__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ you know __PUNCT__ there no doubt our number have been grow __PUNCT__ whether it thi primari __PUNCT__ but i have been in thi busi of promot thi caus in the elector process for a long_time __PUNCT__

at the begin __PUNCT__ i thought it wa just go to be promot of a caus __PUNCT__

then it dawn on me __PUNCT__ if you win_elect and win deleg __PUNCT__ that the wai you promot a caus __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ so we will certainli be promot thi in the most frugal wai __PUNCT__

we will be go to the caucu station __PUNCT__ state and we will be promot the whole idea of get more deleg __PUNCT__ becaus that the name of the game __PUNCT__

and we will pursu it __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ twenti or __NUM___year_ago i start and i didn't think it __PUNCT__ that it would be well receiv __PUNCT__

and __PUNCT__ obvious __PUNCT__ get elect __NUM___time meant the peopl who knew me best vote for the caus of liberti and thi caus ha continu to grow __PUNCT__

even compar to four year_ago __PUNCT__ it look like tonight we will get four to five time more vote than we did four year ago __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ so there everi reason to be encourag __PUNCT__ there everi reason that we understand so clearli that the caus is so necessari __PUNCT__

thi is what i notic about four year ago __PUNCT__

after the last elect __PUNCT__ our effort were get __PUNCT__ it __PUNCT__ thei were get more and more attent __PUNCT__

and everybodi ask me __PUNCT__ the media fleet ask me __PUNCT__ what is differ __PUNCT__ well __PUNCT__ the evid had becom clear that the effort by govern is fail __PUNCT__ and we can't depend on the govern to take care of us from cradl to grave __PUNCT__ we can't depend on the govern __PUNCT__ on it effort to promot and believ that we can polic the world and go into nation_build becaus we all gone broke __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ of cours __PUNCT__ we talk a lot about the economi and how we got into the mess and what we should do about it __PUNCT__

other have talk about it in glib term and not be specif but i see our problem as a spend problem govern is too big __PUNCT__

we do more thing __PUNCT__ all the thing we not suppos to do and we forget about do the thing we suppos to be do __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ so as a modest attempt to get back to reason budget __PUNCT__ we want to have a __MONEY___trillion cut in spend in on year __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ of cours __PUNCT__ there not __PUNCT__ there is on other littl item that i talk about __PUNCT__ not for thi campaign __PUNCT__ not for the last campaign __PUNCT__ but for the last __NUM___year __PUNCT__

as a matter of fact __PUNCT__ it motiv me in mani wai to run for congress __PUNCT__

and then it ha to do with how do we get awai with pai for these bill and endless spend occur and govern keep grow __PUNCT__

it cannot occur if you have a sound monetari_system __PUNCT__

that why i have emphas the import of have a sound dollar and why we need to rein in the feder_reserv_system __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ right __PUNCT__

you know __PUNCT__ on of the argument that thei __PUNCT__ you know __PUNCT__ pose against us for talk about the gold_standard is thei said it too complex and it riski busi __PUNCT__

but what is __PUNCT__ what can be more ridicul than sai __PUNCT__ oh __PUNCT__ monei come out of a print_press and it should be done in secret __PUNCT__ creat trillion of dollar and pass them out to the special_interest and we suppos to accept that as a good monetari_system __PUNCT__

you know __PUNCT__ it isn't all that complex __PUNCT__

as a matter of fact __PUNCT__ if we obei the law we would have sound_monei __PUNCT__

the constitut still sai that onli gold and silver should be legal_tender __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ but if on understand thi __PUNCT__ you can understand why govern_grow becaus politician don't have to be respons __PUNCT__

there variou reason why thei spend_monei __PUNCT__ but if thei __PUNCT__ you know __PUNCT__ to on degre thei can tax us but there a limit to how much __PUNCT__ becaus there will be a tax rebellion __PUNCT__

and thei can borrow and thei can get awai with that as long as the credit is good but eventu interest_rate go up __PUNCT__

that why thei invent in __NUM__ thi financi_system system_base on fiat_monei and print_monei __PUNCT__ becaus you can delai the pain and penalti __PUNCT__

