[The Occupy Wall Street movement may not know it yet, but Ron Paul is their candidate. You would never guess this is so from the mainstream media's aloof, retrograde reportage of the campaign season. In the essay below, my wife, Marilyn, explains why the TV networks and the New York Times are missing a grassroots groundswell that will be seen as a Political Revolution by the time the 2012 rolls around. If this proves to be so, look for a shot across the bow when disaffected young people switch their affiliation to Republican so that they can get Rep. Paul nominated. RA]
No one questions that “something” is brewing, or rather simmering beneath the surface in America. The discontent, having finally reached the heretofore silently and sublimely disaffected youth who are occupying Wall Street and any other street in any other town you might mention, is a phenomenon that has every journalist and blogger on the planet analyzing their heads off. Is the OWS movement the left’s Tea Party? Will progressive politicians regret throwing in with the legions of urban campers? Do these people have a platform? Who is supporting them? (Well, we actually know that Soros and the unions are doing that, because they’ve pretty much told us)

Soros, the left, and the unions are attempting to hijack the movement. They aren't welcome with open arms. Trumpka, the AFL-CIO head, came down to NYC in a blazer and slacks. Essentially was laughed at by the majority of protesters. His organization is directly tied to chrony capitalism. Will it lead to a ground swell of support? I don't know. I'm interested to see how prolific bank transfer day(Nov 5th) will be. You can tell by the large banks recent moves the past few days that they are worried about a mass exodus. I just hope more people DO get there money out of such institutions. There are many banks who never took tarp, aren't represented by millionare lobbyists, and don't help craft legislation for their benefit. I switched, my checking acct has zero fees, and I have a higher interest rate. Also, the vast majority of community banks, invest in their local communities, as opposed to the large banks who(by the numbers) don't re-circulate capital into local communities. Ron Paul. 2012.
