  • I think most of them voted for obama. ha ha what schmucks. RON PAUL..

  • I am with you, brothers and sisters.

  • Kevin Spacy's bit is the one we want to pay attention to. Really close attention to...

  • A Better Reading:

  • Having More Than 7 Days Of Food Makes You A Suspected Terrorist!?

    youtube.com/watch?v=malCdqGAvV­Q

    they passed NDAA S.1867 - you Can now be rounded up INDEFINITELY DETAINED if the gov thinks your a domestic terrorist. see above vid for what makes you a domestic terrorist

  • 0:27

  • And so henceforth, King George the III has been known throughout history as THAT guy.

  • When I saw the book in the statue of liberty's hand, it reminded me that I had never fully read this... :( When I saw this video, the words were as sweet as honey, but due to current times, it created a bitter feeling in the pit of my stomach.. (Check it with wisdom to those who catch it)

  • I remember watching this video in 8th grade. I, a senior in HS appreciate this even more than I did back then. =)

  • As they say, "The real fireworks are in the document itself." Happy 4th America.

  • if you don't like the american way..........then what are you doing on this video and let us enjoy freedom and the meaning of what it stands for US!!! God Bless The USA!!

  • @pinkkrissy66 What you must first humble yourself and understand is that the "American Way" no longer exists. I will state it firmly and plainly as this, "I will stand for MY COUNTRY but NOT the Corrupt Government that has went against the US Constitution and what our founding fathers set in place." - We are soon no longer a free people, even in America. Don't assume because something has defined us for so long that its an "unsinkable ship" ... You're right about one thing, God bless the USA!

  • its ironic that the decleration is read by hollywood actors instead of common people ...

  • what a joke.. FUCK THE NWO. Fuck hollywood

  • jefferson used the word "things" haha

  • @ojdec and "Totally" that was weird!

  • This was excellent,thankyou so much.Happy 4th everybody.

  • Says nothing about how to remove a Secret Givernment banking system and rich families that want to fucking kill us all

  • Ironic choice that the only Native American actor in the group, gets to read the part about the Indians being "savages".

  • @jaxonmd72 you're right !! It's even a shame !! How was he able to accept ?

    His ancestors had to turn themselves in their graves ( if they have one !) .

  • PLANET OF THE APES FOLKS

  • I wish people could see the world for what it is. It's not about the Demuplicans and the Republicrats people! If I were evil and wealthy, I'd buy both and it has been shown BOTH parties do the same thing; increased military and police power and benefiting the rich.

  • Ironic that these people would read a document that the democrat party so frequently pisses on.

    that isn't to say the republicans don't do it either.

    But if you were to ask them what they think about redistribution of wealth they'd all be for it.

  • German soldiers massacred the entire population of Oradour-sur-Glane, France on 10 June 1944. They killed the men first placing the women & children into the church where, later, they too were slaughtered.

    In 1980s Guatemala, military death squads used this same method as they massacred entire Guatemalan villages. Guatemala's Nazi-like massacres were enacted with the blessings of Ronald Reagan, one of the 20th century's great mass murderers.

    Death and free markets: the conservative credo.

  • A bunch of overpaid Hollywood boobs read the DoI? Whose idea was this? Another Hollywood boob's, I suppose.

  • Freedom!!!!

  • Note that at 8:22 they have an Asian chick read the part about "and that as free and independent states, they have the power to...."

    Clearly they want to give the IMPORTANT part of the Declaration to someone who can't speak English well enough to be able to say what it MEANS-- i.e. THIRTEEN free and independent states-- not ONE SINGLE one!

  • @postalmeter You fail civics forever. The Declaration clearly states, "That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States..."

    You also fail being human by referring that Ming-Na can't speak English.

    Finally, you fail history when it comes to realizing that the federal government has always trumped state sovereignty, except in the enumerated powers given to the states.

  • I hate it when actors think they know something just because they read lines... it's like Obama reading his teleprompters and thinking he knows what he's talking about.

