Secession and Liberty | Ron Paul

[@gildobacci4996]

Ron Paul is a real american Hero

[@jsallerson]

Gildo Bacci this saying is nearly impossible to assign to any American politician today, your assignment here is spot on.

[@americanpatriotparty-natio5347]

American Patriot Party - www.americanpatriotparty.cc Endorsed Ron Paul. APP is the only party that promotes smaller states by giving statehood to all counties. Adequate representation is accomplished by removing "distant legislatures" which the founders warned could never give representation.

[@powerfulstrong5673]

President Andrew Jackson was for states rights, but he was also hostile against secession. If Andrew Jackson were alive during Civil War, He will definitely stand with the Union against the rebellion Southern States！

[@powerfulstrong5673]

You want the individual states to become their own nations, So do you want to relinquish your right to cross statelines freely? Do you want to establish checkpoints and borders customs services alone state borders?

[@jessevanhalen6967]

Ron Paul wants to create another country within America. He is a real anti-American hero. He's a villain!

[@SHTFhorse]

can't explain how I feel about Ron Paul. He's an exceptional human being.

[@SovereignStatesman]

@Av63PNT0 he talks a good story. But he has no clue about how things really work in this country, and how corrupt it really is from the actual Constitution. He thinks all people have to do, is elect the right Federal officials, and everything will be perfect. But he has no clue that elections are bought by lobbyists by supporting candidates, because the best funded candidate usually wins.

I feel blessed living at a time where I can hear great men of liberty such as Ron Paul, Tom Woods, and Lew Rockwell and others like them.

[@RuFFRyDas87]

Ron Paul: Still a BOSS!

[@RuFFRyDas87]

Forever a BOSS!

[@RuFFRyDas87]

Woooooo!

[@kronoscamron7412]

We love you Ron Paul.

[@88BigEtrain]

Ron's speech was in plain English, yet riddled with brilliance, which is the perpetual case in all his speeches and appearances.

[@marcorubio2962]

I get to meet Dr. Paul in just 11 days! I can't wait!!!

[@MCoblentz62]

posted 2 weeks ago....so how'd it go???

[@MCoblentz62]

bummer

[@marcorubio2962]

Awesome!!!

[@pughums]

How did it go?

[@rabbithole9102]

Ludwig von Rothbard 27:53 "you have the right to keep the fruits of your labor" That's an anarcho-socialist demand, not an anarcho-capitalist one! Ronnie boy has finally seen the light!!!

[@luchi.el.zorrito]

Secession will bring together true lovers of freedom! Capitalism and personal liberty will strive our world even farther than any system ever attempted! No more cherrypicking on the rights of freemen, we must fight for them all! #Ancap

[@jessevanhalen6967]

Secession will destroy the American dollar and undermine American sovereignty. We will be extremely vulnerable to the Communist nations who seek our demise

[@jamesashton9546]

Never a more inspirational guy, man even at this age, blows my mind

[@baird5776mullet]

God Bless this man.

[@chriscarter8398]

This man is my president regardless of what anybody says he is the greatest man in politics today when the US falls I will follow him

[@YAH2121]

Listen to this man's words, people. These things may or may not happen in his lifetime, but if they happen, remember Mr. Paul predicted it.

[@dblari]

Dr. Paul's words at 24:10 are reminiscent of a line from a Carl Sandburg poem: "Sometime they’ll give a war and nobody will come."

[@88Nick8]

This is an absolutely awesome speech. He is the only politician I ever contributed to. Great job!

[@jessevanhalen6967]

Thank god he lost!

[@harmanpabla7315]

This man needs to be sitting in our Supreme Court

[@mattedwards4533]

Ron Paul is one of the very few politicians that I can respect! He was born with a bright mind and an honorable heart.I am afraid that he is to good of a man to associate with the den of liars and crooks in Washington. My hats off to him!

[@tedosmond413]

19th century taught us chattel slavery was failure but many americans fought for it and still idolize it

[@jessevanhalen6967]

My ancestors were Union soldiers who fought against the Confederacy. They are rolling in their graves.

[@lilkaeranders]

Please run for president 2016 Ron Paul.

[@ryandirkyoung6270]

"Why can't the civilization advance?" Because we allow the state to exist. No one wants to say it, but I think 3000 to 4000 years of brutal oppression and persecution is enough.

