You Rock Peter, we were all cheering for you. AMerica is too stupid for you anyways. The common person can't even comprehend what you are saying, because they have been brainwashed far too long.
Peter is so intelligent, focused, and charismatic, I don't see how McMahon got nominated. I call Bullcrap. She looks about 3 times dumber than Peter, and that's a very scientific estimation! :) (humor....it goes along way) Seriously you HAVE to question the "right' when they pick McMahon over Peter.
@everyone: Pay attention to how Ron Paul speaks ... he's patient, kind and only rarely loses his cool. Why? Because if we could win over minds by doing anything but that it;d be done already. Peter Schiff is doing the same thing. He knows that a lot of people have conditioned responses and unthinking labels and he has to speak strategically. He's not selling out or playing politics. He's simply being smart. He needs to speak of touchy subjects in increments. He doesn't have a spoonful of sugar.
He already stated that he thought it was a mistake to go into Iraq, so he's not being interventionist there.
On the Iran issue, I think he's being cautious in saying that IF in fact, Iran is seeking nuclear weapons, that we do what it takes to make sure it doesn't happen, but at the same time, not get caught up in an endless war. I though his answer was reasonable.
treboomboom, I have the same concern. He'll say one thing sympathetic to non-intervention, but then says something straight outta the neocons playbook.
Tea Partiers and repubs have been easy to win over on the economic and helath care issues. But when it comes to war, terrorism, military spending, Israel, etc., they won't budge. Not even the slightest compromise. I think Peter knows this and knows he won't have a chance to win if he doesnt at least pretend to be a little warhawkish.
It's not hard to find recent videos of Peter Schiff from before he developed his foreign policy beliefs. However, considering he used to be Ron Paul's financial advisor's, he has a decent chance of coming to believe that we screwed up in the Middle East - even the dems are WAAAY more warhawkish than Ron.
However, if Peter thinks that Iran would give nuclear weapons to terrorists, he would probably support intervention. He'd likely opt for compromise first though.
@treboomboom I didn't get that from what he said. It seemed more to me he's still for simply a strong defense but worded it in a way to appeal to the neocons which even though I disagree it will win him votes.
Further I don't agree that we need anti-government ideas to reduce government. At one time we were running an ideal government that remained Constitutional. Peter constantly preaches that we don't need to change government but we need to return to the Constitutional government we once had. So we don't need change we just need to return to when we were more responsible.
Health Care Policy? Revive again the Hill-Burton Health Care Policy which was created WW II and had been working perfectly before it was destroyed by President Nixon who replaced it with HMOs. Economy? Use Tax Credits Policy, especially on key critical industries like machine tools, machine building, heavy engineering, medical engineering. Education? Go back to basics, use Latin to reinforce learning, and proclaim English as our national unifying language. Defense? Nuke us then we'll nuke you.
no I say that with admiration b/c thats exactly what we need. The gov has become a yoke around the neck of all of us. Net tax consumers now outnumber net tax payers. We are officially a bankrupt welfare state banana republic. Schiff and the Austrian movement may actually be able to change this.
@kotash2 Schiff is not anti-government. He believes there are certain things the government does well in a free society and certain things in doesn't do well. He is pretty accurate in his analysis and one of the only people I've seen that has a clue about the real world.
I've been an investor with him for while. He is definately antigoverment. He might be moderating his views so as not to alienate more mainstream republicans. But he is an anarchist in the tradition of ROTHBARD. And this is exactly what we need. To reduce the size and scope of the US gov to levels it was at right after the american revolution.
I hardly think that's true. In fact i remember how much he disagreed with his dad who might have leaned on the radical side. Peter has proven time again to be very practical in his ideas. It is extremely difficult to fault his ideas. He shows this in his confidence of word.
@MayonR Im not faulting his ideas at all. I agree with him. I trust him. Even Lew Rockwell + the crowd at Mises say : well you shouldnt have to bcome a martyr. Meaning you shouldnt let yourself get arrested for say not paying a parking ticket. So yes we all have to be practical in live in the world as it is. BUT Mr Peter schiff shares the radical anti0goverment views of the bulk of the libertarians. He wont say it b/c he doent want to scare away conservatives + even potential clients.
I still don't agree with this even though some think we need this. On the contrary he is always trying to convince Washington to return to practical business procedures. I would agree that he is anti-tyranny. And if Washington returns to fiscal responsibility I would say he would be completely pro-government. Please list some of his beliefs which strike you as anarchist.
@MayonR go to the Europac website and read and listen to ALL his past weekly radio shows and read the archives of his newsletters. He would shrink the gov drastically...to levels like before the civil war. He is a constitutionalist.
is it me or did this lady just copy everthing that Peter Schiff said right after he said it and then proceed to contradict herself in the following sentence
@chrisdabdoub She already has the lead. If all she does is copies him then she can win. She has the popularity. ALso she knows too well she cant talk money against a guy who does it for a living. She is a joke.
I liked his comment about gridlock, and I totally agree with him. Gridlock is a good thing because it prevents republicans and democrats from passing laws that screw up everything.
4:13—Simmons said he worked with Democrats of the "same opinion." The question is: how would he work with politicians of a DIFFERENT opinion! Of course, he doesn't want to talk about that.
Peter, don't talk about "they." Directly address Simmons and McMahon. Tell us how Simmons and McMahon share the flaws of existing and present legislators. Face your immediate opponents...
If this video evinces anything, it's that McMahon and Simmons will give us more of the same lukewarm political performance already inundating our federal legislature. Just look at their rhetoric—they each follow the same formula, for crying in the rain! They touch on their past experience and then use flowery buzz words to gloss over their complete lack of conviction (e.g., "consensus"). YAWN! They're reading from the same tired playbook.
I don't think alot of people came to youtube to watch anyone other than Peter... and by looking at your comments that seems to be true... not to mention all his subscribers watch it here... Wonder what connecticut voters thinks.
The only competition up there is Linda so Peter should start the rebuttal attacks against her incompetence. I see Linda "stealing" Peter's strong lines "not being a career politician" etc.
@TheRepublicX IMHO linda is not the answe. From all her answers I see a RINO. She's committed to her political career (you dont spend 50 millioin if you dont want to get in the game long term)
Interesting, you're an Aussie, I'm a Brit - neither of our opinions ultimately matter in this race.
However, with regards to your comment, did you even watch the video? Schiff is totally on the ball. He is essential for America if it wants to have a chance of recovery.
So few people have a sound understanding of economics. Connecticut and America would be lucky to have him in the Senate.
That retard TheRepublicX lives in Australia (thats what shows on his profile). I don't get him anyways either his a troll kid or HE GOT PAYED BY LINDA LOL to type this bull**** here and everywhere else.
@LuvDestinFL1 She was awful. She had no new points to make. The whole "we all agree" thing was extremely annoying. This is a debate! We want to know what sets you apart Linda! Which we all know is simply nothing. Peter won this debate hands down in my mind. His message has been consistent and he is actually educated on the message he preaches.
Simmons pisses me off when he says things twice, with a ridiculous pause in between...
