  • I think the whole political system needs changing scrap congress and setup a new body that actually cares about humanity instead of money, fedral banks should go they support all the wrong things and they pay people to make it worse !!

  • hey dan , i dont live in america but in Holland.

    well i can tell you not a lott of people of my country agree with our politics.

    my problem is that im 14 years old and i will not be someone listend to like the adult.

    BTW i dont want to be a politician because i don't like the work, so what can i do to help make my country a better politically lead country

  • Dan your the 82%

  • Comment removed

  • Pause at 3:33 :D

  • I can't run for congress, I shouldn't, I'm Canadian.

  • Less Federal Government & more power at state level control. First we need to completely gut WH, Senate & House of Representatives. The Tea Party has awakened a sleeping majority & they will speak in 2012.

  • I have the capacity

  • please call it usa not america I am kind of unconfotable with you calling america just usa when there are countries like mexico canada and all south america that are part of america

  • Yes, The system is broken. We have a way to fix it. Goggle GOOOH.

  • Error?

  • I think that I'll run for office! Oh wait I'm 13 Darn it

  • I think that I'll run for office! Oh wait I'm 13. Darn it.

  • Dan are you a Liberal or a Concervative? As of right now?

  • Dan Brown run for Congress. Not Joking here. If there is somebody I know that is politically aware and knows how to use the new media is YOU!

  • 5:44 "We need a Congress as diverse as America itself."

    Great words, Dan.

  • @volubleperspicacious needs to be a famous quote. The Dan Brown Army can make it happen, so why don't they lol

  • @volubleperspicacious We need a less powerful federal government, more state control, localized laws

  • @volubleperspicacious the spirit of democ.

  • Dan Brown for Congress

  • IMO , I prefer politicians to be experts in governing, business and international relations etc.. not science . because thats not really what they need to do.

  • For some reason the current Congress situation brings Star Wars cannon to mind: we elect a bunch of officials that we ultimately hate, try really hard to turn things around, but they abuse their power in order to stay in power. Fuck yeah Star Wars (although this is kind of outside of the 6 movies).

  • first of all i want to say i'm just a kid ; what's congress?

  • @xemordnilapx A group of elected officials from a single racial and economic demographic creating a large amount of rules that have never been actually read by anyone. These rules affect a large group of people who they have never met and don't care about. (This is from urban dictionary)

    Congress is the part of the government that makes laws.

  • I looked at your video last week and told some freinds about it.. today I looked back at it and the comments;WOW, so many are just hot steam, that I guess has to be let loose before they blow.... not sure your idea would work but maybe if we could get back some form of election reform, even though it is going backwards with last Supreme Court flood gate Citizens United opened. But you are a thoughtful player in the discussion... keep up the good work ..I do believe I will subscribe.

  • Youre better than half my college professors...no...3/4..

  • you use big words haha, but ur still awesomee

  • @anafterword Don't you dare slander The Founders. Their views are 100% diametrically opposed to the socialist desires of liberals today. They were only "liberals" in the sense that they wanted something different than gov't oppression. The instant they succeeded, they became conservatives. And THAT is what the goal is, return to TRUE American values. Not big brother nanny state socialism. This society sucks today and it's all the hippies fault. It's truly a disgrace.

  • Once again you fixate on this lie of helping the corporations at the expense of the people. This lie is born of communistic jealousy. You seek to punish the successful when you get right down to it and nothing more than that.

    Nobody has ever gotten a job from a poor person. You can not grow an economy from the ground up. And above all... IT'S NOT THE GOV'T PLACE TO BE TRYING.

    Want to help US workers? Support US companies, like GM. Don't force them into bankruptcy, like the messiah did.

  • @usquanigo

    Rush listener eh?

    I'm with ya.

  • @usquanigo What? Are the founding father infallible gods now? Their every idea a perfect doctrine to stand by, despite whatever circumstances may come along?

  • @HiacyntusZoilus They were far smarter than you could ever dream to be. They also understood history and human nature, and freedom. Everything demon-crats have done to promote the wellfare nanny-state has been encraochment upon freedom, totally a step in the wrong direction.

