we all witness more and more the moral and political failings of other
leaders in the US government here we find one man who critics have nothing bad
to say about him.
Their only objections to him amount to a rejection of the philosophy of the
founding fathers and our constitution!
Yet the evidence amounts to proof that the philosophy of present political
theory and practice, in rejection to the ideals this nation was founded upon,
has only ruined this country and resulted in the very things the founding
fathers warned against.
As I converse with many people
across North America I find a lot of
indifference
. Many have lost confidence in the media and their governments. Many have shut
off the TV and are not even paying attention to politics, as
they feel modern politicians are just greedy liars and they cannot do anything
about it
. This sentiment is so widely felt that a few years ago a political scientist
at Britain's University of Strathclyde conducted a study and concluded that
lying is an important part of politics
in the modern democracy
.
"Politicians need to be more honest about lying," he told Britian's
Observer newspaper.
http://truthinheart.com/PoliticiansLie.html
This lying is so widespread and out of control that so many people have lost
confidence in the system. So what can be done to correct this and restore
confidence? While things remain the same there is
no hope
. Fundamental change is in order. This lying has to stop and politicians must
become accountable. The people are responsible for the actions of those they
vote for.
If the people would vote for men of integrity and not vote for anyone but men
of integrity then liars and thieves would not be acknowledged and would not be
nominated by the major parties.
The real problem is that the masses are easily deceived by showy appearances
and false promises. Big money and big entertainment rule the day. If you are
the person to prosper big business then big business will give you all the
money needed to put you in power and give you all the resources you need to
appear to be for the interests of the people. The game goes on and on and just
leads the masses into disillusionment. The trick is that the masses always are
fooled by the prospect of change. So they bounce back and forth from one party
to the other every eight years or so because they do not see that there is no
essential difference between them in reference to the essential issues and the
real needs of the hour.
At this very moment I
experienced another case in point. Someone just entered the room and expressed
the same "
skepticism
" about all politicians. This older friend is a typical American evangelical
Christian. They said they would be waiting for Ron Paul to "fall from grace"
and were not very hopeful that he would be any different from the rest who have
disappointed them. They said they would take a look later on. So it is my
objective to confront such people with the facts about Ron Paul (he has the
most impeccable record and there is no reason to doubt him).
In contrast to this
conversation I just got off the phone with another
disillusioned evangelical
friend who was very encouraged with my report about Ron Paul. He had brushed
testimony about him off before when another friend brought him up. But after
this conversation he said that if what he stands for on the above website is
true, things which he agrees with, then he and his family would get behind Ron.
Finally we have a living
statesman who has honor and integrity unlike the men without chests today
. Here is a humble man, who, without any help and a complete blackout by the
media, and to their astonishment, is able to very quickly gather a multitude of
grassroots supporters like none other in history.
There is a new movement picking up pace that some are calling the Ron Paul
Revolution. This is a very late last minute chance for America to get things
right.
America is financially and morally at the brink of collapse
and there is no other candidate that offers any solution to this problem but
Ron Paul. I have been fairly certain for the last 5 years that Clinton would be
the 2008 President but that certainty has really been challenged lately. That
sober and dreadful concern has been replaced with
hope
of a better day.
I would like to address the Dr.
Dobson Evangelical community right now. Who are you going to vote for? The last
two terms you voted for one that failed to live up to their promises. You are
disillusioned like so many others. You know that none of the 'front'
Republicans can give you the votes to win against Clinton. These men are just
the same kind of men we have had for so long. They are not even
true conservatives
. There are going to be far less votes for them then there were for Bush. And
just as I predicted last year, the seats went to the Democrats for the same
reason. So what are you going to do? Ron Paul is someone you can get behind. He
is a true conservative. And he is also stronger on protecting America than any
of the others. He is also now a front runner and is gaining popularity by the
day and with each debate.
Don't let big business propaganda confuse you about Ron Paul
as has Dr. Dobson and company. Take a real look at the man and his record and
compare it with all your alternatives. I know you will find him not merely some
lesser evil but clearly the greater good. His foreign policy has been
misunderstood and twisted. In fact it really is the solution for US in regards
to our national and personal safety and economy. You may have only listened to
one side of the debate, as big business is effective in keeping it that way.
Just look at how much time they give him in the debates compared to the others,
and yet he wins the debates! But I urge you to make careful inquiry and judge
righteously. Don't allow yourselves to be enslaved by popular opinion and big
business, which is selling you out by the day, but take hold of the facts and
use your influence to stand for the truth.
This is truly a defining moment in American history.
We have come to a day when the modern political philosophy has reshaped our
country and gradually eroded away most of the fundamental ideals the United
States was founded upon. These ideals are what draws so many people to this
country. These ideals drew me to this country. But when you get here you
realize that things are not the same as they were yesterday. It is less and
less, land of the free and hope of the brave. The defining moment pertains to
the decision we have to make right now. Shall we reject the United States as
represented in our constitution and founding documents and fully and finally
replace it with this new philosophy that results in what we see every day? We
actually find that our times are not singular, but are very similar to those
over 200 years ago when bureaucrats were arbitrarily running the day for big
business at the expense of the common man.
So what will you do?
You can either vote for big business and vote away all your rights and
protections in the constitution; or you can ignore voting altogether and let
the same thing happen; or you can do what you can to become informed and vote
for the only one with the track record to preserve the Constitution and serve
the American people responsibly.
