Summary
Dr. Ron Paul discusses what’s kept him in the fight for liberty so long. He is frightened by the rise of tyranny, but at the same time is motivated to do something about it. Technology allows us to be modern-day pamphleteers and spread the message far and wide, truth is our greatest weapon. The American Empire is bankrupt and disintegrating and that’s good! Globalism will fail and NATO will break up, just like the Soviet Union disappeared overnight. Personal liberty and limited government are of paramount importance.

About Ron Paul
Ron Paul, an eleven-term congressman from Texas, is the leading advocate of freedom in our nation’s capital. He has devoted his political career to the defense of individual liberty, sound money, and a non-interventionist foreign policy. Judge Andrew Napolitano calls him “the Thomas Jefferson of our day.” After serving as a flight surgeon in the U.S. Air Force in the 1960s, Dr. Paul moved to Texas to begin a civilian medical practice, delivering over four thousand babies in his career as an obstetrician. He served in Congress from 1976 to 1984, and again from 1996 to the present. He and Carol Paul, his wife of fifty-one years, have five children, eighteen grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. Ron Paul, the New York Post once wrote, is a politician who “cannot be bought by special interests.” “There are few people in public life who, through thick and thin, rain or shine, stick to their principles,” added a congressional colleague. “Ron Paul is one of those few.”

| 0:00.0 | Geopolitics and Empire is joined by a man who absolutely needs no introduction. Dr. Ron Paul. It's great to have you on the podcast, Dr. Paul. |
| 0:09.4 | Great. Nice to be with you. And, you know, I've got, I got some of your books here, which I highly recommend. I got this over a decade ago. And so it's great to be able to talk to you. And I attended for the very first time, |
| 0:21.6 | the Ron Paul Institute conference this year. Actually, both of them. I got the flyers here. I was a sponsor, |
| 0:26.5 | and so really wonderful events. And I encourage people to attend the events next year. And what |
| 0:33.9 | absolutely amazes me, Dr. Paul, is, you know, I'm in my 30s. And sometimes I get tired and dejected when it comes to fighting tyranny and fighting for liberty. |
| 0:42.8 | But then I look at you, you know, at nearing the age of 90, you're still doing it day in, day out. |
| 0:49.2 | And then I say to myself, I got to keep on trucking. |
| 0:51.4 | What keeps you driven and your fire and flame going is so strong? You know, I love to keep on trucking. What keeps you driven and your fire and flame going so strong? |
| 0:56.1 | You know, I love to hear stories like that because interestingly enough, you've heard me talk, |
| 1:02.8 | and I don't mince words. I don't say everything is wonderful. I usually lay it out on the table |
| 1:09.1 | and say things are a mess and it's going to get worse. |
| 1:12.7 | Unless we do something. |
| 1:14.3 | But then I try to describe that there is an alternative and things that can be done. |
| 1:19.2 | We shouldn't be worried about it. |
| 1:20.7 | It's just a matter of ideas. |
| 1:22.6 | And I was always impressed when I talked to the college students, you know, during the national campaign, |
| 1:28.0 | because many of them would come up and say something like you said. They said, you know, |
| 1:32.3 | you're so optimistic. I said, well, I just, you know, told you of all the problems. Yeah, they said, |
| 1:39.7 | but you finish with saying it doesn't have to be that way. So I'm delighted with that, and I like to |
| 1:46.0 | emphasize that, because I really believe it, even though none of us know the future and exactly |
| 1:53.1 | how to be it. But I believe it's true. I think things could get much better in a year if we did |
| 2:00.0 | the right things, but it's not likely |