[@user-rd4cd7ph7x]

Ron Paul is my president.

[@jessevanhalen6967]

Ok Mr. Viking now go and worship your false god, Ron Paul

[@tricorntom2254]

WE THE PEOPLE, IN ORDER TO FORM A MORE PERFECT UNION...

[@jessevanhalen6967]

By destabilizing it? Seems pretty irrational

[@sajeersayed2008]

long live ron paul god bless u

[@eflint1]

The people (the true sovereigns) of a State bypass their State legislature and elect delegates to hold a convention on the secession of their State from the Union. The elected representatives of the people of that State, after much sober deliberation, and acting in the authority of the true sovereigns, can vote to recall the few and defined powers they had authorized the Federal Government of the USA to have in the Constitution. Such an act of the people could not be labeled as "treasonous" as such conventions were used by the sovereigns (people) of the States to ratify the U.S. Constitution. Ratification of the Constitution was not an act of the State governments, but was carried out by the true sovereigns of each State, the people.

[@ottawadigs]

truth

[@johnechterhoff4791]

Commentary on Hosea 4:6 through 11: "Both priests and people rejected knowledge; God will justly reject them. They forgot the law of God, neither desired nor endeavoured to retain it in mind, and to transmit the remembrance to their posterity; therefore God will justly forget them and their children. If we dishonour God with that which is our honour, it will, sooner or later, be turned into shame to us. Instead of warning the people against sin, from the consideration of the sacrifices, which showed what an offence sin was to God, since it needed an atonement, the priests encouraged the people to sin, since atonement might be made at so small an expense. It is very wicked to be pleased with the sins of others, because they may turn to our advantage. What is unlawfully gained, cannot be comfortably used. The people and the priests hardened one another in sin; therefore justly shall they share in the punishment. Sharers in sin must expect to share in ruin. Any lust harboured in the heart, in time will eat out all its strength and vigour. That is the reason why many professors grow so heavy, so dull, so dead in the way of religion. They have a liking for some secret lust, which takes away their hearts." Dr. Paul may God continue to Bless you and please take care of your health.

[@shinsyotta]

Here in 2021.

[@doctorpresident5681]

I once worried that these views Dr. Paul has shared would never take hold and we'd descend into a permanent state of tyranny. Now I realize that his vision of an America 4-5 years down the road is what will come to be, as a result of the collapse. Everyone will wake up once their shitty system crashes and say, "well, let's make sure that can't happen again." People will have so much more common sense once the nightly news and public schooling falls to the wayside.

[@annas5281]

Idk, the only ppl we know who can afford "home school," are the people milking the public taxes for all they can. They are all from generational-public paycheck families. (People who work can't afford the luxuries of the military employees)

[@doctorpresident5681]

anna s I completely understand. I actually see a self-education system on the horizon. Let's toy with the idea that a total elimination of the schooling system is optimal.

[@davidcarson2048]

[@CJinsoo]

Pol Pot was Sartre trained communist in Paris, and was supported by the Chinese Communists. Cambodia was ruled by a very sophisticated Prince who played off both sides against each other. Paul's citing the USA bombing of Cambodia seems to ignore that the Prince wisely allowed NVA and Viet Cong free-run of that part of the country for years in order to have a safe haven. The Prince also wisely assessed which side was more ruthless and realized that backing USA was a losing cause. It was then that he fled off to China and the Pol Pot regime took over, albeit with a short period where some Cambodia military clowns extracted as much from the country as they could before Pol Pot took over.

[@tedosmond413]

All those clapping at 7:30 were clapping for the exact opposite in 2001...sad

[@Howie47]

The U.S. needs to be furtherly divided. With 2,3 or 4 separate unions. As long as citizens have the "we're #1 blind pride mentality" instead of educated and enlightened minds. They'll be lead like a bunch of cattle to the slaughter. Again (Korea) and again (Viet Nam) and again (Iraq) and again (Afghanistan) and again (Russia). Will the U.S.A. ever wake up??????

[@johnc.calhoun7755]

Howie47 So a separate a giant tyranny into smaller tyrannies? That's not the answer. The answer is that we need democracy and consent. The people need to own themselves and their state first but your plan doesn't have any of that now does it?

