On Thursday, the 12th, Dr. Ron Paul, did a live webcast from Texas that was promoted to be an important announcement. Followers, were confused, as most of them had already read about the separate 11k seat auditorium rented in the twin cities, so supporters could hold their own convention.
While Dr. Paul did mention holding his own convention, it didn't seem to be the main message of the evening. What was the message that all the viewers where waiting for?Before the webcast there was speculation that the good Dr. would be announcing what many have been expecting for awhile, that he was going to drop out of the race. He never mentioned it, not once, people in chat rooms continued to come to their own conclusions, but still no real answers.
The main message seemed to be one of a pep rally, and review of how far the revolution had come, even with a perceived MSM blackout. He highlighted the ,meet up groups, around the nations who continue to meet on a regular basis and have gotten involved in local politics and all levels to support real issues at county,city, and state levels. The revolution is like all successful revolutions, more than the vision of one person. The revolution is the message combined with leadership, and vision beyond oneself, the development that encourages growth and participation of fellow believers.
While Dr. Paul, did in a e-mail announce that he was if fact pulling out of the race, he did commit to continue the revolution. He is wise enough to step aside, not down. The revolution will go on. and make the changes this country needs so badly. the return to a constitutional federal government that is not the authoritarian government we have today. One that protects individuals from being taken advantage by powerful corporations who buy congress members that pass laws written by lobbyist. Imagine a government that respected it's citizens, instead of fearing them.
The bubble did not burst. It has just been passed to many more hands, that will extend a open hand out to anyone who wants to learn where the country has made mistakes and what it will take to correct our current path from where we're headed, to a course that will steer the country back on course to the greatness the founding fathers envisioned, one where the American dream can once again become a reality to all who set goals and work to obtain them. Not just to those who manipulate the system to increase their wealth and power by suppressing the masses. Our ship, America, cannot continue to cast off it's people, as useless ballast, while steering into the rocks.
