[gravelin08]

Mr. Gravel is our LION of politics. He ROARS! Thank goodness!!! Why do you think people put lions out in front of their houses? TO PROTECT THEM from harm/evil. SUPPORT THE LION!!!

[gravelin08]

Oops! I meant to say "statues of lions"... :)

[gravelin08]

Choose the Grandfather of your country wisely. It is no coincidence that during this time of great transition, one has returned to guide. Which river? The murderous present course of destruction (McCain); a trip back to the past to the dead Constitution (Paul); an adventure into the future with respect for human life and our planet the paramount concern (Mike Gravel). You CAN decide if you make the effort.

"Our three branches of government have become like an unstable chair, a three-legged chair. The founders could not have envisioned how much money and special interests would corrupt the political process. Giving us Americans legislative power will put forth the fourth leg of our stool and make it stable." -Mike Gravel

commenting on an awesome mike vid

[55NarutoYagami55]

Gravel uploaded a short video about the economy a little while ago :)

5/5 (is what I rated this video days ago)

[PhillyForGravel]

nevermind. we need almost 14,000 comments to get to the top of the "this week" honors for comments, and 300,000 to get to the top of all time, but 4,000 to get to the top of today

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

PhillyForGravel: Save your energy for his next video. It should be out sometime tonight. The filibuster will work better on a new video.

[PhillyForGravel]

we could get 40 people commenting 100 times and we would reach the top

[PhillyForGravel]

if we got 50 people commenting 100 times a day we would get to the #1 spot. also, we cou

[PhillyForGravel]

that would also get us near the top of the most discussed for this week list for all videos. if we got 25 people commenting 100 times a day, we would be in the top 5 probably

[PhillyForGravel]

if 20 people commented 50 times in the next day we would get to the top of the most commented for news and politics list for this week

[PhillyForGravel]

we need hundreds of thousands of comments to get on top of the most commented for all time list

[PhillyForGravel]

we need to get thousands of more comments in order to get to the #1 spot for today, this week, this month, and/or all time

[PhillyForGravel]

we need to get up to 361 comments by the next time youtube updates the honors in order to get to #44.

[PhillyForGravel]

by filibustering, i mean commenting a lot in order to get the video some honors

[PhillyForGravel]

no one else is filibustering with me!

[PhillyForGravel]

let's start filibustering every new gravel video from famous people on youtube (like gravel2008 and rx2008), and anything featured on the gravel2008 channel

[PhillyForGravel]

i know i am

[PhillyForGravel]

anyone going to do it?

[PhillyForGravel]

let's start filibustering on the new rx2008 gravel video

[CillaF1]

I can hear the ripple effect.

You guy's rock!

[PhillyForGravel]

i added a video, even though it's outdated. it's the mass donation day one

[PhillyForGravel]

if you have any old videos, you can make it so that they are responses to this. that might make it so this gets an honor for number of video responses

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Any idea when the next video is coming out? I took the day off of work and nada.

[ChannelMikeG]

oh crap, PA told me it wouldn't be until this evening (at least 6 EST). I'll have to see if I can get a specific time from him this afternoon.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Actually that still works out ok for me, I work 2nd shift.

[PhillyForGravel]

in a lot of cases the space between the ranks is very small (a few comments), so if we keep doing this we could get very highly ranked

[PhillyForGravel]

like this

[PhillyForGravel]

let's keep commenting

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

#45 - Most Discussed (This Week) - News & Politics.

[ChannelMikeG]

hehe we got #45 most discussed last night

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

REALLY?! That rocks.

[igoofonu]

i'm going to make the best video so i can win that contest!! :)

[CillaF1]

Wow! You guy's trippled the comments in a matter of hours. That's dedication.

Go Gravel!!!

[ChannelMikeG]

Yeah, we're gonna do a comment filibuster tomorrow on the new Gravel video. This was just a test run. You in?

[CillaF1]

You bet!

[CinderellaMike]

I love it ! Count me in.

Gravel 2008 !!!

[ChannelMikeG]

And that marks the end of Nader's foreword to Citizen Power. Tomorrow, I plan to go through Chapter 1: "Now It's the Citizen's Turn". Be sure to participate in the comment filibuster for the new video tomorrow.

[ChannelMikeG]

"According to Cicero, that definition is the following: "Freedom is participation in power." This is the key element that is launching Senator Gravel into one state after another with his proposals. And that could be the mantra for Mike Gravel's 2008 campaign."

--Ralph Nader

[smh2224]

Everyone should also post all of their videos as a video response. What do you think?

[ChannelMikeG]

Yeah, we've done it before and it worked. Why not? I think I'll post my videos tomorrow.

[haveanopenmind]

hey guys, whats going on tommorrow? fill me in

[smh2224]

A Gravel style fillibuster of Mike's new video tomorrow. Commenting on the video constantly to move the new video up to the top of the page!

