Product Description
This Much Is True: You Have Been Lied To.
- The government is expanding.
- Taxes are increasing.
- More senseless wars are being planned.
- Inflation is ballooning.
- Our basic freedoms are disappearing.
The Founding Fathers didn't want any of this. In fact, they said so quite clearly in the Constitution of the United States of America. Unfortunately, that beautiful, ingenious, and revolutionary document is being ignored more and more in Washington. If we are to enjoy peace, freedom, and prosperity once again, we absolutely must return to the principles upon which America was founded. But finally, there is hope . . .
In THE REVOLUTION,Texas congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul has exposed the core truths behind everything threatening America, from the real reasons behind the collapse of the dollar and the looming financial crisis, to terrorism and the loss of our precious civil liberties. In this book, Ron Paul provides answers to questions that few even dare to ask.
Despite a media blackout, this septuagenarian physician-turned-congressman sparked a movement that has attracted a legion of young, dedicated, enthusiastic supporters . . . a phenomenon that has amazed veteran political observers and made more than one political rival envious. Candidates across America are already running as "Ron Paul Republicans."
"Dr. Paul cured my apathy," says a popular campaign sign. THE REVOLUTION may cure yours as well.

IMPORTANT American Document!! October 12, 2008

REQUIRED READING: This book reveals the lies every American suspects of their government. Other than the Constitution which is being destroyed, this book is an education of protecting our liberties.
Brilliant! October 11, 2008

Mr. Paul is undeniably one of the rare rational voices from Washington. He was extremely effective in this presidential race and created a stir due to the innovative and sensible solutions he had to offer. His ideas about freedom and liberty resonate with many Americans. And he explains very effectively and coherently that these are the very ideals espoused by the founding fathers and the framers of the Constitution, but have been repeatedly ignored to the extent that the US has lost its strategic advantage as one of the greatest nations in the world. Even though one might not endorse all of Mr. Paul's ideals he has to be given credit for offering fresh insight and unique/creative solutions to the challenges that the US faces at home and abroad. He is one of the very few in the Congress, who take the government head-on with regard to the interventionist foreign policy. This book offers the most impressive analysis of the factors that have led to the recent economic meltdown. It was written before the current crisis, but it raises the red flag. I am not sure that I would go as far as calling him the `Thomas Jefferson of our day', but he surely does come close!
Government not wall street October 11, 2008
Robert Decell (usa)
We are about to elect a president that played a role in the root cause of our financial predicament. Obama was in league with a group called acorn whose primary goal was to get funding for low income homeowners. Calling upon his egalitarian God and disciples, he was able to arouse his almighty spirit of compassion no official dares cross. Anyone tempted would be labeled racist, bigot, etc. Obama stands to gain his reparations either way. I said it years ago and I'll say it again, the egalitarian god trumps all Gods, laws, traditions, and reason.
Yes the fed started the mess in the early 90s by gerrymandering the rate. But Greenspan knew this was the only way to avert recession since inflation now devoured the two income wage earner. Wall street pigs knew this would be the last sloping hence the feeding frenzy. There is no turning back from this one unless housing takes a dramatic dive which will also cause unimaginable pain. We might do well to study Argentina. But this country had a hedge. Where is Amercias?
"You say you want a revolution..." October 10, 2008

Warning this book is the equivalent of waking from "The Matrix" (1999), and seeing the true nature of reality. From the prolog forward to the very end Ron Paul holds nothing back and for those few folk being introduced to this reality and how we have strayed from the constitution, can be a real eye opener.
The message is simple but it is the implantation that can get a bit complex as there are no two sides to this story as those that manufacture politics today.
The real strength of the book is that even though one day the details may be dated that we go beyond theory and point to real situations and existing people instead of just theories and what ifs.
I bought the book; I also bought the CD's as they help enforce the book during my daily commute. We also use them for discussions at work.
This book has many truths that are not just for the radical or inspired and will be a useful reference for your library in the years to come.

Maybe there is hope for our country October 9, 2008

Ron Paul is unique in American politics - honest, incorruptible, principled. His book succeeds on two fronts.
First, providing a readable account of the problems that we face as the ruling elite shred our Constitution, destroy our economy, and drag us bleating into a police state.
Second, giving us a blueprint for stopping the decline and taking back our lives and freedom from those who would rule.
Dr. Paul has shown the way. The next step - actually voting out the corrupt politicians, turning away from the single-party Republicrat institution - is up to us.
