Ron Paul is not going to do any such thing. He has big dreams, but nothing will come of it. It's sad, but that's the reality.

There is something fishy about an organization that doesn't want to be audited. If they are on the up and up - they will allow themselves to be independently audited. The fact that they resist it and did not have this function from the organization's inception, speaks volumes of deceit.

The partial audit was proof enough... Once congress gets on board... the British controlled "Fed" will be exposed...

Apparently that isn't a big enough clue to alert the dumbed down masses as to it's intent.

Of course Ron Paul has big dreams. The problem is that the other presidential candidates have none whatsoever. Their actions have been determined by those who own them. Dream big and pursue it. It gives hope, unlike the Status Quo.

This is a little different, their contention is if they reveal who they made loans to, those banks will be stigmatized and could affect their solvency.

But it will never happen and all who who think it will have learned nothing about how the FED operates. Every single time auditing has come up, it has been shot down by the majority in DC. The same will happen. Ron Paul isn't the first misguided genius who thought they could get this done. The bottom line is it won't happen, it's an election campaign promise and he knows it. I would like to see it happen, but it hasn't EVER happened when tried.

Please lay out the proof.

My offer of a big cheer for the person who identifies the firm that is out of business, that alledgedly owns the Fed, still stands!

Who cares?... If a bank is about to fail... Let them... We don't don't need a bank that is about to fail...

That would be Lehman Brothers.
