  • i came

  • AND WOW WHAT ENERGY AT HIS AGE, WHAT DOES HE EAT ? :))

  • @ashwadhwani hemp hearts :)

  • This man is such a simple genius! The right answer has been used before. The specifics of the scenario look slightly different. Technology has changed the play space government is working with, but the concepts of government that failed in the past are being proved to still fail today.

    The government concepts that succeeded in the past still have a greater chance of success today! Ron Paul 2012!

  • Tea Party= garbage

  • Ron Paul....last chance...he's not getting any younger!!

  • PLEASE Vote in Ron Paul! From the Uk!

  • @DavidKWegley I approve.... Ron Paul is still a nut though

  • Vote on him guys then you/we all will have a better future!

    God bless Ron Paul!

    -a European

  • "The Money Masters - Full" please seethis video. Ron Paul 2012!

  • "The Money Masters - Full" ,please search this video

  • "money master" is a epic video on economics, is a masterpiece by mister bill still, please see this video is a bit long, but it is good as gold.  Ron Paul 2012!

  • RON PAUL MONEYBOMB ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, 2011. PLEASE DONATE AND SPREAD THE WORD - AUGUST 20, 2011

  • Ron Paul bother, your the best thing ever that has come to the people. you got my vote..You can count on it!!!

  • definition of elitism: insertion of goldman sachs into YOUR white house.

  • i hope Ron Paul don't turn out to be another Obama :(

  • @democratsaresmart clearly you have gotten your hands on some of that opium from russia

  • @JMS13579 I AM A BAD MOTHER, I KNOW , I SMOKE TO DAMAGE MY LUNGS AND I DRINK TO DAMAGE MY LIVER AND I LIKE RON PAUL COS HE SAID ITS OK IF I DO DRUGS, I WANNA DO DRUGS AND I WANT TO DIE FROM OVERDOSE AND I WANT GOVERNMENT TO STAY OUT OF MY BIZ !

  • @democratsaresmart hmmm...he never said its ok to do drugs but it is up to you to do them, not up to the government. Don't twist Dr Ron Pauls words. He is also pro life but he says that its up to the state and the people to decide something like that. He has his own views but above all he protects the constitution.

  • @HMCINC1 ASK CONSTITUTION TO CREATE JOBS, ASK LIBERTY TO LOWER THE GAS PRICE , ALSO ASK AMERICAN FLAG TO PAY UR BILLS, DUDE WAKE UP ITS JUST RON PAUL WT=RITING IN HIS HEAD THE GUY IS A LOOSER, RU FUCKING BLIND?

  • @democratsaresmart Pathetic response. A looser...ask a flag to pay your bills....ask constitution for jobs and a unicorn for money and a fairy lady for fire powers. Get a grip and get a caps lock button that works.

  • @democratsaresmart Maybe you dont understand the fact that the federal reserve is a private banking firm and they manipulate all these pirces and even manipulate depressions at will. If we get rid of these guys and big government, the jobs will come, we will create them for ourselves. The Money masters manipulate the market for profit and power, they propagand wars for profit. Watch the american dream on youtube

  • @democratsaresmart Also look up Jack otto; forbidden knowledge. The money master, Arron Russo freedom to fascism. Then do some research to check if its correct.

  • @democratsaresmart Real men like you I'm sure hahaha.  "Real men" like you are so insecure and afraid its embarrassing to the real men. Just let it go, tough guy. You aren't going to hurt anyone with your caps lock button.

  • @HMCINC1 dude i am a women, duh

  • @democratsaresmart Duh? Like I was suppose to get that somehow from what you wrote? Everything I said still applies....just use that big brain of yours and replace "him" with "her". I see you found the caps lock key lol.

  • @HMCINC1 TRYING TO BE SMART WITH ME CUNT? HERE IS $ I B QUESTION, ASK RON PAUL HOW IS HE PLANNING TO CREATE JOBS, CAPS LOCK RETARD DO U THINK I DO IT FOR U? U DO THINK THAT UR SPECIAL, UR NOT COS U SUPPORT PUSSY RON PAUL IS PUSSY!

