Partial transcript: How do we get away with paying for these bills, and endless spending occurs and government keeps growing?… it cannot occur if you have a sound monetary system; That is why I have emphasized the importance of having a sound dollar and why we need to reign in the Federal Reserve system; If we obeyed the law, we would have sound money… the Constitution still says that only gold and silver should be legal tender; You can understand why government grows… because politicians don’t have to be responsible; That’s why they invented in 1913 this financial system based on fiat money and printing money, because you can delay the pain and penalty; I used to say so often over the years that, “you know, we run up these debts… and we pass them on to the next generation… we shouldn’t do it…”, but you know what’s different today… we are the next generation and we’re suffering the consequences; If you just print money, the value of the money goes down, and the people’s standards go down; Already the people on fixed incomes… their standard of living is going down; The middle class is shrinking; Unemployment, if you look at those honestly, is closer to 20%, and the people are very, very concerned about this; The answers come with a very uncomplicated solution… we got into this mess by too many people in Washington either didn’t care or didn’t understand the Constitution… we need to restore the Constitution and we must restore liberty

Partial transcript: Generally speaking my views are different in reality than the other candidates… although the rhetoric might not be extremely different, in reality it is different… because so often we have candidates that will talk about some changes but basically still support the status quo; The status quo today is too much ignoring the Constitution; We’ve gotten into this trouble because we’ve avoided following the Constitution… it shouldn’t be difficult to get out of trouble by just having only people in Washington who obey the Constitution–that’s what I think we oughta do; It also reflects an educational system that over many many decades have taught generations of Americans that the Constitution is not to be a rigid document; Since we got careless with this, the document doesn’t mean a whole lot; The Founders of this country… put it in there that only gold and silver could be legal tender, you couldn’t have a central bank, and you couldn’t print money… but look at where we are… and we didn’t change the Constitution; There is no authority for the federal government to be running education… therefore we don’t need the Department of Education; When you [the executive branch] write a regulation, you’re writing a law… and that’s the executive branch doing what only the legislative branch is supposed to be doing… we need to challenge this someday

Partial transcript: I can remember the very early years studying obstetrics–and it was before the age of abortion–and I was told taking care of a woman that’s pregnant, you have two patients… and I think that solves a lot of the problem by when life begins and all; In the 1960′s when the culture was changing… abortion became prevalent even though it was illegal; So the morality of the country changed, but then the law followed up; When the morality changes, it will reflect on the laws; Law will not correct the basic problem, and that’s the morality of the people; You need the government out of that business [medicine] or you will always argue over who’s paying what bills; I follow what my understanding is of the Constitution, and it does allow for the states to deal with difficult problems… as a matter of fact, it allows the states to deal with almost all the problems, if you look at it; These powers aren’t given to the Congress… I see abortion as a violent act… all other violence is handled by the states–murder, burglary, violence… that’s a state issue; Don’t try to say that I’m less pro-life because I want to be particular about the way we do it and allow the states the prerogative; This is the solution… if we would allow the states to write their laws, take away the jurisdiction by a majority vote in the Congress, you repeal Roe v. Wade overnight, instead of waiting year after year to change the court system

Partial transcript: Yesterday that vote on raising the national debt limit by 1.2 was a real farce in many ways, because the debt is going to be increased; The debt is automatically going up $1.2 trillion… nobody seems to care… if they did, they would take my advice and cut the budget by $1 trillion dollars in one year… is what we need; The wealth in this country is basically debt… we’re running the world on debt; The dollar will be rejected, and it has been rejected in many ways already; I got involved in politics in 1971 when the last link to gold was undermined and removed… believing then that would mean the politicians could spend money endlessly and have no responsibility… and that’s exactly what has happened; If you take a look at the value of your dollar since 1971, it went down 85%; If someone put their money away 40 years ago and now they’re going to retire… the money they put away has been gradually eroded… the dollars they put away in 1971 would be worth 15 cents; This is criminal… this is immoral… it’s bad economics; This is why we have to look to the Constitution, realizing the Constitution still says only gold and silver can be used as legal tender; There’s no authority in the Constitution to print money, and there’s no authority for the Federal Reserve system at all

