Why Are Ron Paul`s Supporters So Angry?


When Glenn Beck
interviewed Congressman

Ron Paul
a few weeks ago, he said that he had
received

death threats from people
purporting to be Ron Paul
supporters. [VDARE.com
note:
Beck has
also been threatened by

Al Gore supporters
, after disclosing Gore`s

"Giant Ecological Footprint."

I have heard other journalists make similar
accusations against Congressman Paul`s supporters. Of
course, I have no way of knowing whether any of this is
true or not. And neither does anyone else.

My own experience has
been that Congressman Paul`s supporters have always
demonstrated grace, patience, and courtesy. I have met
and worked alongside Ron Paul supporters in at least
four states, and I have never personally witnessed any
of the anger and bitterness of which they are accused.

Not that Ron Paul`s
supporters do not have reason to be angry. They most
certainly do. In fact, all of us should be angry.

Ron Paul`s supporters
have been subjected to the most overt and outlandish
brand of humiliation and censorship ever seen in modern
politics. The cable news Republican Presidential debates
have been jokes. For every one question (and usually a
stupid, irrelevant question at that) asked of Dr. Paul,
the other participants will get three or four. Maybe
more. Even though Ron Paul has received more money, more
votes, and more delegates than

Rudy Giuliani,
the press continues to ignore Mr.
Paul while showering

Giuliani
with coverage.

In addition, Ron Paul`s
own party continues to treat him and his supporters as
second-class citizens–or perhaps even as aliens from a
different planet. They are subjected to insults of every
type. Not to mention enduring every conceivable method
to censure or remove Dr. Paul from the political
process. He has been denied access to platforms,
excluded from debates, removed from GOP Presidential
lists, etc., ad infinitum, ad nauseam.

I say again: if anyone
has a right to be angry, it is Ron Paul supporters. But
perhaps the greater question is, Why are not all of us
angry? No, I do not mean in a cruel or unkind way, but
where is our outrage for what the ruling elite are doing
to our country?

We should all be angry
at the way politicians lie to us, deceive us, and
manipulate us. We should all be angry at the way both
major parties have completely ignored and trampled
constitutional government.

Are we so gullible that
we cannot see when a politician says one thing to one
group of people and a totally opposite thing to another
group of people? Are we so naïve that we cannot tell
when a politician changes his beliefs simply in order to
garner votes?

Come on folks, let`s get
real: do you really expect

John McCain
to abandon his efforts to

grant amnesty to illegal aliens
? Do you really
expect Mitt Romney to be a champion for the unborn? Do
you really expect Mike Huckabee to suddenly be the
champion for limited government spending? Do you really
expect Rudy Giuliani to

keep his pants zipped?

Have the American people
become so numbed to truth and reality that we cannot
distinguish the genuine from the phony–even when it
stands right in front of us? Perhaps so. However, if the
American people had any of the character and resolve of
our forebears, we would be steaming mad about what our
political and business leaders have done to our country.

Yes, we should be angry
at the way our government has repeatedly lied to us
about the economy, about sending our jobs and
manufacturing industries overseas, about Iraq, and about
EVERYTHING! Yes, dear friends, they lie to us about
everything. It has gotten to the point that, frankly, I
believe NOTHING the government tells us. They have
proven themselves to be totally disingenuous and
downright duplicitous. And, frankly, I`m angry about it.

In addition, I can even
understand whatever anger and exasperation Ron Paul`s
supporters feel regarding my fellow evangelical
believers. Today`s Christians–and especially our

pastors
–have become little more than toadies for
the establishment elite. They apparently have never read
our

U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence, or Bill
of Rights.
They are seemingly oblivious to our great
American history and heritage. They seem to lack the
most elementary understanding of even the most basic
American principles.

For example, it makes
absolutely no sense that Christian pastors would embrace
the sudden pro-life candidacy of Mitt Romney and reject
the proven, twenty-year pro-life record of Ron Paul. It
makes no sense that evangelical Christians would embrace
the pro-illegal amnesty, pro-McCain/Feingold, pro-No-Child-Left-Behind,
pro-gun
control John McCain
and reject the proven,
twenty-year no-amnesty, pro-freedom,
anti-No-Child-Left-Behind, pro-Second
Amendment
record of Ron Paul. It makes absolutely no
sense that Christians would fall for Mr. Big Government
himself, Mike Huckabee, and reject the champion of
limited government, Ron Paul.

Beyond that, how is it
that pastors and evangelicals cannot see through the
GOP`s complicity in helping to establish a Luciferian
New World Order? How can they be so blind and dumb
regarding the global machinations of the Council on
Foreign Relations? How can they not understand and
reject the philosophy emanating from the Trilateral
Commission and Bilderbergers?

Ask the average pastor
and Christian about the CFR, the Trilateralists, or the
Bilderbergers and they just stare into space. They are
absolutely clueless. Ask them about the burgeoning

NAFTA superhighway
, North American Union, or Amero
and they look stupefied. Again, they are absolutely
clueless. And, yes, I am angry about it. I am saddened
and angered at the lack of knowledge, perception, and
discernment demonstrated by my Christian brethren.

I believe with all my
heart that if the pastors and Christian people of
America would come off their high horse and start
supporting the principles of liberty, the U.S.
Constitution, and limited government, not only would
there be a rebirth of freedom in America, there would be
a spiritual revival as well.

As it is, freedom-loving
people cannot see past the ignorance, elitism, and
partisan phoniness of modern Christians in order that
they might see Christ. The Scripture plainly says,
"Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty."

(II Corinthians 3:17)

When America`s

Colonial preachers
and Christian people fought for
liberty and independence, God gave us two Great
Awakenings. I believe another Great Revival would come
to America, if our Christians and pastors would stand on
their hind legs and once again fight for liberty and
independence.

And, yes, I am also
angry that they will not do that either.
