While watching the NBC GOP primary debates last night from Florida, at one point, my son Chris said, “What if Ron Paul and Rick Santorum just flat out spoke up and said, ‘You know what, this is bull that you are clearly giving the majority of mic time to Romney and Gingrich and quite frankly we’re sick of it!’ and then walk off?”
We agreed that that is what many normal people would do when disrespected in much the way that the mainstream media (MSM) is treating candidates like Ron Paul whom do not fit their elitist agenda as their hand picked frontrunners for the GOP nomination. To the media elites, it does not matter who wins the GOP or the Democratic nod as they make sure there is no difference in the winners from each side. They make sure the Republocrats win every time.
That got me thinking about whether or not the apathy and rampant non-participation on the part of a majority of American citizens in the electoral process is directly related to the fact that most average Americans with even half a bit of sense and education know that the process is a complete sham and fraud. It really is that way today. But that does not mean that it should be or that it was designed to be this way.
Participating in it amounts to giving the impression that you sanction it. That you approve of it. That you are a willing participant. This presents a terrible conundrum for those of us who are leery and tired of big government and its far reaching tentacles that bind it to the plutocrats and oligarchy that then creates the government media military industrial complex. Our participation in the way the game is currently played means we approve of it. But we do not. The only way to change the rules of the game is to win.
We legitimate liberty loving teaparty activists have to show the patience and savvy needed to play their game and win it, so we can wrestle away the reins of control and then make the changes necessary to prevent a re-seizing of control by special interests who use the government for their own personal gain. This is no easy endeavor nor one for the faint at heart. It requires a strong will and the cunning to see that the race is long. I thank God for the Ron Paul campaign and its ability to do this.
So at first glance, the normal and typical response to all those thieves in cahoots is to say “piss off, I am not participating anymore because you don’t play fair and its all just a sham of a process.” But to do so is to give up. When you start to get the notion that you know it is all just a ruse and you want to stop participating in the sham of the current electoral process, that is the exact moment when you need to do the exact opposite of quitting and instead dig in and persevere and know that you are not alone in your thinking or in this fight and realize that real liberty loving people are fighting along side you to push the government media military industrial complex back and defeat it.
Eventually, we will wake the United States of America up from the terrible coma it fell into and we will then remain on guard to make sure it never falls prey again to the ills of the last 75 years of government run amok. We the People must remain vigilant. The great experiment with Constitutional Republicanism cannot end on our watch. Please stay strong and continue to support candidates like Ron Paul.
