WHAT RON PAUL REALLY MEANS FOR AFRICAN AMERICANS

This is a clip from 2008, but the reasons she cites have only multiplied and become more powerful:

Ending the war on drugs – Ending the war on guns – Ending the prison-industrial complex – Returning the schools to the people – Ending welfare dependency – Ending unjust foreign wars – Truth – Freedom – Coming together.

Ron Paul Brings People Together
(while the media divides them)

Speaker (African-American woman who supports Ron Paul):

Black people, African Americans, people of color, whatever you want to call yourself, don’t be afraid. We cannot vote for people based on the color of their skin. We cannot vote for people based on their gender. We have to look at the truth.

This war on drugs is killing our children, it’s killing our families, it’s killing our communities.

This war on guns is killing our children, it’s killing our families.

There are too many of our men sitting in prison.

There are too many black women without husbands because young black boys are struggling in school.

We need the education system turned back to the states. And we need to get rid of these federal (not clear).

So we can build our families back, and love each other and take care of each other.

Don’t be afraid. Take a stand. Believe in the truth.

I just heard Barack Obama is going to send a 100,000 more troops.

He said that I think in March. I am really against the war. I have a 12 year old son who is brilliant. I come from a family of veterans so I have no problem with people fighting for your country.

But we need to fight in just wars.

Nobody matches Ron Paul in telling the truth as they know it.

I don’t want to call them liars. We want to be tasteful here.

But freedom is popular.

Freedom is truth and truth is power.
