Ron Paul Speech (08/31/2007)

[goingtobeapilot]

I have a question, has there ever been an independant pres. in office? I seriously don't know. (P.S. please excuse my bad spelling. lol)

[angcar2]

@goingtobeapilot George Washington. He later became a federalist.

[gwar7690]

I'm a liberal... Most would see me as very democrat... But, i believe in our constitution and what this country was founded on and sadly, since bush clinton then bush, the constitution has been systematically eliminated...

So forget this phoney left right paradon.. We finally have a real choice...

RON PAUL 2008!!!!!!!!!!!

[MadCproductions]

actually the constitution was changed in 1914. to steal money from the american workers.. tax the dollars you work hard for...

vote for ron paul.. let's put the power back in the peoples hands!

[Cooman456]

Youtube cut off my comment:

But sadly, they aren't. That's a pretty small voting block. Old people never use the net to donate money, they think the net is good only for research and e-mailing. Paul should run as an Independent, and he's being dumb not to. He could actually win, a lot of people like him and so many people hate Guilianni and Clinton.

[galussp]

If Ron Paul ran as an independent than he wouldn't have had the national exposure that he got! This ~democracy is totally broken. Ron Paul could win the vote of the people and still would not win because of voter fraud, super delegates, and a non-democratic state ruling over its employees (the U.S. citizens).

[Cooman456]

Ron Paul's great, but he won't make the nomination. Sure, he makes a shitload of money, but you want to know why? He's big with all the TEENAGERS, the ones too young to vote. You know why Ron Paul makes the most on the internet? Because kids are the most politically active on the internet, and these teenagers ask their parents to donate $5 or something. If all Republicans were are 18-30, Ron Paul would win, no questions asked. It seems like every young Republican likes him.

[TraxX11191]

not only young republicans, i'd consider myself independent, i'm 17 and will be to young to vote for president but you see i have tons of friends who are 18 or will be and they could care less for politics but will register republican and vote for ron paul for me....and trust me others will do that and not all of us have parents to donate money, a lot of us work...remember we're teenagers, we find a way to do it

[reflectivegoat]

Your comment regarding the source of Ron Paul's contributions is unfounded and speculative. FACT: he receives more donations from active duty military than any other candidate. DO you really think that pre-18 year old kids are going to their parents and asking them to donate to a presidential candidate?

[codelion]

RON PAUL ROCKS

[framecut]

"Freedom brings people together, the constitution

because it's not aggressive, it's not ANTAGONISTIC,

it says that people should be free, mind our own business and keep the fruits of our own labour."

GET THAT RON PAULITES? DON'T BE ANTAGONISTIC TO THOSE WHO QUESTION DR. PAUL. Dr. Paul supports people's right to openly dissent against his view of Liberty.

[InTheSticks1881]

No one since Reagan has inspired me like this guy.

[wildflower420]

I guess the opposition to Ron Paul heard what he had to say and have moved up the register times to not allow any more to "come over".

[CoolHandLuke1970]

Love Ron Paul--a real American hero!

[ceovp]

PRESIDENT RON PAUL 2008!!

[destinyson23]

Go Ron Paul!! (A UK Ron Paul Fan!)

[maranelloboy]

One of his better speeches I believe!!!!!

Ron Paul rulezzzz, please USA elect him

[d00bied00]

I second that...very effective grassroots-type speech! I can really understand him when he talks...unlike feeling utterly confused when someone like Romney or Giuliani speaks. I frequently find myself say, "What?" after one of those duds speaks.

Ron Paul 2008!!

[waluum]

I would be so honored to call Carol Paul (Ron Paul's wife) the First Lady.

[hudsoncar]

Magnolia, Texas will vote for RON PAUL for PRESIDENT in 2008.

[supastarSARUH]

Ron Paul will not be allowed to win the Presidency by the same forces that prevented Robert Kennedy from getting there. He is not part of the "Establishment" that rules no matter what political party holds the White House.

[aether222]

C'mon, the only faith a president should have is in FTL travel, Plus who honestly thinks a republican stands a chance after Bush screwing things (uh, and to say that's putting it lightly is putting it VERY lightly!)

