As President Obama once again goes before Congress to raise the debt ceiling and the nation's national debt, and revelations about Republican candidates come out regarding their Wall Street and interest group ties, a former Assistance Secretary to the US Treasury, Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, advocated on January 14th that America's last chance to stave off economic and political destruction is to elect Ron Paul to the Presidency.
America has one last chance, and it is a very slim one. Americans can elect Ron Paul President, or they can descend into tyranny.
Why is Ron Paul America’s last chance?
Because he is the only candidate who is not owned lock, stock, and barrel by the military-security complex, Wall Street, and the Israel Lobby.
All of the others, including President Obama, are owned by exactly the same interest groups. There are no differences between them. Every candidate except Ron Paul stands for war and a police state, and all have demonstrated their complete and total subservience to Israel. The fact that there is no difference between them is made perfectly clear by the absence of substantive issues in the campaigns of the Republican candidates. – Paul Craig Roberts
As Chairman of the Institute for Political Economy, Dr. Roberts has a unique insight from his time as the Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy, and from his work as associate editor for the Wall Street Journal. Additionally, Activist Post named Dr. Roberts one of the 10 most influential people in the alternative media today, making his contributions in and out of the main stream media both well recognized and well respected.
This authority gives Dr. Roberts the power to offer insightful opinions that reach many people in the political and economic communities. His endorsement of Ron Paul, and the ideas of liberty, sound money, end to foreign intervention, and the realization of our current economic status, shows just how important, and perhaps how dire the timeframe is as we head towards the elections of 2012.
There are two camps of economists and financiers in the world today. Those who see the writing on the wall, and the destruction ready to spring forth after decades of global Keynesian economics, and there are those who wish to keep the status quo, ignoring the signs such as today's report on an imminent Greek collapse. Ron Paul is one of the very few who saw the destruction in its early stages, and spoke out on it for more than 30 years. It took a global credit crisis in 2008, and now a liquidity crisis in 2011 for many to become aware of the people and processes involved, and as America reaches the legendary Rubicon of default and crisis, a respected economist by the name of Dr. Paul Craig Roberts is advocating that there is only one choice for the Presidency, and only one choice in potentially staving off the end of the American way of life.
