Ron Paul: The Trouble With Forced Integration As Ron Paul today said he will continue his campaign for the Presidency with a reduced staff, it may be appropriate to recognize one of the most important votes he cast during his political career when Ron Paul was the only Congressman to vote against a resolution saluting the 40th Anniversary of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Here is the text of his speech. by Rep. Ron Paul, MD Mr. Speaker, I rise to explain my objection to H.Res. 676. I certainly join my colleagues in urging Americans to celebrate the progress this country has made in race relations. However, contrary to the claims of the supporters of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the sponsors of H.Res. 676, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 did not improve race relations or enhance freedom. Instead, the forced integration dictated by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 increased racial tensions while diminishing individual liberty. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 gave the federal government unprecedented power over the hiring, employee relations, and customer service practices of every business in the country. The result was a massive violation of the rights of private property and contract, which are the bedrocks of free society. The federal government has no legitimate authority to infringe on the rights of private property owners to use their property as they please and to form (or not form) contracts with terms mutually agreeable to all parties. The rights of all private property owners, even those whose actions decent people find abhorrent, must be respected if we are to maintain a free society. This expansion of federal power was based on an erroneous interpretation of the congressional power to regulate interstate commerce. The framers of the Constitution intended the interstate commerce clause to create a free trade zone among the states, not to give the federal government regulatory power over every business that has any connection with interstate commerce. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 not only violated the Constitution and reduced individual liberty; it also failed to achieve its stated goals of promoting racial harmony and a color-blind society. Federal bureaucrats and judges cannot read minds to see if actions are motivated by racism. Therefore, the only way the federal government could ensure an employer was not violating the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was to ensure that the racial composition of a business’s workforce matched the racial composition of a bureaucrat or judge’s defined body of potential employees. Thus, bureaucrats began forcing employers to hire by racial quota. Racial quotas have not contributed to racial harmony or advanced the goal of a color-blind society. Instead, these quotas encouraged racial balkanization, and fostered racial strife. Of course, America has made great strides in race relations over the past forty years. However, this progress is due to changes in public attitudes and private efforts. Relations between the races have improved despite, not because of, the 1964 Civil Rights Act. In conclusion, Mr. Speaker, while I join the sponsors of H.Res. 676 in promoting racial harmony and individual liberty, the fact is the Civil Rights Act of 1964 did not accomplish these goals. Instead, this law unconstitutionally expanded federal power, thus reducing liberty. Furthermore, by prompting raced-based quotas, this law undermined efforts to achieve a color-blind society and increased racial strife. Therefore, I must oppose H.Res. 676. July 3, 2004 Comments:3

With Romney gone, the chances of a brokered convention are nearly zero. But that does not affect my determination to fight on, in every caucus and primary remaining, and at the convention for our ideas, with just as many delegates as I can get. But with so many primaries and caucuses now over, we do not now need so big a national campaign staff, and so I am making it leaner and tighter. Of course, I am committed to fighting for our ideas within the Republican party, so there will be no third party run. I do not denigrate third parties—just the opposite, and I have long worked to remove the ballot-access restrictions on them. But I am a Republican, and I will remain a Republican.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Paul_presidential_campaign,_2008#First_quarter_2008 “In February, suicide terrorism expert professor Robert Pape joined the campaign as foreign policy advisor; Ivan Eland and Leon Hadar also joined Paul’s foreign policy team.[38]” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_Hadar ”Dr. Hadar graduated from Hebrew University in Jerusalem and completed his graduate studies at Columbia University, where he earned M.A. degreees from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism and the School of International and Public Affairs as well as a certificate from the Middle East Institute. He received his Ph.D. from the School of International Service (SIS) at American University.” The bottom of the wiki article says he’s an Israeli citizen. <u>Translation:</u> Fire local white organizational staff and hire Washington-NYC-Jerusalem Jews to loot the remaining stash of campaign funds. I suppose we can forget about keeping Ron Paul’s campaign organization around for OUR purposes. 4

They’ve learned another hard lesson, I’m afraid, about national campaigns orchestrated on the Internet. The virtual isn’t real. White political movements must be local, perpetual, and built upon <u>microcommunities and alternate economics:</u> Real stuff for real people. 5

Therefore, the 1964 Civil Rights Act didn’t hurt race relations except in a minority of cases where Whites were negatively effected. To this liberals say, “one must break a few eggs to make an omelet.” Ron Paul! Ron Paul! Robert Pape! Ivan Eland! Leon Hadar! Ron Paul! Ron Paul! 6

