Upcoming supporter produced documentary about Ron Paul

www.forlibertymovie.com

As the 2007-08 presidential campaign cycle offered up the usual slate of Washington insiders, Ron Paul, an obscure Congressman from Texas brought an alternative voice that challenged the political establishment.

Advocating a philosophy of sound money, a non-interventionist foreign policy, strict Constitutionalism, and individual liberty, Dr. Paul inspired a unique grassroots movement unmatched in American history - the repercussions of which continue to reverberate today and into the future of the American psyche.

For Liberty: How the Ron Paul Revolution Watered the Withered Tree of Liberty follows this historic campaign from the perspective of grassroots activists, and showcases the unique, often bizarre, yet groundbreaking projects they undertook as they brushed aside traditional campaign methodology.

For Liberty is currently in production and scheduled for a mid-September, 2009 release on 16:9 widescreen DVD.

MIAC / Missouri Police Report UPDATE

The outrage is spreading beyond Missouri and has quickly gone nationwide.

(As well it should! If the garbage in this report is being spoon-fed to Missouri's Officially-Costumed Jack-Booted Thugs, then it is likely reaching every state.)

Here is a link to the PDF of that despicable MIAC report:

A liberty-loving 1st amendment supporter from the Benton County, Arkansas Ron Paul Meetup group created some bumper stickers and t-shirts to help us all express our displeasure...
http://www.zazzle.com/verkmastare



I found this article by Patrick Wood to be exceptionally informative, especially for those who don't understand what "MIAC" is and how dangerous their reports could be...
http://www.rightsidenews.com/200903184047/homeland-security/the-radical-polarization-of-law-enforcement.html


Here's a quote:

"A February 20 report entitled "The Modern Militia Movement" was issued by the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) that paints mainstream patriotic Americans as dangerous threats to law enforcement and to the country.

Operating under the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the MIAC is listed as a Fusion Center that was established in cooperation with the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Justice.

Because authenticity of the report was questioned by some, this writer contacted Missouri state Representative Jim Guest (R-King City) who had personally verified that the report had indeed been issued. Rep. Guest is chairman of the Personal Privacy Committee and is a prominent leader in the national blowback against the Real ID Act of 2005 that requires states to issue uniform driver's licenses containing personal biometric data. (See Guest warns against Big Brother, Real ID)

Rep. Guest stated that he was "shocked and outraged" at the report, which clearly paints him and many other elected state leaders, as a potential threats to law enforcement."

...

"According to the National Criminal Intelligence Resource Center (NCIRC), a Fusion Center is "a collaborative effort of two or more agencies that provide resources, expertise, and/or information to the center with the goal of maximizing the ability to detect, prevent, apprehend, and respond to criminal and terrorist activity."

As of 2006, the NCIRC listed 50 Fusion Centers in various states.

Most importantly, the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security are the driving forces behind Fusion Centers..."

(Read the full article.)

I also recommend checking out this discussion:
http://www.alipac.us/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=150491


Which includes...
"I was also repeatedly assured that no officer would profile vehicles with political information on the vehicles or because of profiling; he commented that the officers take the Constitution very seriously and would never encroach on our civil rights. If we ever felt that our rights were encroached upon, to contact the police department in question and let them know and an investigation will be launched.

With all that being said, he wanted me to inform EVERYONE that they have set-up an email account specifically for the MIAC concerns. He asked me to direct everyone to that email and they will look into everyone’s concerns. That email is:
MIACINFO@mshp.dps.mp.gov
(Editor's note: Of course, they may have configured this email inbox to just send form-letter auto-replies, and then promptly direct your email to the Trash... )



And in this article by
Paul Joseph Watson:
http://www.infowars.com/missouri-governor-stands-behind-miac-smear-report/

"Both Governor Nixon and the Missouri Information Analysis Center may have acted foolishly in refusing to denounce the report for what it is - a completely inaccurate smear which if anything makes America less safe from terrorists because it identifies as terrorists some of the most patriotic groups one can imagine.

The fact that the document clearly constitutes libel and defamation has not gone unnoticed by Chuck Baldwin, Ron Paul and Bob Barr, who have agreed to pursue legal action if the report is not withdrawn.

The three former presidential candidates have sent a letter to Missouri officials protesting the MIAC report. Appearing on The Alex Jones Show yesterday, Baldwin said that he and his fellow letter signatories will consider legal action if the letter does not result in a repudiation of the MIAC report and its absurd allegations."


