What Ron Paul means by the ‘status quo’

I hope people understand what Ron Paul is talking about when he says he wants to “defeat the status quo.” If polls are correct, I fear they do not. The simplist definition of status quo is “same old, same old” or “the powers that be.”

It is much more than that, it is an oligarchy, or rule by a few, that controls both the Republican and Democratic parties at the top. This invisible government, the Council on Foreign Relations, came in to being in 1922, created by disappointed liberals after a patriotic sense would not ratify our entry into the League of Nations. This was an early attempt to involve the United States in world government and has since been accomplished by the United Nations.

The dream of the CFR was to influence America in such a way as to make world government under socialism a reality. By 1939, they had established themselves in our state department and their influence expanded so that in most of the last 70 years, their members have held key cabinet positions.

Some presidential candidates are members of the CFR and those who aren't would probably succumb to the Council's directives. Ron Paul said he would not appoint a single member of the CFR to his cabinet, if elected.

He is the one candidate that you can trust to stand by his word.
