Part 2 Here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FbyQB8...

Educational video explaining the Constitutional and legal history of the US Dollar. This video contains many high resolution images showing many examples of all the the money the United States has produced since the very beginning. This is the thinking of the people who support a return to the Gold Standard, and rightful Constitutional money. I used nothing but established historical facts, and clear images of the money itself. This is what Ron Paul is talking about, and this is WHY we have the crisis we have now. Regardless of partisan politics, or economic philosophy, gold and silver money is the law. It's vitally important all Americans understand what exactly a dollar IS.

    EMI blocked your second video. Could you possibly re-upload it without the offending music? I found it interesting and wanted to re-share it. I posted part one on our convention blog. Part one works fine, but without part 2 it kind of leaves you hanging. :)

    You can go to my channel, and it's listed on the right. YouTube blocked it, but they didn't pull it. You can see it from my channel.

    If your desire is to make money online, search in google for "Cole Cash Code".

    Notice personally why Cole Cash Code is different and innovative, this really is genuine stuff you could very easily understand how it really works, unlike just about all the scamming systems on the internet. Run a google search for "Cole Cash Code".

    Left out here is that something on the order of 90% to 95% of " money in circulation" isn't even printed money. It is debt in the form of loans from banks not even backed by paper ( it is all book keeping).

    Federal Reserve notes were not as common in circulation as the video makes it seem. In fact ones were not printed until series 1963. I don't know what part of the year, but I did not see one for several years and was paid at one time in silver dollars and later $2 US Notes.

    Coincidentally, one dollar US Notes did not circulate after 1923 except in Puerto Rico.

    JFK was trying to issue more United State Notes (think Lincoln). Silver was withdrawn from backing our currency three months after his death and Silver Certificates were issued for several more years, but not specificly redeemable in silver, just coins. Silver coinage was quickly hoarded and the bills shreded as they passed through the Federal Reserve.