  • @democratsaresmart Hahaha....ok ok. calm down. To answer your "$ 1 B Question". Before you start asking questions like this you might want to actually know about politics. The governments ACTUAL role in our lives should only be to protect Liberty, freedom and the people, thats it! Its not their job to give you anything!! That is true freedom. Stop being so weak and blaming someone like Ron Paul. Your dictator Obama is your problem right now. Get out of youtube and go learn something.

  • @democratsaresmart

    LOL! Democratsaresmart can't spell. How ironic.

  • @brendanmcwilliams RON PAUL'S ASSLICKER, WHILE U FOLLOW MY SPELLING , CHINSESE PUT THEIR KIDS INTO PROGRAMMING AND ENGENERING, OF COURSE UR KIDS WILL TAKE ARTS!

  • @democratsaresmart "Put" being the key word, do democrats still believe free will?

  • Damn. This is NOT a canned, pre-processed, TelePrompTer'd stump speech.

    Barry Soebarkah (he never did change his name back to "Barack Hussein Obama II" after being adopted by Lolo Soetoro and becoming an Indonesian citizen as a child, did he?) couldn't address these issues on the best day of his foreign-born unconstitutional little life.

  • Everyone who voted for change in 2008 must be disappointed, and should vote for Ron Paul in 2012. That will be real change!!! Something this country desperately needs.

  • I have that same bumper sticker!!! DON'T STEAL, THE GOVERNMENT HATES COMPETITION!!

  • He wants a strong national defence, but at the same time he dont want to pay taxes???? Who is going to pay for the strong national defence?

  • @jorisewout : Yeah he wants a strong national defenSe. That means strong, secure borders, and soldiers on the HOMEFRONT. Not standing armies in every corner of the world serving corporate interests and political means. The way to do this is to cut the size of government and end bloated, runaway budgets. There will be more than enough left over even without the federal income tax, the IRS, the Federal Reserve, and every other criminal bureaucracy.

  • @rmed30Economic wealth is what makes the US so powerful and also able to finance a powerful army. Where do you think most of that wealth originates from? Corporations, yes. Serving corporate interest is also in your interest, if you like to keep living in the most powerful country in the world. Believe me a local bakery is not able to reign in as much money on a international scale as a big corporation.

  • @jorisewout : I'm not arguing that we should not have corporations. Please don't put words in my mouth. What I'm saying is that the people who run corporations should not be dictating government policy. Especially in the arms industry, which has turned our government into a revolving door where lobbyists ultimately decide military policy. And if federal taxes are so important, then YOU tell me why GE earned BILLIONS in profit and payed 0$ in taxes. That's right..0, nothing, squat, fuckall

  • @jorisewout: The idea is to keep taxes at a minimal, effectively cutting off the blood supply to the tumor that is government so that it can do no more harm. Do that and the federal government will have more than enough money to do what the founding fathers intened it to do: Uphold the constitution and protect OUR borders. Not the borders of Iraq, Libya, Kosovo, United Arab Emerats, Korea, Japan, Germany, Afghanistan, Eygypt, Phillipines, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Singapore, Thailand etc.etc

  • @jorisewout : But you probably think having our military sprawled out all over the globe is "just dandy". You probably think it is our God given responsibllity, ney RIGHT to meddle in the affairs of all these sovereign states. That is 180 degrees away from what the founders of this nation intended. I don't think that you understand that our imposing military presence around the world actually makes you LESS safe. Keep buying the lie that this is how its supposed to be done

  • @jorisewout: And pretty soon we won't have to concerned about being the most powerful nation on earth. Do you think we can just keep spending, spending, and spending ad infinitum?? That's insanity. The biggest threat to national security is the economy. And the current system is completely unsustainable. Do you think that there is some magic fairy dust that keeps us impervious from absolute bankruptsy? The Soviets, British Empire, and Romans probably all thought the same way you do.

  • The man hates the government and says it's out of control yet he want's to join it. The country is in massive debt but he doesn't want taxes. There is only one good word to describe this man, hypocritical.

    P.S. This is the first time I can remember a Republican complaining about lack of power in congress... remember Bush.

