  • What a tool.

  • What a boss! All these liberal hate mongers are just doing what liberals do best: slamming someone that confronts them with personal attacks and swearing. Liberals only have about 2 good responses to any argument, but these commenting left wing radical trolls in their mom's basement are not even smart enough to respond directly to what he is saying. Conservatism is not policy. It is a principal that should GUIDE policy. If you liberals feel good just cuz you can hate on the brightest young man

  • What the f*ck is this kid saying?! Just get to the damn point and cut the bullsh*t. Don't buy this kids book. Waste of money and his wasting his breathe.

  • A case study of brainwashing.

  • What branch of the service will Parrot Boy choose to enlist?

    

  • So 1,188 would be people who don't acknowledge that this kid was ordered by his parents to give this speech? Or was he paid to do so?

  • Ann Coulter & Glen Beck's love child.

  • [ACHTUNG]Jonathan Krohn is the eternal jew[ACHTUNG]

  • thats my boy

  • what a little douche bag

  • Filth Piglet

  • Its just a speech nothing more I could of made this back in the day I was in 8th grade, its him not defining conservatism but just making a speech praising his point of view.

    No such Political Genius.

    "______ stands for freedom and equality" Wheres my attention now? That is basically his entire speech.

    Though you have to give him credit for talking to a group of adults with his speech.

  • This kid is adorable.

  • 1,123 are liberaltards.

  • He goes to my school & he's annoying.

  • PRINCIPLE PRINCIPLE PRINCIPLEEEEEEEE

  • Parents: Let this kid be a lesson to you, don't brainwash your kids and expect them to think like you. "Conservative principals are amazing, conservative principals will make America better, conservative principals are important." That is basically all I heard from this kid. Conservatives are children, enough said!

  • Just goes to show that there's more than one form of child abuse.

  • I want to punch him in the face.

  • He's a kid... give him a break guys!

  • not true...but must still give him credit for not being lazy like most teens. People should learn something from him.

  • Actually, if you follow his Twitter feed, this kid no longer defines himself as a conservative. He's been concentrating more on reading philosophy, mathematics and watching Star Trek and geeky stuff. He hasn't blogged or wrote about politics or participated in any political events since late last year.

  • Comment removed

  • @klausweasley Well, we can thank god for that! Maybe he is starting to realize he sounds just like a parrot who repeats their owner. "Squawk conservative, squawk rush limbaugh"

  • I think he's very clever and very pragmatic. Good for him.

  • Hes a hell of a lot smarter then most of you, did you guys write a book at 13? Did you have this kind of understanding of any politics at that age? and why does he have to be "brain washed" Maybe he formed his own opinions, you know maybe he has "personal responsibility" for his views.

  • Define nigger

  • Define PR.

  • A goddamn shame such a bright kid has been brainwashed to such a degree. His parents should be beaten.

  • So apparently Kermit the Frog has come up to him and called him a Republican.

  • If your political philosophy can be adequately explained by a 13 year old…then its entirely possible your political philosophy is kinda stupid.

  • all these horrible comments... he is only a kid and he will grow up and will most like change his views with experience. I don't think calling him names will help anything

  • @NoQuMataVuVale Yup, he's a kid. that's why it's important for him to learn now that no matter what you do, no matter how old you are, you take responsibility for who you are, and how you come off. that's the real world. i have no problem with these negative comments, because they're genuine.

  • All style, no substance. Completely redundant and clearly biased in favor of conservatism.

  • This kid got neither a normal life nor acting a normal kid, and I feel sorry for him XD

  • This kid needs to fall down a well.

  • Respect for the Constitution, respect for authority, less life, and personal bootstrap-pulling ability.

  • "Protecting the people and the people's rights."

    Yeah, until after you're born. Then the hell with you. If your parents can't afford it, we don't care if you get food, shelter, medical care, or education.

    Nice 4 Points. Respect for...

    Constitution: Way to imply the opposition doesn't respect it.

    Life: "F*** you, got mine" does not espouse respect for life.

    Small government: BS. See: Bush's term. Code for "oppose democrat pres."

    Personal Responsibility: Don't help people who aren't born rich.

  • I could see this kid one day replacing Rush Limbaugh.

  • hmm waving his hands around when he talks. ya know i used to do that too and talk like that when i was his age. i don't really think he's mimicking glenn beck and bill o'reilly as much as we think, let's just say my gaydar is going off and it rarely fails, this kid has a tough road ahead of him, good luck to him

  • Krohn shouldn't talk about conservatism until he knows everything about it (including it's flaws) instead of sugar coating it. He still has a ways to go.

