There seems to have arisen an unintended consequence of the Ron Paul v. Rudy Giuliani drama... but fret not; it's a trivial one.

It's a kind of controversy-within-a-"controversy" in the form of how some 911 "conspiracists" discern and react to the way Ron Paul prevailed over the 911 "clash of civilizations" mob the other night at the GOP debate.

It's an uncomfortable subject to address, but I feel that I must.

I've been witnessing a sort of minor discontent amongst fellow 911 truthseekers and debunkers over the fact that Dr. Paul hasn't volunteered any opinions or hypotheses on the whole 911-debunking discussion as an extension of his debunking of the "They hate us because of our freedoms" fraud.

911 truthseekers shouldn't worry that Ron Paul is not necessarily pushing theories or beliefs which, in this day and age, are indomitably packaged by the mainstream mafia and MIC as being "fringe conspiracy theories".

The way I see it: It's not a dishonorable compromise of principles for a presidential candidate to abstain in this regard for the fear of "blowback," especially if one lacks the authority or authoritative support to prove his perceivably "whacko" opinions to be right.

That's not to say that Ron Paul can not prove that 911 was an inside job (or what I like to call it: an inside-out job).

It's just that his chance to express his 911 hypotheses (whatever they may be) without stifling and damning opposition – as well as his authority to act upon his hypotheses and uncertainties – will come only after he becomes President.

The points of my argument are that we shouldn't fret that he has, so far, not dissentingly opined on the "who" and "how" of 911, and that we should have full confidence in him that, once he is elected, he will prosecute 911 as ethically, thoroughly, strictly and open-mindedly as lawfully possible.

I urge my fellow 911 truth-seekers to consider my full argument in those regards.

Dr. Paul has done two crucial things to have been elected to 10 terms in The House, and to be on such a winning path to the Republican nomination and the Presidency:

1) He's been his usual self: a shrewd, honest, humble, conscientious, practical, and highly ethical man, and 2) He has grounded everything he has said in historical, emperical evidence and authoritative credibility.

(There are other important things, but just for the sake of keeping within the context of the recent Paul v. Giuliani row, those should suffice.)

Thus far, he has dominated all the other candidates in both style and substance; none of them can touch him on either account. He should win the nomination, and, with the way Democrats are loving him, he should be elected President.

Thus far, the basis for media mistreatment of him is so contrived that Ron Paul can only win in the end for it (him being provably correct, and credible in his assertions, that is). Mainstream media and political character assassins currently have no plausible holes through which they can poke their pointy sticks and draw blood.

On the other hand, Ron Paul could volunteer some very plausible and rational arguments similar to those of independent researchers like Rys2sense and others — backed up with a vast amount of historical and emperical evidence; however, the only problem is that he is currently lacking one thing: the authoritative mandate to prosecute 911 and a sufficient number of colleagues in Congress who are willing to tag along with an investigation. Those factors combine to turn on the green light for the inevitable mainstream mafia "blowback," in addition to sabotage on his perceived credibility by well-poisoners and commissioned finks who call themselves "911 truthers".

In other words: Being in the "dissenting" view and being provably correct, yet not being backed up by government entities or official decree on the matter and without having Executive authority to order an investigation ad libitum, or any judicial or legislative backing, for that matter, one is inviting disaster and almost unshakable character assassination – at which point, The Presidency is all but lost.

Call it what you like (shrewdness, compromise, selling out). I call it necessity. He needs to stick to the Twain anecdote ("It's better to... than to open your mouth and...") at this point, no matter how convincing the 911-debunking argument is on a logical and imperical level. Pleading the 5th is still a constitutional right; they haven't taken that one away just yet.

Dr. Paul surely realizes that the only way he's going to be able to move toward a just closure of 911 is to get elected; that entails sticking to those two things I mentioned above.

That being said, I believe that once he becomes President, he WILL conduct/authorize independent investigations of the attacks. As it is now, all he can really do is tell people he's open to independent investigations, because that's what we will eventually have to do if we are to execute the process of bringing the guilty to justice.

What are the chances that, as a Congressman, Ron Paul can get an official, independent 911 investigation or two started, much less, an investigation, the appointees of which he would have arbitrary power to select? What are the chances? Zero. When he becomes President? Guaranteed chance.

It's sad to say, but in the political arena of running for President, that reality of zero chance + espousing a so-called "conspiracy theory" = zero credibility and nearly all laughability – not to us and him (the seekers of truth), but to him (the man currently seeking The Presidency).

That's not to say that I know what Ron Paul feels about 911, because I don't. In my bantamweight opinion, it doesn't matter, really. What matters is that we have every reason to trust that he's not the type of man who would refuse to investigate, or appoint others to investigate, something that is credibly sourced, accompanied by imperical evidence and historical truths, and extremely vital to national interests.

Ron Paul just needs Executive authority to do what any reasonable, patriotic, shrewd president would do: facilitate the process for bringing 911 justice to fruition.

I'm willing to put my trust in him and not be bothered by the fact that he hasn't gone all proactive 911 debunker on us. What we are witnessing is a most unprecedented run at The Presidency. This is a centennial, or maybe bicentennial, chance at national salvation: a true restoration of all that is right and just and promising for our country.

I trust that President Ron Paul and his staff will bring closure and healing to the gaping wounds of our past and present, and that he will hire good, smart and ethical people and he will use his Executive authority to prosecute 911 to the fullest of his constitutional power; of that I am confident.

I'm not fretting it, and neither should any of my fellow 911 "conspiracists".