  • @defaultdrop: Maybe you should look more into Ron Paul bf you label him a hypocrite. He wants to serve the public and govern in the most MINIMAL capacity possible. You know the way the constitution dictates. The debt is out of control bc we are funding pointless illegal military ventures overseas that are putting my life, your life, and the lives of innocent civilians around the world in harm's way. The other reason we are in debt is bc spending has gone rampant with the governmnet

  • @defaultdrop stealing money from you and giving it to the military industrial complex, corporate cronies and needless social programs. We don't need government telling us how to live. The only thing we need them to do is protect our borders, maintain infrastructure, and uphold the constitution. That is it! Contrary to what you may believe income tax does not generate the majority of federal revenue. The government will just have to make do on the 50000 other forms of taxes imposed on us.

  • @defaultdrop : So many people are brainwashed into thinking that we somehow need the IRS. Or we need to make permanent bases around the world. Realize that YOUR hard earned dollars are being robbed by strong armed bandits. We don't WANT these leaches in Washington any more! We dont NEED them! We can make this country secure and great again and it wont require a dangerous, hulking bureaucracy to do so . RP is the ONLY candidate not bought and sold by corporate interests. Give him a chance.

  • lol! thats the reason why people think americans are stupid. The people just applaud without knowing what he says. Government doesn't work without taxes (look at greece - No one payed taxes there which caused national bankruptcy). So when they cut taxes or even abolish taxes, they have to get the money somewhere else -> example: save money at education. The level of education from people goes down. People get dumb. Dumb people vote for dumb government.

    Ron Paul 2012!

  • sieg heil!

  • Ron Paul Debate Day Money Bomb!!! May 5, 2011

  • @NiceDoggy7777777 Not yet.

    It basically controls the economy. It coins money, and controls the money flow into the economy.

  • I know for a fact he doesn't want to create a perfect society, just a free one. If we come to the conclusion of perfection it would be through unilateral thought, which is night impossible, but still preferred over someone else's forced "Utopian" society over threat of prison or at the end of a rifle barrel. It's all relative.

  • Ron Paul is kind of like the Right-Wing version of Karl Marx. They are both incredibly intelligent men who only want the best for the world. That's why it's so easy to get behind their policies. It's only when there's a good devil's advocate that you can start to see the flaws in their arguments.

  • @Grensley

    Explain? How is personal liberty, states rights, and stopping the rapid inflation (check the 1913 dollar vs. Today) anything like being a Marxist? It's as poler opposite as you can get. One is complete gov't dependence and other is the opposite.

  • @techmosis I meant more along the lines of: They're both intelligent, charismatic extremists. You can really feel that both of them believe what they're saying, unlike most of the bozos in government with carefully choreographed responses. They both have this vision of a harmonious, hard-working society that is simply not sustainable.

  • @Grensley But at that point we can start comparing politicians to Hitler in terms of speaking & enthusiasm and forget that you're comparing some one to Hitler. It's a touchy subject but your view is appreciated and not misunderstood with your added context.

  • @techmosis It's the concept of an absolutely perfect, compromise-less system that is flawed.

  • Tea Party is the wrong forum for Ron Paul.

    He should be in The White House.

  • "Lets repeal 1913 we'd all be better off" OH! lol I thought he said 19th and 13th amendments I was like huh! But no 1913 is when the 16ths Amendment was passed.

  • @wavepsychic no, it's the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. He's saying 1913 in context to the Fed.

  • tea party ron paul. maher likes paul, hates tea party. huh? hypocrite.

  • RonPaul2008dotcom my msn in profile! Ron Paul's Tea Party Speech

  • All of these "hot topics" they debate about - abortion, gay marriage, etc - are all distractions from the larger picture. We are all slaves under the federal reserve central bank and cooperations. People have their "beliefs" and "traditions" and cannot be convinced of rational thinking in regards to the current "hot topics." I say we move on and educate the public on how our current economic system is indeed an oligarchy and, by no means, a republic.