and i us to sai __PUNCT__ so often __PUNCT__ over the year __PUNCT__ that __PUNCT__ you know __PUNCT__ we run up these debt and we pass them on to the next gener __PUNCT__ we shouldn't do it __PUNCT__

but you know what __PUNCT__ what differ todai __PUNCT__ we ar the next gener and we suffer the consequ __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ and thi is __PUNCT__ and thi is the reason that we cannot resolv the problem of the unfinanc entitl_system __PUNCT__ social_secur and all __PUNCT__ becaus if you just print_monei __PUNCT__ the valu of monei goe down __PUNCT__ and the peopl standard go down __PUNCT__

alreadi the peopl on fix incom __PUNCT__ their standard of live is go down __PUNCT__

the middl_class is shrink __PUNCT__

unemploy __PUNCT__ if you look at those honestli __PUNCT__ is closer to __NUM__ percent __PUNCT__ and the peopl ar veri __PUNCT__ veri concern about thi __PUNCT__

the answer come with a veri uncompl solut __PUNCT__

we got into thi mess by too mani peopl in washington either didn't care or didn't understand the constitut __PUNCT__

we need to restor the constitut __PUNCT__ and we must restor liberti __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ in order __PUNCT__ in order to do that __PUNCT__ we should spend all our resourc here at home __PUNCT__

that a good place to spend the monei __PUNCT__

thi is also the reason i have emphas so strongli about the wast and the amount of monei we spend oversea and the foreign_aid __PUNCT__

at the same_time our peopl ar suffer here at home __PUNCT__

so if we want to spend the monei __PUNCT__ we should work_hard to return the monei from oversea spend to the peopl here in thi countri __PUNCT__ and thei should spend the monei __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ but in order to do thi __PUNCT__ we all know that it is not so simpl __PUNCT__

you don't wave a wand __PUNCT__

you have to chang the peopl attitud and that is what happen __PUNCT__

the peopl attitud ar chang and thei realiz that we can't afford thi ani longer __PUNCT__

even the peopl who ar on the receiv end know thei get into troubl becaus the produc have been push out of our countri __PUNCT__

so thi is becom the opportun for us to restor the valu that had made america_great __PUNCT__

and it base on individu_liberti __PUNCT__ it base on the concept that we ar free_peopl with free spirit __PUNCT__ we should have control of our live and we should have a control of our destini __PUNCT__ but we also should have control of our monei as well __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ but thi will not be done __PUNCT__ govern doe reflect the prevail attitud of the peopl __PUNCT__

where we ar gain now is the prevail attitud of the peopl is chang __PUNCT__ and that is veri good becaus it __PUNCT__ s come our wai and sai govern is the problem __PUNCT__ it is not the solut __PUNCT__

we got into thi mess by too much spend and too much debt and too much print_monei and too much regul __PUNCT__

how do thei think thei go to get out of thi mess by spend more monei __PUNCT__ print more monei __PUNCT__ borrow more monei and regul more __PUNCT__ it imposs __PUNCT__

that why we have to revers the cours __PUNCT__

foreign_polici __PUNCT__ we need a foreign polici __PUNCT__ not so strang __PUNCT__ but on that the founder gave us __PUNCT__ on the constitut design __PUNCT__ on that is design to oper in our self __PUNCT__ interest and for our nation_secur __PUNCT__

that what kind we have __PUNCT__ inaud __PUNCT__ i think __PUNCT__ i think a simpl littl thing to avoid go into these war that never seem to end __PUNCT__ that thei never seem to stop and we never know why we there and what the purpos is __PUNCT__

founder gave us the answer __PUNCT__

don't go to war unless the war is declar __PUNCT__

go to war __PUNCT__ win it and go home __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ so that a good place to start __PUNCT__

bring the troop_home and have them spend their monei here __PUNCT__ not oversea __PUNCT__

entitl_system __PUNCT__ it doesn't work __PUNCT__

it all well intend __PUNCT__ oh __PUNCT__ ye __PUNCT__ everybodi is go to get a hous __PUNCT__ and everybodi go to get free health_care __PUNCT__ everybodi go to get a free_educ __PUNCT__

and look at what we have __PUNCT__

all it doe is when you pump more monei into ani area __PUNCT__ you get higher_price __PUNCT__

