Personal Message from Ron Paul

What a dose of goodness the Nevada caucuses turned out to be, taking silver as #2 and gaining four more delegates. Thank you for all the hard work in spreading our message of liberty, peace, honest money and free-market prosperity. Your work is a great sign of hope for me and all of Americans - past, present and future.

A state like Nevada, with its rich silver mines and extensive history of silver minted coins, reminds me just how awful the Federal Government has done with our economy. Silver dollars, constitutional coins dating back to 1792, are weighed at .775 ounces of silver. While they were worth $1 during my father's era, today they represent nearly $14 in silver. That is, our counterfeiting Federal Reserve has pounded the dollar to 1/14 of what it once was.

My opponents in both parties all fall under some type of print-and-spend Keynesian. Is there anyone talking about honest money? Can we allow bureaucrats in Washington to decide our economy's fate with their finger on the print machine? We need a wave of truth wash over the politics of America, truth about the economy, the war, who is to blame and how we know we can attack the problems we face as a country. We need to abolish the IRS, strictly abide the Constitution, climb our way out of deficit and rid of our grossly-expensive, grossly-dangerous empire conquest all around the world.

In recent places I have visited an astonishing number people have mentioned the large amount of young voters and supporters we have. Heck yes!! And it is not only our youth, but all of us who are young at heart. We all have a place in making this country a free, prosperous and caring state. Work hard, be open to new ideas and promote optimism - that is inside all of us.

Our amazing fundraising efforts on the day celebrating the great hero, Martin Luther King, are a true marker of the support we have as a banner promoting civil disobedience against tyrannical government, peace abroad and a dedication to non-violence. Thank you all for your contributions.

We have a big schedule ahead and I look forward to showing the world that the hope needed for America will be found in our philosophy, our passion and our desire for revolutionary change.

Ron Paul
