From the Summit of the Moral High Ground

A catalogue of corruption, abuse and at times even physical violence has been compiled throughout the campaign of Ron Paul and his supporters over the course of the last seven months of campaigning. It comes down to the end game, so I thought it would be interesting to look at what is still continuing. The first is an ongoing lawsuit against the Republican Party Attorney Richard Gilbert explains that American popular support for Presidential Candidate Ron Paul is so strong that it was impossible for Americans to tolerate blatant criminal acts that were being repeatedly committed to steal the election.   Ron Paul's nomination is too important and his legacy so respected that millions of Americans are demanding Romney be disqualified for election fraud. A mountain of evidence has been amassed from Team Romney's careless trek from state to state breaking multiple election laws as an organized crime syndicate.   While Team Romney keeps spinning news on his differences...

Courtesy of libertystickers.com It has been a most interesting Republican Nomination Battle and whilst there are still those who want to believe that the dream can become reality at the National Convention in Tampa the focus of the Campaign for Liberty has moved on to ensuring that certain candidates are elected to Congress and the Senate and that some influence is exerted on the policies of  Mitt Romney at the forthcoming campaign. But with approximately 10% to 20% support across the United States including many registered Democrats and Independents being drawn to the Liberty message these are votes which the Republican Party need to hold onto if they hope to win. With Ron Paul attracting over 50% of the votes of the under 30 age group and amongst Hispanics, the very groups which the Republican Party requires to win the election. In fact the person who polls best is Ron Paul, he alone would beat Obama in an election but he can only get the support of 17% of Republicans. ...

Boris will be Mayor of London The Telegraph reports "The Conservatives are reeling from a series of political setbacks, many of which have their origins in last month’s controversial Budget, while their coalition partners, the Liberal Democrats, are expected once again to pay a high price for coalition unpopularity.  Labour should be taking full advantage of the Government’s mid-term blues, but despite healthy opinion poll leads, Ken Livingstone looks set to lose to Boris Johnston in London’s mayoral poll - while the party is also under threat from the Scottish nationalists north of the border.  As well as two other mayoral votes (in Liverpool and Salford), 10 cities will be staging referendums on whether to have mayors. Some 5,000 council seats in 180 councils will also be up for grabs on 3 May." Recent elections around the world have shown that there is a deep dissatisfaction with the established parties. In the United States Business Insider Reports ...

GOP nomination battle renewed in the wake of Santorum's exit  Rick Santorum has “suspended” his campaign. All the pundits tell us that the real race for the White House can begin. But I wonder if that’s true. Maybe there is more Republican Party insider fighting coming alongside the general. I say this because, in watching Santorum and other conservative and religious Republican leaders talk about what Santorum’s suspension means, I am not hearing unconditional support for Mitt Romney. The evangelical community began reaching out to Paul almost immediately after Rick Santorum dropped out of the presidential race. The Republican Party has had a gruelling primary season, highly fragmented. Among the tribes in the party, we have the establishment Republicans who coalesced around Mitt Romney as the most likely candidate to give President Barack Obama a good run for his money in November, though the latest polls show Paul as the winner in a head to h...

My astrologer predicts that Obama will win this fall  then all hell breaks loose in the world  You probably don't know but I have a regular annual consultation with an astrologer in Los Angeles around my birthday and The first question I asked this year was, 'Will Ron Paul win?'. His answer was much the same as he told me last year when I asked the same question of myself and that was 'no, but he fundamentally changes the way that people think'. I'm still trying to make that change, to awaken people to the harsh realities now whilst there is still time to cushion oneself against what is to follow. The funny thing about human nature is that you can tell people the truth but if it is not what they want to hear then they do not listen . Still God, the universe or whatever you wish to call it has a funny way of forcing you to hear. The sooner you get the message the less painful the lesson turns out to be. I remember the first time I stumbl...

Well the shenanigans in the US electoral system continue to mount up as Minnesota becomes the latest state to show signs of unfair procedures.  Ron Paul has now gone as far as to describe recent events as 'shenanigans' but has not as yet made any complaint of unlawful behaviour. Establishment GOP leaders in St. Charles County, Missouri, shut down a caucus and had Ron Paul supporters arrested in order to avoid enthusiastic Ron Paul supporters from taking over the caucus March 17. Ron Paul on 'Shenanigans' "It definitely got wild," Eugene Dokes, the county Republican chairman, told the Associated Press after the aborted caucus, claiming that: "I had to tell a number of people not to approach me, not to come from behind me and not to scream at me. I think there was the possibility of someone trying to inflict personal injury or harm to me." There's no evidence Dokes was threatened in the more than dozen videos of the caucus that app...

This week’s Republican primaries certainly taught us one thing: Virginians love Ron Paul, and they’re pretty fond of Mitt Romney, too. Paul captured roughly 40 percent of the Virginia primary vote, by far his best non-caucus showing of the entire campaign. Romney won the remaining 60 percent. That’s good, but it was not even Romney’s best performance of the night on Super Tuesday. By the way, Romney and Paul were the only GOP contenders on the Virginia ballot. Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich failed to file the necessary paperwork, so voters could not choose them. Did that affect the results? Of course it did. How? That’s harder to say. Answering that question forces us to consider the framing effect , a human tendency to answer questions differently depending on how the options are presented to us, even when the options are identical . Strictly speaking, the framing effect was not at work in Virginia, since the choices presented to voters there were not identical to the cho...