[selfhappy]

virginia loves him

[Kaotikreb]

VA hates Ron Paul.

[fullmoonriseing]

f off

[androsphelos]

New Jeresy for Ron Paul

[cherrielane]

Hawaiians love Ron Paul

[jshann]

Everyone loves Ron Paul!!!!

[riffjiff]

MY God! Finally a real American Hero! RON Paul Will Win by a Lanslide, Lets hope Diebold or whoever counts the votes doesn't Screw America over again!!! RON PAUL 2008

"The Constitution is the Solution"

[jdubincali]

Californians loves Ron Paul

[frannyward]

Pennsylvanians love Ron Paul more..

[nhbright]

if he were a real candidate he would campaign in NH. He is a college professor type with ideas-many good, but he is not taking them to the people except by video.

[leepakim]

PEOPLE: he NEEDS to win the nomination first...afterwards you can elect him so get him nominated.

[DaftAida]

It all sounds very good news except that Paul is very shy about 911 and is still pushing Republican'ism' which is ruled by the same malevolent forces behind Democrat'ism'. Seems like the best option by far though, with no equal or competition,so we shall see.Who in UK on this level? No-one.

[Mohrphaeus]

Brazil for RON PAUL

;)

[dogzzz3]

Outstanding speech, I wish we had the equivalent of this guy in the UK!

[dogzzz3]

UK for Ron Paul!!!

ROn Paul, constructing a miracle one voter at a time!

[edisonoside]

Getting rid of the IRS is something that I as an American would like to see. A grand and good change. REAL change, That sure would be SOMETHING to see.

[shadowmudz]

get rid of the fed now!

[SIERRAHPBT]

Folks.... RON PAUL NEEDS DELEGATES! IF RON WOULD WIN THE PRIMARY, HE PROBABLY WOULD NOT GET THE NOMINATION BECAUSE THE DELEGATES WILL VOTE IN THEIR NEOCONE BUTT BUDDIES... GO TO YOUR LOCAL GOP, FIND OUT WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO BECOME A DELEGATE. DON'T TELL THEM YOU SUPPORT RON PAUL.. IF YOU DO YOU WILL NOT BECOME A DELEGATE.. PLEASE GET ACTIVE! RON PAUL IN 08!

[lilid]

Ron Paul is a true MAN! Something we haven't seen in quite some time~

[onefodderunit]

Our Constitution

You are either for it - uncompromisingly, or you're with the terrorists.

[mikji]

nice troll

[onefodderunit]

Abe Foxman is a troll.

What did you think of the speech? Paul's, that is.

[Amhlair]

Yeah, Ron Paul is great, blah blah blah. But are a bunch of amateurs running his campaign?

I gave a contribution and would like to send another but I have a question that I sent them a MONTH ago and the finance manager has not bothered to reply so that I can send more money. He's busy, I'm sure. You know what, we're ALL busy and I can't get these amateurs to help me send them more money.

This campaign is lost.

[ldmdeasy]

Take it somewhere else dude

[charliegirl42]

Quit your whining and get off your ass! We have a real chance to take back our nation... and you want to piss and moan because you didn't get any attention?????

GET A CLUE YOURSELF, DUDE! Ron Paul is the man of the hour....get busy, get him elected, and you can enjoy A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN WHAT YOU GOT NOW....

[SIERRAHPBT]

whats your question...? your allowed 2300.00 by yourself or 4600.00 for a wife/husband. just send the money as long as your not over! gees!

[Amhlair]

Oh, is it that simple? Silly me. I thought I had a legitimate question. I should have asked you first.

[brantc]

GO Ron Paul in 2008.

[SIERRAHPBT]

you can't be this stupid??? are you???

[fucktheglobalelite]

ron paul 2008!

[filter1971]

Ron Paul is THE last chance for our republic. Please do whatever you can to spread the word about him. The American public is asleep at the wheel. If we fail in this election, we have no one to blame but ourselves. We are headed into a monarchy.

