The elections of 2008 (and the early elections of 2010) produced two significant phenomena: the "Ron Paul Revolution," and the "Tea Party Movement." And, mark it down: both of them will have profound effects upon the upcoming November elections--and upon the 2012 elections as well. Call them what you want, however, America doesn't need another movement; it needs a genuine revolution. The Tea Party movement, while still a force with which to be contended, has already been diluted and compromised. The primary elections plainly reveal the reality of this fact. The high spots so far are the defeats of Arlen Specter in Pennsylvania and Bob Bennett in Utah. The low spots so far are the reelection of John McCain in Arizona and the election of Dan Coats in Indiana. John McCain's election, in particular, demonstrates how many conservatives and "revolutionaries" still don't get it. If any State in the union should have an up-close-and-personal look at what we are up against, it would be the people of Arizona. After all, they are on the front lines in the fight of one of the most important battles currently being waged in our country: illegal immigration. And John McCain is one of the worst offenders in terms of facilitating and encouraging this illegal invasion. Yet the people of Arizona reelected McCain to the US Senate. (It would interesting to know how many illegal aliens voted for McCain, would it not?) Then again, John McCain received the enthusiastic endorsement of former Alaska governor, Sarah Palin. This endorsement obviously brought McCain thousands of Tea Party votes that otherwise would have gone to his principal opponent, J.D. Hayworth. McCain is not the only Big-Government globalist neocon to receive Palin's endorsement. Many of Palin's endorsees are neocons; which leads to one of the biggest problems with any so-called conservative movement: allowing celebrity-type "conservatives" to become the de facto leaders and spokesmen for what should be a true grassroots, people-generated rebellion. Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck are the two biggest culprits in this regard. Mark my words: Palin and Beck may see themselves as part of a conservative "movement," but they want nothing to do with an old-fashioned, honest-to-God, Patrick Henry-style revolution. In fact, they are doing everything in their power to keep such a revolution from taking place. This does not mean that Palin and Beck do not contribute some good things to freedom's fight. They do. The problem is, for every good thing they contribute they counterbalance it by supporting establishment principals, such as John McCain and Newt Gingrich, and attacking non-establishment players and ideas, which serves only to keep the Big-Government power structure firmly ensconced in Washington, D.C. Get real, folks, and start thinking for yourselves. Ask yourself why Fox News never (or hardly ever) invites non-establishment patriots to appear on their network. Why do you not see former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Paul Craig Roberts on Fox News? Why do you not see former Georgia congressman and Presidential candidate Bob Barr on Fox News? Why do you not see former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura on Fox News? Why do you not see former Director of the US Office of Economic Opportunity and Presidential candidate Howard Phillips on Fox News? Why do you not see Presidential candidate Chuck Baldwin on Fox News? The list is endless. Fox News is not "fair and balanced." It is as controlled and manipulated as any other media news network. The only thing it balances is the other networks' infatuation with the Democrat Party, by promoting Republican candidates and ideas. What it does not do is educate and inform the American people with the truth as to what both major parties are doing to destroy our country. But remember, Fox News is owned by Keith Rupert Murdoch, the same man who helped finance Hillary Clinton's campaign for the US Senate, and who is as much of a globalist as anyone in Washington, D.C., or New York City. As an aside, and speaking of Hillary Rodham, I predict that she will replace Vice President Joe Biden BEFORE the 2012 elections. I've said that in private for many weeks, and now say it in this column--remember, you heard it here. The Clinton-Bush Crime Syndicate (CBCS) needs Hillary in the White House badly, and Obama has readily accepted a subservient role in the criminal affairs of CBCS (for very profitable reasons, no doubt). And with the CBCS bosses pretty much running things at the White House (they don't worry about domestic or social issues, providing that these do not interfere with their international criminal activities), is it any wonder that Obama has already taken more vacations than most Presidents take during an entire term? And it is the influence of globalists and neocons upon national and international politics that the likes of Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck simply do not get--or do not want to get. And because many Tea Partiers are so enamored with these two (and allow them to do much of their thinking for them), they remain clueless as well. Ladies and gentlemen, America is in the throes of socialist and Marxist political upheaval. The curtain could fall at any time. The American people need to wake up to this truism: a "conservative" movement--even a conservative Tea Party movement--will not save us. The only thing that will save us is an old-fashioned State revolt. Arizona had the opportunity to become a modern-day version of 1775 Massachusetts. But Arizona has probably forfeited that leadership role by 1) reelecting John McCain, and 2) being willing to allow federal courts to dictate law to a sovereign State. Instead of taking its case to the federal courts, Arizona should simply tell the federal government that it will enforce its own State laws (including the newly enacted anti-illegal immigration law) regardless of what any federal court says or doesn't say. At some point, that is exactly what some State (or group of states) in this union is going to have to do, or liberty will be forever lost. As long as freedom lovers are content to remain satisfied with the status quo by allowing party politics and media celebrities to dominate their efforts, there will be no stopping this socialist avalanche that is crashing down upon us. The Tea Party movement of 2010 (if left free of Big-Government neocons) could certainly translate into positive developments this November; that is for sure. A revival of the "Ron Paul Revolution" in 2012 could also make a significant contribution, but it is going to take a State revolution to seal the deal. I, for one, am ready.

