A couple of years earlier than the Ron Paul ?Revolution? rocking the American landscape, Chevy was selling autos and trucks by positioning themselves as a ?Chevy Revolution? which was pretty radical compared to ?baseball, hot dogs, applie pie and Chevrolet?
In the last couple of years, the word ?revolution? has popped up in the advertising world many more times.
Of course, the real revolution was the birth of the internet.
Webster's definitions for the word ?revolution? include
1.a sudden, radical, or complete change
2.activity or movement designed to effect fundamental changes in the socioeconomic situation
3.fundamental change in the way of thinking about or visualizing something : a change of paradigm
4. a changeover in use or preference especially in technology
And then there is the definition relative to the forceful replacement of the government by a new one.
But the Ron Paul Revolution is more accurately situated in the preceding definitions as it is about making a change in policy.
What is interesting though, and a very validating statement about human nature, is that the closer we get to the heart of man, by facilitating communication through technology, the more we find libertarian views and a yearning for freedom and liberty. Of course, that brings with it some consequences as there are those who abuse those freedoms with pornography, hate speech and so forth. But such people are in the minority. The vast majority of people love cell phones, the internet, text messaging and so forth because of the freedom that it gives them and the way that it assists communication and makes them and their friends more accessible. And THAT, my fellow revolutionary, IS a revolution by any of the four definitions listed above.

There is one particular revolution that is rapidly growing and that was inevitable. Farmers in Iowa are in a situation where they are reliant upon a creature that is killing them. They need government subsidies in order to survive. But government regulations are wiping out the small farmer in favor of larger corporately owned farms. The same situation has existed for all of us at the fuel pump. The fuel companies have had us reliant upon them while they have been lifting fuel prices while they have made billions of dollars in profit. Something had to give and it has. Many auto owners are now opting out of financial servitude to the fuel companies and are declaring their independence by converting their auto engines from fuel to hydrogen fully or partially.
If you make a partial conversion you might get 30% fuel economy . If you do a full conversion then you are looking at never having to pay a penny or pump a gas pump ever again. Do this and you will have joined the revolution!
