Liberty, as the Founders intended, is a cornerstone of America alongside responsibility, morality, and justice. If any of these cornerstones fails, the others begin to deteriorate. Soon, the entire foundation upon which America was built, are shaken and begin to crumble. If you can honestly look around you today and say that all four cornerstones are solidly in tact, then there is no need for you to be reading blogs like Naked Liberty! If, however, you see the crumbling of our society and would like to see it restored rather than fall, look into these things for yourself with an open mind. You will soon find your own 'truth glasses' and they will lead you to the path where you can actually make a difference.
My corrected vision, as discussed in my last post, has allowed me to see that the people entrusted with upholding the Constitution have simply been ignoring it and twisting it into something the Founders would not even recognize. As Ron Paul has said, “The Founders would be ashamed of us for what we’ve been putting up with!” To fix the mess we’ve created, we must return to the rule of law.
The Constitution is a contract between we, the people, and our government, and it is enforceable like any other contract under the rule of law! The government cannot just ignore or edit parts it doesn’t like! There is a mechanism already provided for changing it because the Founders knew it would not be a perfect document for all times. Why don’t they just use the amendment process and put the power in the hands of the people – where it belongs – if they want to go around creating money out of thin air, stripping us of individual liberties in the name of security, entangling us with foreign alliances that almost always come back to haunt us, sending our troops into battle without a declaration of war by Congress and under the flag of international organizations, whittling away our sovereignty, etc.? WE were given this power, not THEM.

Dr. Paul Cured my Blindness
Dr. Paul cured my blindness a short four weeks ago!
If you wear corrective lenses, do you remember how you felt the first time you put on glasses or contacts and could suddenly see things you never even knew you were missing? I remember getting dizzy and even somewhat nauseous because of my new-found ability to see individual leaves on trees and individual pebbles in pavement.
As early voting was about to begin here in Texas, I was still struggling with a decision between McCain and Huckabee. You see, my vision had not yet been corrected, and I was only seeing what the media and the GOP insiders wanted me to see. I had done research on all of the candidates over the last six months or so, but never even bothered to look up Ron Paul because I was convinced he was a fringe candidate who more closely resembled the liberal democrats.
Out of sheer desperation at the thought of having to choose McCain or Huckabee, I finally googled the other remaining candidates. I visited Hillary's website and Obama's, too, looking for any redeeming qualities that would make me feel good about voting for them. As expected, though, they are both WAY too liberal - to the point of being outright Socialists. Then I googled Ron Paul. I'd been fairly observant when the candidates dropped out one by one, and I didn't remember him quitting yet. So I thought, what the heck!
Within the span of a couple of hours spent watching various youtube videos, I began to get that dizzy feeling as my vision began to get clearer. The nausea began to sweep over me as I realized more and more how I’d been duped by those who call themselves unbiased journalists as well as other conservative voices, which I had previously thought were correct in their analyses of all things political.
More on Ron Paul later, but Naked Liberty is about much more than one man. He just happens to be the one who got me (and countless others) to finally be able to really think outside the box. When we are able to make that paradigm shift and start looking at EVERYTHING from a new point of view, many say that we have been ‘awakened’, and I use that term frequently now.
It’s as if I stumbled upon a pair of ‘truth glasses’ that have allowed me to see past the media’s lies, omissions, and not-so-subtle innuendos. These glasses are a permanent correction of my vision, which spurs me to seek information in a relentless pursuit of the truth about our country, our government, our monetary system, our history, our people, and our liberty.

Welcome to Naked Liberty!
As a writer with a background in marketing and public relations, I've often thought about starting my own blog. I knew that it must be focused on a specific topic about which I cared enough to post frequently on a long-term basis. I have toyed with the idea for more than a year now, trying to nail down a subject that could continually get my creative juices flowing. Naturally, I looked to my interests and experience to find an area I'd really like to talk about and share with others. Nothing jumped out at me as the one single topic I was dying to write about AND that I thought anyone else would care to read.
Well, here I am with a blog, so something must have finally clicked, right? Right! I finally zeroed in on a subject about which I am deeply passionate and that I believe will resonate with readers.
My posts here at Naked Liberty will seek to share the message of individual liberty and exploring what it truly means to be free. I will focus on bringing to light the blatant lies by the media, the trampling of the Constitution by the US government, and thoughts on how we, the people, can restore America to Her status as a shining beacon deserving of the world's respect and admiration. My only problem now is figuring out where to begin!
Less than 30 days ago, I was awakened from my mainstream media-induced sleep and have hardly stopped searching for the truth ever since. I hope my posts will convey what I've learned, and I will include links to multiple source documents wherever possible so that my readers do not have to rely solely on my word.
I am not a crazed anarchist or conspiracy theorist. I have not lost my mind. I, like millions of others, have simply become aware that I was led astray by ALL of the news outlets and our government. I now feel it is my obligation to my fellow Americans and for the sake of future generations to help spread the message of liberty, which we have forgotten somewhere along the way.
Each individual will have to find their own way to the truth, and only if they're looking for it. I can only try to plant seeds of doubt in the current state of affairs while simultaneously planting seeds of hope that there IS a better way. If enough seeds are planted, events will occur that will reinforce what has been said and eventually, everyone will WAKE UP! All who have been 'awakened' have a different story to tell about that moment when the light bulb came on - or some say that it was a culmination of events over a period of years rather than a single trigger that sparked a sudden realization.
Here at Naked Liberty, I'll try to strip away the fluff and expose the truth about freedom! In my next post, I'll relate the story of how I was 'awakened'.
