By getting the American people hyped up on how "we can sell the golds and be a rich Country again" enough pressure COULD be put upon the guvment to admit... there is no gold. [/quote]

But it's also true that Ron Paul-style themes have percolated through the conservative movement since Paul's beat-the-spread 2008 presidential campaign. Of all those themes, the one that has achieved the widest audience is
Paul's call for a return to money based on precious metals such as gold and silver.
