Arrow Democracy is NOT FREEDOM! By Ron Paul - Good Riddance Mike Gravel!

----------- BEGIN EDIT --------------

I wanted to add this note because I thought it was important. I realized that I sound rather negative in this post. I am a positive person looking to making POSITIVE change in this country and this world. I thought about where my negative energy was coming from. I realized that it came from my experience with a die-hard Gravel supporter who I have been debating with. This individual is very new to the concepts of libertarianism. I personally don't feel like he is coming from the same place as most of us in "The Revolution". But I do recognize that even as a minority amoung us, each one of us has something to offer. I am not sure if I started the negative attacks with this person. I kind of doubt I did. But I do want to release myself from negativity. I DO believe this individual and Mike Gravel are not thinking the matter through to it's end point. I do hope that they will give some time to the study of the philosophy of people like Ayn Rand and G. Edward Griffin.

Put the nail in the coffin of Mike Gravel and his strange ideas. While he is undoubtedly a patriot, he, his ideas, and his uneducated followers do NOT belong in The Revolution.

His political career has now ended and I am not surprised. Whenever any principled and educated libertarian challenged him, he became very aggrivated and condescending. In my opinion, it was very foolish of him to think he could "fool the revolution". Mike, go fillibuster some more, at least that did some good for the people!

Those who were fooled by Gravel should be vary wary of their lack of understanding of the core values of freedom and libertarianism. Fellow revolutionaries, be very wary of these Marxist infiltrators amoungst us. DEMOCRACY IS NOT FREEDOM!

Don't take MY word for it! Even though Ron Paul is mainly writing about the Iraq war here, his views on "Democracy" are very clear. Here are his words:

There is even a poll as to whether anybody you know was fooled by Gravel.