Thats an easy one. Take a look at who signs the paychecks at Fox. He aint Irish. Jews work BOTH sides of the street.
For that we need a fire eating, rabble rouser leader. Someone not owned and operated by the system. None now nor on the horizon, that means the slide into total State control is on the near horizon.
Ol' Chuck nails it again. Glad I voted for him.

Chuck Baldwin is a smart man and (in my opinion anyway) a really good man.
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic. The cries for revolution become more numerous every day. Two things are needed, they need to be louder, and for someone to step forward on the national scene, and take up the cause.
So you stick your neck out. Lets see how far you can run.

Good article. In 2008 I managed to educate and convince a friend and co-worker to vote for Ron Paul (eligible for write-ins in CA) instead of Obama. Unfortunately he has an overly optimistic view of the Tea Party and doesn't quite see Glenn Beck for the fascist that he is. At least he isn't taken in by Palin.
Democrats don't mind war as long as they can have big government. Republicans don't mind big government as long as they can have war.

I hear that the corpse of Vladimir Lenin is available for rent at reasonable rates, maybe somebody could prop him up on a stage alongside a flag standard and exclaim "What Would Lenin Do?!?" to kick it off?? Hehehehe
For that we need a fire eating, rabble rouser leader.

I cannot agree with that. ALL MOVEMENTS, REVOLUTIONS HAVE...ONE AND ONLY ONE LEADER. The rest of us are followers, foot soldiers, but not armchair warriors. History shows us, that for good or evil, any time a charismatic leader appears on the world stage, thousands of followers actually bring on the revolution. Our revolution had one and only one leader when the time came to revolt, that was Washington. Can we imagine if all the founding Fathers were hell bent on leading????? The rabble (armchair warriors) raise the cry, only one steps forward to lead. That is the way it is done.
Unfortunately 90% of them are from armchair warriors that don't want to risk anything.

Agree 100 per cent. We should consider ourselves at least one step ahead of the crowd, in that at least we recognize the danger. However that does not qualify me as arrogant enough to believe I have the talent to step forward, and fall flat on my face. It will take someone that IS or WILL BE known on the national stage for some reason or other. He or she would not have to be a politician. Just somehow have or get national notoriety. The armchair warriors or followers are there, as demonstrated by 20,000,000 of them voting for Perot.
Meanwhile, what I've been telling them, that they can always get more money, they cannot always get more liberty, has completely fallen on deaf ears as they think I've lost it.
#26. To: James Deffenbach (#24)
True... Eric called it right, too many want to risk nothing, play it safe, go along to get along. The Founding Fathers all stuck their necks out, there were many of them and most all were well known figures. Calls for Joe Sixpack to stick his neck out is ludicrous. He would be dead meat in a week.

