    this is just what Columbia needed after the way Lindsey Graham has tried to bring Ron Paul down by saying that he wasn't going to run the Republican party. In fact Ron Paul stated that there were two parties and each needed to be doing what it takes to make our current situation right. He was a true leader and inspirational speaker

    • “ It was wonderful to have Congressman Ron Paul here again. Matt Kneece and his group did a great job organizing this event. Thanks to Matt and to everyone who attended. ”
    • “ This will long be remembered as one of the greatest experiences of my life. Everything was perfect. Ron Paul's superb lecture would have been enough by itself. In addition, the audience was large and enthusiastic.The organizers did everything right. Matt Kneece will clearly our next Ron Paul. ”
    • “ Ron Paul's statement about seeking the truth is wonderful. Ron doesn't claim to know everything or take credit for anything except looking out for the middle class and poor people. He is a gentleman caring for anyone as he would his own family. He told that he once worked as a doctor at a church hospital for 3.00 an hour. He states what he has seen in his life, which is the downfall of the dollar and the corruptness of our government as it is continually getting worse by printing more money out of thin air. I couldn't disagree with him when he said that we can't steal from our neighbors so how is it that our government can do it?He raises the question in my mind about what can we as citizens do to protect ourselves against such a corrupt government run along side of an institution called the CIA. I personally would like to see Ron Paul succeed at running for president. ”