    The phrase "these are, and by right ought to be, FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES" should tip ANYONE off that they are SEPARATE nations-- not ONE nation-- particularly from "they have the power to declare wars, conclude peace, enter treaties and do all the other things sovereign states may by right do."

    a-DUHHHHHH!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Amen!

  • Not Americans.....14th Amendment Federal I.D. Carrying .U.S. Citizens

    You better understand the difference

  • @LottsaLasagna

    That die was cast at Appomattox, hombre.

  • please..... that was just written for white ppl

  • @JUANO510: No actually it was written for American citizens, if you don't wish to participate in this Republic LEAVE and go back to your corrupt crime ridden shit hole of a home country ungrateful parasite.

  • @espada9

    There ARE no "American citizens," there citizens of EACH STATE.

    These are collectively referred in the Constitution, Article IV section 2 as "citizens IN the SEVERAL states."

    The 14th Amendment, like all actions of the empire, is based on an usurpatory coup d'etat by which the FEDERAL government distorted history in order give itself NATIONAL authority over the states.

    In REALITY, each state is SOVEREIGN under its people (vs. its government), i.e. each CITIZEN is a CO-EMPEROR.

  • this is what happens when you act like a douchebag to people

  • @oJKBo

    ALL actors are douchebags... look at Obama.

  • FUCK YOU 16 TERRORIST ASS NAZI FUCKERS!

  • Free Afgan people !

  • @XpresloX: From what?  Islam?

  • @espada9 Haha. I had the same exact thought. Thumbs up!

  • Free Iraq !

  • I wonder if our leaders today realize that this could be used on them for what they are doing today

  • I made this, hope it inspires you.

    /watch?v=oAHqqVozS6U

  • I hope you actors know the reality of our current situation. How the banks are in bed with the gov't so far, every gov't official is bought n paid 4. How the gov'ts of every single city, municipality, county,parish,state,federal and any and all in between are corporations.These corps. R not the gov't that should be seated.It is a defacto gov't operating inder the color of law,not upholding the common law but subjecting us all to laws of contracts in commerce. all done to steal your money.

  • i'd rather watch Leif Garrett Special excerp w/Brooke Shields

  • This reeks of Lockean idealism. not that thats a bad thing at all. but it was considered exteremely radical for the time.

  • Uyghurs want independence too.

  • my ancestor signed the declaration and his name is Thomas McKean

  • why can we not listened to this. who is the ass hole that has disabled it?

  • @rockygreenmountains No one "disabled" our unalienable Rights! These Rights transcend those in power who embrace tyranny. We need to view our Rights through the prism of science (see my channel video). These Rights apply to all Life, and Social systems. In our enlighten age of science and technology, the Laws of Nature trumps mortals in power; revisiting these Rights from the vantage point of science will help make this world a better place to live.

  • I wish they had read this instead of the Constitution.

  • @theyalllied It is shorter, but the Constitution spells out the Limits to what we will endure or the Limits to what lengths those that want to Govern (I prefer Lead) us. The Constitution is the Congress, Senate and Presidents Bible of Leadership ... there is no deviation allowed and that is as it should be. Each and Everyone of them took the Oath to Support and Defend the Constitution. It was Proper to Read The Constitution.

  • 21 gemini=speculating/not speculating in lieu of facts. add mars and you have assumptiveness, rushing to judgement, haste, preemption, and feeling empowered by ignorance.

  • wow i had to memorize this :PP talk bout fun 

  • I find it very ironic that a bunch of hypocritical, left wing, libtard actors are reading that which they now shit on. These people are just like Obama... good readers but not much substance or brains. Obama is a product of left wing ideology and not much else. Libtard equals emotionally abundant citizens with no real substantive ideas of how to pay for them other than to tax those they consider to be rich while their actual result is creation of more governmental reliance. Only poor pay taxes.

  • Only America would have their historical document read aloud by movie stars.

  • oooooo mel gibson

  • such a great video, i accidentally press dislike, and i shot myself in the soul.