[PoliticalAnalysis]

When the new video goes up tomorrow, there's a comment filibuster. Commenting, discussion, etc. in the thousands is the goal.

You in?

[smh2224]

Excellent, unfortunately I have to work all day tomorrow, and have a final on Friday morning. I'll see what I can do to help out...

[smh2224]

Wow, I've apparently missed out on a lot of commenting!

[ChannelMikeG]

Yeah, this was a test run for a comment filibuster tomorrow. The more people we have, the better.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I guess the refresh rate is at two hours that's handy info.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

PA: No problem. Tommorow. I'll be calling out sick from work.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Took two hours to get where we are. With more people we could get a thousand comments in less than an hour. That would utterly pwn Chris Crocker's useless ass.

[PoliticalAnalysis]

I agree. Sorry I wasn't helping more, was out to dinner.

[BamaGravelian]

ah ok got it, sounds good

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Your not kidding. Look down the list of people who've commented on Gravel's past videos invite them, if you have subs/friends invite them too.

[ChannelMikeG]

well in about the time it took to do this

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

BamaGravellian: Just sent you a PM buddy.

[ChannelMikeG]

If there 10 people, we could a 1000 in no time.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Tommorow's looking like the day.

[ChannelMikeG]

I pretty much went though the Foreword to Citizen Power. Maybe I could start on "Now It's the Citizen's Turn" tomorrow?

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I'm glad I turned the volume off on my computer I'm already getting a headache from staring at the computer screen for so long.If I had to contend with the sound too I think I'd loose my marbles more than I already have.

[ChannelMikeG]

looks like the comments refreshed to 302

[BamaGravelian]

no I haven't gotten a PM yet

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

See you then, for now though, and I know it's off topic I'd like to talk about the wonderful world of Spam....

[BamaGravelian]

All right tomorrow it is.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I wonder what talking points we should use any ideas?

[ChannelMikeG]

"What Senator Gravel is conveying to the country is a wisdom embodied in the definition of freedom by Marcus Cicero over 2,000 years ago in ancient Rome. That prominent orator and lawyer defined freedom in a way that forces us to confront its denial or its substance--not its rhetorical flourish by manipulative politicians indentured to commercial and corporate interest."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

BamaGravellian not to break up your flow but did you get a PM from PA?

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

BTW ChannelMikeG...that Amelie video did suck.

[BamaGravelian]

"It has to challenge our willingness to engage in a deliberative electoral process where people are given a chance to inteact with the candidates, to propose their own agendas, and to meet with them all over the country as they campaign. There will be no more manipulation of the voters into spectators, and there will be no more simple viewing the electoral process as entertainment funded by commerical interests and beyond the range of effective political action on the part of the voters."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Tomorrow we start again. Make sure to check your PM's to find out why.

[ChannelMikeG]

"Senator Gravel's National Initiative for Democracy is the most fundamental proposal I have ever seen or read about by any candidate in any major party in the United Sates. It is not a proposal that be reduced to "sound bites" on TV. It cannot be compressed in seven seconds and 42 nanoseconds."

[BamaGravelian]

"In recognizing this, Senator Gravel has convened conferences of some of the finest constitutional law experts in the country. He has engaged them in a fundamental debate regarding the pleanary power of the American people to enact their own laws, rooted in the Declaration of Independence, a juridicial document, not just a protest, the US Constitution, the Federalist Papers."

[BamaGravelian]

"For over a decade, given the failures of elected politicians, Senator Gravel has been engaged in some exraordinary research and consultations with leading constitutional law experts about the need to enact another check to the faltering checks and balances--namely, the National Initiative for Democracy--a propossed law that empowers the people as lawmakers."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

This is in fact the United States of Haliburton. With a new Clinton administration we would go BACK to a United States of Phizer.

[ChannelMikeG]

"If money is the index of electoral politics, Senator Gravel rightly believes our democracy is gone. We're supposed to have a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. There can be no democracy if it is a government of the Exxons, by the General Motors, for the DuPonts."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I just scrolled down the list of comments, it's pretty funny but we haven't even made a new page yet.

[BamaGravelian]

"With their political appointments, their thousands of PACs, and with their 35,000 lobbyists--if you don't make this a major issue, it will affect our economy and our electoral reforms, and we will be avoiding a critical issue and engaging in rhetorical charades, slogans, cliches, and self-censorship."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Barack Obama's primary campaign contributers are JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Hillary Clinton voted to authorize a war crime.

[ChannelMikeG]

yeah the rating would fly out of the roof it that were possible.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Barack Obama voted to authorize the PATRIOT act and reauthorized it 5x.

[BamaGravelian]

"These giant corporations see no boundaries to their hegemony, to their greed, to their abandonment of our country, to the control of communities, to the infiltration of elections, and to the control of every department and agency in the US government including the Department of Labor."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Mike Gravel's policies are Constitutionally consistent.

