May 5 Presidential Primary, Ron Paul is In!

12-term US representative and grassroots Texan Republican Dr. Ron Paul, 75, announces he's getting closer to the 2012 presidential run while in Des Moines by confirming his exploratory committee. Monday night Paul slipped a Tuesday PAC teaser on Sean Hannity [Fox News Channel].

Yesterday the announcement comes from Ron Paul himself while at the Holiday Inn hotel near the International Airport in Des Moines. Just as Paul pitched the night before.

PAC, political action committee, will turn out to be Ron's powerhouse of campaign support. A committee formed by Paul to assist in funding Paul's political activities. A committee compared to the looking glass of potential future cabinet members. But let's not get carried away with ourselves just yet.

What is next? May 5th at the Peace Center in Greenville, South Carolina.

May 5 -- First scheduled presidential primary debate sponsored by Fox News. The rules are simple. Republicans either commit exploratory or in formal before April 29th or don't qualify for the 2012 presidential run. South Carolina will hold the first debate.

On May 6 -- At the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center the 44th Annual Silver Elephant Banquet will have an open 2012 presidential forum for the first time since the banquet was established. Invitations stretching to all candidates who plan to "take back the White House." [p2012.org]

South Carolina Republican Party Chairman Karen Floyd openly shares this enthusiasm calling the "field of candidates" an exciting beginning into the 2012 presidential primary. Floyd is not alone.

On May 7 -- The SCGOP State Convention takes place.

Let's get down and dirty.

"Dr. No", a name given by Paul's opposition, reflects the multiple times Paul has voted "no" in Congress if a bill involved breaching of the US Constitution in any fashion.

The US Constitution is much like an original US birth certificate. A paper US citizens value and respect. A contract that qualifies Americans a chance at becoming the US president one day.

Paul describes Obama as the only threat in his way towards the White House. As Paul shoots for a third run, Obama goes for two. It appears unemployment levels and the growing debt will be Obama's weak string. Obama's 2008 campaign slogan may work against him with this 2012 answer. We need change.

According to CBS News Obama promised to cut the debt down by half within four years. But that was in 2009. 2009 + 4 = 2013. What appears possible back then is slowly churning into an impossibility. Money does not grow on trees but can be printed by the Federal Reserve.

Paul has been flagging the Federal Reserves for years. Unfortunately, all the political bashing against Dr. Paul created a cloud over his Federal message. According to Paul the income tax should not exist and the Federal Reserves should stop continuing the process which brings America into further debt.

The problem?

Americans have grown so adapted to the Federal Reserve that they can't imagine life without it. The world will not fall apart with a Federal Reserve overhaul. Not the case at all. If anything, America would end up saving themselves financially in the long run. Paul pitches this proudly.

The bank monopoly was created to assist that moment in history following the Great Depression and battlefield war. A temporary decade fix that continues to last for almost 100 years. The Federal Reserve is a network of twelve FR banks and branches with the oversight of Board of Governors [Federal Reserve Board]. It was first established in 1913.

In 2010 the Federal Reserve reportedly made a profit of $82 BILLION dollars. Some voters want Ben S. Bernanke, head of the Federal Reserve System, to show them the money!

The monster bank institution faced opposition multiple times. Bernie Madoff was rumored to consider the Federal Reserve a financial scam. No one knows Ponzi like Bernie. And this information makes Paul's anti-Federal Reserve System focus even more appealing.

Unlike Obama or the Federal Reserves, Paul shares a good portion of Lincoln's beliefs over monies. Green Backs were printed by Lincoln after honest Abe told foreign leaders to keep their money because it would be better to have a self-sufficient nation. Well, Abe was shot after that. By a man who's father held an established position in Europe.

But don't expect Paul to print his own money. Ron Paul is against the Feds printing money, period. Most Americans know Ron is seriously against the Federal Reserves without painting a no Fed logo on his forehead. The 2012 presidential campaign will knock America to her financial knees.

Do you like paying tax? Ron Paul says you shouldn't have to pay income tax. Barack Obama makes you pay income taxes. Much to weigh and consider.

The presidential campaign is young. With dropouts before it takes off and bashing already passing right and left, the 2012 presidential campaign will be the most intense campaign race America has ever seen. Obama wants it bad. Bad. Paul wants it if you want him to have the seat. But the vote is yours!

America and the freedom of speech is a wonderful thing. So, remember, whenever someone does not pull for your choice it doesn't make them less of human or bad. Debate in a healthy fashion to avoid heart stress. Especially on political views.

More to come as the presidential campaign horses shine their shoes for May 5 in approaching the 2012 post. And you know what comes next.

Prepare for post-time!
