Article 1, Section 8 defines money as coin....Period.Nothing here says that Congress cannot issue paper money. Section 10 refers to the states coining their own money.
As such, all paper notes must be redeemable for specie.
No. You would have to show that "coin" exclusively meant metal when the Constitution was framed. I don't believe that is the case.

From the dictionary:
coin (koin)
n.
1. A small piece of metal, usually flat and circular, authorized by a government for use as money.
2. Metal money considered as a whole.
3. A flat circular piece or object felt to resemble metal money: a pizza topped with coins of pepperoni.
4. Architecture A corner or cornerstone.
5. A mode of expression considered standard: Two-word verbs are valid linguistic coin in the 20th century.
I'm sure we can both agree that 4 and 5 don't apply whatsoever in this case, so it pretty much looks like coin is metal and money. Soooooo you're dumb!

Geexus are you stupid.
It's like arguing that Obamacare was not going to increase costs because the CBO said so.
This is simply the logical extension of what is being proposed.
If you think the anti-Fed movement is not filled with anti-semites then you haven't been paying attention.
The Jew World Order is sinking the American economy. - YouTube
Saying those who oppose the fed are anti-semites is the same as saying those that oppose obama all hate black people. Are you a racist then Rabbi or are you voting for Obama?
Not even close as a parallel. What that guy is yelling in that VIDEO on Rabbi's post is typical of what you hear when you discuss the Fed, banking, and other favorite Ron Paul issues with too damn many of his supporters. I'veheard almost that same video diatribe verbatim. It's eeri, and should not be discounted.
You cannot federalize the Fed, per Article 1, Sections 8 & 10:The thing is, if we just FEDERALIZE the FED, are we really solving anything?
It's the CLASSIST manner in which the FED operates that I am proposing ought to change.
Section 8: The Congress shall have Power To...coin Money (a very specific process, which defines "money" as specie), regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;
Section 10: No State shall...coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts;
Pretty much what I said.
Not everyone opposed to the Fed is an anti semite. But you have to wonder how much crankery is involved when opposition to the Fed often turns ugly like that.

The Federal Reserve was created to suck money out of our country, period. I can't think of any reason to keep it.
We will never get out of debt as long as we keep the Fed.
Video in first reply explains well how, and now...Ron Paulites - please explain - how do we end the fed?
In particular, what happens to the Fed's assets and liabilities?

What would you suggest that your surgeon do with a malignant tumor?

WTF, "assets and liabilities" have you forgotten that they are resisting a fucking audit?

I'm willing to bet the folks in here calling people anti-semite and crank over ending the federal reserve don't have the slightest clue what the federal reserve is, how it operates and the history of this countries struggle to keep a central bank from forming.
I have to admit, those that want to maintain control over the money supply, have done a brilliant job burying reality deep behind the cognitive dissonance of the plebs. Their state craft is unmatched.