  • When was this made?!

  • Pure emotional BS. So many hollywood liberals, who believe that the declaration of independence is invalid as they do not believe that we have the unalienable right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. If they did there is no way in hell they would have all supported President Obama who believes that the right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness is secondary to the needs of the collective. No doubt McCain is a dirt bag as well but highly desirable in comparison to Obama.

  • @CWSmith1982 your stupidity is truly sad, its idiots like you who are preventing equality and world peace

  • @RLP1972 Milton Freidmen: "A society that puts equality before freedom will get neither. A society that puts freedom before equality will get a high degree of both." Obama is the anti Thomas Jefferson as are these actors. You want equality of stuff, not equality of freedom/liberty.

  • @CWSmith1982 "A society that puts equality before freedom will get neither." the actual quote form Franklin was "He who sacrifices freedom for security deserves neither."

    Milton Friedman an economist that died in 2006 so why is his words reliant here?

    oh and the right winger also call on the greater good of the collective as an argument. They want to ban gay marriage, because they think it would be bad for society, i.e. the collective. Oboma wants to help all individuals as equally as possible.

  • @fireflygirl246 I agree. And I think you left out three words at the end of Franklin's quote "..and lose both."

  • @fireflygirl246 By your assertion, the constitutiona and the declaration of independence is irrelevent because it was made by a bunch of guys that died a long time ago. And who cares about gay marrage. I never made a comment about gay marrage. If anything I support it. You see, your arguement is so weak that your trying to avoid it by changing the subject. The problem is that your making assumptions based upon the position of the individual. I guess your previous statement is dead now huh?

  • @CWSmith1982 No The founding fathers were not just some guys and the constitution and the declaration of independence were the founding principles of the united states and they were good ideas. What the founding fathers said is very impotent, as far as Friedman words being relivent I was asking you why we should take the seriously not that we should not take the seriously at all, but I need a reason to. Gay marriage was just an example of right wing collectivism. cont...

  • .... What previous position is that? That was the first comment I had made to you. I only called into question why we should be listening to Milton Freidmen, you should be able to give us some reason we should. I also pointed out that the right wing often says what it is doing is for the greater good so why are you picking on Obama?

    "I guess your previous statement is dead now huh?" no because you have not responded to my statement in any meaningful way, would you care to try again?

  • Wake up folks, Tyranny has swept America and it didnt start with Obama

  • @myOATHmyCREED you're right. it started with FDR.

  • @soldatordinaires ...WHEN IS IT TIME....WHAT IS GONNA START IT!?(THE REVOLUTION)

  • @treon123456 it will never be time. there will be no revolution. nobody in their right mind would ever take on the US, rebelling or in a foreign war. it would lose, and this country is very much worth fighting FOR instead of against. i am a patriot, i believe this is the most free country on the earth and it will forever remain so.

  • @soldatordinaires It started long before that. This grasp has been brewing for more then 35,000 years bro. Us humans of today don't realize that we we're created then freed by the Nephilm/Sons of the Serpent - we we're slaves to this cross section of Ancient Astronauts. Some of them took into account that we are like them and this particular part of these astronauts gave us a chance at freedom & consciousness. But all parts are needed to create our experienced needed here on Earth. Great Vid!

  • @Kether1985 hahaha you be trollin'

  • @soldatordinaires They see me rollin' they hatin. :P

  • @myOATHmyCREED IS IT TIME FOR REVOLUTION?

  • @myOATHmyCREED Geez dude. fuck off. Tyranny is a stong fucking word, and America is far from being caught in Tyranny.

  • Who had more money? more power? Mel Gibson or Michael Douglas?

  • Some of them aren't American and let use american accents. And also- they're actors, can't they remember thier lines. Other than that the declaration of independance is one of the greatest documents in the histroy of western civilisation

  • There are really only two choices... restore America to its original de Jure Constitution and government (pre- 1860), return to common law and constitutional law, and remove the unlawful, 'color of law, U.S.Gov Corporation and each of the several states' false corporate governments... or learn to abide and acquiesce to a fourth, interminable and rapacious 'Reich'. Time is running out. Revolution must be peaceful and in accord with the principles embodied in the Constitution, circa 1787.

