Franklin Delano Roosevelt — 'Presidents are selected, not elected.'

Former Presidents Warn About the “Invisible Government” Running the United States.

Past presidents of the United States and other high profile political leaders have repeatedly issued warnings over the last 214 years that the U.S. government is under the control of an “invisible government owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people.”

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican Rand Paul on Tuesday officially announced on his website that he will run for U.S. president in 2016, hours before an event in his home state of Kentucky where he is expected to formally launch the campaign.

"I am running for president to return our country to the principles of liberty and limited government," he said in a posting at www.randpaul.com

Rand Paul Taps Jesse Benton to Run His Super PAC
The longtime family strategist will head up America's Liberty PAC, a Paul-sanctioned outside group.

BY SHANE GOLDMACHER
April 6, 2015

LOUISVILLE, Kentucky—Rand Paul's presidential campaign is prepared for launch—and so is his super PAC.

Roughly two weeks ago, the Kentucky senator and his top operatives began the process of severing ties with longtime Paul strategist Jesse Benton, who will helm the independent unlimited-money group established to boost Paul's candidacy and, more than likely, tear down his presidential rivals.

Benton's role with the super PAC will be general consultant, according to a person familiar with the arrangement. He will be charged with both crafting strategy and helping to reach the goal of banking between $20 million and $30 million to support Paul.

Where Do I Begin?
I'm so glad and so sad.
So rot and so Distraught.
I knew not what I got til I fought the world of the evil it brought.
A sea of patriots abound
Still don't know what they have found.
A wise old man tired and torn
with a striving son that every libertarian seems to scorn.
Liberty is in trouble and you fuckers don't even care.
Holding on to your self moral preservation as if it were something you wouldn't dare
question your own self worth in the land cheapskates...

Hi y'all:

Pardon the absence (for those who maybe curious); been in more foul rhetorical bent as of late (been tossing lyrical at gEVEELe+ under a Chris Carter's creation nomer), didn't want to mar the lovey dovey last days of DP with a bit more 'blue' rhetoric.

Even Lindsey Graham, one of the most hawkish members in Congress, wants to get on the “libertarianish” bandwagon.
Graham told The Gazette that he agrees with a lot of libertarian ideas: “Libertarians want smaller government. Count me in. Libertarians want oversight of government programs and making sure that your freedoms are not easily compromised. Count me in. Ted Cruz wants to fight Obamacare. Count me in.”
“Our view of limited government and free enterprise is pretty commonly shared,” he said. “What we wind up doing is having tactical differences.”

Former Texas Congressman Ron Paul will attend Tuesday's expected launch of Kentucky Senator Rand Paul's presidential bid. Reached on Monday, Ron Paul's Texas office confirmed that he was heading to Louisville for the event after his son's aides scored him a charter flight that would let him keep a long-scheduled commitment in Minneapolis.

7 years 2 months 19 days. 21% of my life. It has been one crazy ride. It's hard to explain how much this site and community shaped me as an individual over the last decade but I do know that I would not be the same without it.

Thank you Michael, I have the original I Support Ron Paul poster still hanging on my office wall it's #265 out of 500 and I was lucky enough to have it signed by Ron Paul in San Diego, back then I don't know if there was 100 people there. It is a constant reminder for me about what is possible.

Thought I'd jump in and share my story too. Mines not a long and exciting story. It's not dramatic. Kind of boring actually.

Basically my husband, son, and I bought a lake resort way up north to get away from the hustle. Turns out I am a city girl after all. I got really bored during the slow months of the resort business and started an addiction to googling stuff. Saw a picture of a blimp one day that said "Google Ron Paul". So I did...

The rest is history.

Nice interview Michael

Will Rand Paul inherit the energy of Ron Paul’s campaigns?
By Philip Bump April 6 at 2:06 PM
Last week, Michael Nystrom wrote a post at DailyPaul.com, a site he founded, that indicates its end is near. The site was for years a focal point of conversation and energy orbiting the stated and implied political philosophy of Ron Paul. Its animated logo unveils the site's mantra: P (eace) - AU (gold) - L (love).

How about a little countdown party, like the dropping of the ball on New Year's Eve, except to countdown the shutting down of the Daily Paul?

I am not sure if Michael has chosen an exact time, but it would be interesting and somewhat symbolic if it happened right as Rand Paul starts his press conference tomorrow.

And let me just take this opportunity to express my gratitude for each and every one of you. Thank you all :)

Germany Kicks off a Repatriation Craze

Germany’s request in January 2013 to have its gold repatriated set off a slew of interest in gold repatriation from other central banks including those in the Netherlands, Belgium and Austria. Gold repatriation requests have continued to drain the New York Federal Reserve’s gold vault.

isn't important. Not at all. It's not even an interesting story. It's less significant than most anything you could imagine. The way I got here is, in all likelihood, substantially the same as the way many others did.

What is important is the reason that I'm still here. That reason is YOU. I've said it before, but you're great, all of you! It's a rare moment indeed when I feel the kind of kinship that I feel here, you've given me 3 years, 16 days, and some odd hours of those moments.

You have become more than friends to me, you are closer to family. For sharing your experiences and insights; for sparking my curiosity; for helping me to ask questions I sometimes didn't know to ask; for teaching me things I didn't know I wanted to learn; for getting excited and laughing with me in good times and commiserating with me in the bad, for those things and more I can only offer an honest thank you and hope that you understand.

Some of you will be disembarking at the end of the Daily Paul, onto other things I suppose, I will miss you. Others of you will continue on, or have already, at Popular Liberty, and I look forward to seeing you there.
