I love how the leftists think they know how conspiratorial the right is...when the truth is the real manipulators are those on the left. All the folks who believe the propaganda and lies fed to them throughout their lives by the mass media, their schools, and even some of their religious leaders (if they have one) who really can't think for themselves. They can't honestly listen to the other side with an open mind...it is sad because it is leading us to tyranny
Neither Joe the Plumber (Jebus, not hardly in any case) nor Sarah Paling have a stinking clue about what MEET JOHN DOE was about, and they never will, no matter how much they invoke it in their prattle.
Not even the Koch Brothers, who are direct descendants of D.B. Norton . . . I'll stop there and let others either fill in the narrative or continue to be fools.
The planned manipulation of the popular vote is exactly what the Republicans and Tea Party have orchestrated, for the purposes of acquiring power for the richest of the rich. Precisely just as this movie shows.
I don't read my speaches anynore, either, before I write them.
Capra and his screenwriters may have written stuff. And it was good from the start. But it always got better with the actors reading it and acting it. Even Walter Brennan got into this gig, and (besides the fact that he was an acting genius), he seemed to be fine with others taking over. As long as he agreed with their goals.
Think about all the movements, 912, 911 truth, Constitutional, Lebertarians, all to be divided and conquered, so they stay in their Bureaclasses, you see these Men and Women in DC, they want to be Wealthy and Elite, they really couldnt be either, so they created the Bureaclasses and WE THE PEOPLE ALLOWED THEM TO CREATE IT, and they will do whatever it takes to keep what they have gained, even if it is a boot on the face of humanity for all time, make no mistake as to what is coming, it is DARK
@clarisd : A note of hope: everything happens in cycles, and it really is always darkest just before the dawn. We tend to try to imitate what we see in the movies, and SOMETIMES that's a good thing. Something good and something huge IS happening. Rejoice in the anticipation of it, envision it, and make it yours. ;])

@JanineC4 Not about left v. right. It's top 1% v. the rest of us. Question the tyranny of capital with your open mind.

7:30 Sounds like the meeting of the five families in The Godfather! Earlier on, the newspaper boss sounds looks, and acts like Young Vito Corleone.

You know, it was just business.
But I have weaknesses just like James
Gleason.

In addition to this being the best drunk scene I have ever seen, it is part of Frank Capra's greatest film.
And that's saying a whole helluva lot.