Missouri's Campaign For Liberty posted this response, which includes an invitation...
"We would like to invite all law enforcement officials to our Freedom Celebration featuring Judge Andrew Napolitano of Fox News and Congressman Ron Paul on Friday, March 27th, at 8:00 p.m. at the Millennium Hotel in St. Louis. This event is free and open to the public and will allow officers to experience just how wrong the MIAC report is in its irresponsible profiling of Campaign for Liberty Members."

Even Glenn "controlled opposition" Beck (the Judas Goat) on the corrupt FauxNews has "reported" on it...
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,509929,00.html
(Of course, he simply made light of it, joking with far-left-liberal-libertarian Penn Jillette. It was so badly "reported" by Beck that a friend told me he heard Beck's report, and thought it was SATIRE. He was shocked to learn that it was actually true!)


Finally, to sum all this up:

We all need to learn to clearly distinguish our friends from our enemies,
and those that might become our friends from those who never will be.

Break The Matrix - Update

Just a quick update to let y'all know that "Break The Matrix" has taken it's next step forward, adding (yet another) social networking site for Ron Paul supporters to meet & exchange ideas.

Why bother? Because hopefully this will become much more than "(yet another) social networking site." The goals that Trevor Lyman (yes, the "moneybomb guy") and crew have for "Break The Matrix" are actually something more than the usual efforts:

"Very simply, we are building our "BreakTheMatrix" media company to produce and transmit a wide ranging array of interesting and entertaining media content through BTM radio and television networks."
- Rick Williams CEO of Basic media, Inc. (parent company of "Break The Matrix")

Notice the key goal of forming "radio and television networks."

One thing that we have all hopefully learned by now is that the ignorant masses are blindly led by the so-called "mainstream media" (MSM). What many people do not realize is that 99% of television channels and most of the FM radio stations are all owned by just SIX "media conglomerates." Think about that...

When it is all boiled down to the essence: Only 6 men (and their cronies) run the companies and "provide the direction" for everything most Americans see and hear. These 6 men may have petty rivalries between them, but they are all in general agreement concerning their elitist "Bilderberg-esque" goals.

There can be no change in "public opinion" when the "public" only hears half the story - or gets just one side of the debate - or is told that only MSM-approved candidates can win a particular election. Apparently, a very large majority of Americans still foolishly trust these media giants, and there is no end in sight to their addiction for TV and radio entertainment.

So, if you want real change, it is necessary to take the battle off the Internet (where we have already won) and on to the airwaves, where the elite currently control virtually all sides of the "national discussion." That is the direction "Break The Matrix" and Basic Media, Inc. seems to be heading. If you agree with that direction, get yourself a free user account there, visit the site regularly, then log on to moderate up the good ideas (and, just as importantly - moderate down the idiots and professional noisemakers). This way, hopefully soon the ideas and information from the Internet site will be ready to take beyond the PC and onto radio & TV... So the drooling masses will at least have the option to hear the truth if they bother to listen and think for a change.

Will it work? God only knows.

Is it worth a try? Sure it is.

Set up your user account today, and why not add me to your friend/contact list while you're at it...

Revolution March - "Ozarks Express" update

Bureaucracy is an evil thing, a ravenous consumer of productivity and resources, and a destroyer of hope.

For over 6 weeks, the Washington D.C. parks and recreation division permit department has held the "Ron Paul Revolution March" in limbo.

The public response has been predictable: Outrage, but little action. Some are suggesting that permits be dammed, we all show up on June 21st "unorganized" and sans papers. Others are suggesting that such "lawless" behavior would be counter-productive and Ron Paul would likely not participate in such an event.

The bureaucrats think that people in this situation will get their hackles up, turn on each other like wild animals, and the whole idea will eventually fall apart. Are they right? Time will tell.

Still others are suggesting that the "Tax Day" / "Freedom Rally" - which was planned (and issued permits) many. many months ago - long before Ron Paul suggested the whole "Grand March" - is the best thing going right now.

For more details about the current situation:

Revolution March

Tax Day / Freedom Rally
http://www.freedomrally.info
http://www.grannywarriors.com/rally.htm


I don't know how many thousands of people are planning on attending any of these events, but I do believe that as of now, far too few are likely to attend to gain any real attention. The anti-war protests in D.C. last January drew about a half-million persons, yet the Elitist MainStream Media gave it little more than a passing glance - as that protest apparently didn't suit their agenda at the time.

