French Revolution

A bloody revolution in france, during that time France is pretty screwed up (like other times but they *gasp* did something besides whining). The peasants found themselves in an unescapable system of economy which taxes denies even simple survival while noble use their hard earned cash to feast and do nothing except kill unhappy peasants. To add to the problems, the new king Louis and his wife Marie Antoinette were incompetant and this only added to the problems. The Catalyst was when Louis decided to call the 3 estates to form an assembly to help solve the dying french economy. Ironically, everyone pitched in the effort to create a more equal france. A series of killings, wars and such happened and eventually Louis was executed along with his wife. This was the event that will soon lead to the reign of terror, and napoleon. The latter being France's only moment of glory.

Thanks to the revolutions we triggered a series of events that brought our culture today

school year's resolution

A commitment an individual makes to a positive lifestyle change to coincide with the first day of school -- when daily schedules for both kids and parents tend to become more regular.

There's no way Sarah could avoid lying around and stuffing her face with fatty food during the summer, but she's making a school year's resolution to eat better and exercise.

Ron Paul Revolution

The current hope of American's, to restore our county to its founding principles.

Mainly, restoring the policy of non interventionism and recalling our military empire of 900 US military bases off foreign lands to bring them back home to defend "OUR" country.

A movement against the status quo government and current unethical policies.

Restoring honesty, integrity, and wisdom in our government.

This and much much more is achieved in several ways overtime, which is why this is called a movement. However, it will all happen much faster and more immediate if we can elect Ron Paul as President of the once great "United States of America" in 2012.

"Join the Ron Paul Revolution!" Become a supporter, an activist, a voter, etc...