  • Mel is Australian. Does he have a Green Card? ;)

  • @treasguy : Dummkopf! Mel is a born American and never relinquished his American citizenship. Dig it.

  • Spacecadet, Did I say that I cannot stand these people ? I most certainly did not. Are they Americans and have the right to believe and to cleave to whatever political creed they want ? Absolutely. It is the Constitution that gives them that right. But it does not detract from the observation that I made.

  • This is a message to British Petroleum , We will not take it any more , enough is enough ... Stop killing our land , people, animals and future... And its a new day and way for US to energy Independence... BP you hear can you US now...

    Uncle Sam...

  • The Tea Party needs to listen to this... this is what the Tea Party was all about... not hatred of others, as well as the Republican Party... denying rights of the people, stonewalling laws being passed to help the people, and more important, if you do not believe what they believe say that you are not an American.

    I am an American, born in this country, proud of this country, and more important, proud of who I am... A Gay American who deserves all of the rights of the straight Americans

  • As an American he has that right. Just as you have the right to disagree. That is what the Declaration of Independence is all about.

  • As moving as this presentation is, it is very ironic that every one of these actors are died in the wool liberals who worship a president who spits on the Constitution every day. Kevin Spacey recently went to Venezuela to sit at the feet of dictator Hugo Chavez, and here he is reading The Declaration of Independence? What a farce. I would go as far as to say that with perhaps with the exception of Mel Gibson, none of these people ever think of the document they read.

  • @olentangy74 How can you say you love America, when you clearly can't stand Americans? So they're liberal....they are still Americans. It is the rights this document speaks of that allows people to choose what political stance they want to take.

  • this was written to King George of England, if you listen they keep saying "He"

  • @ozonebabyzz Not so sure the date was 2007 Mr. Michel "I'm going to leave America" douglus hated Bush I think they were addressing this to Bush, but I wonder if they would do it to obama?

  • I am British and I agree with the declaration of independence.

    People across the globe that are miles away from our country deserve their own independence when they are strong enough and competent to run their own laws and government. Britain, France, Spain and Holland have contributed in a huge way to America's history.

  • People talk about the Constitution and the Declaration as if they are the same document. They are two separate documents and were not written together, just wanted to clarify.

  • why was this made? is it just celebrating the Declaration of Independence, or to support Obama?

  • The day is comming...

  • Wow! That was beautiful!

    I wonder how the average Amercian would react if an Iraqi read this document back to us... but replacing "The King" with "The US occupation"?

    They'd probably say the Declaration of Independence is a terrorist document.

  • Let them remember the words they spoke. These are divinely insispired language. Let no King, nor no President prevent us OUR RIGHTS!

    WE ARE A FREE PEOPLE!

    I Shall stand, as a free American, that these offneses shall not stand!

    I Pledge to You, my Brothers, my Life, my Fortune, and my Sacred Honor!

  • @jeep1234567890 Real freedom is freedom from the influence of our own minds, our limitations, which we created ourselves.

    Real Self-expression is real independence, free from the mind polarity of desire and aversion..

  • @jeep1234567890 How about the same right of Independence for your fellow countrymen. WE are NOT a free people. Any Southerner can tell you the story of 1861-1865. We declared our Independence and this same Goverment who talks of these rights to form their own countyry sent troops to our home and murdered thousands of us. Free?? You have GOT to be kidding!!

  • @jeep1234567890 And I do the same! Death to tyranny. Freedom for these Americas FOREVER!

  • @yonigga223

    Can't have freedom without SOVEREIGNTY, and every STATE is sovereign- i.e. FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES.

    They are NOT declaring a single nation, but THIRTEEN!

  • FUCKING LIAR"S

  • Edward Norton!!!