Dr. Ron Paul

Partial transcript: The attack on personal liberties has continued; First, after 9/11 it was the Patriot Act; The Patriot Act was not invented because of 9/11… it had been invented several years before; An opportunity arises for those who like to put those kind of laws on us… saw that as an opportunity… so within a week or two, the Patriot Act was passed; If we could have renamed it, it wouldn’t have passed; If they had called that the “Repeal of the 4th Amendment Act”, maybe nobody would have voted for it then… because that’s essentially what it did; We have lost our privacy–they can invade our homes without legitimate search warrants; The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)–a very, very bad piece of legislation; The provisions in there essentially have repealed Posse Comitatus; The president now is allowed to use the military to arrest any American citizen as a probably cause; Not only can you be arrested by the military–that’s only half of it–you can be kept in secret confinement indefinitely and denied an attorney… and that is not part of what America should be; If we’re to restore the republic, we would be repealing the Patriot Act as well as this authority to arrest American citizens by the U.S. Army–that should not be permissible; There’s something much bigger than me going on in this country… it’s been going on for 4, 5, 6 years, and it’s growing by leaps and bounds… and that is the freedom movement–people really are understanding what’s going on; If we do nothing, though, the status quo will drive us down… the bankruptcy of the country will lead to chaos; We can’t continue this wild spending overseas and the wild entitlement spending here–it won’t work… the endpoint will be a monetary financial event

Partial transcript: The easiest place to cut–for all Americans–should be this wild, runaway spending overseas–that’s where we need to cut; If you do that, and change the military budget, you don’t give up one penny of national defense, because you can have more defense with less money if we quit this nation building and the policemen of the world–we don’t need to be doing that; That means we’d be bringing a lot of troops back home; The military gives me the most amount of money… twice as much as all the other candidates; Maybe they’re tired of those wars as well; We’re supposedly over there to defend our Constitution… but how do you go to war that’s not declared under the rules of the Constitution? How can these be constitutional wars?; Just think how simple this problem could be solved… don’t go to war unless the Congress declares it

Host: Len Osanic
Guest: Jesse Ventura
Notes: Jesse Ventura’s court case… they won’t even allow him to go to court to see if his 4th Amendment rights are being violated; Administrative law brought in by Woodrow Wilson–he’s the one that brought us the Federal Reserve; They skirt the Constitution; When you go to an airport today, you are not protected by the Constitution or the Bill of Rights; Jesse sued the TSA; Why is it the government’s job to provide security for the airlines when they’re a private sector business?; The way it is now, you have to go out there and prove you’re innocent; Jesse won’t go anywhere where he’s treated like a criminal, and at today’s airports he is treated like a criminal

Date: 12/16/11
Host: Jay Leno
Guest: Ron Paul
Notes: Social issues; Gay marriage; Dr. Paul’s position on marriage is that the government ought to just stay out of it totally and completely and quit arguing about it; Dr. Paul does very well with social conservatives because he recognizes the principle of life and liberty; Probably the most important social/family issue today is the economy–the family is threatened by this bad economy; Taxes; The tax collection is a symptom of an appetite for big government, so the people have to change their mind… if the people want us to be the policemen of the world and have welfare from cradle to grave, then you can’t get rid of taxation and we’ll continue on until we’re totally bankrupt and our currency fails; But if you want a constitutional government–limited government–you really don’t have to have an income tax, but the people have to make up their mind; You have to get the economy growing again, and that means you have to cut spending… that’s why Dr. Paul has proposed cutting spending the first year by $1 trillion

