More 2012 buzz over Ron Paul

The man's got a following, that's for sure.

Tuesday it was announced that Texas Republican Ron Paul, who wowed the Libertarian crowd during the 2008 election with his call for limited government, is set to deliver an address at the University of South Carolina on Nov. 9 about the "future of individual liberty and the importance of the U.S. Constitution."

As if that were not enough, the following week he's scheduled to speak in Iowa, that pivotal early caucus state, with stops in Ames and Des Moines.

Speculation is rife that South Carolina, which holds one of the early primaries in the presidential calendar, could be the launching pad for a new Ron Paul bid. As CNN's Political Ticker put it, "Will Ron Paul give it another go in 2012?"

If so, the 74-year-old congressman and doctor isn't saying. Lately he's been busy waging war on the federal government's response to the H1N1 virus, decrying the vaccination program as an attempt by the federal government to corral more power.

Patriot Expo of South Carolina announces Myrtle Beach Freedom Weekend

Greetings!

We are pleased to bring you the Myrtle Beach Freedom Weekend, November 14th & 15th, 2009 at the Ocean Dunes Resort & Villas in Myrtle Beach, SC

The Myrtle Beach Freedom Weekend (MBFW) evolves from last June's original Patriot Expo in Columbia, SC.

The MBFW will host the educational 'Making of America' seminar, based on our Founders' original success formula for freedom -- the 28 principles they adhered to in in forming our system of government... along with provisions on how we can rekindle and preserve our country. This seminar is being conducted by the National Center for Constitutional Studies.

While plans are still in development for this event, we are pleased to announce...
G. Edward Griffin, author of many books, including 'The Creature From Jekyll Island,' as Saturday evening's Keynote Speaker! Other noted speaker arrangements are being added to the weekend's roster.

If you attended the Patriot Expo's inaugural event in Columbia back in June, you know what an amazing turnout there was for an event created by a handful of volunteers in only four weeks. Speakers included Peter Koenig, former economist with the World Bank, Thomas Moore, Director of the Southern Institute for Sustainable Living, and Harry McKay, who delivered a moving rendition of Patrick Henry's speech.

I am writing to ask that you forward this announcement to your 'patriot' list, Meetup group, discussion group, etc., visit the MBFW site at http://PatriotExpo.com and add your email address in one of the 'Email Updates' boxes there, so that we can properly send you updates as they happen, if you have an interest in supporting this, or this type of event.

The work being done on the MBFW is totally volunteer. It is taking a lot of time while we work full-time and try to maintain some degree of attachment to our families. But we know what is at stake, and to us it is worth the time and effort. I know many of you feel this way because of what you are already doing. However, we still need donors and volunteers to help with all aspects of this event (and, hopefully, future events), as well as a few more excellent speakers.

Any money collected from donations and registrations will go SOLELY to cover costs and, hopefully, to help fund future events. (Even some of the speakers have offered to travel thousands of miles and stay the weekend at their own expense!)

We kindly ask that you visit the site, sign up for updates and forward this message on, so that we can build a proper 'opt-in' list. The heat is on, the time is short and there is a LOT to do -- both for this event and for our country.

Thank you,
Tom Cornwell
Co-Organizer, Myrtle Beach Freedom Weekend
