The media has a new program, it's called denial and blame the Russians. Nevermind the content of the email, Americans cannot understand what's happening in the emails.

The Democrats are really the crooked bunch fabricating stories about Trump as a misogynist when no real stories exist. They never aired all the stories of Hillary threatening women about coming forward about their relationship with Bill. Monica Lewinsky had to come out or else Hillary would have her removed or killed.

Even the one Latino outreach campaign called "Tacobowl" has been denied reporting by CNN.

CNN themselves is implicated in the email hack as working with the DNC to get stories posted.

Clinton New Network confirmed.

I know a lot of you don't care but this is not a democracy no matter how much you wish to brush it aside as basic everyday corruption. Have we become so cynical we don't care anymore.




Ok, my rant is over now, i'm just mad about the fact this issue is over with and we've all moved on like marry sheep.


Money talk's pure & simple those who have money make the rules & everything gets swept under the table.
It doesn't help that the general public is too easily distracted. As soon as (we the people) started getting good & mad something else happens & tend to forget what was the other we were so upset about.
I don't think we really forget he just tend to get over it & push on looking for something else.


I myself think the timing is a bit uncanny.

Do you suppose they just held it until it would be the most destructive?

We are being manipulated all day, every day. Most people are too involved with there own lives to even care about what is going on. You can tell by reading POC that there is a huge lack of knowledge about how government works.

It's a curious thing - the money issue.
Pursuant to the Constitution, Congress has no power to create money.
It can coin money (stamp bullion) or borrow money. It cannot create bullion.
Nor can it give the power to make money to anyone else.
(Federal Reserve NOTES are IOUs - debt - not dollars)
. . .
Guess who does have the inherent power to create money (aka "medium of exchange") to facilitate trade?

You may have seen evidence of this power all your lives.
Look at the small print on a coupon denominated in goods and services (not money), and note : "cash value 1/20 of a cent".

As you can imagine, if the majority of American people ceased using "their" money (worthless IOUs) and switched to private promissory notes, their regime would implode.

The Russians have historically proven themselves to be quite trustworthy.

I'm starting to think it is not possible for democracy to be a permanent form of government. The nature of it basically ensures that it becomes corrupt.

• [] Reduce Federal spending by 93%;
• [] Disenfranchise recipients of public money because it is a conflict of interest for them to vote;
• [] Indict and prosecute the public servants guilty of perjury, malfeasance, counterfeiting the monies of the United States of America, among other crimes;
• [] Inform the American people that participation in FICA / Socialist InSecurity is 100% voluntary, and there is NO CONTRACT that compels Congress to pay "benefits" regardless of the years or amounts one has paid in FICA taxes;
• [] Support the republican form of government (Art.4, Sec.4,USCON);
• [] End legal enforcement of any contract for usury in a court of law;
• [] End limited liability for artificial persons;
• [] Audit the gold and silver stocks of the U.S. government, and restore coining lawful money.

I can't find any, so I am pessimistic that any solution will be forthcoming. It really doesn’t matter who is elected to office, in November. All Americans lose.
No one but Paul

Government workers cannot actively campaign and/or use their position to help someone seeking political office via the Hatch Act. I am starting to think more and more we need something akin to the Hatch Act for the media. Or at minimum, disclosure requirements. If a Fox News story is de facto sponsored by the GOP, we should know about it. If an CNN story is de facto sponsored by the DNC, we should know about it. Independence of the media is completely dead and in this 'information age' with 24 hours news and the rush to story via the internet, the media has enormous influence in public policy and political campaigns. We as Americans deserve to know when that influence is bought and paid for.

Listed 10 specific topics.

Ron Paul may not have listed those ten word-for-word in the exact way that are listed above agreed.

However all ten of those general ideas certainly have been preached by Mr. Paul.
