Talk about "Burning Your Bridges"! The Republican party has burnt the house down in order to keep everything the same...and that will be their down fall. The Good Guys tried to play in their system but the Republican establishment went all out to stop the Ron Paul revolution by changing rules, voting fraud, procedural misconduct and even threatening violence against the Ron Paul faithful.
The rumors of all this behavior first came out of the state conventions but the world saw it on display at the RNC Convention. It was a disgusting display and now they are talking about "healing the party"....NICE TRY!
I have attached below some videos and and articles that people have sent me over the past few days and it is clear to me that the Good Guys are going to retaliate. Ron Paul is scheduled to be on the Jay Leno show Tuesday night and the rumors are that he will announce a 3rd party run. I don't have any inside info on what he'll say but I do know one thing...the financial markets could crash at any moment. Silver has clearly shown that "it is ready" to destroy the Bad Guys. And we are down to a little over two months until election day.
Can Ron Paul win a 3rd party bid? No. Can Ron Paul win running under a new party called "The Tea Party" with the endorsement of Sarah Palin and all her followers? Maybe. Can Ron Paul win if the Global Monetary system implodes in the next two months? YES!
The Republican Establishment has sealed it's own fate if Ron runs against Romney and Obama. Most, if not all, the Republican "base" has no allegiance to the Party Leaders. They have an allegiance to the Republican principles. The republican party has spent the last 30 years courting and bringing the Christian community into their party and it worked. But now they've nominated a Mormon. These people have a strong allegiance to their faith and the Mormon religion is not mainstream enough for them to embrace.
Palin's mention of a potential 3rd party run was a grenade thrown on the floor at the opening of the RNC convention. It may prove to be prophetic and signal the END of the old Republican guard and the beginning of a NEW "AMERICAN PARTY".
Palin is definitely on the outs with the Bad Guys as they are kicking her out of FOX news. This news hit directly after her third party suggestion.

I will have much more on the developments as they happen but now is the time for EVERYTHING to hit hard.
Be ready for it.

Bix Weir Friday Road Trip - 8/31/12 Part I
Swap Your Silver...For Silver!
Why US Minted Silver Coins are So Much Better Than Silver Bars or Rounds
Over the years my "investment of choice" when it comes to precious metals have changed. In the early 2000's I was all about gold coins and mining stocks. If you've followed me long enough you know why I advised everyone to get out of mining stocks about 5 years ago. Basically - they are too valuable and will be nationalized after the crash. Gold coins on the other hand were a "no brainer" so that's what I bought. I would buy the cheapest ones I could find per oz and I figured that was the best way to invest. Save a buck or two per oz and I could end up with more metal in the end. Then I found out that some gold coins were harder to sell than others and sometimes saving on the premium I'd have to pay for the more popular coins might hurt me when I go to sell. So then I got into Krugerrands as at the time they were the most recognizable with the lowest premium.
Then in the mid 2000's, after years of research, I figured out the silver story and it was so compelling that I swapped all my gold for silver. I also figured out that there is MASSIVELY more gold in the world than what was being told to the people.

When I switched to silver I again went after the most metal I could get without caring about the shape, size or quality of what I was buying. It was all about getting the most ounces for my buck. I bought a lot of 100 oz bars from random mints as they were the cheapest. Although I bought some pre-1965 coins it was more just to have some than any other reasoning.
In the last year I have changed once again. Now I'm all about silver coins minted by the US Mint. Why? A few reasons at first but now it is clear that it was a good choice. My original reason was that the counterfeiting laws of legal tender in the US are much stronger than the fraud laws. Faking a silver bar or coin and selling it in the US as .999 silver is illegal but it falls into the laws against commercial fraud. Doing the same with US Minted Silver Eagles and pre-1965 coins falls under the counterfeiting laws as well as fraud so I thought it was a better buy as there will be less fakes. Now it turns out that the Good Guys are planning to REMOVE any capital gains taxation from gold and silver coins minted by the US Mint!
Seth Lipsky: The Gold Standard Goes Mainstream
http://www.gata.org/node/11703
"In the Senate, Jim DeMint, Mike Lee and Rand Paul are offering the Sound Money Promotion Act, which would remove the tax on the appreciation in the value of gold and silver coins that have been declared legal tender by the federal or a state government. Utah has already made gold and silver coins legal tender in the state."
This is a VERY big deal because there is no doubt in my mind that the US will go after gold and silver investors windfall profits when the metals finally cut loose from the manipulation. Currently gains on physical gold and silver are taxed at 28% but they are not actively pursued by the taxing authorities because there are so few of us who hold real metal. That will change very soon.
So the next time you buy silver and skip over silver Eagles because of the higher premiums just think about how much you will save on your taxes when you sell. Better yet, pre-1965 "junk silver" have very low premiums and are harder to fake so that's your best bet.
Too bad it only took me 15 year to figure that one out!
So I guess what I'm saying now is...SWAP YOUR PHYSICAL SILVER FOR US MINTED SILVER COINS before silver goes through the roof and you will likely make more money.