Due to the successful delay tactics and fracturing of support, it is extremely unlikely we will see anything close to 500,000 people attending any of the currently scheduled events. (I do hope I'm wrong, but I really don't believe that I am.) You can rest assured that the evil MSM will mention nothing good about a "relatively small" (under a million participants) protest march that is connected with Ron Paul. The best thing about the idea for such a single big "million person march" was that it would have helped buoy up support among the Ron Paul Revolutionaries... But now even that possible result has been diminished.

This past month, I ran a Pledgebank.com pledge that if at least 10 other people signed up for the pledge to share a chartered bus to Ron Paul's "Grand March" - I'd arrange the trip and go with them.

The deadline just passed... Sunday at midnight. Only 7 people pledged, falling 3 short of the goal.

I wish to extend my sincere thanks to those of you reading this who did sign up. Taking the pledge was no small gesture and showed courage and commitment. Thank You.

And to the hundred or so others that knew about the pledge, but decided not to take it, I do understand your myriad of different points about why you declined, and that's OK too. No hard feelings, we all have our reasons.

My question is: What are YOU going to do now?

Will you give up all hope - throw up your hands - accept a fiat dollar that has lost 96% of its value in the past century - accept $4.00/gal. fuel while the fat oil cats grow even fatter - accept "REAL ID" and carry your papers with you at all times - maybe even plant some of those RFID's that started out for the NAIS cattle program into your own body (you know, for YOUR protection!) - will you give up any and all essential liberties for the temporary illusion of security?

Or will you do something - anything - to rage against the machine, draw a line in the Ozark gravel and say to the Elitist Balrogs: "This Line You Shall NOT Pass!"

The "Ozark Express" was an idea. But as with all ideas, if it doesn't suit the time and the need, it should be modified, or cast aside in exchange for something better.

There are currently plenty of good and worthy efforts underway to continue the rEVOLution. Some liberty-loving and constitutionally-knowledgeable people from our Meetup groups are running for local office, and that is a good and noble effort that could benefit from your volunteer support. Some are working to reform the Republican party from within, while others are bypassing the political process and devising other more direct actions to effect change. What you choose to do is up to you, but don't let it be said that you did nothing.

And along those lines, I don't wish to discourage anyone from going to any of the various national rallies/marches/protests, if that is what you'd like to do and you see some benefit to it that I have overlooked.

If any of you wish to take up the task of organizing such a trip yourself, contact me and I'll pass along the research and contacts that I spent many hours collecting. Who knows, I may even go with you, but I'm not making any more promises. I intend to focus my efforts on actions that have more immediate and tangible results.

But that's just what I'm doing. How about you?

Remind voters: An Election is NOT a "Horse Race"

I've been "Shocked" & "Awed" (but mostly just disgusted) at how the Big Elitist MainStream Media has gone to unprecedented lengths to manipulate this presidential primary election.

Of course, "media" manipulation of elections is nothing new. It has been around for practically as long as elections have existed, but it is the extent and form of the current manipulation that has both caught my attention and upset my stomach this past year.

In days gone past, a person could expect a newspaper with the name of, for instance: "The Arkansas Democrat" to sing the praises of their fav-rave (D) candidates, while pointing out the brothel-dwelling booze-swilling habits of all the opposing (R) candidates. That is what "partisan journalism" was all about back then, and most people understood this and kept it all in perspective.

These days, the hapless TV-addled masses have set aside all reason and discernment, and have somehow embraced the big media lie that "all MSM journalists are NON-biased, independent observers just reporting the facts for you to decide." It is enough to make you wonder how the masses can actually be so completely gullible? (Those same herds of sheep, who all believe - secretly or openly - that they actually are "politically savvy")

One important thing that has struck me recently is how the media is all about describing the current presidential election as a "Horse Race."

There are many reasons this is done, though none of them are good journalistic reasons. And, as is the norm when the MSM is involved, it is also deceitful and inaccurate.

A horse race is much different than an election.

In a horse race, the object (for the bettors) is to pick the winner before the race is over.

In an election, the object (for the voters) is to pick the right person for the job.

It is not the job of the voter to pick who is most likely to be the eventual "winner" for any particular elected position. It is the duty of the voter to place a vote for the person best suited for the position.

However, if you listen to the Big Elitist MainStream Media too much or too carelessly, you'd think that the opposite were true. With almost no exception whatsoever, the MSM goads, manipulates, and even coerces you vote for the "winner" as they see it, in their (lack of) infinite wisdom.