  • 20 year navy veteran comment: "all" the actors are wearing gay equality lapel pins verses wearing pro american-type pins. I understand that we are the land of the free, but all wearing the same pin?! Looks like their allegance is flying for the wrong flag. Sorry.

  • SPREAD THIS VIDEO PLEASE

  • A long train of financial abuses ..eh..?

  • i love the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE but it think its crap that some of these people in this video reading the DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE support a man that spits upon it

  • I'm sorry about that, I feel better now.

    God Bless America I love you people :)

  • I would just like to say I Love America, I have nothing against the U.S or Americans in general.

    But Mel Gibson is a Hypocritical air headed annoying fuckin dick head !!

    He's an Australian born n bred, looks down at us British, and the commonwealth (His own country) like scum, is open about it.. and has taken every opportunity in his his acting career to produce over the top bias films degrading us.

    FUCK YOU GIMP BOY!! your films are shit and you're a fuckin retard anywas. lol

  • Comment removed

  • That is so true about the British Royal Families, because the royal still have and will always have that serp mentality. That is the sufferage we fled and the Dec. of Independence was written to ensure no chance that we become enslavened to such again by the mentality of the Royal family.

  • Buchanan Parker know who is Thompson? American is looking at a book of his called "Spanish Aid in the War of American Independence" because thanks not only to Spain but tambos your independence was accomplished france, france helping with their armies against England and Spain providing food, weapons, money and attacking southern England by, I'm glad your independence because the British are stupid ass-faced

  • I don't think so. You are stuck in the past.

    The Royal family's have no control over England any more. the prime minister, the government, the main council's & local civilian run council's have powers and speech.

    Its been this way since shortly after the Anglo-Dutch wars, post revolution.

    We seem to keep a royal family for some reason I don't really know? Heritage maybe.

    But they are a waste of our resources thats for sure.

    Royal allegiance is a chapter in history long gone with no return.

  • I'm not ashamed to say that I support Obama. He's our president and he walked into a big mess and he needs our help and support. The mention of changing the government does not mean making any change to the constitution. It means that if our representatives don't do the job right, it is our duty as citizens to protect the Oath of the constitution. Every military troop, police, rescue worker, and civilian have a right, and a duty to do this.

  • LP III+

  • this is awesome

  • There are so many things to take a stand for or to hate or love, but you know, I choose to hang on to the idea that our country is really a great nation, and one I love. I thank God everyday I live here. I love America. I respect the opinion of those around me. However, I must respect most of all my heart and what is dear to me.

  • This is so inspiring. I got goosebumps =).

  • The amazing thing about this video that shows me how awesome the words read aloud here is that most of these actors were thinking about George Bush and the Republicans. I hear it and think about Obama and the Democrat congress (with RINOS) that are spending us into oblivion.

  • First off, I can tell your bias based on your username alone. But I believe you would LIKE to think that. But I doubt you could say what they were thinking of while reading this.

    For example, Whoopi Goldberg is a very outspoken liberal. Therefore, I don't know how supportive she could have been of George Bush's presidency.

    I don't think they would have to think of the current president while reading this, persay. I bet they are just proud of their heritage and where their country started.

  • My point is that the words are so powerful and universal that they work for either side.

  • "Educate and inform the whole mass of the American people... They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty.

    Thomas Jefferson

  • These are important words that should be heard by all Americans regardless of party affiliation. I have known many good and true people of the Democrat, Republican, and Independent parties, and I believe each of these would say that you must hear these words & have reverence, that you should examine ones own current political state and question. How does government get better otherwise?

    God Bless America

  • Thank you for posting this. It's one thing to read it on paper, but it's something entirely different to hear the Declaration of Independence as it ought to be read.

  • this was the best video ib ever seen

  • is that one dude emilio esteves

  • hearing this kinda gave me hope that maybe our country is not lost and that we can do something about it in order for the United States of Amerca to regain the freedom that has been slowly and continues to be taken away and to overthrow the corrupt government officials starting with our current president.

