Preserving Liberty Everywhere

Ron Paul - The American Power Structure (1988)

Revealing interview from the August, 1988 broadcast of Frank Morrow's "Alternative Views" found at archive.org. It cements Dr. Paul's ... all » place as America's leading economic prophet crying in the wilderness and a voice we ignore at our own loss. At the time of the interview, Dr. Paul was the Libertarian candidate for president.

From the original description:

"Former four-term Congressman Ron Paul describes the American power structure. As a member of the House Banking and Currency Committee, Paul was in a unique position to see the inner workings of economic power and control of the country, and how this power translates into political power. Paul describes how, through the control of the Federal Reserve and the banking system, the American power elite is basically out of reach of the democratic system."

There's a lot of information contained. Dr. Paul rightly states that many politicians in DC aren't informed about the nature of banking or economics, a condition that serves the interests of the central banking establishment.

He also rightly states that the Federal Reserve, due to its secrecy and power, is nothing less than evil. This American agrees.

And Ron Paul is still the only candidate from either party that isn't a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

Please excuse the sub-standard editing job. It's my first venture with video software (thanks http://www.squared5.com).
