Hello everyone

Hey guys,

For those of you who don't know, I'm Paul. I'm a very conservative person, and I'm very proud of my country and the principles it stands for.

I felt compelled to create this blog because I see the need to inform my friends, those around me and whoever might be interested about important information that they might not know about. For example, I believe that the threat of Islamic terrorism and the ideals of Islam are poorly understood by most people, and I think that I can help people better understand these threats by writing in this blog and pointing them to certain people, books, websites, and events that deal with terrorism.

I have no experience in journalism, blogging, politics, or anything of that nature, but I feel like I should at least try to do something to help spread the information that can't easily be found. I start college next Monday, so I probably won't have a lot of time to spend on this, but I will do my best to relay the information that I feel every American should know. You might be wondering how I can claim to have an inside scoop on things...the truth is that I don't. The problem is that the mainstream media is extremely misleading and leaves out a lot of things that deserve coverage. Any information or links that I will post will be things that I have found by reading books, searching the web, listening to talk radio, etc. I know I'm not good at this but I'm going to do my best to inform you about what you need to know because our country is in dire need of informed citizens who can make a difference and have their voices heard. The upcoming election is a great chance to have your voice heard, but there are other things that you can do as well...these will be dicsussed later.

I hope you come back to read my blog...if not, at least do some research of your own. Inform yourself about what is happening in your country and in the world! Believe it or not, there are many many things going on that could potentially affect you...you need to know about them. Those of us who live in the free world and who have the right to participate in government must take hold of that and do what we can not only for ourselves and our own country, but around the world as well. We are living in perilous times, and we must be aware of what's going on. I'm so wound up that I wish I could delve into some of the topics right now, but those are for later blogs. Thanks for your time, I hope to talk to you soon.

I couldn't agree more with you Paul. I think it is so important for American's to know what is REALLY going on. Most people don't even know or understand that the Media just releases what they want. It is often one-sided and bias, for example; there was little to no coverage in the media over Ron Paul, they would completely leave him out of the news, even when he was still in the race. This is just one thing the media is leaving out, think of the more important issues that we are oblivious of. Your blog will be very helpful to many people. Good idea!
