Why Ron Paul supports neighborhoods

Although Ron Paul has not specifically endorsed neighborhood enrichment activities, over and over again I hear him talking about how he believes in the power of the people to make positive changes in their lives when they have freedom to do so. I plan on doing research on what Ron Paul has said that I relates to people working in their own communities to make a difference. I do know that over and over again he says that we should not rely on the government to take care of us from cradle to grave. That is not what our founding fathers wanted. I believe they were wise in their concern. When the government takes over many of the duties that families and communities used to fulfill, not only are they more inefficient, but they also require people receiving the handouts to give up a lot of freedom.

I believe that if Ron Paul supporters would serve in their own neighborhoods in ways that also help them to gain support for Ron Paul, two things will happen. One, a grassroots effort will create the changes that Ron Paul supporters want to happen. Two, people will be drawn to Ron Paul because they will see that Ron Paul supporters aren't depending on their candidate of choice to take care of them--but they are already taking care of themselves. Three, Ron Paul supporters tend to feel connected because of this common cause--and they can work together even more effectively on the campaign, as well as helping each other in cooperating on various levels.

Can you imagine what might happen if Ron Paul supporters gathered every week at a Community Gathering, a cross between a family-friendly festival, a town meeting, a family reunion, think tank, a learning center and a strategic planning session. You can learn more about how this works and why I think it will be a way to enhance the people power generated now by the Ron Paul revolution, and how it can continue even after the election: Community Gatherings: helping neighborhoods become free, thriving, self-reliant communities.

I want to work full time on promoting community gatherings and support Ron Paul's campaign. I am hoping that there will be a Community Gathering in every neighborhood. Any donations you give will help me to pay for my expenses and also keep me from having to work at jobs that are unrelated to my passion. Thanks for reading this!