[@Howie47]

More competition and more education. Let each region sink or float on it's own merits. Instead of relying on other regions to artificially prop them up. Democracy never worked. Study its history. Majorities end up choosing some evil dictator who promises to give them everything they want and make them great. "flattery is how the Bible says Satan takes over." How can the wants of the majority ever equal a successful venture? Every ship without a helm, ends up floundering on the rocks.

[@johnc.calhoun7755]

Howie47 Either the People consent to their government, or they DON'T, no matter how you spin your words. By law, each state is a sovereign nation, supremely owned and ruled by its People; government is their SERVANT and they can overrule it. Under your current lies. however, the USA is a single nation, and NOBODY owns it-- and thus power DEFAULTS to the federal oligarchy. So do you favor majority or minority rule? "How can the wants of the majority ever equal a successful venture?" Well corporations seem to have no trouble. They are run by the majority of the shareholders and they even elect representative i.e. a board of directors.

[@jessevanhalen6967]

Howard, you're the only intelligent comment here. I know it's from seven years ago, but I appreciate you trying to wake the masses up from this dangerous demagogue.

[@Dieselmechanic509]

the funny thing is his is saying communism failed, and Nazism failed. well what he fails to mention is so has democracy

[@signalfire6]

So has capitalism.

[@kingofcobwebs]

If democracy has failed, so has humanity.

[@Dieselmechanic509]

kingofcobwebs already at that point

[@jamescioffi3796]

Dieselmechanic509 our system is not truly a democracy, it is an oligarchy where the peoples will does not determine anything, money is what determines who has power and influence in law

Liberty doesnt fail.

damn right at 13 min.

[@Brandon_737]

Great speech but i heard nothing about succession by definition until the last 5 mins lol.

[@immaculatesquid]

i wish Ron Paul, Ross Perot, or Thomas Sowell wouldve got the republican nomination some time in their lifetime. imagine if sowell came after reagan instead of HW. maybe clinton loses to perot in 96', perot serves two terms, we get 1 term of obama or kerry and then we get two terms of Ron Paul, then we get trump. I can dream. i wish there were a 3 party system at least. Not as if Libertarians had to hijack the neocon party anytime we want to win. i do consider myself a republican though.

[@CounterCultured]

se·ces·sion noun the action of withdrawing formally from membership of a federation or body, especially a political state. "the republics want secession from the union" ...................Im in.....................are you?................

[@xKillerClownx]

No, since my state's constitution does not allow for secession. I am all for those states who wish to secede, and can do so legally within their own state laws, in doing such at the will of their people, though.

[@maskedwalnut]

xKillerClownx I dont think Washington and Jefferson cared is secession was "legal".

[@gideondavid30]

xKillerClownx Secession doesn't need to be subscribed into law. The Declaration of Independence was a legal counterargument to Great Britain's legal authority. The principles of liberty are outlined in there.

[@tedosmond413]

"...the great evil of our times, central banking."....ok, sure, you got it junior

[@gamevalor]

It's best to keep America strong together and give more autonomy to the states like a Confederacy. United we stand as a confederacy, divided most states are too small and insignificant on a global level. That's why secession isn't a reasonable option. The Mises Institute and Ron Paul are unfortunately obsessed with it which is disappointing. You should study the best alternative option of a Confederacy.

[@douglasalan7786]

[@howardclegg6497]

I appreciate Ron very much but he misses the point that we are in war of societies, mostly religios on their end which, playing nice will not work in this fight. We have lost focus of this and as a result we fear things that need not be feared and at times allow their rise in our passion for equallity. Our overbearing responses assist in thise that we target. The prize eludes us as we can't see the threat and how it moves whilst they underdtand us competely. Our resolve is being tested which devides us these days. As a result, we exasperate the problem which only benifits those people against us driving you and I, via our elected reps, to the reduction of civil liberty in their misguided decisions. Vigelence is a great thing but in the face of an undefined national will, growing unfeatherd power wil and is currently being exploited. against what we hold dear.

How many times have you heard, "I love Ron Paul for his fiscal policy and domestic politics and stand with him 100% on these, but I simply cannot support his misguided and naive national security policy and his view on the world outside America"? There's a reason for this: his view on the Fed resonates soundly; his view on jihad against America (its root cause and how to fight it) does not. The one, he gets; the other he just doesn't get.
