When I first joined the web community in 1999, surveys showed that 42% of Americans "got their news from alternative sources"- like the web and talk radio.
( OK, I also presume this means wackier sources, as well....)
A few months later that crept up to 47%, and the last time I heard anything about it ( over a year ago ) it had passed 50%.
I have often said we are in an "Info War"- a conflict of ideas- with those who want less freedom for and more control over, the average citizen.
We have lost any number of skirmishes- the ubiquitousness of the term "hate crime" come to mind- but the battle is far from over.
One of the most critical first steps to winning over the public is simply introducing them to conservative or Libertarian concepts, free of the sneering bias of the mainstream media- both the news and entertainment arms of it.
The web, and talk radio, are making incursions into the realm of ideas. It's slow, and the pervasiveness of propaganda from the TV-dominated culture is hard to overcome, but I do see signs that progess is being made.
This is one of the much superior websites that indexes our governments past actions and give solutions to the many illegal actions. I am extremely curious as to your opinion whether or not his solutions will save America.

Please save and make a shortcut to his website, select what areas you feel that you are strongly qualified to critique and then please give your full unrestrained opinions to the members of FR.com. We need to formulate a serious plan of action so we stay at the vote box rather than progress to the ammo box.
Here is a link that Forest has made just for FR.com Hub1

Thank you, B4Ranch
ps. There is an excellent discussion regarding The Grace Report (PPSS) to be found in his website. This has been one of my favorite subjects for years. If you ever get a chance be sure to question your Rep about his/her knowledge of it. You'll be disappointed for sure.
pps. I just got off the phone with Mr. Durland. He is a well informed elderly gentleman (73) who is concerned about the future for his children and grandchildren just as we are.
He can be contacted at Voice: (408) 867-4410; Fax: (408)868-9446; His email address is glen@bayarea.net
I disagree (sort of). I think the history you should be looking at is not German history, but *Roman* history. The US compares much more closely with Rome, IMO, than with Germany (though there are parallels there, too).
I think the US will end up the same way Rome did...with much the same results, only on a larger scale and much more rapidly due to technology, which speeds everything up.

For instance, Hitler (and Stalin) took the children from the parents and put them in government schools. Now government has taken over the colleges that teach teachers and he presses that write the textbooks and brain washes the kids that way. Let the parents put up with the brats out of school. Much smoother this way. Much more effective, too.
You should know better. If the solution was at the ballot box, we wouldn't be in the mess we find ourselves in today.
The solution is to instill abject fear into the politicians, so that they respect the citizens they elected, obey the oath of office, and do the job they were hired to do. As it stands today, they have little fear of small segments of the electorate. They know that the rest of the people pulling the levers on election day are uneducated and can be manipulated.
Dream on.
