MEDIA SHOWS NO SIGNS OF UNDERSTANDING THE RON PAUL STRATEGY SO LET ME EXPLAIN IT Posted on May 10, 2012 at 6:25am
DON RASMUSSENDon Rasmussen is a Texas-based Republican political consultant. Don previously served as campaign special assistant to Congressman Ron Paul and today advises
Over the last couple of weeks, the Ron Paul campaign has picked up a majority of delegates in Iowa, Colorado, Maine, and Nevada. He’s on pace to also pick up the majority of delegates in at least four additional states…and those are just the sure things. This is all part of a process that actually started over 4 years ago when Paul ran for President and his deputy campaign manager, Debbie Hopper, did yeoman’s work with the grassroots to recognize the intensity and develop this strategy.
The media is now belatedly noticing that this has been happening. It has already succeeded in taking control of slews of local and county GOP organizations, putting at least seven Paul backers on the Republican National Committee, and completely taking over the party in multiple states…and counting.
The question that much of the legacy media is now starting to ask is “Why?” As with so much reporting, they then go on to attempt to answer their own question and fail. The supposition has included…
He still thinks he can win He’s laying the groundwork for Senator Rand Paul in 2016 He wants a convention floor speech He want to force Romney to make Senator Paul the veep He seeks to influence the platform They want to make floor motions about pet issues The funny thing about this is that these reporters and opinion makers could know the answer to their own questions if they had bothered to listen. There is no great mystery. Ron Paul, his staff (Full Disclosure: I’m a former staffer to both Dr. Paul and Campaign for Liberty), his activists, and his backers have been talking about this, writing about this, and meticulously implementing this strategy for years! Ron Paul himself has been going on national television and discusses this strategy for months! Heck, they started laying the groundwork by winning local GOP boards and committees in 2008.
The current project for all of those folks is nothing less than to take control of at least 77 seats in the RNC and a majority of state parties. That’s the first step.
They don’t care about floor speeches. This is a revolution. They’re taking the party. Then they’re taking the government so they can eliminate the Federal Reserve, the IRS, the domestic spy apparatus, the military-industrial complex, and every coercive federal power except for those enumerated by the Constitution.
They are doing this because they studied history and learned about the causes of the post-ISI crash in Latin America and the rise of the military dictatorships in the 1970’s. They learned about the Versailles treaty and how it forced the German state to destroy its currency trying to make war reparations, imploding the economy and seeding the ground for the Third Reich. They learned that the Federal Reserve is a private banking system that has destroyed 97% of the value of the dollar by using inflation to transfer our wealth to a small ruling class. They learned that right versus left is an illusion; a football game for the masses. They learned that the real battle is and has always been up towards freedom or down towards tyranny.
I was first presented the case of public opinion and the revolutionary war in Ron Paul’s 2008 campaign headquarters. Did you know that only about 10% of the US population actively supported the American Revolution? The rest of the population was pretty well split. You hear a lot of talk about “tipping points” from Paul people, often with quotes from the book of the same name or emphasized with Margaret Mead…
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has”
Spend a little time with them and you will also likely hear about Eugene Debs. Debs was a socialist. He ran repeatedly for president a hundred years ago, once from prison. Eugene Debs never won a state, but today his entire platform is the law of the United States. Last year, an overwhelming number of Republican congressmen voted to pass Ron Paul’s Audit of the Fed bill after failing for over 20 years. It has already started.
Another common meme is about human psychology. As it goes, even after Kristallnacht (the first coordinated pogrom against the Jewish people by the German state), over three quarters of a million Jews remained in Germany. Why? Because it was just so far beyond their experience that they could not accept that their government intended to kill them to the last child. Would you?
Americans aren’t dealing with what’s coming because we won’t accept it. Tomorrow will always be like yesterday because it always has, right?
You will also hear that if one carries all of our debt obligations out to the life of the loans or programs, we are actually in the hole to the tune of about 105 trillion dollars. That is more money than has been created in the whole sum of human history. You will hear that our debt to GDP ratio is over 100% and no country has ever recovered from that condition without collapse or revolution.
Are they radical? Yes, they believe that nothing less than radical action has a chance to change the trajectory and save the country. Ron Paul and the millions that have been inspired and informed by him believe these things, even if journalists and the masses don’t.

Ron Paul is basically a wealthy, old fool who likes to hear himself speak. He has no chance of ever becoming president --- but he stays in the race because he craves the attention from those who follow him.
