A revolutionary wind is sweeping through America, and Ron Paul is riding in front of it. Resistance is building. Americans seem to be finding out that neither political party whether Republican or Democrat are meeting their expectations. The Republican party -- as Paul has repeatedly pointed out during recent debates -- has fallen away from true conservatism. Ron Paul's pro freedom, small government message is resonating with millions of Americans who have become wary of threats to their privacy and liberty in a post September 11th America that is becoming increasingly authoritarian every day.

The establishment is used to having the leading presidential candidates safely tucked away in their pockets. Ron Paul is threatening to break the mold. Carroll Quigley, mentor to Bill Clinton wrote in his book "Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time" that,

"The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy..."

Ron Paul's popular support, and victory in recent debates, winning  represents a rejection of establishment Democratic and Republican candidates who do not represent Americans desires, but rather corporate interests and the globalist organizations who are behind them.

Saul Anuzis, chairman of the Michigan Republican Party recently called for Ron Paul to be banned from future presidential debates.

Paul focuses on issues that have become immensely popular, with the alternative media leading the way in the coverage of those issues. National ID cards, illegal immigration, the North American Union, a rising police state in America, and income taxes are some of these issues.

There is little doubt that the establishment will continue to attack Ron Paul. They're afraid of him and the motivated patriotic Americans who are behind him. They will smear him, and attempt to silence him as well as his supporters. Yahoo! completely omitted Paul from their 2008 Presidential election coverage, but upon outrage from supporters were forced to later include him.

If Paul's supporters want him to succeed, they cannot depend on the mainstream media to cover his campaign as they will with other candidates. Paul's campaign has the possibility to be a historic moment for America and a victory for freedom loving Americans.

Get active, get involved, the rallying call of freedom is sounding.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty; the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you; may your chains set lightly upon you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!" - Samuel Adams