Randy Reudrich GOP Alaska Chairman The Latest Facing Accusations of Electoral Impropriety It has been another strange week in world politics, first the Russian Presidential elections took place and I and anyone else who cared to log in could watch the ballots as they were cast anywhere in the world. The C-Span network and Fox News streamed live from webcams set up around Russia in what is unprecedented transparency during an election. The Western Press has of course held that the election was fixed, that there was no real alternative to Vladimir Putin, that the media coverage was biased, and so on and so forth. Of course those exact same criticisms were levelled in Jersey at the last election. I don't think they are necessarily unfair criticisms but it seems the same standards must apply to all elections anywhere around the world. And then there is the good old USA where the question on everyone's lips is 'How did Ron Paul lose Alaska?' Paul's ardent sup...

This is the eve of what is known as Super Tuesday, not so super as in the past where up to 50% of the States would have made their views known, this time just 11 States are voting. Dr Ron Paul It’s important to keep a couple things in mind. Chief among them is that it’s very unlikely the outcome will meaningfully affect the current contour of the race. Right now, Mitt Romney is winning, and he’ll probably still be winning on Wednesday morning. As Matthew Dickinson, a political scientist at Middlebury College, points out in a  clarifying blog post , the candidates’ shares of delegates and the popular votes are not likely to change. But that doesn’t mean Super Tuesday is not important. What’s at stake is momentum—something none of the various frontrunners has managed to maintain. Romney has won the last five contests (although Maine is questionable). Most political insiders discount Georgia, assuming that Newt Gingrich will win handily, and Rick Santorum has a good shot ...

With apologies to Tom Gruchy, but it has taken a while to condense the lessons from the US political process into a legitimate idea for the future of Jersey politics. On the 280th anniversary of George Washington's birth the final four met to debate the issues. A lot of speculation has arisen as to whether Mitt Romney will have Ron Paul as VP (or perhaps his son Kentucky Senator Rand Paul). Even the  Guardian  which has ignored Paul's presence to date is now looking at the candidate with fresh eyes and recognising that his campaign may be delivering results whilst not always getting headlines. But what was more interesting for me was the way that all four candidates were drawing together on policy and it seems to me that behind the scenes the Republican Party is drawing up its manifesto: (converted into Jersey English) Return welfare from the federal government to the States (return welfare from the States to the Parishes) Balance the budget and work to pay down the debt (this...

Dead Men Do Vote It seems that America may need to pay a little more attention to ensuring democracy in its own nation rather than trying to force it upon other nations... the 'irregularities' grow more pronounced with each contest. In Iowa - Romney won, then, tied then lost and now we hear that 18 precincts votes were lost. In South Carolina it was dead people voting, in Florida it was non-US citizens, in Nevada the single live televised vote (representing 53% of the population) showed Ron Paul at 60% of the vote, whilst the official results held that Paul came in third with 18.8%. The official result shows that Paul increased his vote by just 1.5% whilst his votes have increased by 200% to 300% in the every other State. By the time the Maine results were FINALISED with just 85% of the counties reporting and many precincts reporting no votes cast at all, the US public was no longer buying that anything reported was the truth or that Ron Paul had not won, the second place by 1...

Something strange is occurring in the US republican nominee elections, the results are badly mismatched, their is no consistency between the results and the opinion polls. Dead people are voting in their thousands and millions upon millions of dollars are being spent on advertising. This week saw some 'encouraging' employment statistics as the number of people who are 'actively seeking work' declined... the key phrase is 'actively seeking' this simply means that more people have given up on what has become a fruitless search and the short lived rise in Obama's popularity lasted as long as it took for people to un-spin the announcement. The philosophies of the TEA (taxed enough already) party is gradually being drawn into the mainstream of the Republican Party with the fear that the Ron Paul supporters (which is the vast majority of young voters who know that their future is already mortgaged to the hilt and do not wish any further burden to be imposed upon t...

It happens in the US, it must have happened   in Jersey. No one I know voted  Bailhache, so  how did he top the poll? CONTROLLED U.S. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS? The clues are clear but only to the alert observers. In year 2000, for the first time a gross inconsistency showed itself as an anomaly. The exit polls in Florida and Ohio did not match the election results at the local level.  For a full generation, the correlation had been over 90%, as it should be, since people exiting a voting center reveal their votes with consistency. This is the left hand and the right hand coinciding genetically with the same human standing before the clipboard recording the exit poll.  The lapdog subservient US press reported the anomaly as people changing their minds, or not admitting to the clipboard their actual voting preference. Numerous statistical studies showed the anomalies in colored form, to expose Florida and Ohio for its voting system fraud.  Yet another blatant f...

Ron Paul a man who does not compromise interests A man who is willing to sacrifice office to conviction In the finest tradition of 'Real Leaders' Sometime ago now I examined the principals of individual responsibility  as the foundation of the path to enlightenment  as propounded by every single one of the world's religion. Max Weber (one of the founders of Sociology) wrote "The real leader's task is not merely to compromise interests as if politics were like a market place, but to take a stand on issues that transcend material interests. A person is more likely to care about such issues, and be willing to sacrifice office to conviction, if he is financially independent - he must live 'for', not 'off' politics." Newt Gingrich is one politician who compromises  interests as if politics were a marketplace. There may be some in Jersey who follow his example The majority of political leaders in the former empire have historically attained pre-emin...

Troops are due to pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan within two years, but will they be 'withdrawing' into Iran? Many apologies to Jersey readers but in the absence of anything very much at all happening I am going to concentrate on the main areas of Ron Paul's US presidential campaign. There is a longer term purpose to this but all will be revealed in due course. Did I mention I really like what Ron Paul has to say? He's my hero! Not only that but the US elections are having a huge effect on what is going on in the world.  The US elections on November 7th 2012 are what the world is waiting for, for the financial system is being held together for. And of course the  ongoing preparations (including running the propaganda machine) for the invasion of Iran. There is nothing like a war to unite a nation. Of course US intervention in the middle east is nothing like a war... legally anyway. You might also wonder if the two most endebted countries in the world, the US and the UK...
