Ron Paul: Free Trade, Not Sanctions, Will Solve Iran Nuclear Crisis

Ron Paul has a point and we ought to try this route. It is not one of "compromise," it is of decisive action to get something accomplished in improving the state of Iran, which our foreign policy for the last 30 years has FAILED to do. I used to be a neocon, and now I am a rational libertarian. We need to consider the Dale Carnegie approach, which is not placating nor a display of pacifism. H.G. Wells may understand this approach, as would others seeing the wrong-headed nonsense of the U.S. continuing its militant offensive stance, just as militant as those we accuse those we seek to control. No one said the U.S. should not defend its sovereignty, and strongly and rightly so; but we cannot afford economically nor morally to pursue undeclared wars and reckless nation building.

Ron Paul 2012 - vote with your conscience. None of the other candidates have sacrificed through war-torn military service nor have they the honest record and conviction of Ron Paul. He is the only candidate that has a potential to prevent an economic disaster. Our greatest threat is economic, and of the sovereign threat - defense of our borders - Ron Paul has committed to protect.

Recently the ghost of Thomas Jefferson appeared to me and asked that I pass on the following message:

THOMAS JEFFERSON ENDORSES RON PAUL

Shame on you the leaders of America who have taken my country to the point of destruction with your modern two party one monopolistic elite establishment that robs the people of their wealth to satisfy the groups of special interest that finance and control you. Shame on you the mass media for serving as the mechanism to make this possible. And shame on you the people who have accepted this fate while being marched like sheep to the destruction of our country and your own well being.

Did I, and others, not warn you of the problems that would result from a large bureaucratic federal government, foreign escapades and entanglements, and banker control of our economy? Shame on you the American people who I envisioned to serve as a shining light by setting a good example for the rest of the world. Shame on you for instead producing, following, and taking seriously, big government spending flip flopping leaders such as Obama, Romney, Gingrich, and a Congress composed of self-serving scoundrels.

With deep sadness I have watched this process develop for many decades but I cannot remain silent any longer for if you don’t hear the bell of Liberty ringing now I fear that you will have given up America as we have known it for more than 200 years.

Therefore I appeal to the political leaders who still have a conscience to support one of the few leaders left who supports the Constitution and the rightful course for America’s recovery- RON PAUL. Many of you know better and need to decide if you will go down in history as a fellow patriot or be among those who sold out your country during one of its greatest times of need.

To those of you belonging to perhaps the most important profession responsible for preserving our great democratic Republic – journalism, I plead the case of equal coverage and time for the one true patriot in your current presidential race – Ron Paul. Many of the “debates” that I have seen resemble the promotion of certain candidates over others in a dictatorship.

To the people I plead to awaken before endless wars, bankruptcy, and Great Depression result in bitterness, anger, frustration, and violence against one another, which will destroy you into a 3rd world banana republic heavily equipped in arms but left with no spirit, no civil rights, and massive poverty from which it will be very difficult to recover. The final bell rings for preserving your Liberty by uniting under presidential candidate Ron Paul.

I appeal to the American people to unite under Ron Paul so that recovery can begin now, as maintaining the present course will no doubt lead to catastrophe and disaster within the next four years.

Yours in Liberty,

Thomas Jefferson

were i do agree with this information, i fail to see any point. Our government knows that setting up sanctions will lead to war, why do you think we are pushing so hard for them. our leadership wants more war. Its sad that the only person running for office who sees the power of peace in trade, and non violent methods is called a wack job.

Pray for America, Pray for Ron Paul