    The Founders were human, but America's best generation, and infinitely greater than any of you moonbats, Full Stop.

  • 1 word, TRANSPARENCY

    The internet can solve the problem of people behind curtained off by what the government is doing financially, socially and of course politically.

    BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, and this is where our ideas meet, we have to get people interested in politics rather than what media is pumping us with now (reality shows, fast entertainment making the attention span of the masses... not so massive......

  • Although I understand how the Democrat’s policy of “blame” works for a segment of the population who constantly thinks of themselves as victims, it’s not in any way productive. Something most kids learn in responsible learning environments.

  • @kuhioffxi So you deleted the last comment directed towards me because you realized it was bullshit right? lol..Think about your logic here..You're saying Obama is spending other peoples money on nothing important, just because he can. Um. Or not.

  • @TaZWhite I replied to the wrong one of your multiple nonsensical comments. Obama is making it up as he goes along… you think he had a plan for 3 years and just now decided he is –announcing- he is going to tell everyone this master plan? It’s not too late; you don’t have to be an idiot your entire life.

  • Im part of the 18%

  • Your bordering on treason... jking

  • problem is little man cant get to congress its the guy that has done stuff for other to get to that point normally

  • @anafterword If you were not, you would not be here arguing, you'd be agreeing. Case closed. The gov't has no buisness micromanaging anything, not the economy, and certainly not people's lives, this includes handouts. When it does this, freedom is lost. We have virtually none left today. This is due ot the fear of the pro-big brother left. Full Stop.

    Comedyguy, you are funny, but in a pathetic way. I'd suggest electroshock, or playing in traffic.

  • Electing representatives isn't a democracy, its a republic

  • the hate merchants (beck, hannity, pat robinson, and some republicans), radical right (tea party) and self-righteous religious fanatics like palin etc... along with fox news have no political platform. they can only wrap themselves around the flag and degrade and dehumanize the people who don't see their views. they want to divide and conquer but the only objective they will achieve will be to unite america no matter what party they belong to.

  • This video seems like a coup d'etat.

    I don't hate my representatives... I just "disapprove of how Congress is doing their job."

    They're just stupid, not hateworthy.

  • I just subscribed

  • Ron Paul 2012

  • ure hot

  • 17% of the country votes.

    NONE of these politicians represent the people.

    As far as I'm concerned: we are gonna take the power back.

    No politicians.

    No presidents.

    No police.

    Just people.

  • @GDuff123 than well become a little bit to corrupt. without police, thugs would run out freely murdering.

  • @GDuff123 just people, until other people being controlled by other people turn us into ashes.

  • @stfuplzzzz The idea is that this time, you will actually TRY to think for yourself. Right now, for example, you are speaking of a regurgitated opinion.

  • @stfuplzzzz

    Then it will be the responsibility of both you and the militia to stand up for what is right.

    If you won't then someone with courage will...most likely not me. I'd try, but I'm a bit small.

  • @GDuff123 oh yeah, like somalia. 

  • @kqcrazii

    Actually, Somalia is led by 4 different factions- and the people have NO power. Al Sabbah controls the region.

    It's called an education son, I suggest you acquire one. Or at least use wikipedia like a normal troll.

  • @GDuff123 Somalia lacked a strong government. Therefore, these factions formed. This will result in ANY country that lacks a government. Including here in America.

  • @kqcrazii

    REALLY?

    Seriously, read SOMETHING.

    Somalia's government was corrupt ALREADY, THAT is why the factions were formed. RELIGION also had a big part in the matter.

    Also, the fact that Somalia is subject to sever drought made things worse.

    Somalia had a VERY strong government-thats why it split up in the first place.

    Also, you have no evidence to brig to the table.

    Have you ever heard of the militia? Of course not, you've never read the 2nd Ammendmant, have you?

  • I think we should drag congress and all politicans out of their offices and club them to death. The have turned on the USA and they r out for themselves, special interest, big business, and the rich. I have lost faith in all Politicans and would vote for a Muslim radical before a white man in a suite or a white woman. They have turned their backs on us... especially the republican party... NAZI CHRISTIAN BASTARDS!

