In just one week, Dr. Paul will deliver a momentous speech to 10,000 plus at the Target Center in Minneapolis, MN. Here is a small excerpt from Ron’s notes on what you can expect.

We’re here today to send a message, not just to the Republican Party, not just to the politicians in power, but to the whole country and possibly the whole world.

The power brokers are convinced that they can maintain control with no serious challenge. They have it wrong!

We will challenge them on all fronts - in every state and at all levels of government. Individual liberty must be our goal. Peace and prosperity will follow.

Change for the sake of change but not doing the right thing is pure folly. Our Revolution must prevail. And it will!

One word: WOW!

Tune in to see Dr. Paul’s commentary on the DNC. AM Host John Roberts is one of the classiest in the business.

Update: The hit time looks like it will be 7:40 am ET - hope ya’ll can tune in!

Lew Rockwell was Dr. Paul’s congressional chief of staff from 1978-1982, when he left to found the Ludwig von Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama. According to its website, the mission of the Mises Institute is “to restore a high place for theory in economics and the social sciences, encourage a revival of critical historical research, and draw attention to neglected traditions in Western philosophy.”

Since its founding, the Institute “has grown into the leading scholarly center for research and teaching in the Austrian School of economics, as well as an important research center for classical liberalism and libertarianism.”

As probably almost all of you know, Lew is also the editor of the popular lewrockwell.com. He is also the author of Speaking of Liberty and the forthcoming Tu Ne Cede Malis.

In July 2008, Rockwell began his daily podcast, The Lew Rockwell Show, where he offers commentary and interviews economic and historical experts.