  • I am of the mind that the system, as designed by the "founding fathers", is fundamentally flawed (i.e. the original government denied equal citizen status to over 50% of the population, excluding: women, blacks and first peoples [native Americans]). The founding principles are the causes that have created the effects we are facing now: economic collapses every 70 years; constant wars; class conflicts; civil inequalities; obsessive imperialism. If any good can come from this: Ron Paul/Ralph Nader

  • Back in the 2008 primaries, I was a McCain supporter, in 2012, if Ron Paul runs he's got my support.

  • Pause at 0:46 for epic face.

  • Unfortunately Palin had to make an embarrassment of the movement.

  • We could do with someone like this in the UK. There seems to be a political vacuum in parliment and an omnipresent cynicism that pervades throughout British society that all politcians are the same and take orders from the banks. Seeing as they are currently disgracing Obama it may be time for somthing fresh in US politics. Wheather or not Ron Paul is un-corruptable remains to be seen but I'd say give him a go and see if democracy actualy works.

  • Yeah! Let's get rid of the public sector open the gates for the corporate wolves, deregulation, deregulation!! There's lots of liberty and freedom in the new economic jungle (predators too), and plenty of room on the losers bench!

  • troll

  • this guy wants to be president? fine let him be president & if he dosen't change anything in america then deport his ass to china..he say's i can do better lets see it fuck wad & if you dont do anything all you teabaggers can join him in china..all talk & no doing what a fucking nigger bitch

  • @bitemebig100 well this comment is just so intelligent. You clearly have no knowledge of what Ron Paul stands for. All talk and no doing? do you have any idea what Ron Paul has been speaking about for decades? well let me tell you it is something we have not seen in Washington for a century.

  • Where there are solutions, there are new problems.

  • ron paul diserves the nobel piece prize people!!

  • this guy should have been President.

  • @captaindiesalot Still got another chance in 2012!

  • @captaindiesalot He will be President!

  • @captaindiesalot He is about to be! RON PAUL 2012!

  • @captaindiesalot - It is still possible. Vote for him and urge other Patriots to vote for him as well.

  • @njiuma I have tried and every one of y facebook friends hates me ...these people are blinder than we know..Ron Paul is the obvious choice but nobody seems to get it unless your like us here who search the truth ..these other ppl won't see it on TV AND WON'T LOOK FOR IT AND WON'T HEAR SHIT i HAVE TO SAY..i AM GETTING WEARY

  • @julieshie - Fight the Good Fight. Rest, Eat, Pray, Stay in the Word, get your energy and go for it! You're not alone.

  • the difference in audience participation between ron paul people and obama people is that obama people cheer because they like his play on words or the sound of his speech crescendos. ron paul people cheer because they're refreshed and energized to hear a man tell it like it is. one is a smokescreen, a facade, and "change" is simply a word. the other is the real deal, where "change" is not just a word, it's a concrete idea.

    ron paul 2012

  • @wunderbeast that is an excellent observation.

  • who the fuck is this faggot?? looks like a nazi cunt who like to get ass fucked by nigger trannies...OBAMA RULES !!!.

  • @bitemebig100 , Have fun in the breadline waiting for yer crumbs twit. When the dollar crashes I hope we find all u idiots with "Obama 08" stickers and  laugh you into obscurity.

  • @Wonglow wow ,you dont know shit just like this fuck nut,,honey i own 175 acers of land & 125 heads of cattle ,so i'll be just fine eating steak while your eating your wife's cock...fucking dumbass nigger

  • @bitemebig100 So you are an Obama supporting racist? Obvious trolling.

  • @Vengrence i'm not a racist you fucking wetback cunt.

  • @bitemebig100 I would recommend you re-evaluate your speech then.

  • @bitemebig100 Your just another fat lazy slob living on the rest of the country's' economic decline, who not only is repulsive but has the vernacular of club wielding barbarian.. I pray for your kind.. Because it is you who is to blame for this unjust world we live in

  • @Vatoaztecas deal with it handjob,if you dont like it get the fuck out of america bitch.

  • @bitemebig100 Your ignorance is astounding..

  • @Vatoaztecas thank you i try my best

  • @bitemebig100 you must eather be no older then 10 or just a fucking idiot

  • @DadoPennsylvania eat me beaner,you have no right to talk to me i'm way better & your just a ass licking wetback so go fuck your tranny mom before you get an ass kicking bitch

  • Ron Paul Rocks!!

