The Lesser of 2 Evils (I think not)
Back to the roots of our country and the grass roots movements that have changed history. I am picking up my picket sign and joining the revolution, the Ron Paul revolution. A few months ago when I was contemplating having to vote for the lesser of 2 evils and weighing the possibility of not voting at all, I was feeling like a traitor to the founding fathers and those who have died to protect my right to live in a democracy. Well no more, I feel the passion of this campaign and the people of this country who want to go back and start from the beginning with the constitution. We have deviated off the path and it's time to head home. Every time I go to the ocean I have the anticipation of getting into the sea, and as I walk out into the water I feel the tide pulling me in. The feeling overwhelms me every time, the power and beauty of something stronger than myself, I feel this way about this election. Historically in our country if a certain party has been in office for 2 terms the tide usually turns for the other side, but wouldn't it be something if the people said no and decided to change history. Is it possible that our country could go back to being proud to be an american, where patriotism and personal responsibility were the norm. Our country hasn't had an inkling of that since Ronald Reagan was in office. If you had given up on this election, and if you have let the media influence who you think stands a chance to claim the white house then I challenge you to take a peek at the candidate Ron Paul. Politicians usually remind me of wolves in sheeps clothing, Ron Paul reminds me of the tortoise and the hare. Slow, deliberate hard work can win the race. Do your part, use your constitutional right to spread the word. Help make history, or at least to dethrone the media.

i know i am a pretty emotional person, but that video gave me the chills...how inspiring.
thanks for sharing
I know what you mean, I'm actually excited and I never get excited about politics. I normally loathe it.
I was wondering what you think of this clip: it's ron paul on the Bill Maher show...it's definitely a strange friendship....hehe

Yeah I've seen it, that is why I think if he gets exposure he could win this thing because he appeals to such a broad audience. You can't really argue with the constitution, and even though he is pro-life and a social conservative his plans make sense.
And he's from Texas. That gets my vote.
(I hope y'all would know that I am kidding, but it does stir up a little bit of emotion that may not be understood from someone who is not from there)
