The “Second American Revolution” Has Begun By Gerald Celente

Kingston, NY -- The natives are restless. The third shot of the “Second American Revolution” has been fired. History is being made. But just as with the first two shots, the third shot is not being heard.
America is seething. Not since the Civil War has anything like this happened. But the protests are either being intentionally downplayed or ignorantly misinterpreted.

The first shot was fired on April 15, 2009. Over 700 anti-tax rallies and “Tea Parties” erupted nationwide. Rather than acknowledge their significance, the general media either ignored or ridiculed both protests and protestors, playing on “tea bagging” for its sexual innuendo.

Initially President Obama said he was unaware of the tea parties. The White House later warned they could “mutate” into something “unhealthy.”

Shot #2 was fired on the Fourth of July, when throngs of citizens across the nation gathered to again protest “taxation without representation.” And as before, the demonstrations were branded right-wing mischief and dismissed.

The third volley, fired in early August, was aimed point blank at Senators and House members pitching President Obama’s health care reform package to constituents. In fiery town hall meetings, enraged citizens shouted down their elected representatives. It took a strong police presence and/or burly bodyguards to preserve a safe physical space between the politicians and irate townspeople.

The White House and the media have labeled protestors “conservative fringe elements,” or as players in staged events organized by Republican operatives that have been egged on by Fox news and right-wing radio show hosts.

In regard to this latest wave of outbursts, health industry interests opposed to any reform are also being blamed for inciting the public. But organized or spontaneous is not the issue. While most protestors exhibit little grasp of the complex 1000 page health care reform document (that nary a legislator has read either), their emotion is clearly real and un-staged.

Rightly or wrongly, the legislation is regarded as yet another straw on the already overloaded camel’s back. A series of gigantic, unpopular government-imposed (but taxpayer-financed) bailouts, buyouts, rescue and stimulus packages have been stuffed down the gullet of Americans. With no public platform to voice their opposition, options for citizens have been limited to fruitless petitions, e-mails and phone calls to Congress … all fielded by anonymous staff underlings.

Now, with Congress in recess and elected representatives less than a stone’s throw away, the public is exploding. The devil is not in the details of the heath care reform, the devil is the government mandating health care. Regardless of how the plan is pitched or what is being promised, to the public the legislation is yet another instance of big government taking another piece out of their lives and making them pay for it; again telling them what they can or cannot do.

Though in its early stages, the “Second American Revolution” is underway. Yet, what we forecast will become the most profound political trend of the century – the trend that will change the world – is still invisible to the same experts, authorities and pundits who didn’t see the financial crisis coming until the bottom fell out of the economy.

Trend Forecast: Conditions will continue to deteriorate. The global economy is terminally ill. The recession is in a brief remission, not the early stages of recovery. Cheap money, easy credit and unrestrained borrowing brought on an economic crisis that cannot be cured by monetary and fiscal policies that promote more cheap money, easy credit and unrestrained borrowing.

Nevertheless, Washington will continue to intervene, tax and exert control. Protests will escalate and riots will follow.

Fourth Shot of the “Second American Revolution”: While there are many wild cards that could light the fuse, The Trends Research Institute forecasts that if the threat of government-forced Swine Flu vaccinations is realized, it will be the fourth shot. Tens of millions will fight for their right to remain free and unvaccinated.

Publisher’s Note: The power of the Internet and new technologies is inexorably fermenting the “Second American Revolution.” However widespread and emotionally charged, had the tax rallies, tea parties and healthcare reform protests occurred in years past, they might have been covered by the local media, but might not have made national headline news and thus would have died stillborn.

Now, with the ubiquitous camera-equipped cell phone, universal access to YouTube, and millions of twitters and tweets, the uprisings cannot be ignored, contained, managed, spun or edited down. The revolutionary fervor will prove contagious.

Can anything stop it?

Trend Forecast: Before the momentum of the “Second American Revolution” becomes unstoppable, it could be derailed through some false flag event designed to deceive the public, or a genuine event or crisis capable of rallying the entire nation behind the President. In a worst-case scenario, according to Trends Research Institute Director, Gerald Celente, “Given the pattern of governments to parlay egregious failures into mega-failures, the classic trend they follow, when all else fails, is to take their nation to war."

