Ron Paul for President
You may not have heard, it certainly didn't seem to get much presss, but Congressman Ron Paul from Texas is running for presiden as a Republican in the upcoming 2008 elections. Ron Paul knows that U.S. Gold Reserves have not had an independent audit since the 1950’s. Ron Paul is the one who would ask:

1.) Why do we value our gold at $42.22 per ounce when Euroland and Russia value it a market;
2.) Who’s gold is it; the citizens?, the Treasuries?, or the Federal Reserve’s?
3.) How is it we are using unconstitutional money that is not even redeemable instead of the Constitutional mandate that a dollar is 371.25 grains of fine silver?

Congressman Paul has proven he is the only Federal politician who supports these issues. Congressman Ron Paul’s email is the following: http://www.house.gov/paul/contact.shtml.

I tried to find the "Constitutional mandate that a dollar is 371.25 grains of fine silver" and couldn't find it anywhere. I did a search on "dollar" and "silver", and found no evidence of such a mandate.

Perhaps Congressman Paul is making this up.

One more thing, Dissenter,

Section. 8. of the CFonstitution The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

To borrow Money on the credit of the United States;

To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;

To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, and uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States;

To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;

They just didn't define Money and it took the Actg of 1792 to define it.
