Steven from BoomanTribune.com writes, “Why we will stay in Iraq”
This is a great article from Steven over at BoomanTribune.com. Sums up a lot of what Ron Paul talks about. I try not to be a doomsdayer but you would have to live in a pretty deep hole not to see the economic problems that plague our nation. The war in Iraq needs to end, not just because it is wrong, but because we can’t afford it.
We are borrowing (and printing) hundreds of billions of dollars to pay for a war that was not authorized by Congress nor the American People. 70% of Americans want us out of Iraq, yet there are only 3 candidates running in 2008 with the balls to say we need to get out “NOW”. Ron Paul, Mike Gravel, and Dennis Kucinech are the only candidates promoting immediate pullout, and Ron Paul is the only one with a true understanding of the financial problems that face this country.
Ron Paul’s Ideals are radical to some, but there are only three major issues that the next President needs to address; The war in Iraq, the sad state of our financial system, and the ever decreasing freedoms of the American people. On these subjects Ron has no equal.
This country taxes nearly half of every dollar earned by its citizens. If we dropped these needless wars we could all but eliminate the federal income tax. The best way to promote security at home is to have a strong economy and a united nation that is independent from the politics of foreign countries. As history has proven, we do not make ourselves stronger by intervening in world affairs, we make ourselves weaker.

Cynicism and defeatism are NOT options to be entertained.
“We are in the eleventh hour of losing this Nation…”
What Ron Paul needs most is “Money” I’m using this and it is working very well… consider it… Everyone can afford it!!!
Consider the only Conservative Presidential Candidate…
Greetings my name is: Joel Lemieux I am retired and currently live in the beautiful mountains of Western NC… I Have been an avid supporter of Dr Ron Paul… “We have to get Ron Paul elected, firstly and foremost, in the primaries”… Then on to the Presidency!!!
http://leadership2008.bravehost.com
However, if this is to come about (Ron Paul 2008) we will require a war chest… We are attempting to get (1) one Million people to send Ron Paul only $7.00 each per Month… Thanks… Joel…
Meanwhile Consider The Following:
Our Only Choice!!! Leadership 2008
Can Ron Paul Win? On The Issues - A Resounding YES!
Knowing this let us then look at the most important benefit… that Ron Paul brings to the Presidency…
“Leadership”
Leadership is Action Through *Example Not Position…
(It is not a position of power nor being in the right place at the right time, neither define leadership).
It is defined by setting the example through taking action on such Leadership Traits as Truthfulness! Honesty! Fidelity!
Ron Paul Has Acted Admirably On All These Leadership Traits:
“Truthfulness” first and foremost… Then: Principle, Integrity, Honesty,* Fidelity (to their oaths), Honor, Virtue, Compassion, Courage, Vision, Wisdom and Faith.
DARE TO COMPARE
Can anyone bring forth any other candidate (GOP or DEM, etc.) that can lay claim to all of these characteristics?
I believe we are all hard pressed to do so… “Strike That”. I “KNOW” we ARE hard pressed!
Check out this site it may give you some promo assistance… It has a promo area where everything can be printed out for free… It also has “send to friends” area for e-mailing… Hope this helps you …
http://leadership2008.bravehost.com
Get the word out “SHARE” with your friends… And don’t forget the $7 per Month “we all can afford that” remember each of us do not need to get thousands of people… just set a weekly goal and have any/all of your friends duplicate your efforts… It will be persistence and perseverance that will elect Ron Paul…
PS: Start with flyers at the Universities put one on each and every bulletin board on campus also look for support from the student GOP… Then have them go to other campus’s… Also, don’t forget High School Seniors- by the time elections roll around they will be old enough to vote!

“In the time of universal deceit, telling the truth
is a revolutionary act” GEORGE ORWELL
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the galleys, heard in the very hall of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor—he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and wears their face and their garment, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation—he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city—he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared.
— Cicero: orator, statesman, political theorist, lawyer and philosopher of Ancient Rome.