  • The heckler should STFU!!

  • @kristopheraugust I am entirely too intelligent to read a full book of hers. a few pages at most was enough to be sure. I wont answer you again unless you show improvement

  • @kristopheraugust and if you mean Ayn Rand, then I know plenty about her to say the same about her. I lack the vocabulary to describe the exact nature of her depravity but her writings are less than worthless. No sound mind would value her above 0.

  • @kristopheraugust I don't presume to speak about what I do not know. I only commented on your obvious incoherent vacuous statements.

  • @kristopheraugust you should spend more time ensuring your sentences are intelligible. probably your thoughts too.

  • @kristopheraugust so survival of the fittest, if you're down on your luck you die. that kind of thing?

    each man for himself, no society, rule of the gun

  • @kristopheraugust that was a rather vacuous statement

  • @kristopheraugust no I haven't. any good?

  • so many like Ron Paul because they don't see his deranged side. siding with the teabaggers here should make that clearer.

    he's right about many things but calling taxes categorical theft is just wrong. using tax money to fight wars based on lies is theft and much worse. but making roads, school, hospitals for tax money is not theft. that's sensible society. do you really want to build your own roads for your own money? that's what Ron Paul stands for

  • @DanFrederiksen If the federal government builds roads, hospitals, or schools (except for post roads) then the constitution is violated and taxation is theft. If the States or local governments do this, it is not theft, because they retained the right to do so and did not delegate that power to the federal government.

  • Ron Paul keeps me hopeful! Race has nothing to do with the Tea Party...the lame stream media wants to keep us divided.

    Stop spending and stop printing fiat currency. Stop undeclared wars. Stop the Fed. Stop the Nanny state.

    Stop over taxing. Stop hurting little business'. A wealthy America is a Generous America! A wealthy America will feed and aid and clothes all its brothers and sisters! And then the WORLD!

  • It boggles my mind when people write stuff like "Paul/Nader 2012." I get the feeling these people don't have the slightest clue what either of these guys stand for. They probably just hate the establishment and are willing to support whoever is not in the mainstream. Nader is a big government lib. Paul is exactly the opposite.

  • @ebeatworld who the hell would say that. nader wants a big green government and paul practically wants no government

  • ron paul is NOT telling the whole story

    watch: "911 Missing Links" "USS Liberty dead in the water" "Dancing Israelis on 911"

  • RON PAUL 2012!!!

  • @MrGmbswagchamp wrote "RON PAUL 2012" - right, he'll be 77 years old in 2012

  • @sfiorare so what if he is 77 years old.

  • @sniped101 - so he's going to lose miserably, again

  • @sfiorare so what. At least I can say I tried to CHANGE the way things are.

    I'm not going to be a democrat that asks for hand outs or some neocon that supports war. Which one are you?

  • @sniped101 - neither

  • Participate in the latest poll on Ronpaul.com and Vote "Yes" in answering the question "Should Ron Paul Run for President in 2012?". They want to reach 25,000 "Yes" votes, so go and do your part Ron supporters!! Ron Paul Revolution 2012!!

  • @Leftovervictim1991 thanks for the website info

  • Ron Paul seems to be the only person in Congress who tells it like it is and knows what to do.

  • In today's world, the only person that resembles our founding fathers' beliefs is Ron Paul. If you don't like Ron Paul, then you wouldn't like our founding fathers. With that said, hating Ron Paul is unAmerican plain and simple.

  • When I heard of Ron Paul, I was like this guy cannot be real, there needs to be a catch, I have not found it yet. Ron Paul.

  • sad he isn´t 100 years younger...

  • @AyaxTelemonio Don't worry, he has a son whose name is "Rand" and he has the same beliefs as his father. If we can't get Ron elected, I bet we could get Rand.

  • END The FED.

  • I admire this man so much, he has stones the size of boulders.

  • @riosleon13 Teabagger, racist, hatred. You can't help it, you were raised by intolerant idiots that taught you hatred instead of love and some of you call yourselves Christians. God is weeping.