"After all," they say, "Americans love a winner. YOU don't want to waste your vote on a LOSER now, do you?"

The MSM, just like the burnt-out gamblers scrounging for loose change outside the stables whilst looking for their next sucker, will be HAPPY to give you the "inside poop" so you can pick the next Trifecta.

But that is not what good journalists should do, and that is not what a good election is about. The purpose of good journalism is to give the audience the best and most accurate information about all the candidates; either without blatant bias or (better yet) disclosing the sources' actual bias clearly beforehand. The purpose of the election is to cast your vote for the person that you believe (based on all the independent research you can manage) best represents the policies you believe in.

When you speak to everyone you know in these next few weeks before the primary election (and I hope you will), please remind them of their civic duty. Their duty to vote for the best person for the job, period. Not the one most likely to win according to the MSM "bookies," but simply the right man for the job.

This year, that man is absolutely and unquestionably Ron Paul.

Understanding the Media bias

More and more of us everyday are learning to see through their tricks, but some still don't get it (yet).

Almost every time I read on a Ron Paul supporter's blog or website how supposedly "positive" a new MSM article about or TV interview with Ron Paul is, and then actually READ or SEE what the MSM has done, I have to wonder when enough of us are going to wake up and realize this:

The Big Elitist MainStream Media is America's #1 Enemy right now.

I know I often repeat this, and I recently have even been criticized by a certain few people online for [to paraphrase] "constantly gnawing this bone that I have to pick with the MSM." But the reason I do is in part because understanding the Media's underhanded role in this election is essential to getting Ron Paul elected. Why you may ask? Goethe answered it best...

"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free."

If you don't see how the MSM is manipulating you, you'll never be free of that manipulation.


I want you to be free, therefore I will continue to point out their deception, and call for the overthrow of their control. If you don't see their manipulations, it will be much more difficult, if not impossible, to free others from that grip, and to achieve our most important short-term goal: To elect Ron Paul as president.

For whatever reason, even people smart & wise enough to realize what an excellent President Ron Paul would make, still refuse to "take the red pill" and see the truth about the media.

To those that don't yet understand, please take time to learn why this is important:

The media is the greatest manipulator of public opinion in America. The media is controlled by a half-dozen or so mega-conglomerates (owning over 90% of all TV channels and almost that high a percentage of newspapers and magazines). Those few that control the media are all of a like mind (not really a "conspiracy" - but more of a general agreement of purpose). That purpose is to gain power, riches and influence, and to maintain the status quo that has rewarded them with these riches beyond all reason. Their purpose is to support their elitist friends, and their elitist agenda, which is to expand their power to the point where one day they control the entire globe (and they are closer to achieving it than you probably think). THAT the reason they do everything possible to thwart Dr. Paul...

Ron Paul isn't controlled by the elite (unlike all the other frontrunner (D) or (R) candidates), and Dr. Paul has proven that he is steadfastly incorruptible for over 30 years. Even worse than the fact that he is "uncontrollable" by the elite, Dr. Paul also will do everything in his power to return to a law-abiding, constitutional government, and to strengthen America in every way... And THAT will not only slow (or perhaps even stop) the elite's plans for a global one-world government (controlled by the few elites, of course), it will also reduce their power, influence, and perhaps even riches! And that is something they cannot abide!

So, through their complete control of the MainStream Media, the orders have gone down through the rank and file of the wannabe-elitists who have sold their soul to their masters: "Do everything you can to undermine Ron Paul's campaign."

First, they tried to ignore him. But with tens of thousands (or more) of tireless grassroots supporters getting Ron Paul's name out in every way possible, ignoring him soon wasn't enough....

Then, they started to attack him. Not "too" openly (with some exceptions), lest their horrible bias become so obvious that even the average entertainment-addled public skool graduate couldn't miss it. But as some of them are actually capable of the art of manipulation, they carefully craft ways to use words and images that turn away people who would otherwise support Ron Paul. Note how most images of him the media uses are not the friendly, kindly-faced man that we know Ron Paul to be, but instead are scowling, angry, or otherwise negative in appearance. And they never miss an opportunity to say "he may have [insert something amazing here - like breaking donation records], but he still can't win." That is an old and devious tactic (wholly unsupported by reason or logic), that unfortunately sinks in to Joe and Jane Average if they hear it enough times - UNLESS we refute it with the truth often enough through our own efforts, and those of Dr. Paul's campaign.

