Florida Liberty Summit Jordan Page

Orlando Florida April 4th 2014



Jordan Page began the day’s event with his powerful and energetic music. Using the message of freedom and the issues that The Liberty Movement has been promoting and exposing for so long, he gave those in attendance THE show to begin the show. He shared some stories about his path to individual liberty, talking about the inspirations to his music and lyrics and the things that he sees as the most pressing issues of our time. The Military Industrial Complex and the constant state of war and conquest, The Federal Reserve and it’s printing of billions of dollars in worthless currency and it’s mandated use by the  US Federal Government to the loss of individual recognition in society today.
“Why do we sit down when all should be standing?”
The message in his songs reverberates the ideals and frustrations in the hearts and minds of Libertarians and Voluntaryists around the world. Giving those who hear him the musical outlet to release those frustrations and to connect their hopes and ideals to music, Jordan constantly and consistently makes the case for freedom in an exciting and fantastic way with his talent.
To me this is the one artist in the liberty movement that I recommend everyone hear at least once in their lives.

Set List Included:
The Message of Freedom
The Middle
Victory Song
Liberty
NEW SONG!!!  From his not yet released album: Sedition






The Great Dictator's Speech by Charlie Chaplin

This is the speech given by a character played by Charlie Chaplin in his movie The Great Dictator. 



I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be an emperor. That’s not my business. I don’t want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone - if possible - Jew, Gentile - black man - white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way.
Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost....
The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men - cries out for universal brotherhood - for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world - millions of despairing men, women, and little children - victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people.
To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish. .....
Soldiers! don’t give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts! You don’t hate! Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural! Soldiers! Don’t fight for slavery! Fight for liberty!
In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: “the Kingdom of God is within man” - not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people have the power - the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfill that promise. They never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people! Now let us fight to fulfill that promise! Let us fight to free the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men’s happiness. Soldiers! in the name of democracy, let us all unite!