so the more the govern pump monei into educ or medicin __PUNCT__ the cost go up __PUNCT__ but you don't get higher qualiti or better distribut __PUNCT__

unfortun __PUNCT__ our countri ha been veri lackadais __PUNCT__ and thi is what we reviv __PUNCT__ and that is we lackadais about our understand and our trust in freedom __PUNCT__

thi is what we need __PUNCT__

we need to restor the __PUNCT__ inaud __PUNCT__ that if we want a free and prosper societi __PUNCT__ we have to understand the necess of assum respons for ourselv __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ of cours __PUNCT__ the on other area that bother me significantli is when we accept the big role __PUNCT__ the role of big_govern in econom or in oversea __PUNCT__ inevit it undermin our person_liberti and it is __PUNCT__ and that is be attack now __PUNCT__ alwai with well __PUNCT__ you know __PUNCT__ good_intent __PUNCT__ but in the last __NUM__ or __NUM___year __PUNCT__ we have embark in a __PUNCT__ on a road that is undermin our liberti __PUNCT__

when you think of the harm done and the threat to our privaci with the patriot_act __PUNCT__ that ha liter cancel out the fourth_amend __PUNCT__

we need to revers that and get rid of the patriot_act __PUNCT__ is what i think we should do __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ on place where __PUNCT__ when the peopl spoke out __PUNCT__ we achiev a lot __PUNCT__ and there is a few peopl in thi room i quit sure ar comput savvi and internet savvi __PUNCT__

and when thei threaten with sopa __PUNCT__ onlin gambl __PUNCT__ you know __PUNCT__ an act which wa to take over the internet __PUNCT__ guess what __PUNCT__ you all spoke out and at least temporarili it ha been remov from the docket in washington in both the hous and the senat __PUNCT__

so that is an achiev __PUNCT__

when the peopl_speak out __PUNCT__ can you get their attent in washington __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ but we also need to continu to speak out against what that paragraph thei put in the nation_defens author act __PUNCT__ that provis that now allow our presid to us our militari to arrest american_citizen with no charg and no attornei __PUNCT__

now i got a littl bit of critic from the media and i realli worri a lot about that __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ laughter __PUNCT__ but i took a dai thi week and went back up to washington __PUNCT__

i want to make sure that i wa on record to vote against increas the nation_debt by __MONEY___trillion __PUNCT__

but also while there __PUNCT__ i drop a piec of legisl in __PUNCT__ i think __PUNCT__ is veri signific and i hope we gain the momentum becaus so mani peopl in the campaign ha been awar of thi __PUNCT__ although it not notic much in the mainstream_media __PUNCT__ and that is i introduc a bill to repeal that provis and remov that power from our presid __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ our caus is the right caus __PUNCT__ becaus it the caus that made america_great __PUNCT__

freedom is the answer to so mani of our problem __PUNCT__

if you think about divers in a countri as our countri is __PUNCT__ freedom bring_peopl togeth __PUNCT__ becaus what we do is we releas the creativ energi of each individu __PUNCT__ to pursu their live as thei choos __PUNCT__ their lifestyl __PUNCT__ their religi valu __PUNCT__ their person valu will be determin by that individu as long as thei don't interfer with other __PUNCT__

thi bring peopl togeth __PUNCT__

econom it should be the same issu __PUNCT__ social_issu and econom_issu __PUNCT__

you should have not onli a right to your life and your own __PUNCT__ your own practic but you should have a right to spend your monei as you choos __PUNCT__

thi is what we have to do __PUNCT__

__PUNCT__ applaus __PUNCT__ and we did have the best experi ever __PUNCT__

we were the richest countri ever __PUNCT__

we had the largest middl_class ever __PUNCT__ and now it is chang __PUNCT__

and it been systemat chang over quit a few decad __PUNCT__

so we have to revers that becaus right now the middl class is shrink __PUNCT__ the countri is poorer and the prosper we have is basic base on debt __PUNCT__

we ow so much monei to oversea __PUNCT__

we have now __PUNCT__ i mean __PUNCT__ iron and unfortun __PUNCT__ the chines have becom our banker __PUNCT__
