In 1997, then-Congressman Ron Paul gave a passionate House speech that was aired on C-SPAN.
He spoke about the reasons Americans fear the government and the “police state mentality that prompted Ruby Ridge, Waco and many other episodes of an errant Federal Government”
Dr. Paul certainly seems to be ahead of his time, and has a talent for predicting the future.
