WASHINGTON (FMLiveWire) -- Ron Paul's Republican presidential campaign has set campaign fundraising records and captured more delegates during his presidential run than some of his high-profile Republican rivals, and now his new book is tops on Amazon's bestseller list.
"The Revolution: A Manifesto" released in late April is currently No. 1 on Amazon's list of bestsellers, beating even Oprah's latest Book Club selection. The book will also debut on the New York Times Bestseller List shortly.
Despite a media blackout and censorship from John McCain Republicans, the physician-turned-Texas congressman has sparked a movement that has attracted a legion of young, dedicated, enthusiastic supporters, a phenomenon that has amazed veteran political observers and made more than one political rival envious.
Candidates across America are already running as 'Ron Paul Republicans.'
Paul wrote this book in the midst of his 2007-2008 educational campaign for the Republican nomination.
It is a response to the demand from many to understand his political and economic philosophy behind his campaign, and its place in modern libertarian history.
The book explains why the average voter must care about liberty and what can be done about it in terms of public policy.
He explains the workings of the free market, the incompetence of government, the real purpose of the US Constitution, the dangers of an imperial foreign policy and much more.
Ron Paul's book also explains why the US government is expanding, taxes are increasing, more senseless wars are being planned, inflation is ballooning and why our basic freedoms are disappearing.
The Founding Fathers didn't want any of this. In fact, they said so quite clearly in the Constitution of the United States of America.
Unfortunately, that beautiful, ingenious, and revolutionary document is being ignored more and more in Washington. If we are to enjoy peace, freedom, and prosperity once again, we absolutely must return to the principles upon which America was founded, Paul argues.
In The Revolution, Ron Paul has exposed the core truths behind everything threatening America, from the real reasons behind the collapse of the dollar and the looming financial crisis, to Bush's oil wars, terrorism and the loss of our civil liberties. His book provides answers to questions that few even dare to ask.