I would personally have a great deal of trouble in following someone that I don't know. And all of those that I do know, I wouldn't follow out into the back yard, much less into a fight. There are a lot of wannabe "leaders" out there. None that I know of have the talent for it. And, their motives for wanting to be a leader are suspect. They will get louder, imo, when things get bad. Things aren't bad enough yet. And a leader will emerge after the fight starts, not before. Out 1st revolution started without a leader, and so will our third. If you think someone with the charisma of a Che or Fidel will come along and lead, imo you are mistaken. We aren't peasants and we don't care about personal charisma or silly slogans. But the principles that they and other guerrilla leaders used still apply. .
Two things are needed, they need to be louder, and for someone to step forward on the national scene, and take up the cause.

Truer words were never spoken. Beck, just now, was crying on air while praying for the success of his gathering tomorrow morning. He has told people to leave their signs home and if trouble comes their way to "lock arms", reminiscent of Selma, Alabama circa 1963. This asshat doesn't realize he's white and those tactics worked exactly once. Tomorrow, the Blind Prophet will have a bad day.
Mark my words: Palin and Beck may see themselves as part of a conservative "movement," but they want nothing to do with an old-fashioned, honest-to-God, Patrick Henry-style revolution. In fact, they are doing everything in their power to keep such a revolution from taking place.
#34. To: Cynicom (#32)
Maybe. I doubt it. In order for them to have succeeded they needed the support of the citizens that were being raked over the coals by their own governments. You cant have that support by being evil. It would have been interesting to have met and talked with these men, in order to see how what they said and did is different from what we've been taught. But apart from their morality, their tactics and strategy works. I focus on that, not the morality of the men. They worked out the principles of modern guerrilla warfare. They've shown what works, and they are quite open about their mistakes that they made in learning. None of our founding Fathers were evil, I disagree with that. One does not look the other way, or benefit from the kidnapping of slaves. Those chickens are coming home to roost, again. .

Beck is what he is. I could personally do without the tearful crap and the constant invoking of Jesus. The patriot movement doesn't need that fairy tale nonsense. However, whatever one thinks of him, he is putting himself out there. I guess, with all due respect, to all those who are being snide or condescending about him and say he's getting in the way of your revolution, I have to ask "what's keeping you from starting it?" Reminds me of my mom's brother Don and his brother in law, Bob. Uncle Don and I were close when I was a kid, and always did repair and upkeep stuff on my grandmother's farm. Uncle Bob always had a better way to do whatever it was we were doing, but he always did it from a chair in the shade. Whenever I'd take a break, Bob would always tell me how he would do it if he was out there, and when I'd go back to work, I'd dutifully chime in to Uncle Don about the advice I'd just gotten. Most days, he'd just shake his head and keep working without comment, but one day, Don had enough. He slammed the blade of his shovel into the ground, stood up straight, dripping sweat, and said "well, son, your Uncle Bob is full of shit. Never take advice on running a shovel from a man with soft hands."

Castro for example... His daughter, his grand daughter and his sister are all American citizens, they despise the man as evil. His two offspring were here a few weeks ago, doing the college lecture tour. They had NO problem characterizing the man and his deeds, none. His greatest evil???? He paraded himself as a staunch Roman Catholic, thereby garnering the backing of the Vatican in his revolution. Surprise, once he had the yoke on the backs of the people he declared himself a non believing Communist. An evil man as was Che, a medical doctor, that had no compunction on killing people.

And what is a revolution? In a war, you kill people. Guerrilla warfare has been used by communists, because they didn't have a regular army when they started. But it works. It will work for us and is the only option open to us. Just because we're not communists doesn't mean that we can't use their tactics, because they have proven that those tactics work, and that is all that matters. .
