With Mixed Results, Ron Paul Tries To Terrify Small Town Iowa
SIOUX CENTER, IOWA Ron Paul stood before a crowded public library conference room here and warned the packed house about that the United Nations is coming to take their land and that America is this close to riots in the streets against a government that is becoming more and more like a dictatorship.
Though he was well-received, these two classic Paulisms fell flat somewhat.
This was vintage Paul, the kind of fear of the one-world government and terror over the Amero (North American currency conspiracy) that has been a fixture of Pauls persona on the national stage. Even as Paul has pushed into the top tier of the Iowa caucus contest, he hasnt toned down his core rhetoric. This kind of consistency is why people like Paul, even if they dont entirely buy into his paranoia.
Heres what that sounded like in Sioux Center, a small town in the northwest of the Hawkeye State.

Paul warned of the pro-United Nations lobby coming to take control of your property:
If you want to use your property, you have to get a lot of permits. If youre in the development business, from the low-level all the way to the top, you have to get permission from the federal government
Im fearful because some people would like us to go all the way to the UN and have the UN controlling our lands, too.