So, in the interest of reinforcing the medicine prescribed for others… Won’t Get Fooled Again – The Who {…} “There’s nothing in the street “I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution “Meet the new boss Wanna bet that many on the racialist right have “learned” the wrong lesson from the Ron Paul {RIP} experience? I’ll bet the idea that all voting is useless has been reinforced. 7
Posted by James Bowery on Sun, 10 Feb 2008 02:37 | # Don’t just grouse. If you haven’t already started other projects with your local Ron Paul supporters, better strike while the iron is hot. You want to set up local economies, industries, agriculture, practical skills education, etc? Ron Paul supporters are great for it (well compared to your typical demographic—I know… I know…) and now is the time. 8
Posted by GT on Sun, 10 Feb 2008 07:15 | # JB writes: Don’t just grouse. Yes, you’re right. That’s what I’m doing. Since receiving the “leaner and tighter” email I’ve been pissed about R. Paul’s {RIP} capitulation and sell-out to the kikes, as are family members and friends – one of whom made nice contributions to the campaign. The fact I knew this would happen but ultimately “rolled with flow” has led to a small personal and strategic reassessment, along with the hope that others might be encouraged to do the same. Then there’s the fact that outside of my relatively tiny group I don’t know how serious RP supporters – especially the racial nationalist wing who should be “leading the revolution,” so to speak – are about getting off their asses and doing real work toward White independence at the local level. I’m not encouraged, which is why I complain. Nevertheless I persist, because at worst I’m nothing more than a “persona non grata” member of a historically unsuccessful non-movement and at best I may help to inspire a handful of young doers to succeed. R. Paul: I am committed to fighting for our ideas within the Republican party, so there will be no third party run. No third party effort and a campaign (with its funds) turned over to kikes. Straight from the horse’s mouth. Get it through your heads, folks: The Republican Party must be destroyed, regardless of who is running for president. But voting for Hillbama is not the answer. Worse is not necessarily better. We must build our own political infrastructure comprised of perpetual, independent campaigns in rural areas and based upon collaborative microcommunities, alternate local economies, and alternate local social support groups. 9
Posted by James Bowery on Sun, 10 Feb 2008 08:26 | # Might I suggest a good first step for Ron Paul resources (people now feeling discarded) is getting them to understand that they need to accept local currency minted by farmers to pay them for laboring on the farms—in exchange for the farmers guaranteeing that they’ll accept 90% of their payment for food in the same local currency. Remember, the Ron Paul audiences applaud most loudly for the repeal of the Federal Reserve Act—and they have very serious awareness of inflating food prices. 10

Here‘s a concrete example of that trouble, one of thousands of concrete examples that take place every year in this country if not every month at some level or other (probably every week, when you get right down to it). (Hat tip) 11

The Pope, the Vatican, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and the Church of England as a whole join the Jews in rejoicing over it. They join the Jews in being ecstatic that it has happened. They love looking at this photo and want to see more, lots more, just like it and worse. They crave it. How do we know all that? Because of their steadfast refusal to do anything to put a stop to it though their power to help stop it is immense, and not just that but they viciously attack any good folk who step forward no matter how politely, respectfully, and timidly to question in the least what’s going on. They slander, punish, crush that person completely. They neither work toward a remedy well within reach nor countenance any who do. When you stubbornly refuse to stop something you could easily help thwart and, moreover, you methodically launch dramatic, hysterical, absolutely illogical and shockingly mendacious but extremely aggressive and damaging onslaughts against those who are politely and respectfully trying to find some remedy, the meaning is clear. No one flies into a frightful rage at attempts to end what he hates, only at attempts to end what he loves and adores with every fiber of his being. The Pope, the Vatican, and the Catholics join the Jews in loving and adoring this photo with every fiber of their being.

(Prozium’s like that — he’s apt to show flashes of brilliance followed by ... well ... to be charitable let’s just call it “followed by disappointments” ...) Well, actually race is NOT everything as several of us have argued at this site. Yet when we’ve said that ethnicity and nationality are more substantive identities and so they should usually come first it has often been Prozium (under other names) who has disagreed and proclaimed that “whiteness” is all that matters. I guess he has changed his mind. I recall him once saying he could never vote for a creationist like Tom Tancredo then turning around about a week later and arguing at his blog that Tancredo was the best candidate because he put immigration first. So what does he consider to be the priority this week? 21

The more I read of this man, the more I realize he truly IS in the ranks of Jefferson, Adams, and the Founding Fathers.
Amazing, that a man of such principle and stature can be contrasted in a heartbeat with a mere figurehead politico who is nothing more than a cultist ‘pretty face’ (I am speaking of Romney, of course).