[Dakoota]

Unfortunately, King George and Prince Dick have already paved the way for the new Monarchy, without elections. You Americans were busy watching Janets tits poop out at the superbowl, Britneys shaved head, and poor little Paris' trip to prison to notice.

It's too late now...................not that there werent a million warnings out there....HUGE DAMN PITY

[kingmike679]

Yeah, you think so Dakoota? Wait until the elections. If they kill him the Patriot movement will move. If they steal the elections, the Patriot movement will move. They have already labeled people like me terrorists. Listen to what he has to say and how many are joining. No fear now. So STFU, and manage your own land and government.

[charliegirl42]

I'm sure the real patriots who won your freedom for you thought it was too late too. Read Patrick Henry's speeches...OOps... you were probably publicly skooled... didn't teach you those, huh??

[vojvodina89]

SERBIA+Montenegro is with you Ron Paul!!!

[Bluzeman13]

I like Ron Pauls politics, he's for running government to the letter of the U.S. Constitution, but quite frankly the Repugnicon party will not give RON PAUL the time of day let alone their political endorsment. Unless Ron Paul is willing to switch to Independent, you won't even get the oportunity to vote for him at all! The Repugs will endorse Romny or that mafia guy, Gulliani.

[xvleo]

Ron Pauls fine but just one question - what are the people on social security supposed to do - go away to die.... just like those who can't afford health care in the US?

[matrxmax]

What Ron paul proposes is an easing out of government dependency as a way of life, he is well aware this is not going to happen overnight, so he proposes phasing out unneeded government jobs programs for beaurocrats- i.e. paper pushers.

[tactix33]

Sorry but you won't make it to 2008... Shit is going to hit the fan this autumn.

[MrWood14]

Ron Paul is America's LAST chance folks...

[salter2008]

The only REAL CADIDATE Ron Paul in 2008!

[Vitacore]

You have my vote!

[BusterTaylor]

Ron Paul is a breath a fresh air. Yet he seems to support a government of, and by, but not for the people. He wants the re-creation of America into a collection of individuals, unaccountable to the greater value of America as a compassionate, self-sustaining entity. Staunch individualism does not feed or clothe us in our elderly years, only compassionate, organized, American government action does.

Where Ron Paul is lacking, Dennis Kucinich could take the lead.

[djtheepoch]

To Buster Taylors comment, The states would have to run those kinds of programs, which means no fed tax but a much higher state tax. But your state reps are much easier to hold accountable than your reps in Washington. That is why the feds were supposed to be so limited in the first place.

[candiduscorvus]

...what in the world is "compassionate, organized, American government", much less action of the same? I don't think I've ever encountered or even heard of such a creature.

Individualism is exactly what a free society needs. Collectivism fails.

[klabotr3]

A compassionate government is a conflict in terms. One individual can do more for the elderly than a whole building full of bureaucrats.

[ONYERNOSE]

Make sure that Ron Paul is well protected because if he does start looking like he could win, you can be sure that certain people will be making plans to have a lone gunman, nutcase to take him out!

[Mark72188]

Or like the other hundreds of political activists over the past 40 years, who all died from "suicide" by being shot in the head.....Our current government is crooks living in castles.

[MartyA2816]

We need a big change now! Ron Paul seems like the man for the job! He has my vote!

[mtross70]

this is a real president!

[cslade1]

Needs some more crowd shots! I am trying to find a video of this that shows we had more here than voted in the straw poll.

[riceowlex]

Wish I'd been there. I heard that this was a VERY SUCCESSFUL event! The NAU is real. The TTC, Trans Texas Corridor is real they are part of the same package. These elected traitors , Perry, Bush Cheney should all be put in prison!

[cattleprods911]

Thanks for uploading this. RP was awesome as always. An honest man in a not so honest era.

[courseB]

thanks for what you did record. RP08!

[milican]

I did not have enough memory on my digital camera to record the second half of the speech. I did see several other guys with cameras there though. Hopefully, we will see their videos on YouTube soon.

[REKCUFAERUOY]

Where' s the other half. Are you posting Video 2?

I thought this was great.
