Dr. Paul has miraculously achieved this victory with the help of a few men, his staff, and some alternative media outlets. Given a daily show on a mainstream media channel, and he will civilize and cultivate the whole nation.
Ever since he ran for president in early 2007, Dr. Paul has been ringing the liberty bells, and finally a part of his work is near completion, however, it is a bit early to reflect on this splendid moment---let's not forget that the game is rigged. Still, we have in Dr. Paul a wise man whose character has inspired a revolution and a brand new intercourse of ideas on several matters of importance to the country. But beyond his personal attributes, he is also a formidable political opponent to the Establishment, and that is why he is feared by all statists.
Words are not nearly enough to express my gratitude for Dr. Paul's persistent courage and conscience in his long journey. He has led a remarkable and select life. As Emerson's child, he has protected the Republic's shrine; liberty. "Wild liberty develops iron conscience," Emerson evoked, whose wisdom has become tradition. And Dr. Paul, being the principal advocate of conscience in Congress, has carried on this uniquely American tradition.
In 1901, the young James Joyce wrote a letter to the playwright Ibsen, and his last few remarks in that letter are worthy to be repeated by me to Dr. Paul, who in addition to preserving the mantle of liberty, has gave birth to new life in American politics.
As one of the young generation for whom you have spoken I give you greeting--not humbly, because I am obscure and you in the glare, not sadly, because you are an old man and I am a young man, not presumptuously, nor sentimentally--but joyfully, with hope and with love, I give you greeting. - James Joyce
