Ron Paul and Barney Frank appeared on Larry King last night to discuss health care and financial reform.
In the first segment they discuss health care:
In the second segment, Ben Stein and Tanya Acker join Paul and Frank to discuss health care and Bernanke being named Time Magazine’s “Person of the Year”:
Finally, in the third segment, they discuss the public argument between Sarah Palin and Arnold Schwarzenegger, who they would have selected as person of the year, and Obama’s letter to Kim Jong Il of North Korea:
Rather than comment on the discussion within the videos I’d like to comment on how positive it is that Ron Paul seems to now be a “regular” on Larry King and several other main stream media outlets. It’s nice to have his atypical message being heard by so many people. The ability to wake the drooling masses begins by having a mechanism to reach them. Like it or not, the main stream media is that mechanism.

Ben Bernanke may have pumped in trillions of dollars worth of liquidity, but one , except Ron, seems to care about how it effects the value of the dollar. People should read his book.."End The Fed" and understand how the Fed was created,money and business cycles. Ben Stein has a keen awareness and clarity of thought much like Ron. Tanya is out of her league and Barney Frank…well I do agree with him when it comes to North Korea.

Agreed. Too many people subscribe to the pessimistic view that everything is hopeless rather than embracing the perpetual struggle for liberty. You don't change hearts or minds with fear or rhetoric. Whatever the vehicle, what's important is spreading the message and continuing the fight.

Can anyone tell me if anyone on that panel (except Ron Paul) actually realizes that the Federal Reserve does indeed create money? I'm just not sure they actually realize it… They act like they know that Bernanke dumped trillions of dollars into the economy, but it seems to me that they think the Federal Reserve had that money stashed away somewhere… Do they really know where it came from?
