It's a few days after returning from the Campaign for Liberty in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and I'm still very excited and charged up. A few people said they got to watch the convention on C-SPAN, which covered the whole evening except the last singer, Sarah Evens.

The first morning we were there, we went to the bookstore, in a mall, where Ron Paul was signing his book The Revolution: A Manifesto. There was over a thousand people all supporting Ron Paul and the Campaign for Liberty. It was extremely exciting and we met lots of people from all over that were just as excited as we were.

Hi everyone,

I'm here in Minneapolis and we just got back from The Nation Celebration, a concert that Ron Paul came to at at the end of at about 10:00 p.m., and got everyone fired up. He wants the Campaign to continue for the next few months at full throttle because he said we don't have much time, he believes the Neocons are planning to go to war.

This morning we went to the book signing where we lined up at Borders Bookstore in a mall that was filled 90% with Ron Paulers. He sat for 2 hours signing books and shaking hands. Wow, it was really exciting! Lots of people from all over the States. They drove, walked, and flew in, and are still continuing to do so. Even our hotel, which is 30 miles North of Minneapolis, still has Ron Pauler's rolling in.

It's difficult to figure if we can live stream in the convention center, However, I'll do my best to keep everyone informed of our progress.

Here is what is happening today:

Ron Paul and the Campaign for Liberty are making a significant investment in ensuring your three day stay in Minneapolis is the best ever. None of this is possible without the very generous donors who can afford to fuel this growing movement. If you are willing to make a major contribution to Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty we ask you to please click on the donate button or contact us at donate@campaignforliberty.com or call 703.347.6886.

We have a handful of special events lined-up for donors who can make a very large financial investment in the Campaign for Liberty. Please contact us to see how you can become a VIP.

And a note from Dr. Paul:

If they expected us to retire quietly from the scene, the political elite are in for a surprise.

Today I am making some very big announcements.

First, from August 31 to September 2 in Minneapolis, we will host a handful of events that will shake the political establishment. Everything will culminate on Tuesday with the official launch of the Campaign for Liberty at the Rally for the Republic.

The Campaign for Liberty will be the largest organization for peace, freedom, the Constitution, and sound money in American history. It will launch in grand fashion with lots of special guests and - if the early television and print inquiries we’ve received are any indication - plenty of media attention.

I would like to personally invite you and your family to join me and thousands of others in Minneapolis for these events and send a message to the Republican Party.

Tickets will go on sale for the Rally for the Republic this Friday, July 25 @ 10AM CST. We want this to be an unforgettable day, so we are holding a ticket bomb all day Friday in the tradition of our famous money bombs. How many seats can we sell on the first day?

In patriotic fashion all tickets will cost $17.76, so you can afford to bring the whole family.

This leads me to the second big announcement. After measuring the excitement and enthusiasm, we decided that the Williams Arena at the University of Minnesota was just too small to hold you. Therefore, we are making a significant upgrade. The Rally for the Republic will now take place at the Target Center, the largest arena in Minneapolis!

This promises to be the most spirited and provocative political event of the year! We held some very large rallies during the presidential campaign, but I have never attempted anything of this scale before. Its success rests entirely in your hands.

Later this week I will announce two internationally renowned musicians as headliners for the Rally for the Republic. We’ll also be joined by rock star Aimee Allen, NBC’s Tucker Carlson, Barry Goldwater Jr., Gov. Gary Johnson, conservative stalwart Grover Norquist, former Reagan deputy Attorney General Bruce Fein, presidential historian Doug Wead, MTV’s Adam Curry, musician Mark Scibilia, and Frank Sinatra impersonator Rick Ellis. Other special guests will be announced soon.

My staff has been working overtime to provide you with three full days of entertainment. Please visit the schedule page of the website and read all about upcoming events. We also have a lodging page to help you find accommodations in Minneapolis.

Together we are taking back our government and restoring the republic. Please join me in Minneapolis to kickoff the Campaign for Liberty and support our Revolution. Can I count on you to be there?

In Liberty,

P.S. I know that you have done so much already, but with both major party nominees threatening to lead us into bankruptcy at home and more wars abroad, the success of the Rally for the Republic and the launch of the Campaign for Liberty is crucial. Please do what you can to be in Minneapolis August 31 - September 2 and send a loud and clear message of freedom, peace, and prosperity.

Friday, June 13, 2008

Over the past 17 months you and I delivered a message of freedom, the likes of which American politics has not seen in decades. With the primary season now over, the presidential campaign has come to an end. But the Revolution has only begun.

Today I am happy to announce the official launch of the Ron Paul Campaign for Liberty. Please visit our new website and join us: http://www.campaignforliberty.com

Over the next few months I will be developing a program, assembling a team, and announcing new and exciting projects. We will have a permanent presence on the American political landscape. That I promise you.

Right now, I need your patience and support. I want the Campaign for Liberty to be a grassroots campaign; so your energy, your creativity, your feedback, and your participation are essential.

Together, we will educate our fellow Americans in freedom, sound money, non-interventionism, and free markets. We will write commentaries and broadcast videos on the news of the day. And I'll work with friends whom I respect to design materials for homeschoolers.

Politically, we will expand the great work of our precinct leader program. We will make our presence felt at every level of government. We will keep an eye on Congress, and lobby against legislation that threatens us. And we will identify and support candidates who champion our great ideas.

"In the final analysis," I wrote in my new book The Revolution: A Manifesto, "the last line of defense in support of freedom and the Constitution consists of the people themselves. If the people want to be free, if they want to lift themselves out from underneath a state apparatus that threatens their liberties, squanders their resources on needless wars, destroys the value of their dollar, and spews forth endless propaganda about how indispensable it is and how lost we would all be without it, there is no force that can stop them."

Our time has come to act on these words.

May future generations look back on our work and say that these were men and women who, in a moment of great crisis, stood up to their politicians, the opinion-makers, and the establishment, and saved their country.

For liberty,

P.S. Please join me. Go to our website, www.campaignforliberty.com, and become a member of the Campaign for Liberty. Our goal is 100,000 members by September. Can we reach it?

ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA - Republican Presidential candidate Ron Paul's newest book, "The Revolution: A Manifesto", is number one on the New York Times Best Sellers list for May 18th, 2008. The ranking is yet another of the many successes Dr. Paul has had during his presidential candidacy spreading his message of personal freedom and constitutional government.

Upon its official release on April 30th, "The Revolution: A Manifesto" was the number one bestseller on Amazon.com and remains the number one bestseller in political books.

Mr. Jerry Day has made an interesting observation regarding google, the media and Ron Paul. Check it out!

Excerpted here is a paragraph of Ron Paul's writing on August 15, 2005 entitled, Politics and Judicial Activism:

"The public also plays a role in the erosion of our judiciary. Since many citizens lack basic knowledge of our Constitution and federalist system, they are easily manipulated by media and academic elites who tell them that judges are the absolute and final arbiters of US law. But the Supreme Court is not supreme over the other branches of government; it is supreme only over lower federal courts. If Americans wish to be free of judicial tyranny, they must at least develop basic knowledge of the judicial role in our republican government. The present state of affairs is a direct result of our collective ignorance."

This whole paragraph says a lot, however this one statement really grabs my attention, "If Americans wish to be free of judicial tyranny, they must at least develop basic knowledge of the judicial role in our republican government".

This development of "basic knowledge" is the price of freedom. It takes individual participation, education, power, a new perspective, and the eternal vigilance that Thomas Jefferson talked about. This is the price we each must pay to redeem our freedom and liberty.
