The Federal Reserve Bank is and always has been a private corporation driven to make as much $$ as possible and the US population is one of its main profit centers. It is now and always has had a stranglehold on our economic system and even worse than all that, a stranglehold given to them by our own congress!

You cats can talk all the shit you want about Ron Paul and what a wack job you might envision his ideologies to be but the simple truth is he was the ONLY presidential candidate calling for an end to the Federal Reserve Bank to stop its pandering of our economy, the ONLY candidate wanting to make our government fiscally responsible and give back the states rights that the Fed now dangles over their heads by witholding federal funding when they refuse to play ball, put an end to the rampant illegal immigration and many, withdraw our forces from the lose-lose situation we are embroiled in in Iraq, and many more things all core to the survival of our country.

Yep, I know the old argument about the limits of presidential powers and how no president could really just go about doing these types of things without congresses approval. However, if one is not sworn to make such changes, has not made them pivotal to their campaign, what are the odds that they will EVER undertake any such changes at all? In case that answer is evading you it's called SLIM TO NONE !

The other side of the coin is that IF Ron Paul were elected to the office, or for that matter ANY candidate they COULD lobby the American Public to implore their elected officials to move on legislation intended to make such changes possible.

Now then, for the real meaty questions ..... has Obama or McCain either one even mentioned the idea of disempowering the Federal Reserve Bank? Do either of these candidates make mention of STOPPING the NAU initiatives underway? Do either of these guys stump their constituents to support minimalization of the behemoth we know as the Federal Government and return the rights to the states the Constitution guaranteed that have been continually usurped by the Fed instead ?

If ANY single supporter of the above mentioned front runner candidates can prove that a SINGLE answer to the above listed questions is a FIRM yes, I sure would like to hear validation of that because I have heard NOTHING even vaguely similar to such ideologies from either of the.

What can we do about all this? The answer is short, sweet and simple : research every poitical candidate up for election in the coming elections and use the one weapon you have and VOTE with your head! Do not vote because the candidate shares your skin color, or because they make vague promises resembling the old "2 Chickens In Every Pot" BS, vote for them because they share your concerns about our nations issues and people and want to do something about them
