Update: Keynote now featured on Keynotes.org
I had the pleasure on March 17, 2012 of speaking to attendees at the 2012 Colorado Libertarian State Convention in Aurora, Colorado at the DoubleTree. My keynote, “Government In Our Hands”, was well-received and a lot of questions were asked. It’s a controversial talk that challenges government, money and politics as we know it in the 21st century.
The desire to have limited government in our lives shouldn’t be a conservative issue, but an American one. In a video that has gone viral, Rick Santorum quips to a journalist: “Vote for Ron Paul if you want limited government.” This is a damaging admission by Santorum. If you are the “conservative choice,” why endorse another candidate?
So what exactly is Santorum offering? He’s just another fake.
Who is Marc Heidemann? He just happens to be Ron Paul’s former landlord. Heidemann leased Paul office space in Southeast Houston during the earlier years of Paul’s career in Washington.
In this interview, Heidemann offers a priceless story about Ron Paul and his impact on the current political landscape in America.
My good friend Ugly Dog supports Ron Paul for President in 2012! As former Obama supporters, we learned a painful lesson we dare not repeat.
Restore America Now. Vote for Ron Paul in 2012.
For months, Americans watched the Middle East uprising, mass civil unrest in Europe and elsewhere without much concern. Long ago, I warned that these instabilities would find its way to America. That time is here.
From #OccupyWallStreet to intense gridlock in Washington, America is now facing a great collapse after decades of easy money, arrogance and ignorance. And growing numbers of Americans are now forced to take action.
In this video, I discuss current events, alternatives to Washington, #OccupyWallStreet, and other issues that affect America and the world.
I submitted the letter below to Governor Hickenlooper’s office on May 26 @ 9 am.
Mr. Hickenlooper,
If you stand for the US Constitution, I urge you to stand for the people and ban the TSA statewide for its blatant violation of the 4th amendment. This is America. We do not violate the people’s rights. We stand up for and protect them.
Do you stand with the people and the constitution, Mr. Hickenlooper? Isn’t that what public officials swear to, or is it simply theater with a little business thrown in?
Regards,
Ronald Lewis
Denver, Colorado
Dear Federal Reserve System: If you believe in what’s right, please stand with me, the US Constitution and others to make America better. The Federal Reserve is unconstitutional. This is fact. Put your jobs on the line. Save the future of your friends and family. The American people are suffering from high energy and food costs. Our currency has lost more than ninety-percent of its purchasing power since 1913. This isn’t fair. It’s not right. It’s wrong. The American people are tired of being misled and lied to. The Federal Reserve will self-destruct at the heavy hand of Ben Bernanke’s policies. He does not have the power to right the destructive course we’re all on. Any hope for containing the damage caused by the Federal Reserve is beyond its control.
I urge you to do what’s right. For America. For your fellow citizen. For our future. Call for Bernanke’s immediate resignation. Be the change within. Be the solution to the problem. Stand up for the ideals of America. We can make our country whole again.
The US Government just breached its $14.3 trillion debt ceiling (translation: Washington is ‘officially’ broke). The US Dollar is at a three-year low (translation: fewer dollars to save, vacation, invest, shop, etc.). 90% of the Dollar’s purchasing power has evaporated since 1913. The Federal Reserve, Treasury Department and others are calling for an increase to America’s debt ceiling. Just say NO!
Stop the Fed’s destructive monetary policy on the US Dollar. Support competing currencies in America under HR4248. Call 202-452-3000. Ask for Ben Bernanke’s office or public affairs. Tell them he’s fired. Demand accountability now! Time is running out for the Federal Reserve and the US Dollar. Both will self-destruct thanks to quantitative easing, the Fed’s $3 trillion balance sheet, and the many liabilities the Fed has no control over.
Grill the Federal Reserve on high gasoline, food and commodities prices. Ask for the truth. Call 202-452-3000. Ask for Bernanke’s office. Tell them Ben Bernanke is fired. Ask for public affairs. Ask them about monetary policy. Demand they be accountable to you as a taxpayer. Grill the Federal Reserve on monetary policy at 202-452-3000.
If you are a democrat or republican, it’s time to ask yourself some tough questions. In the last twenty years — under the leadership of democrats and republicans — Americans have been dragged through recessions, bubbles, and endless wars that were never constitutionally declared or in the best interest of the people.
Both parties have failed to serve America and protect the U.S. Constitution. We deferred our responsibility to maintain a moral government to corrupt politicians and showbiz politics. We were bamboozled by the spin and image of both parties.
Ultimately, it is we the people who must pay for the recklessness of D.C. politics in the form of decreased purchasing power, freedom, and liberty. Is this what you stand for as an American? The “real war” is right here at home and we’re losing to incompetent and corrupt politicians we’ve allowed to lead us.
We have reached a critical juncture in America’s history. The problems we face cannot be solved by the current crop of “leaders” or voting for the same people each election. We must think openly and rationally about the damage both parties have done to our beloved country. Our job as citizens does not end at the voting booth — that’s only the start of it.
Democrats and republicans in Washington have given Americans plenty of reasons to defect and chart a new course in American politics. The leaders of both parties have had ample time to prove their love for America. Instead, they chose to give us a whopping $12 Trillion debt and a $2 Trillion war.
Are the policies and actions of your elected officials acceptable to you?
If you care anything about your country, leave your party, or prolong the pain we’ve yet to experience.