  • lol he does a good guy YAY! thing from fable 8:14 thats awsome

  • If the repubs wont support Paul he should walk on them and run for the libertarians. Whatever party he runs for he will dominate. RON PAUL 2012!!!!

  • Besides, Paul will be president and not dictator or monarch, many of these things will take a while and move slowly, as they move we will be more able to judge. The alternatives are so terrible it's just hard to picture someone as obviously intelligent not rallying behind Paul and helping the movement, we need all we can get. : (

  • Without getting into all the specifics below, o can understand your dilemma Seward, but my answer would be, how can you not vote for him? At least with Paul, people like you who hold similar opinions would be able to voice those opinions and create communities, even live in one state geared more towards your ideals. That is far better than myriad restrictions squashing all. I would also mention that he follows the Austrian model which has proven sound.

  • I laugh at people who call congressman Paul names such as loon, nut or kook. For one, he's smarter than nearly every politician out there, 2 he's so down to earth, simple solutions to complex problems, he doesn't live in psychobabble world where words mean one thing one day and another thing the next day, 3 all he stands for and works toward is the true role of government, civil liberties, non interventionist foreign policy, the end of printing money out if thin air etc. Gee, how looney.

  • Ron Paul? Gag me with a spoon! What is the draw to this loon?

  • @TerrorWarrior5000 You are a clown.

  • @TerrorWarrior5000 Common sense.

  • Wow once again amazing. I named my new born after you Ron. Just hope he can become half the man you are.

  • Ron Paul saddens me, because half of what he says, I love, a quarter of what he says, I'm not sure about, and the other quarter I really don't agree with. How do you vote for someone who has a lot of good ideas, and some potentially really bad ones too?

  • @SewardsLesson NAME some of the things that you don't agree with. If you can't name them, then you're full of SHIT. You're the reason why this country is slowly and gradually turning into a FASCIST REGIME, and you don't even realize it. Have you ever been to Vietnam? The people there CANNOT speak up against the government and they'd get jailed or killed simply for speaking out! Doesn't that sound ridiculous to you?? Do you want this great nation to turn into that??!!!!

  • @thi711

    ok, first of all, let me respond to your post, then, in my next post, I will address your question.

    The first thing I want to say is: calm the fuck down. You're already calling me a fascist when you don't even know where I stand on any issues. You asked me to name some of the things I don't agree with, so give me a chance to do so before you attack me.

    There's no evidence that suggests we are going to lose our freedom of speech, so let that go, please...

  • @thi711

    Now, as to your demand for what I disagree with...

    One, I do believe that the market should abide by some laws and be policed somewhat.

    My main thing, though, is his belief in decentralized authority. He wants to take power away from central government and put it in the hands of the states. From my studies of historical governments and politics, I have come to recognize one basic principle (among many): decentralized authority is poison to a stable government....

  • @SewardsLesson Do you think that the government is somehow inherently more just or law-abiding than any individual/group? Policed by who or what exactly? The government is composed entirely of people. The market? The state? Those are abstractions. They're just people. What makes them any more inherently capable of policing us than we are?

  • @HuggumsMcgehee

    This is a difficult subject. I'm not sure where to start. This may take a few posts.

    Your question is essentially asking whether anarchy is better at policing than government. You would really have to assume that people would exhibit the same behavior toward each other if not compelled by the rule of law. I guess, on a purely theoretical basis everyone would have to have the same idea of what is right or wrong.....

  • @HuggumsMcgehee

    Additionally, on occasion, people would have to choose what is right over personal gain, provided they agree with you on what is right. You could argue that personal gain is right. For example, we both would agree that stealing is wrong (I assume), yet people do steal, that is a fact. Your question, as basic as it is, would take many posts to explore thoroughly.

  • @HuggumsMcgehee I think, though, that if you just consider all that you consider to be wrong, and also consider the fact that all those acts are indeed done, then I would say that that suggests that no, people are not indeed as capable of governing themselves as a government would be. Does this apply in the same way to the market? I think so. I don't advocate complete control of all aspects, but where some practices can cause harm to someone at another's gain......