The few hundred super-elites are America's (and all patriot's) worst long-term enemy. It is they who are the generals... The puppet-masters of the MainStream Media. But it is the MSM that is the most dangerous short-term threat, as they are the ground troops battling in the elite's very real war to destroy The United States of America, and create their "New World Order" - with those same unelected super-elites at the top, pulling everyone's strings.

Our would-be puppetmasters will be stopped, eventually. History has proven that all empires must fall - collapsing under their own weight. No amount of technology or crafty intelligence can prevent it. The only question remains: When?

The elites know that a President Ron Paul will derail their plans, that is why they use their MSM to try to prevent it.

And that is why WE must do everything in our power to elect Ron Paul.

This isn't just an election, it is war between the elite and everyone else. We cannot allow ourselves to fail...

Do whatever it takes to beat the MSM in these next few months!

OUTRAGE! Big Media "gatekeepers" Spin yet another poll

Read it and scream:
http://www.cnbc.com/id/21257762

In a post dated Oct.. 11th 7:21PM ET, Allen Wastler (Managing Editor, CNBC.com) tried to spin the poll shenanigans...

An Open Letter to the Ron Paul Faithful
http://www.cnbc.com/id/21257762

Excerpts:
"...I haven't seen him [Ron Paul] pull those kind of numbers in any "legit" poll. Our poll was either hacked or the target of a campaign. So we took the poll down."

"But you also ruined the purpose of the poll. It was no longer an honest "show of hands" -- it suddenly was a platform for beating the Ron Paul drum. That certainly wasn't our intention and certainly doesn't serve our readers ..."

I guess they don't consider anything that doesn't support their self-annoited frontrunners "legit" - even ones conducted OFF-LINE by county Republican parties - where Ron Paul has dominated.
See: http://www.ronpaul2008.com/straw-poll-results/


I urge you to read between the lines of these shallow platitudes.

1: They didn't like the results they were getting.

2: They were worried that Ron Paul might gain some positive traction from the results.

3: They tried to sweep the results under the rug to serve their elitist masters.

4: They've been swamped with responses from outraged (and hopefully now FORMER) viewers, and are puckering up to our "cheeks" to try to stop the avalanche already in progress.

Folks, this is just typical of Big Media. They want it all their way. They are owned (literally) lock, stock and barrel by the elite few that run this country, and they will do anything to retain their power. They recognize that Ron Paul is a threat to their continued gravy train. And they'll do anything to stop him. Taking down favorable polls is just one of the first steps...

Americans: You need to recognize your true emeny! It isn't the taliban, al-qaeda, the communist chinese, or anything the Big Media tells you to fear... The TRUE ENEMY is the elitist-run BIG MEDIA themselves! The major media (run by less than a dozen companies) have been manipulating you with the aid of, and to the benefit of their elitist masters.

If you don't recognize how serious this is, you need a big wake-up call. Before you dismiss my OUTRAGE here as "extreme" - consider for a few minutes what the Big "MainStream Media" and their elite masters (such as the CFR) are doing to you, and the country you claim to cherish.

If, like many of us, you've taken an oath to protect and defend the constitution of the United States (from enemies BOTH foreign AND DOMESTIC), then you need to re-focus TODAY on your true enemies: The elitists and their propaganda wing... The "MainStream Media."

If you agree with me, then express YOUR outrage to these would-be "gatekeepers" - starting with Mr. Wastler at: politicalcapital@cnbc.com - and continue the fight onward from there...

If you still don't agree with me, don't bother commenting on this to say how it's just a misunderstanding... And I really shouldn't be so reactionary... And I really should calm down... Don't bother doing anything at all. To paraphrase Samual Adams: "We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."

To all other true patriots: Don't relent... Keep the heat on the Media in EVERY way possible. Don't let them sweep Ron Paul under the rug. When (not IF) Ron Paul wins one or more of the January primary elections, big media will go on full-attack mode to ruin Ron Paul. (Don't pretend otherwise - it is THEIR necks that will go to the chopping block if he is elected, and they know it.)

Show CNBC what our "blowback" is... Donate some extra $$$ to Ron Paul TODAY, and show Big Media what a jump in donations Ron Paul gets when they attack him.

Don't forget to join and participate in your local Ron Paul Meetup group. Don't be discouraged by anything your would-be masters on TV tell you - keep getting the truth out about Ron Paul. He SHOULD WIN, and he CAN WIN with our help. DO IT TODAY. For the future of you, your family and loved ones.
