How is this man not our President?

You know that feeling you get right before a big election? The total and complete indifference that is akin to having tea or coffee with your meal perhaps? The apathy that I was once accustomed to experience when the conversation turned towards politics has since been replaced with a burning and intense passion and desire for real change. As we all know far too well that nothing of substance really changes within our federal government. Ron Paul proposes real change, and his source of inspiration is our Constitution.

America's Roots: Paul shows the wisdom of the Founding Fathers

Anyone curious about the Founding Fathers should read this book. They saw the mess of England, dealt with their own mess through the Articles of Confederation, and knew exactly what they were looking for when they created the Constitution: A government with strict limits. Ron Paul explains why less government is best, and shows how the U.S. Constitution allows for nothing less.

Good on domestic policy, bad on foreign policy

Ron Paul is certainly the most interesting politician of his time. I am behind his domestic policy 95% of the time, but his foreign policy is very naïve. Yes the founding fathers did not want us going abroad...but they also lived in a time where the United States could free ride off the security the Brittish Empire brought to the Western World. Geopolitical changes have also brought an end to the days of noninterventionism because our oceans can not longer protect us from planes, missiles and terrorists. And no, I don't buy into the idealistic argument that "they" would just leave us alone if we left them alone. Our enemies abroad do not seek peace with us any more than our enemies here at home really want equality and multiculturalism. What they both want is the destruction of the West. However, Congressman Paul makes an excellent argument that if we don't trust big government here at home to fix problems, why should we expect the same government to go abroad and fix the societies of the Middle East? The answer is we shouldn't. Just because we break it, doesn't mean we have to fix it. Interventionism can occur for strategic reasons without it becoming the Wilsonian foreign policy of George Bush.

Right to the point

I've been following Ron Paul for about a year now and even I learned some new things reading this book. I think it lays out the case real well for local government and self government versus the large intrusive Federal government we now have. Our country needs to right the ship now while we still can

Great book!

You would be surprised to see how our government is screwing us so bad and how they spend our hard earned money. Or maybe you wouldn't be surprised. This is a great book.
