Ron Paul: A New Beginning

America is over $16 trillion in debt. The "official" unemployment rate
still hovers around 8%.

Our federal government claims the right to spy on American citizens,
indefinitely detain them, and even assassinate them without trial.

Domestic drones fly over the country for civilian surveillance.

Twelve million fewer Americans voted in 2012 than in 2008, yet
political pundits scratch their heads.

It's not hard to see why, though.

To go along with endorsing a never-ending policy of bailouts, "stimulus
packages," and foreign military adventurism, the establishment of
neither major party questions the assaults on Americans' liberties I've
named above.

As my campaign showed, the American people are fed up. Many realized
heading into Tuesday that regardless of who won the presidential
election, the status quo would be the real victor.

GOP leadership is now questioning why they didn't perform better.

They're looking at demographic changes in the United States and
implying minorities can only be brought into the party by loudly
advocating for abandoning what little remains of their limited
government platform and endorsing more statist policies.

My presidential campaign proved that standing for freedom brings people
together.

Liberty is popular - regardless of race, religion, or creed.

As long as the GOP establishment continues to not only reject the
liberty message, but actively drive away the young, diverse coalition
that supports those principles, it will see results similar to
Tuesday's outcome.

A renewed respect for liberty is the only way forward for the
Republican Party and for our country.

I urge all my Republican colleagues to join the liberty movement in
fighting for a brighter future.

His campaign only proved his warmed over
libertarian ideas were soundly rejected by
all political segments.

Right. Most Americans would rather have economic equality than freedom.

There are lots of government-free places
for those who only want "freedom".
