Entry: You Say You Want a Revolution? Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/you_say_you_want_a_revolution#26442 Post contents: Speaking as a Brit I have been following Ron Paul's progress since August of last year. It has been of interest to me because I believe that America is the last best hope of stopping what appears to be the inexorable drive towards "global governance", and a totalitarian tyranny whose full significance we shall only know when it is too late to do anything about it. The one element that seems to be missing from the Ron Paul Revolution is a sense of urgency. Dr. Paul himself comes across as being most comfortable in the role of the academic and likes to talk in the language of a theorist, although he is also endowed with great practical wisdom. Perhaps he has been left out in the cold for so long, and seen so much of the corruption of the political process, he now believes that the only way America can get back on its republican track is by reaching out to and teaching the principles of liberty to the younger generations. Given that the radical re-education of America into the zeitgeist of the new world order has been going on since about 1933, 75 years, he may have a point. From the standpoint of governance, Dr. Paul's view is that America has drifted far from the principles of republican government enunciated in the founding documents of the nation: the Declaration of Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights. This may have something to do with the fact that the Constitution and the common law were suspended by FDR in 1933, under the 1917 Trading with the Enemy Act (amended) whose key provisions have never been repealed. Inter alia this Act gave the President dictatorial powers, defined the People of America as the Enemy of the United States, and enabled the government to confiscate the people's gold as "booty". This is why, since that time, the government of the United States has been at war with the People, who are held in bondage as captives of the State. These provisions were issued as Proclamations and, in the language of the Proclamations themselves, can only be rescinded by the President himself. There was an effort in 1976 to overturn all the emergency power statutes and with the exceptioon of the FDR Proclamation, this effort was successful. It is my belief that this specific Act is the reason why America has gradually become a communist state, controlled by bureaucratic "soviets", while maintaining the superstructure of a Constitutional republic. For reference here is an essay that will shed some light on the subject.: http://www.freedomsite.net/emergncy.htm It is my belief that until these facts are made known explicitly, and graphically, and the deceptive actions of those ruling America since that time are examined in light of these facts, it is unlikely that a sufficient groundswell will develop in support of a return to republican government.