  • MAKE THIS THE most advertised person on youtube ( something new)

    2. make this the most advertised person on youtube!!

  • I recently posted a video somewhat along the lines of this video

  • From, SaintChristopherV I support and endorse this video

  • I don't hate congress, I HATE THESE fucking Banks, there the one who drove this country down to the ground. They say there an american company, but the go and open up there headquarters in Switzerland, to avoid paying american taxes, this is bull shit. I say fuck the banks and fuck these dumb ass politician that want to give them another bailout, so they can give them self another promotion.

  • Young fellow. Here are some words of advice. Never spend more than you have in the bank, never let anyone borrow money from you (unless you don't care about it coming back), and never cosign on a loan with anyone. That being said, don't trust anyone else with your money....even Government. I disliked your video, I'm sorry.

  • What is going on in this country? We are in trouble!

  • We get to each vote for one representative and two senators. That means we have a say in .229% of the House of Representatives and 2% in the Senate. That is hardly representation.

  • @anafterword You are a liberal. You would not have said what you did otherwise. You are therefore befuddled, & willingly beleive lies. Truth is a vile thing to you, so you call it inanity. And as such, you are also a threat. Too often you (type) get the last word, & control the media, & the schools.

    Yes, I will respond - and on the level you do. For as long as I have free time (& I have a lot of free time). If you want me to stop, then don't reply. Simple. But can you do it? ;)

  • @usquanigo You are such a damned lair, please just outright avoid the GE statement that he pointed out and go on with slanderous lies.

  • you should really try to get your own radio show or talk show or something. 

  • Wow, so you must be Glenn Beck's son.....Gotta be!

  • @Phoephy2008 haha

  • we don't elect them money dus.

  • You have a big pimple on your forehead. But you're intelligent, thanks.

  • This is good. :D

  • Your words are true and time for all USA citizen to know who they are voting for. Need men and woman who can count and know history.

  • Thank God an intelligent young person. You have renewed my hope for this Country. I know there are alot of you smart guys out there I just don't run into many.

  • Thats exactly the way they want it. They want our Dollar to fail, they want a New World Order. We need all of them out of there now before it's too late. Then refill the seats and then fix the corruption and set term limits. That way nobody has enough time to become corrupt and yes we need more than just Lawyers.

  • Its nice to hear an intelligent American for once, if only the rest of your country could have such balanced and well thought out views.

  • the one person that wouldn"t take any of our wash politicts,namely,JAMES TRAFFICANT,FROM OHIO,it"s the REASON that CONGRESS,HADto find some-way,to get him out-of-there.Income Tax[get real],if he runs again,there is NO question,in Ohio,he WILL BE RE-ELECTED.He won"t take any s----t,from anyone.Run for President Jim.A OH Resident.

  • You don't have a Congressman a senator or police department because they all belong to the rich elite police puts our young men and women in jail to support the prison industrial Corporation they use our armies to plunder the world we haven't fought for freedom since World War II we only have mercenaries now that's why no one is concerned about dead soldiers the rich do not care about young men they will kill them for profit

  • I couldnt pay attention to your video. The whole time I was staring at your hindu dot on your forehead.

  • You should know some of the smartest people in the world work for think tanks. Big political parties own these think tanks. Everyone thought when we elected obama it was a pivotal moment in our country. To tell you the truth the democrats put obama where he is just to tell the Republicans look what we can do .

    I am an independent now

  • Right on, get ride of Career politicians (like Harry Reid) and get more diversity like the American people, one for the people and not for themselves or the Gready Businessman and lobbyist!!!

  • Give us something or someone who is actually worth voting for, then maybe we can vote for some one decent! Bring Term limits and write ins...... Get ride of the Democrats and Republicans.......

  • our miracle whip video check it out please!! it will help :D, thank you in advance, its only 60 seconds long, promise no b.s. click on name for our page... thank you

  • I disagree with Dan on this video. We're not mad at the ideals of any party, we're tired of the politicking between the two parties. The debt ceiling crisis was not about the debt ceiling, it was a game of chicken, and the democrats caved first. America has a spending problem, primarily the wars we are in, but we also need to tax in a different way.