  • He needs to define what liberal means, because to me this sounds like he's saying that liberals don't have respect for the constitution, respect for life, less government and personal responsibility.

  • It's pretty hard to find young conservatives. But we've got this eleven year old twat that's been brainwashed by his parents!

  • Define nutsack.

  • Conservatism is about peoples rights, unless those people are poor, or gay, or brown, or non-christian.

  • @ZiegeHerr and by people he meant corporations

  • @ZiegeHerr Not true but even if it was, still better than liberalism or anything else

  • actually... in the sense of conservatism in the 20th and 21st century, of having less involvement in the government, his definiton @1:41 is spot on... being conservative doesn't mean just not wanting to change, just like being a liberal doesnt mean youre a government hating anarchist. Just becuase he's 13 doesn't mean he's wrong, because he isnt.

  • Define puberty. After he touches his first boob he'll forget all about this shit.

  • @SteakDinnerBoom So basically you're saying that he'll be like this the rest of his life.

  • @SteakDinnerBoom LMFAOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

  • Yup conservatives are the only ones who respect the constitution. Like how they tried to repeal the 14th amend. Respect for life? Like how you think abortion is so bad that even if the mother may possible die with the baby she cannot have an abortion. Personal Responsibility? Being bought by anything and everything that will give them money? I'm 14 get at me jonkron.

  • Wow. His voice was quite like McCain ... until 1:01 when its more like Ja Ja Binks...

  • "principle...conservative...ke­y...principle...conservative..­.key..." X 100

    This whole speech is just a mess of 'political jargon' thrown together. He did everything BUT define conservatism. Do yourself a favor...don't waste money buying the book. Wikipedia has a perfectly good definition of conservatism that this 'wunderkind' couldn't match in the next 40 years of his life. To give credit where its due...public speaking isn't easy, so it did take guts to stand there...even if he did speak bull

  • @Dubbel06 i met the kid. you have NO idea.

  • @Astoryofreallife That does NOT change the fact that the speech was Bull now does it? Or the fact that his definition of 'conservatism' was not a definition at all? I don't have anything against the kid, so don't take this the wrong way. You met him, maybe he showed you a side thats different from the one we see in this video

  • @Astoryofreallife or were you supporting what I said. lol...your statement seems a little ambiguous

  • @Dubbel06 supporting. :P srry.

  • This kids is all redundant when he tries to shove into us his "concept", it must be hell of a pain to read a book wrote by him.

  • Give it up, kid. You're no Michael J. Fox, and Family Ties went off the air years ago.

  • That was f**king gibberish. Jesus.

  • he's one smart cookie

  • If conservatism is about protecting people's rights, then why don't I have the right to marry the person I love or the right to volunteer in the military or the right to work in a job I love because someone doesn't like the person I love or the right to keep insurance if I have a preexisting condition or the right to... It is because the "conservatives" believe their religions outweigh my rights as a person and that their businesses outweigh my rights and that their rights outweigh my rights.

  • Funny, it sounds like conservatism sounds a lot like liberalism.

  • @fasfsdfasd That's true.

  • @fasfsdfasd

    You must've misunderstood... what I said was that because I am a conservative teenager like the kid, it makes me feel bad to say it although its the truth, that he is a fucking retard.

  • The kid makes absolutely no sense. He's just mimicking random things he's heard other people say and stringing them together. Rumor has it he no longer even considers himself a conservative and isn't interested in politics. It was clearly all a hoax a bunch of right wing dolts fell for hook, line, and sinker.

  • It is wrong that I really want to punch him repeditly even if I know he's 14?

  • Being a conservative teenager like this kid it pains me to say he is an autistic fucking faggot and is no smarter than any other kid out there, he just watches FOX all the time. Almost sounds like grover from sesame street

  • Look ! It's an idiot in a child suit ! 

  • Look ! It's an idiot in a child suit !

  • Future writer for The Nation.

  • Most of the fucksticks spewing dislike for this kid, on this message board, cannot spell correctly. This does not surprise me.

  • Actually, if you check his Twitter feed lately, Jonathan has said he has quit the conservative pundit business ("I've matured, I grew up") and he is no longer a "conservative". He now considers himself a "freethinker".

  • define autism

  • @mothstevenson rofl.

  • @mothstevenson hahahaha

  • Eugh, smug wee cunt.

  • You guys don't know anything if you don't like Jonathan. He is amazingly smart and Correct

  • Btw, this boy speaks very well, but he believe so much what he is saying that he thinks it will make it true. He is so cocky ! And laugh with me at all this old people who foster him, knowing he is their only remaining futur prospect !!

