In 1963 JFK signed an executive order to eliminate the Federal Reserve. It still stands, from the information that I got. The website I got the data from is down but I'll put part of the article here
John F. Kennedy vs The Federal Reserve
On June 4, 1963, a virtually unknown Presidential decree, Executive Order 11110, was signed with the authority to basically strip the Federal Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the United States Federal Government at interest. With the stroke of a pen, President Kennedy declared that the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank would soon be out of business. The Christian Law Fellowship has exhaustively researched this matter through
the Federal Register and Library of Congress. We can now safely conclude that this Executive Order has never been repealed, amended, or superceded by any subsequent Executive Order. In simple terms, it is still valid.
When President John Fitzgerald Kennedy - the author of Profiles in Courage -signed this Order, it returned to the federal government, specifically the Treasury Department, the Constitutional power to create and issue currency
-money - without going through the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank. President Kennedy's Executive Order 11110 [the full text is displayed further below] gave the Treasury Department the explicit authority: "to
issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury." This means that for every ounce of silver in the U.S. Treasury's vault, the government could introduce new money into circulation based on the silver bullion physically held there. As a result, more than $4 billion in United States Notes were brought into circulation in $2 and $5 denominations. $10 and $20 United States Notes were never circulated but were being printed by the Treasury Department when Kennedy was assassinated. It appears obvious that President Kennedy knew the Federal Reserve Notes being used as the purported legal currency were contrary to the Constitution of the united States of America.
United States Notes" were issued as an interest-free and debt-free currency backed by silver reserves in the U.S. Treasury. We compared a "Federal Reserve Note" issued from the private central bank of the United States (the Federal Reserve Bank a/k/a Federal Reserve System), with a "United States Note" from the U.S. Treasury issued by President Kennedy's Executive Order. They almost look alike, except one says "Federal Reserve Note" on
the top while the other says "United States Note". Also, the Federal Reserve Note has a green seal and serial number while the United States Note has a red seal and serial number.
President Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963 and the United States Notes he had issued were immediately taken out of circulation.
Federal Reserve Notes continued to serve as the legal currency of the nation. According to the United States Secret Service, 99% of all U.S. paper "currency" circulating in 1999 are Federal Reserve Notes.

He will restore the world's opinion of us. And he'll restore our Constitutional rights. Also, he will do away with the huge bureaucracy and spending waste in Washington.

The Executive Branch of the government is HUGE and the President is the Commander in Chief of the armed forces, so there is a lot that he can do.
- He is the only one of the candidates who will end this stupid war in Iraq.
- He is the only one who will do anything about the moronic federal interference in education.
- He is the only one who will defend your interests against the micromanaging busy bodies in Congress.
- He is the only one who will tell you the truth and do exactly what he says he will do. His record proves that.

He will get us out of a war that we didn't need to be in in the first place. Abolishing the IRS sounds good to me too. Wouldn't you like to keep the money that the government takes out of your paychecks every week? I know we could use it at my house.

Paul has already stated that he would have to compromise with Congress in order to implement his ideas. It's unlikely many of them will be passed. But he will get us OUT of the middle east, demand congressional modification for the Patriot Act, pay off the national debt by reducing government spending taking the burden of taxpayers and secure our borders.. that's more then anyone else will accomplish

He CAN'T do anything ... unless he has approval of congress - no matter what he says to get you to vote for him. If you doubt this accusation, look at the US Constitution and how bills are made and passed. If Ron Paul is planning on changing the US Constitution, then maybe his spews would be made into laws. Look, Ron Paul sounds good to those who want real change. Well, I want my country back, but Ron Paul isn't the vehicle to get change started!

He will fight to repeal the Patriot Act and return our country to the rule of law rather than the current system in which we've lost habeas corpus, the most important instrument for the safeguarding of individual freedom against arbitrary state action.

He'd probably pass smooth the hell out from the shock of actually winning the election.
