World Peace: The Value-Added Benefit of a Ron Paul Presidency

Unwavering in his dedication to the principles contained in our nation's founding documents, thoroughly honest, Ron Paul is a statesman of the highest character.

With advancements in technology—especially the Internet—the human race is beginning to learn a great deal more about the trappings of war and the drain it imposes on every facet of our human existence.

Considering the consequences of the least desirable of options, and with everything to gain and nothing to lose, why not actively seek a lasting world peace?

This is not about something so ingratiating as the corrupt state of politics. This is about a philosophy, a worldview; with the future of all mankind hanging in the balance. This is about wanting a fruitful, joyous, meaningful and righteous life; while, at the same time, wanting the same for all of humanity.

This is about learning to live together; about learning of the diverse ways of other cultures—yet, at the same time, also learning just how similar we all are when looking through the prism of life’s basic needs.

From the broadest perspective, the ultimate winners of the wondrous state of a world at peace would be you and I and every ordinary human being on Planet Earth; with those who would see themselves as the losers being the military-industrial complex, the money changers (bankers), and that class of self-appointed aristocrats who have historically held noteworthy sway over the politics-as-usual status quo.

Granted, to reach a firmly established and meaningful state of accord—where nonviolent and mutually beneficial relations are the predominantly sought-after objectives of world leaders—will not be an easy task; as the history of the United States since the late 1890s amply alludes to.

But being the world’s lone remaining superpower and by de facto acclaim, however, puts the USA in the unique position of having to set the precedent; as well as institute the essential elements of discourse needed to ultimately reach such a thoroughly righteous and paradigm changing worldview.

Ron Paul’s entire life has been devoted to this moment in time. He has fearlessly and tirelessly—but almost always as the lone voice—sought to diffuse the ideas contained in the “Non-Aggression-Principle”—knowing full well that the value added benefits to all mankind would be innumerable; with individual liberty and non-regulated free trade being the natural and most notable end results.

As he is oft quoted (paraphrasing): “I am not the perfect messenger, but the message contained in the precepts of “peace, prosperity and liberty”—is perfect.”

Doggedly consistent, unwavering in his dedication to the principles contained in our nation’s founding documents, thoroughly honest, Ron Paul is a statesman of the highest character.

As the testimony of the wide and varied cross section of people contained in this video will attest, Dr. Ron Paul stands alone as the sole defender of the Constitution, our individual liberties, and the noble concept of a world at peace.