Notes: States’ rights; We shouldn’t have 100,000 federal bureaucrats telling the states and the people what to do; Interstate commerce; We don’t want prior restraint with our 1st Amendment… we don’t want prior restraint in the business sector either; Property rights should be protected–states should do it; States can have agreements, but then if there’s an argument, then the federal government should be involved; If you’re a real strict property rights person… environments are protected because it’s property and you can’t ever damage or pollute your neighbor’s property, so it actually would have been a lot stricter than what happened in the Industrial Revolution where big business and big government got together and allowed too much pollution to occur; There’s nothing that says the federal government has the authority to regulate alcohol and drugs; The federal government should protect our right to do to our body what we want–the government can’t protect us from ourself; Dr. Paul is for seat belts, but against seat belt laws; A lot more people die from and there’s more danger with alcohol than there is with marijuana

Notes: Dr. Paul’s message has been the same, but the country is changing; He tried to prevent some wars from starting… now the American people are tired of the wars; He’s talked a lot about economics… that’s what really got him motivated to run for office; There was a lot of handwriting on the wall about financial bubbles and housing bubbles… now that they have come about, the credibility has built and the people are very worried about the economy, and that’s something Dr. Paul has talked about for a long, long time; Dr. Paul is doing the strongest among young people; Freedom is very appealing–it’s based on principle; Younger people tend to be more principled… later on we’re taught to blend in and mesh in and go along with the crowd; The role that the federal government should play in people’s lives is very minimal… we have a document that tells us exactly what it should be, and that’s the Constitution; Article 1, Section 8; The purpose of the federal government is to preserve liberty, to allow people to run their own lives, to spend their own money…

Chris Pinto discusses the true beliefs of the founding fathers with Derek Gilbert from A View From the Bunker…

[Part 31 of an ongoing series. Click here for Part 1.]

Show: A View From The Bunker
Full Podcast: VFTB Live: Chris Pinto — Hidden Faith of the Founding Fathers
Date: 10/29/10
Host: Derek Gilbert
Guest: Chris Pinto
Topics: The idea of “separation of church and state”; James Madison is considered the “father of the Constitution”… he writes extensively about a separation of church and state, over and over again; We’re told by guys like David Barton that the separation of church and state is just based on one letter from Thomas Jefferson writing to a baptist pastor, where he uses the phrase… but that’s not true; It was a very pointed and deliberate thing they did keeping God out of the Constitution–they even had a vote in Congress about it; The Treaty of Tripoli – drafted during the administration of George Washington, ratified by John Adams; Article 11 of the Treaty of Tripoli says that the government of the United States is not in any way founded on the Christian religion; According to what other researchers have published, the original Arabic treaty does not have Article 11 in it… somebody inserted Article 11 later on when it came to America; According to Moncure D. Conway (19th century historian), George Washington himself was the one who drafted it, and he sent it over to the Senate, presumably to be added to the treaty… it was unanimously agreed upon on the floor of the Senate; It’s not a very good argument to say you’re going to deny Christ to make the Muslims happy… that’s not a godly Christian example for a “Christian” nation to set for anyone; The Senate ratified it unanimously–you’d think that if there were Christians in the Senate who were really disturbed by it, at least somebody would have objected to that part of the treaty; Dr. Ashbel Green said the revolutionaries were infidels… Dr. Bird Wilson preached a sermon and said that none of the men representing the new revolutionary government were men making a public profession of Christianity

Full Podcast: VFTB Live: Chris Pinto — Hidden Faith of the Founding Fathers
Date: 10/29/10
Host: Derek Gilbert
Guest: Chris Pinto
Topics: The whole argument of the founding fathers as alleged Christians is being used by people like Glenn Beck and David Barton to energize Christians and entangle them in this political right-wing agenda… to politicize Christianity in our American system and “take America back” to the founding fathers; The problem is… the founding fathers–by biblical definition–were antichrists; The Bible says “who is antichrist but he that denies the Father and the Son”–this is something you can prove about most of the chief founders; The founders were really deceiving the country because a lot of their views were not known by the greater body of the population; There was a movement during the Civil War era where Christians were trying to get the Constitution re-written to include references to God, and specifically references to the Lord Jesus Christ; People have been arguing against what the founders did since the Revolution–for the last 200 years; The revolutionaries were not Christian heroes–they were antichrists who were trying to destroy Christianity in our country… that’s the shocking revelation