[ChannelMikeG]

"Senator Gravel understands what very few candidates are willing to understand and demonstrate publicly. Now more than ever, this country needs a shift in power from the few to the many. He understands that we must make the domination of just about everything by giant corporations a major issue."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Too bad you can't rate the video every time you hit the refresh button.

[BamaGravelian]

yeah, I think the "choice" is becoming clearer with the "top-tier".

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I like Ralph Nader too.

[ChannelMikeG]

yeah and this also helps to gauge the rate

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Has anyone else noticed that there are no anti-war candidates in the so called "top tier"?

[BamaGravelian]

"It's almost like a corporation: What is the quarterly report? Money from commercial interests, such as the drug industry, the oil industry, the nuclear industry, the auto industry, the banking industry, and insurance industrie, with their 10,000 PACs, comes heavily in terms of quid pro quos. They are rarely specific about what they want in return.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Agreed but I think it's a good litmus test to start it here and see what if any effect there is and to get a sense of the refresh rate on YouTube's server.

[ChannelMikeG]

I'm using this as a practice run to see what happens.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Good, I think it fits.

[ChannelMikeG]

it will be more effective on a new video

[BamaGravelian]

oh yeah definitely

[ChannelMikeG]

"Senator Gravel knows that elections have been commercialized to the point where the very media expectation of candidates is determined by how much money they've raised in every quarter."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

If this works out I think we should do it again on Mike next video. What do you think?

[BamaGravelian]

I'm just going through the foreward in Citizen Power.

[BamaGravelian]

"More recently, Senator Gravel was opposed to the War in Iraq even before this quagmire and crimnal endeavor began. he opposes military action against a completely United States-surrounded Iran. he understands the inequities in the Israeli occupation of Palestine."

[ChannelMikeG]

"As a senator, he became known for releasing the controversial Pentagon Papers at an ad hoc committee performance. He was early against the Vietnam war. He was early in advocating diplomatic relations with China."

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

The refresh maybe on a twenty four hour cycle, I could be wrong though.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I'm back...What I miss?

[BamaGravelian]

"Throughout his work in public service, Senator Gravel has understood that politics is about power--who has it, who should have, who misuses it, and how it can be used the betterment of human life here and around the world. He not only understandds, as the cliche has it, he also has walked the walk."

[ChannelMikeG]

Nader's Foreword:

"Like a fresh wind coming from Alaska, the state he represented as a US Senator from 1969 to 1981, Mike Gravel is determined to start a debate about the fundamentals of democracy."

[ChannelMikeG]

All right, I'll start with the Foreword

[BamaGravelian]

so it's been hour so far and still no refresh...?

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I'll be back in a few minutes. Nature calls.

[BamaGravelian]

ah, skip the acknowledgments

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I don't care at all about Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

[BamaGravelian]

"With respect ot the original Citizen Power, my thanks to the wonderful women on my staff, whose abilities and efficiency made it possible for me to find the time to write a book without diminishing the effectiveness office:....,"I don't feel like typing the names...

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I live near MG's hometown.

[ChannelMikeG]

I think too much other stuff goes onto for them to care.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

How long has it been since I typing this now an hour? Judging by my bladder I would say about that.

[BamaGravelian]

hmm I think I've seen something like this before

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I wonder what YouTube would make of what we're trying to do here? Would they care? Has it been tried before?

[ChannelMikeG]

Books seldom are written without a great deal of assistance and encouragement from friends and associates. This book is no exception.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

There should have been a question mark after my last comment.

[BamaGravelian]

Citizen Power

[ChannelMikeG]

Here's a typing exercise

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Anyone know how often the server refreshes or how many comments I've put in.

[YouChoose4Realz]

[BamaGravelian]

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Sigh....Elf needs cigarette badly.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Still at 112 comment. WTF?

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

14x. No more "unluck".

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Coffee and bladder/colon do not mix well, especially for long term projects like this one.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

13 is an unlucky number. Good thing I'm not superstitious.

[BamaGravelian]

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Nietzsche is my favorite philosopher.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

How long does it take for youTube's server to refresh any idea?

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

12x. YouTube's server hates me.

You said it YouChoose4Realz. Still here with volume off on my computer.

[ChannelMikeG]

[YouChoose4Realz]

YOUTUBE GRAVEL FILIBUSTER IS ON!!!

[ChannelMikeG]

It might not be imperialism, but...I've think I've heard it a THOUSAND TIMES!

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

[ChannelMikeG]

[ChannelMikeG]

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Make that 7x.

[YouChoose4Realz]

both of my friends' commenting limits have been exceeded!

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

I've already encountered that damned comment exceeded thing like 6 times now, it's messing with my flow.

[GH0ST1NTHEMACH1NE]

Glad you liked it.