  • this guy thinks his voice is unique and cute...well its not it sounds totally fake and stupid and doesnt make you any more attractive...

  • @acuradan623

    harsh but true. lol.

  • I am SUBSCRIBED!

  • I'm too young to run and plus, I would make a terrible leader considering that I'm not good with people and I prefer dramatic, radical ideas to moderate, unassuming ideas. I don't think I will encourage my family to run since our foreign policy would end up being to nuke the Middle East and prepare for the 2012 apocalypse.

  • 74 dislikes are rich.

  • Ahhhhh cmoooooooonnnn motha fuckas!!!! Eat Potatoes drink juice watch news!

  • he looks kinda crazy

  • Find the 82 percent and start a nation wide angry mob.

  • Its sad to say, but when it comes down to it Dan, we do not have any power when it comes to this country. Votes don't count, opinions don't count, protesting doesn't count.....we are prisoners here made to seem content, but really, the govt. makes all their own decisions. They don't put up with what we want, they do what they want without any of our choices. We don't elect by the power of the people, that is a line they feed us. This country's govt. run us, we don't run them.

  • so, we're suppose to listen to some kid that has a pimple on his forhead the size of TEXAS on it ?

    see, the reason we're pissed is that what we were promised was not what were getting.

  • @130starfish You my friend, are an idiot. So because he happens to have a pimple on his forehead, his opinion is null and void? What's the difference between his opinion and lets say..FOX News. Well firstly this guy is unbiased, so I would take his word over them any day. Another Obama hater? tsk tsk. How often does someone running for president lie? EVERY election lmao..And he's actually making an effort to fix the fuck ups Bush gave us..Everyone said it would take him 2 terms to make progress.

  • @TaZWhite "this guy is unbiased".... MUAHAHAHAHAHA! XD

    You are still in denial; Obama (the community organizer) has no idea what he is doing. You would rather keep following the fraud rather than admit you made a mistake. Your pride hurts us all. “Citizen Reasonability” is as foreign a concept to libertards as a fiscal budget. We need to take responsibility for educating ourselves on candidates, not leaving it to politicians and corporate media to paint a picture.

  • @kuhioffxi Obama has kept a majority of this campaign promises, don't know what you are on about.

  • @comedyguy911 The only campaign promise Barack Hussein Obama has kept is the fundamental transformation of America and it wont be the America you know. He is destroying this country with his socialistic agenda. The wonderful stimulus bill, the money from that went to back to the government and special interest groups. Not to mention Obama Care..

    40% of the nations debt is Obama's.

  • @comedyguy911 Are you for real? I can’t tell if you’re joking or not.

  • @kuhioffxi yea really

  • @kuhioffxi @wilson38115

    politifact[dot]com/truth-o-met­er/promises/obameter

    Keep trying.

    But tell me, that is wrong with Obama's "Socialism"? FDR did the same thing with his New Deal plan.

  • @kuhioffxi I'm going to laugh at you and all the other Obamabashers when his 2nd term is up (He will win), and the country is more stable.

  • @TaZWhite The “nuh-uh” response I come to expect from libertard Obama-nut-huggers.

  • @kuhioffxi lol..What have you said that was at least semi-educated? Other than we need to learn for ourselves about candidates. Obama has been trying to make a move in the right direction, but retarded ass republicans decided to NOT help him, so come time for 2012 elections he won't have anything under his belt. If you ask me, that's fucking pathetic. He had a HUGE mess to clean up after bush left office, and he's making strides in Health care, he's starting to stabilize the Unemployment rate--

  • Comment removed

  • @kuhioffxi He has lowered the amount of troops over in Iraq and Afghanistan considerably. Everyone can bitch about the deficit being higher because of him, but he's investing money in our future and into things that can actually benefit us. There are literally too many things to name. You obviously get your information from the wrong place..I smell pussy..I mean Republican. Sorry I get them confused.

  • Yeah....vlog brothers influence here.....nothing wrong with that though ^_^

  • Excuse me? Let's call a spade a spade. The people responsible for the whole debt mess and for the refusal to compromise rests with the REPUBLICANS!!!!!!!

  • your voice reminds me of obama...