  • I'm curious as to how many of these peopel are obama supporters, most I'm sure.

  • Spelling = people

  • And what do these Hollywood folks think about Cass Sustein, Van Jones, Mark Llyod, Jeff Jones, Bill Ayers all proclaimed radicals, Marxists, communists, terrorists - AKA: "Progressives" working with Obama in his Administration, who himself has yet to reject his own Marxism and communism?

  • They probably think they're nice guys. Typical liberal hypocrisy. Except Mel Gibson, lol

  • I see no reason why they shouldn't support Obama. It's their right as Americans.

  • Sure it's their right but it's hypocritical to say you stand for freedom & then support someone who is diametrically opposed to the Constitution.

  • I have yet to see any evidence that Obama is opposed to the Constitution. Bush, on the other hand, shat all over the Constitution with the Patriot Act and the Homeland Security Bill. If anyone is opposed to the Constitution, Bush is. During his time in office he was in fact quoted as saying, "If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier."

  • I agree that Bush was a scumbag & is opposed to the constitution. Obama has continued almost all of Bush's laws including the patriot act & fills his cabinet with communists. Not to mention the unconstitutional healthcare, the coming cap & trade, the expected amnesty for illegal aliens, & a 12 trillion dollar debt. The only thing he's done so far that is Constitutional is shoot 3 Somali pirates. We've never had a more anti-American president in our history.

  • Kevin Spacey, Kathy Bates, Renee Zellweger, Graham Green, as well...

    Great video!!!

  • sounds to me that the US government has become what it opposed...America's enemy has always been Great Brittan....and now America has become Brittan....go figure

  • I get what you're saying. But actually, the founding fathers got most of their ideas for the constitution from Great Britain. The colonists broke free because the King chose not to follow the nation's setup. The ideas for the constitution were taken from Britain's Magna Carta and from the ideas of John Locke. It wasn't the nation itself they disliked, it was the king.

  • Thankyou, I didnt know that the American Constitution borrowed from Magna Carta, but I was aware that it was the King that they were revolting against.

  • true i can tell you have done your homework

  • Gaaaawd dayum...For a minute...I thought they were talking about G.W.B..And his cronies......Whew!....That was scary!....he he he

  • God Bless our forefathers for declaring independence from the tyranny of England. I would love to read the Declaration of Indepence right into the face of Barak Obama!

  • Comment removed

  • Yep. Many of the founders were either deists or closeted atheists. In fact, one of the big "smears" of the time was against Thomas Jefferson for supposedly being atheist - and he was the man who wrote the document itself!

  • They are talking about God in a poetic sense, the US is a secular state.

  • Technically speaking we are not secular or a state. We are not a theocracy but if we were secular nobody would believe in god and it wouldn't be important to so many people for their elected officials to believe. Also we wouldn't have a pastor for the president. It would be nice if we were though. We aren't a state, we are a republic.

  • The words fall to the floor in the hollow halls of government today.

    how many congressmen have brought up the hate law bill against the will of the people.

    they do not listen to the people they are no longer your public servants but believe they are your masters today because the American people are have been weak and have not manned the watch towers of freedom.

    When will you take back your power ?

  • AMEN! ALL of these GUYS ARE SOME OF MY FAVORITES! WHAT TRUE PATRIOTS AND WONDERFUL HUMAN BEINGS!GOD BLESS US EVERYONE AND JOIN WE THE PEOPLE to SAVE OUR GREAT NATION!!!!! from the current OLIGARCHY!! in OUR WORLD! GIVE US LIBERT YOR DEATH!

  • I would like to thank all those who participated in this very moving video.

  • do you not think the mention of "divine providence" is a mention of God. How about "supreme judge of the world?"

  • ARE YOU POLITICIANS LISTENING?

  • So Help Us GOD.

  • Uhm...yeah...there was no mention of GOD in there. Stop adding words to this very moving document that stands on its own very well without embellishment.

  • Actually God is mentioned, twice.

  • Very moving document!

  • But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
