The end of an empire comes when the currency is destroyed..

Ron Paul could play the role of spoiler in this election.

First of all, it’s a point of view question. To me everybody else is trying to spoil Ron Paul’s run.

Secondly, let’s have a look at the rest of the Republican field (let’s leave Dems aside for a moment). We have 5 people whose positions on most issues are so similar it’s difficult to distinguish between them. They all support war and interventionalism. They all are neoconservatives and have neocon advisors. All proclaim their support of conservative values, but most of them have a proven history of being very liberal at times. It’s not bad to be a liberal, but it is bad to be insincere or a flip-flop. How can you trust a guy who makes false promises just to get elected?

They are so similar that even GOP establishment has difficulties distinguishing them. As a result, they take turns as “frontrunners” and “media darlings”. And the rest of the pack uses every opportunity to attack the leader. They all have enough skeletons in the closet to fuel the attacks.

In sharp contrast, Ron Paul verifiably has a very consistent political record that spans 4 decades. He is a man of principle. He has an enormous online following that translates into a very creative real-life grassroots campaign. He raises more money from individual people than any of those, and wins an overwhelming majority of Republican straw polls.

This Sunday, December 16, on the anniversary of Boston Tea Party Ron Paul’s grassroots campaign organizes the greatest online fundraising in history. I encourage everyone to visit the website

Paid in Dollars, Some Americans Are Struggling in Europe

PARIS — Erica Nevins’s faith in the dollar was shaken the moment she pressed a crumpled $1 bill into the hand of a little girl begging for money on the streets of Marrakesh, Morocco.

“I don’t want this. This is nothing,” Ms. Nevins recalled the scornful reaction of the child, who demanded more.

Since then Ms. Nevins, an American fashion executive, has replayed that moment over and over in her head as she confronts the harsh reality of living on a dollar income in Paris and then moving to costly London. “The absurdity of this is that it’s so true,” she said. “A dollar really means nothing. It’s scary.”…………..
