Product Description
There is no doubt that Ron Paul has become the enchanter of the disenchanted, but the best way to-understand him is to take a quick look at his voting record.- He has never voted to raise taxes.- He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.- He has never voted to raise congressional pay.- He has never taken a government-paid junket.- He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.- He voted against the Patriot Act.- He voted against regulating the Internet.- He voted against the Iraq war.--In fact, Congressman Paul's consistent voting record prompted one of his congressional colleagues to say, "There are few people in public life who, through thick and thin, rain or shine, stick to their principles. Ron Paul is one of those few." Operating from a unique strain of libertarian republicanism, Ron Paul's beliefs are refreshingly logical, even if you disagree with his principles. He is a Republican in the truest sense of the word, not at all what that word has grown to represent. At a recent Republican debate, the candidates were asked if they would go to war with Iran. All of them bumbled on about consulting lawyers, the cabinet, and their delegates. Ron Paul, outraged somewhat, stated quite simply, "This idea of consulting attorneys just baffles me. Why don't we just open up the Constitution and read it? You're not allowed to go to war without a declaration of war!" This is his call to arms for a nation that needs to change, but doesn't know how. Barry Goldwater defined a conservative in the 1960's, and with this manifesto, Ron Paul redefines it for the modern day.

An honest citizen in Congress August 16, 2008
the straight story from one of the few that actually read what is presented for voting, and paying out your current taxes and your promised taxes that your children will pay. If we have arrived at the money crisis of the century then I want advice from an honest citizen versus 'Buy an SUV' because it's good for the economy.

Since I don't consider myself nearly as intelligent or eloquent as many of you, I won't bother posting a huge review. What I will say is that this book impacted my life in a huge way. I had my first epiphany when it came to politics. I was one of those types who just never cared, I never saw a real change. But this is it, this makes so much sense to me. You must read and draw your own opinion. By the way, when people give poor reviews on the basis that it's simplistic, it's not. JUST STICK TO YOUR PRINCIPLES AND IT CAN BE SIMPLE. Simple as that, no need to get complex when you just stick cut-and-dry to your principles and your laws. It might not be perfect but it is fair, just and certain.
The Revolution: an education August 14, 2008
I was not sure what to expect when I ordered and starting reading this fantastic book by Ron Paul. This man is a genius. I am not quite finished with the book. I keep rereading selected parts.
This book, for the most part, is a history book, a common sense guide, a window to Ron Paul's soul, a beautiful book on all levels.
He is by far the best Presidential candidate out there. Unfortunately main stream media did not allow us to find out.
Thank goodness for this book. http://www.CampaignForLiberty.com
Ron Paul...You're the Man!
A True Masterpiece in the Misdirection of Contemporary American Politics and Simple Remedies for Those Ills August 13, 2008

This is perhaps the most influential American political book out in the market right now touching a wide range of issues from international policy to domestic, economic, and social issues. This is a fantastic read for Liberty loving Americans everywhere and should be of particular interest to conservatives and libertarians alike.
Ron Paul has created an astonishing plan that I did not fully realized until reading this manifesto. In a day and age when American government continues to grow and steal the fruits of its citizens labor in a current day slavery in the name of taking care of them this book cuts to the heart of current problems, which is the size and scope of government that the founders had not intended.
Race relations, declining domestic investment, a declining US dollar, eroding civil liberties, quickly bankrupting government, insolvent social programs, the problem with the health care situation, and many other pertinent issues that we hear politicians endlessly claim they will "change" with more government problems are explored, how they came to be problems, and what can be done to solve these problems once and for all.
