Gandhi said, “First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they attack
you, then you win.”This old truism seems to be playing out in the case of the
candidacy of Dr. Ron Paul for president. At first he was ignored. He was
ignored in the early republican debates, getting one question for every 2.5
his opponents received. He was ignored by the corporate media in the early
running too, as they assumed everyone would naturally gravitate toward
their pre-selected candidates. Something funny happened on the way to our
corporate election though; the people weren’t buying it anymore.........

I have been the same thing this author has written. We can't afford another corporate and corrupted president who wants to socialize more stuff to spend on... we just can't afford it and the only one person I see that is dealing with that issue is Ron. All this talk about globalization of America in spreading freedom is a front for corporations to enter these countries faster and make more money at OUR expense...
