It's an economic crisis he largely predicted -- so what's former presidential candidate / Rep. Ron Paul up to these days? He's thinking about the long-term. His campaign for Liberty will start training activists at eight regional summits this year while it continues to urge followers to work against the stimulus and bailout measures in Congress.
More than 500 activists are expected to attend the first summit in St. Louis from March 25 to 27. The second summit is scheduled for April in Jacksonville and a third tentatively set for Seattle. Campaign for Liberty's Senior Vice President Jesse Benton said five more summits will be held if the first three are successful.
Paul will attend the St. Louis summit, as well as Andrew Napolitano, a Fox News legal analyst and former New Jersey Supreme Court justice, and Tom Woods, best-selling author of the "Politically Incorrect Guide to American History."
Benton said the summits will educate activists on the principles of the Constitution and train them in how to influence politics, from organizing, educating, lobbying and running for office. Already activists are getting involved in running for Republican Party leadership races in different states, Benton said.

Someone needs to get a hold of future generations for conservatism, and I’m glad Ron Paul is thinking that far ahead.
Maybe some of our children will escape the clutches of the liberal stranglehold on “education”.
Ron Paul ping
Bernanke and his ilk (Fwank, et al) are trying very hard to ignore Paul, but thank God it is no working.
Smoking crack and cavorting with hookers would be my first guess.
Still playing apologist for Osama bin Laden?
***Benton said the summits will educate activists on the principles of the Constitution...***
Woah, the Constitution... what’s that?
The Constitution is what we should have learned about in school. Instead they taught us how Hoover was laissez faire and FDR saved the economy.
Where in the hell do I sign up?

I got the following email from Campaign for Liberty:
From the desk of John F. Tate
President, Campaign for Liberty
Please read the message below from our sister organization, Young Americans for Liberty. They are taking the fight to the stronghold of big government ideology: schools and colleges ... and America’s youth are excited by the Ron Paul message.
Sincerely,
John Tate
“Will Ron Paul run for president in 2012?”
In the premier issue of Young American Revolution, a national youth magazine published by Young Americans for Liberty - the Dr. Paul-endorsed youth organization and continuation of Students for Ron Paul - we ask Ron Paul that very question.
You can find the answer and receive your own copy of Young American Revolution by supporting YAL with a $50 or more contribution today.
While I don’t mind if you contribute just to receive an advance copy of the interview, I really hope you contribute because you believe in bringing Dr. Paul’s message of liberty and activism to the young, idealistic students at America’s schools.
Your support will help distribute more than 15,000 copies of Young American Revolution on college campuses all across the country and ensure the education of liberty-minded young people.
For your generosity, we will mail you a free copy of the 44 page advance issue when it publishes early next month.
As you consider your contribution, here’s a sneak peak of the stunning cover art inserted below. I hope you quickly realize this is a professional endeavor and worthy of your support.
In this first ever issue of Young American Revolution, we have an exclusive four-page interview with Congressman Paul. We ask him some very uncommon questions that few have asked. Most importantly, he confirms he is writing a new book on the Federal Reserve to publish in a few months.
In reply to our question, Congressman Paul says, “It is true, and if the publishers accept the title - which they probably will if I insist on it - I came up with a title that someone gave me at one of our rallies: End the Fed.”
Can you believe it?! Ron Paul is writing a new book exclusively on the Federal Reserve, and we are breaking the news to you today!
If The Revolution: A Manifesto was any indication, Congressman Paul is about to blow the top off the Federal Reserve System and expose the truth to the American people.
But you can only read the exclusive interview, by supporting Young Americans for Liberty with a $50 or more contribution today.
Also, we are offering a limited edition [1 of 25] black and white print of the original cover art. The hand-drawn sketch illustrates the lead article “The Battle for Americas Youth” between Ron Paul and Barack Obama. Is this the presidential race in 2012?
For a $500 or more donation, we will send you a high quality print of this sketch signed and numbered by the artist.
As always, thank you for your support and generosity. You are the lifeblood of the Revolution, and the Revolution is spreading like wildfire on college campuses. Already 116 YAL chapters are active or forming on campuses across the country. Thousands of young people are on fire for our message.
Please help by contributing what you can to this effort today. Young American Revolution is the lone voice for liberty amongst our country’s youth, and we want to put as many copies into the hands of young people as we can afford.
You can make sure this happens by donating $50 or more today. Donate securely online at http://www.yaliberty.org/donate or mail a check to PO Box 2751, Arlington, VA 22202.
For liberty,
Jeff Frazee
Executive Director, YAL
P.S. – This week, Young Americans for Liberty also launched a web project to get our good friend and YAL member, Tom Woods, on TV. Please visit www.GetTomonTV.com to learn more and participate.
That you, “robert david”?
Is that your lame attempt at accusing me of being another poster?
Nope, the post and the tag line are a perfect match.
Welcome back to FR, robert david.
What makes you think that?
Save it. I’m not interested in your accusations, Ronulan.
I just looked over you posts since you re-joined January 19, 2009.
Then I looked over robert david’s posts up until he was banned around the end of November last year.
You’re “robert david”. And you’re busted.
When has he done anything like that?
I've saved a place in line for you. :)
