“But I do wonder if Ron Paul will get assasinated if he ever gains some traction with the mainstream American public.”
first step would be to try and steal his thunder
part of being a good politician is knowing when to jump in front of a developing trend so you can claim to be leading that trend (Gore and the internet, Gore and global warming, etc)
if the Ron Paul train really took off, both Dems and Reps would be jumping in front of it and blowing their horns madly
the media is bought and paid for in America so very easy to marginalize Mr. Paul and the next thing you know, Ron’s train has become Palin’s train
the Tea Parties are a good example of this – started as a grass roots movement but after it caught on, numerous politicians were having Tea Parties and acting like the parties were their idea
and isn’t that when the swine flu scare first broke … don’t assemble in groups because you might get swine flu … no tea party … mumble mumble … conspiracy theory … add more foil to hat …

it is interesting to note that the last time the Fed was under serious pressure to reveal their books, the sitting president, who happened to be the one bringing the pressure, was shot (by a magic bullet that changed directions by 180 degrees some 3 or 4 times during its trajectory according to the official coverup, oops, I mean investigation)
now we have Ron Paul and his bill to audit the Fed …

4plexownerParticipant“As I always point out, it is like faith in Jesus — you either see him or you don’t.”
I didn’t care to see this statement in Chuck’s article – I think religion is just one of the many ways that intelligent people control less intelligent (and more gullible) people – but to each their own
I believe it is necessary to have faith in the gold bull market – that is how you hold your gold when every talking head in the world is bloviating about how gold is about to drop to zero overnight
without faith a gold bull might have sold his gold at $600 or $900 and missed the most exciting phase of the gold bull market when gold shoots up to $5000 or higher
the facts and fundamentals support this gold bull running to $5000 and higher but an investor has to have faith in that outcome to invest and remain invested in the market

Richard Russell talks about a “sold out bull” – a sold out bull is someone who was invested in a bull market but got shaken (scared) out of his position somehow – according to Richard, the sold out bull is very unlikely to re-enter the bull market and is likely to be one of the most vocal advocates that the bull market in question is over
the analogy in the equity markets would be someone who got scared out of stocks in the 1987 crash and never bought another stock – then, for the next 12 years, maintained that the bull market was over and anyone invested in stocks was a fool – they were ultimately correct (after being wrong for 12 years) but missed out on one of the largest bull markets of their lifetime

I believe it is necessary to have a big picture view of the world and what is going on in it
this ‘war for resources’ is part of that big picture IMO
while the US has been wasting their resources in pointless wars, China has been going around the world buying up the resources they will need in the future
Australia, Canada, Africa – China has secured streams of resources from these countries and more while the US has piddled their resources in the desert (and continues to do so)
China plans for the next 100 years while the US plans for the next quarter and the next election …