  • Are you Dan Brown?

  • DAN BROWN FOR CONGRESS!!!

  • fuck politics

  • Why all the quick editing with these amateur mama's boy vloggers? Does having a big zit on your forehead make you think like this loser? I guess so, remember to wash face daily.

  • The logic is very simple and, therefore, very convincing. These government's bastards and bitches (all of them, from both parties) lied to us, and, mainly, robbed us. So, they -all should be fired. We can't fire all of them, but we can essentially minimize their number and authorities. And that is just the platform of Libertarians and Tea Party. I truly do not see how dems or reps can fight this bright evidence.

  • So, it is the time for Tea Party or for Libertarians, what IOWA straw pole confirmed. And Gore and Oldermann can talk till blue in their faces, but they can's change the evidence and its consequences, which I described herewith above.

  • And how exactly Americans should be represented in congress? I-personally think that after Iraq and terms of Bush Jr., when republicans compromised themselves, and after almost 3 years of Obama's term with all his wars, impossible health care bill and deep economic downturn nobody wants either party to be densely (very softly speaking) presented in government.

  • check out my CRAZZYY version of ET on my channel!!! :)

  • They lie to us, we vote them into office based on their lies, then we complain instead of going to Washington and stringing them all up from the highest tree.

  • People get into politics to better their own situation. They are not there to put their money into everyone elses pockets.

  • Why do you put awkward pauses in between all of your words and jerk your head around so much? Do you have Parkinson's disease?

  • @EricPNeuman

    Nahh I think he's related to Captain Kirk

  • This generation’s tie-dye will be the YouTube jump-cut.

    Anyway, I have a feeling that most people who are “don’t matter what party wins, they all suck” are Obama voters who will not admit to themselves and others they dun goofed.

  • @kuhioffxi

    Not really, Liberals are pushovers and Conservatives are narrow minded. It's as simple as that

  • who doesn't?

  • corporate personhood destroys congress integrity

  • Career Politicians Pfft, we need a "vs" reality show with these people vs the regular folk, with challenges like: for example....the power is out... what do you do? dun dun dun

  • @ThePolytic regular people would just wait for power to be back on and make sure it doesnt go out again while congress goes and ask to stay at a friends house for electricity. Sounds familiar? Dept Crisis

  • @borissman taxes enough already. A grassroots movement, which dan obviouslt hates for the wrong reasons, that wants balanced budget and constitutional restricton on the government and its role in our lives.

  • @MadisonJett not the slightest. Thomas Jefferson was a libertarian. Dan beleves in soft socialism. Somethng Jefferson would never advocate as it violates natural rights.

  • Political parties just create factions. 

  • your face reminds me of that screaming man that was on fox news..

  • >230 some odd years of democracy

    >democracy

    The United states of America is a Democratic Republic. The differences between the two are not unsubstantial. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about

  • you sound like obama ... thats not a bad or good things i just mean you have a similar accent or speech pattern. im not really sure. its just interesting.

  • So this guy wrote Angels and Demons?

  • congres thinks they are demigods there to piss on the peons. It,s time my brothers and sisters ARMED REVOLT

  • I am 5 subs away from 10 subs!!WHOEVER IS the 10th sub gets 3 subs back!!!"

  • THE RENT IS TOO DAMN HIGH. Listen. Do you hear that? That’s the sound of the little fat kid stomach growling. Why, because THE RENT IS TOO DAMN HIGH!

    LOL this for some reason reminded me of that guy named Jimmy McMillan.

  • We elect "these people" under the impression that they are going to DO THE RIGHT THING but other crap that is intrinsically part of "our system" (ie lobbyists represented by big corporations etc) basically makes our system work unlike the way we think it should work.

    It cracks me up--it's like hiring a secretary that types but a bunch of lobbyist come in and convince the secretary to be, I dunno-a plumber. It sucks.

  • obama should just step down and let Joe run the rest of the term

  • The founding fathers greatest fear is what is currently happening to America. They wanted politics do be about the issues, not people, now look at it, its party vs party not 1 way to solve an issue vs other way to solve the issue. If the founding fathers we alive today each of them would get several heart attacks simultaneously.

