A friend told me to watch the video on Ron Paul's Web site, which is actually the third part of a longer movie. The section on Paul's site is approximately 45 minutes, but the actual full movie (on
www.zeitgeistmovie.com) is much longer. I plan to watch the full movie at another time, but I can definitely say that this third section blew my mind. Part three covers the federal reserve, war mongering, the decline of American schools, the fallacy of 9/11, and what it all means for our future.

I have seen the whole movie and I have to say that the 1st part of this movie isn't really worth watching. It doesn't seem to relate to the rest of the film, and I'm not quite sure what it's purpose is. The second part is much like the third and goes more in-depth on 9/11.
I think it's very important that we as Americans question the actions taken by our elected officials, especially when those actions violate the fundamentals upon which this country was founded. Having been in the military, I took an oath to defend the Constitution. I have been amazed at how few of our elected officials and those running for the highest office in our country even say they will uphold the Constitution (a vow they take when they are sworn into office). The ones that say they will uphold the Constitution almost always produce a voting record that contradicts this -- or worse seeks to abolish the Constitution.
The only candidate I know of whose record clearly shows his conviction to uphold the Constitution is Ron Paul (www.ronpaul2008.com). Some people will not be able to get past the fact that he's running as a Republican, but keep in mind that the only way to get elected these days is to run in one of the two major parties. So, don't let the fact that he's running as a Republican cloud the very pro-peace, pro-liberty, pro-prosperity message he brings.
