Contribute to fighting the Fed

From Campaign For Liberty:

With years of intense debate at an end, congratulations, smiles, and enthusiastic applause filled the room.

As reporters pictured their headlines, they reviewed the collection of notable cabinet members, congressional leaders, and presidential family gathered for the signing ceremony.

The President, less than a year into his first term and excited about his momentum, used four gold pens to sign the bill.

According to The New York Times, he concluded his post-signing remarks by noting:

"I cannot say with what deep emotions of gratitude that I feel that I have had a part in completing a work which I think will be of lasting benefit to the business of the country."

The Federal Reserve was born.

Christmas was two days away that December night in 1913.

But in fewer than twenty years, many would find causes for celebration lacking, as a devastating depression strangled the country.

Almost one hundred years later, a crowd would again gather in the White House to watch another President speak about the Federal Reserve.

In what he called "one of the most important economic decisions that I'll ever make as President ... because the chair of the Fed is one of the most important policymakers in the world," President Obama nominated current Fed Vice Chair Janet Yellen to succeed Ben Bernanke in the Fed's top spot.

If the President believes the Fed chair is one of the world's most important positions, why do he, his party's Senate Majority Leader, and others in places of influence oppose keeping it accountable to the American people?

Maybe it's because they know exactly how much President Wilson's "work" makes the Big Government they love possible.

Will you help me fight back?

Nearly one hundred years after the Fed was created to be "of lasting benefit," our nation is over $17 trillion in debt.

You and I have been put on the hook for trillions of dollars more off the books - without a vote or often even the knowledge of Congress - because the Fed just "creates" what it needs to cut deals.

The Fed has wrecked our dollar, devalued our savings, and recently fueled another massive economic crisis.

If you had gone to the store in 1913 after leaving the White House ceremony, what you could have bought for $1 then would now cost you over $23.

It's time to put a stop to the out-of-control Fed.

That's why your generous support during Campaign for Liberty's Emergency Audit the Fed Money Bomb is so important.

Audit the Fed

Our critics have been quick to pronounce doom for our movement, and they've been wrong every time.

They think we've had our moment, and we can't expect to get any further or grow our ranks any larger.

I know they're wrong.

Our time is now.

With my son, Senator Rand Paul, placing a "hold" on Janet Yellen's confirmation, Audit the Fed has once again been catapulted into the spotlight.

And it's coming at just the right time, with the country's attention gripped by fierce debates over spending and debt.

Even if the light is shining brighter than ever before, it will not do any good if you and I don't capitalize on this opportunity to expose the root cause of our economic problems.

I hope you saw the new Rasmussen poll a couple weeks ago that showed nearly 75% of the American people believe the Fed should be audited.

That's an incredible number.

But I think it could be a lot higher.

You and I have seen how quickly people become outraged once they learn how the Fed operates and what it has done.

With your help, Campaign for Liberty can spread the word to millions more Americans about the secretive Federal Reserve.

Once Campaign for Liberty alerts them to the Fed's disastrous ways, I'm confident we'll greatly expand our support in this fight.

But thanks to the Fed's eroding dollar, funds just don't go as far as they used to.

So the bar for this project has been set high at $250,000 to enable Campaign for Liberty to reach as many people about the Fed as possible through as many avenues as possible, including mail, phones, email, ads, and more.

Will you commit to give $10 or $5 today?

Audit the Fed

Maybe you can even afford as much as $15.

With the Fed's 100th anniversary just around the corner, its allies have made their choice.

Their course will guarantee the further destruction of the American economy.

Will you choose to help C4L stand up to them?

We owe it to ourselves and future generations to guarantee a country where savings actually increase in value over time.

Where dreams aren't scrapped because Americans can barely afford to get by.

But what kind of country waits around the corner for us and our family, or what kind will exist in another 100 years, depends on what we decide to do about debt, spending, and the Fed right now.

Please make your most generous contribution today to Campaign for Liberty's Emergency Audit the Fed Money Bomb.

Unlike President Wilson, let's advance a cause that will be of real and lasting benefit to our nation.

For Liberty,

Ron Paul
Chairman

P.S. The Fed's 100 anniversary is just around the corner.

With the Fed's history of wrecking our dollar, fueling economic crises, and devaluing our savings - and with the spotlight on Audit the Fed shining brighter than ever before - I'm confident Campaign for Liberty can greatly advance our cause if it can alert more Americans to the out-of-control Fed.

But thanks to the Fed's eroding dollar, funds just don't go as far as they used to.

Will you commit to give $10 or $5 today toward Campaign for Liberty's Emergency Audit the Fed Money Bomb?

Maybe you can even afford $15.

Your support today is vital to helping C4L reach millions more Americans and stand up to our nation's secretive central bank before it further devastates our country.