  • Well said! Unfortunately I don't know anyone personally who could run. Everyone I know is struggling too much, with finding a job or planning ahead should they be laid off, with getting health care or mental care, with not losing their house. It seems only the financially secure could afford the time and energy to run for a position, and unfortunately that no longer means the middle-class.

  • Guess what. Congress lives in California. California homes are SUPER expansive. So....People call them up to say "Hey, Vote no for this bill and I'll give you so much." Aaaaannnndd...That is were corruption starts. 

  • The gov't is SUPPOSED to gridlock. That is the whole point of distribution of powers among so many people and entities. "The government that governs best, governs least"!!!

    Too many freeloaders (liberals) trying to get handouts or give handouts from my pockets are what's behind this insane worship of "compromise". It's sickening.

  • @usquanigo Some of the biggest

    'handouts' go to corp interests and big business.. (Republican/Conservative).. Do the math Corp welfare is a big ticket item. and the talking heads just keep fueling the flame of lets just hate the ones that need help, they should be able to help themselves,, Sickening is GE and its like getting tax rebates,,, that is sickening.. I'm a liberal,, have never needed unemployment in 54 yrs.. glad it is hear now so I can eat and look for more work, I will find it too

  • @nissanfox It's so sad that people actually beleive crap like that. It's why we've lost all our freedoms & live in a wellfare state that's on the verge of collapse.

    The only tax cuts to companies is to foreign companies to build plants here (which let's them step around tariffs too), while US corps get the shaft. + all the libs buy foreign any chance they get, then claim "it was built here", yet the money goes back to Japan, not here.

    I knew some blind lib woulb commenting back to me though.

  • I completely agree with this video

    But, America is not a Democracy, it's a Republic. We do elect people who are rich and have no idea what the vast majority of American life is like, they only know about the lives of the people sponsoring them. The only Democratic part is that WE the people elect them, but they don't listen about what we say, because after election, they only listen to the bigger boys. i like the idea of our government when it first came out, but what it turned into, worst ever!

  • whoooooooooooo!!! home page baby

  • I didn't hear a word he said because all I could think about was "that's a huge crater on his forehead". LOL

  • are you filming with a DSLR?

  • Do u know why we havent mastered it yet? BECAUSE THE DIPPSHITS WE THINK WE KNOW ALWAYS TURN OUT TO BE ASSHOLES! Liars will always exist, and unfortunately these lairs always are fortunate enough to get such valueable and important jobs.

  • 2 much stuttering (& overacting)

  • Why does every Youtuber have to talk in a retarded voice to get views?

  • @computerjero - Absolutely! The issue is not that we have the wrong people running for office, but that in an absence of feedback from any other sources these people will listen to the voices that do speak to them, mainly, the corporations who finance their elections. In the case of the Tea Party, you see a very vocal minority who got involved.

    So the answer is not for everyone to run for office, but for everyone to get involved & informed. Then talk to their elected officials!

  • @marmaline2001 that is nonsense because humans are inherntly greedy and manknd stll lives on.

  • America isn't a democracy, though; it is a constitutional federal republic.

  • this guy just doesnt seem to understand that the reason our credit rating got downgraded was because of all the debt our country put on in such a short amount of time. It is also the reason everything is getting so expensive cuz printing money creates inflation. It's really not that hard to understand if 1 dollar buys 1 cup then up print another dollar it now takes 2 dollars to buy that same cup because no matter how many dollars u print there will always be 1 cup.

  • @DarkBioCloud this guy named Dan is a typical offspring of the liberal media bias. Frst he watches al gore. fne. then he says he is no fan of the tea party. Really,now? Balanced budgets is not a good thng? Backing our currency wth gold s a bad thng? Money printng to fulfll your socialist agenda is a good thing? What a liar he s. The current congress we have has put a stop to obama's agenda. And he dares say we would be better off wthout tea aprty. Well his messiah had controll of congress

  • I love my senators. It's the ones from other states that suck.

  • Americans as mad as hell…but they won't do squat about it because they're happy with their TV shows, little tech gadgets and any drivel that completely unimportant. 

  • Imitating that other vlogger..