A false flag attempt, a genuine crisis, or a declaration of war, may slow the momentum of the “Second American Revolution,” but nothing will stop it.

if this revolution continues i think it will result in the destruction of a once great nation as opposed to the creation of a nation with great potential from the first american revolution. too many people believe in a country that never really was and think they can 'return' to that model. far better for the revolutionaries to see the world as it is and try to bring their country into the twenty-first century than to think they can return to the nineteen fifties.

It wont be this revolution that causes any destruction of this nation, it will be the political leaders and those that blindly follow their leadership.

In fact this might be the very thing that makes this great nation GREAT,

if it comes to a revolution your country is toast because it won't be a popular revolution with the majority of the population backing it. it will be a pwer grab by a minority that feels threatened.

I'm not calling for a revolution, but you can stay right there in Canada Don, "a country that never really was", you can shove that comment right up your a$$.

This is about stopping this movement towards Socialism, Progressivism, Statism, whatever. They have the chance to move to a country who already has these models they desire.

ben don't you think america has put out its share of propaganda throuthout its history and some of it aimed at its own citizens?

You have not heard me call for a revolution, because i haven't. I'm not waiting for one or want one, I don't like where it could head. Americans have been dumbed down by our lack of knowledge on history. Revolution is not the problem, the problem is that we don't have anyone to put it in the right direction.

What does this article have to do with militias? Look at Celente's credibility of being right.

Actions with violence will lead to a power grab, I believe they are setting the stage to incite a reaction. We see that and won't fall into their trap.

“I am calling for an ‘Intellectual Revolution’. I ask American citizens to free their minds from the tyranny of ’Dumb Think.’ This is a revolution about thinking - not manning the barricades. It’s about brain power - not brute force.”

:agree:
Thank you don for caring enough about the U.S. and the posters here to say this.

The two of you don't realize that any revolution will be to STOP the destruction of this great nation.

What worries me is the "false flag" comment.

When the government is involved with as much fearmongering in regards to the swine flu, you wonder if something might be up.

Our agencies are working with the Department of Agriculture to make sure children will have access to healthy meals if their schools close, and with Departments of Commerce and Labor to reach people at work.

Speaking at the North Georgia Technical College auditorium, Broun said that the “socialistic elite,” as well as Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, were planning to exploit a crisis to create a favorable climate for their stalling political agenda.

“They’re trying to develop an environment where they can take over,” he said. “We’ve seen that historically.”

Broun’s warning arrives on the back of a letter sent by The National Governors Association to the Pentagon last week, which condemns the military’s plans to usurp domestic control of National Guard and federal forces deployed in the event of a natural disaster or terrorist attack.

In December 2008 it was announced that at least 20,000 more active duty soldiers will be placed inside the United States under Northcom to “help state and local officials respond to a nuclear terrorist attack or other domestic catastrophe.”

Baled hay today and got a lot of other postive things I can control done. Got an e-mail back from my congressman said he read it but from his answers I knew he had not. I told him not to insult me. He has an R by his name I would have told him the same thing if he had a D. I replied to his E-mail and I told him to look in the mirror with the rest of them up there and you will see what is wrong in Washington.
Thanks for reading the above. This is a good website to read that Hypo posted. My first thought about the “Intellectual Revolution”
was that there will be a lot of folks not able to participate because they will not have the required weapon "intellect".
To set the record straight I am a 69 your old orney horney old cuss. 100% red blooded male. Hetrosexual. Married to the same women for 48 years really pity her for having to put up with me.

I cut some more hay tonight, finally getting another dry spell. This year has been crazy with rain.

The letter I got back from Snowe on the Cap and Trade was obviously a form letter. I replied back and ended by asking a specific question and said in the message that I would know if I was a victim of another form letter by the answer to my specific question.

How would you have time to chase anything outside of a blinking cursor on a computer screen?
