Ron Paul 2012 Podcast

A spirited full house greeted former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul in Oberlin College’s Finney Chapel on Sunday evening as a part of the college’s Convocation Series. Dr. Paul came through Oberlin on a speaking tour to give a lecture, “Liberty Defined,” from Paul’s 2011 book of the same name. The retired congressman enthusiastically extolled the virtues of small government, limited regulation, personal property rights and the resurgence of an ethos of government that promoted “individual liberty protected equally” for all people. The lecture was sponsored by the Oberlin College Republicans and Libertarians. Video compliments of YouTube User: Tumbleweedin.

So, it looks like Senator Rand Paul has pulled back his media availability significantly over the last week. After all, he's probably talked to nearly every pundit in the business since his historic filibuster. The doctor is under heavy scrutiny from all sides given his sudden media prominence. The liberal media is on the attack, as are the hardcore social conservatives- who were quick to pick up on what they viewed as his soft immigration, marriage, and abortion policies. Moreover, the Senator is not getting a whole lot of love from the libertarians, either. Since there were few interviews over the last week, I've posted some audio that I missed the first time around throughout the month of March. Links to the original media sources are included in the file description; included audio can be heard in the order listed below: (0:00) Republican US Senator from Kentucky Rand Paul talks about guns, sequestration, immigration reform, and more with NewsTalk 800 & 1600 WVHU's (Huntington, WV) Tom Roten.

Dr. Ron Paul's itinerary has really began to fill up after a couple of months of rest. The Congressman's radio minute is airing in markets across the country, and he now has several more dates scheduled on university campuses over the next several weeks. Over the last few weeks, the honorary chairman of the Campaign for Liberty has spoke at George Washington University, at the Manning Conference in Ottawa, at Financial Adviser Magazine's Retirement Symposium in Orlando, at the Sovereign Man Conference in Santiago, Chile, the CAL summit in Calgary, and now at the Homeschooling Convention in Cincinnati. Now, Rep. Paul has never gotten the media coverage he has deserved. Unfortunately, he receives even less press now that he is no longer running for President and has retired from the Congress! I haven't had nearly the amount of Ron Paul coverage that I had hoped to post for you all. Luckily, Rand Paul has been a fixture in the headlines, and Reps. Amash and Massie are really worth listening to. Additionally, I will continue to post news analysis and commentary from voices that are prominent to the liberty movement.

For the second time in the last month, Dr. Ron Paul spoke to a conservative group in Canada- this time addressing attendees at the 2013 CAL "Making Alberta Safe for Capitalism" Summit at the Westin in Calgary, AB. The former Congressman and Presidential candidate delivered the Lunchtime Keynote, entitled: The Dangers of Big Government: Lessons for Canada from the US. Dr. Paul shared his thoughts on fiscal responsibility, using examples from the dysfunctional American system and anecdotes from his 23 years in Congress focusing on the most pressing issues of all - how to structurally eliminate deficits and debt.

On Thursday morning, Ron Paul joined 55KRC's (Cincinnati, OH) Brian Thomas to promote the Homeschooling Convention that he will keynote at over the weekend. The two spoke about the attack on liberty and the need to challenge the public education complex, as well as the so-called GOP autopsy report and the need to prepare for reform in light of the coming debt crisis.

In his latest installment of Texas Straight Talk,  former Congressman Ron Paul reacts to the ongoing banking crisis in Europe and the outrageous theft taken directly from bank accounts in exchange for a bailout from the ECB. Government's cannot be trusted when they see their power hanging on by a thread, and the EU superstate is the culmination of generations of elitist technocrats.

Just because Rand Paul cut back on his broadcast interviews this week doesn't mean that he didn't make any news headlines! To the chagrin of the neocons and the advocates of right-wing social engineering, it is becoming increasingly clear that Senator Paul is an early frontrunner for the 2016 Republican nomination. Likewise, the usual suspects on the left are in total demonization/marginalization mode. The media is busy reacting to the Senator's most recent 5 year balanced budget proposal, his pro-life personhood amendment, and his plan for comprehensive immigration reform. But towards the end of the week, Sen. Paul has made yet another splash in the legislative process with a filibuster on the Obama administration's gun control initiatives. Unfortunately, this doesn't appear to be another old-fashioned talking filibuster, but rather a filibuster of the procedural variety that will require a bill to receive a 60 vote super-majority in the Senate. Ann Coulter (IMHO the modern day female version of Morton Downey Junior) has joined Bill Krytol on the attack against Dr. Paul's foreign policy of moderation, as well as his ambitions for higher office. Sen. Paul also returned to Kentucky to speak at UK in Lexington.

Sorry for the delay, but here's a huge chunk of audio for your listening pleasure. Unfortunately, its getting harder and harder to find Ron Paul specific news, even when he's out and about speaking to crowds. Very little multimedia of Dr. Paul's speaking engagements have been available since the man signed on with the Greater Talent Network, and there must be a no video policy in place. On Saturday, the former Congressman spoke at the Sovereign Man conference in Santiago, Chile- and no video of this speech seems to exist as of yet. Sen. Rand Paul continues to make waves in the aftermath of his CPAC straw poll victory, and yet snipers continue to come out of the woodwork to bash the Senator.