  • who let this little douce go on for 3 mins

  • jonathan krohn answers the tough questions

  • i bet he has no friends, no xbox, no computer. only books. fucking books. not even good books. just facts

  • @blabury Sorry but you're wrong, in a report for French TV i saw him.... playing the multiplayer of Halo REACH ! But I didn't manage to read his nickname.

  • He's just a kid regurgitated shit he learned, not from experience and real life. -.-"

  • press 1 button repeatly

  • It's crazy to see all of these liberals coming on here and so strongly putting this kid down. I don't find it surprising though, as this is what liberals are known for. And how much more so when they see a 13 year old that is smarter than they ever will be?

  • @chwparker just like a conservative thinking just because someone believes strongly in conservatism they must be the only ones who know anything for an example sarah Palin

  • QUEER

  • If this kid were a doing a liberal pundit thing he'd be just as odious. Just a miserable example of what it means to discuss politics in the mainstream arena now.

    But make no mistake, this is mighty odious.

  • i have no idea what this little fuck is talking about.

  • Fuck him.

  • This scam is as old as time itself. Preachers used to do the same thing with their own children which is groom them to perform in front of an audience. This kid's parents

  • i'm fifteen, and I consider myself rather political, but I don't pretend to be smarter than everyone else like this guy, or pretend to know things I don't know

  • What a horrible little cunt.

  • @peacefrog1916

    well you're a bastard

  • @peacefrog1916 you don't have to go to school with him-__-

  • @PiComposer Do you actually go to school with him? Please punch him in the face as a favour to me and the rest of the people of Scotland.

  • Roy Cohn 2.0

  • People, if you don't agree with him, then do not turn to violent and simplistic abuse. Liberal democracy is underpinned by disparate political discourse; thus, there is naturally going to be a political spectrum; left, centre and right. Each worldview has it's own positive and negative merits; it is only via discourse, mediation and negotiation that comes with democracy that can give a fair outcome. So if you harass people for their views, you are nothing more than a closet totalitarian.

  • This littel boy is damien ! He is the devil's son!

  • No matter where we stand in the political spectrum... he's surely a brilliant mind who thinks for himself. I don't understand why all of you feel so threatened by a smart mind? I say, cheers to this wonderful mind!

  • didn't know that Tea Party was pedophile...

  • wow ! Now all I need is to buy his book, so I could hit his fucking face with it :)

  • Another kid who has been learning his lesson very well and can't agree more with 'soloboricua', the principles he defends are just something already existing and derived from brainwashing coming from his environment, to put it in a nutshell, pretty pathetic indeed...

  • you people are obnoxious. do you have any respect for this little boy? he's fourteen! most of you are children probably on here listening to this and listen absent-mindedly to your parents and so you cannot even bend to this because my dad and my mom told me this. You are wasting your time on youtube, a site which is dictated by fred, smosh, nigahiga, and shanedawson, which use crude and obscene language which entertians you. Do something with your life and be an advocate to AN IMPORTANT CAUSE!

  • his voice is so fricking obnoxious

  • What are those twats clapping for? Are they actually learning something?

  • he should fucking die... choking on his daddy's semen. little cunt.

  • @keewatin427 youre discusting

  • Someone needs to beat the shit out of this kid before he becomes something real.

  • @JeremyFrumpkin yh that would be a great legal case for me to judge ill send u behind bars

  • «Respect for the constitution, respect for life, less government and [more] personal responsibility.»

    Sure; respect for the constitution [and law] is important, but less important than actually understanding it to be honest.(read; understanding why and what for it was written, and thus if it still applies to the nation)

    And can you advocate 'respect for life' and still be pro capital punishment?

  • @Hollanbot it wasn't even advocated in his speech. He expressed the same views and policies as Tom Jefferson and the democratic-republicans.

  • Fascinating psychology. That a home schooled only child masters Conservatism is perfect. It speaks to how conservatism speaks to the id. Just think in black and white, without empathy or grasp of nuance, and you get your answers. Any self-centered child could do that with enough over confidence in their intellect. He's book smart, doesn't like to share, and insulated from the challenges of real life. Just like a rich kid. Just like a Republican.

  • @DanMcCaffrey you taking the ideology from Alexander Hamiltion? that is not the principles based on a republicans or democratics. Its a federalist point of view. Have you even taken basic courses of Us history? you can certianly talk but only anger is shown no common sence. Why dont you read thomas Paines essay.

  • Aw, look. A little brainwashing victim!

  • Ugh...so gross.

  • what a monumental douchebag

  • @wickkidda you are a classy fellow

  • Lord of the FLies

  • Oh god, this kid is a total Melvin.

  • Hey look, he can parrot GOP talking points. Cool trick.

  • golly gee wilickers

  • to all who are saying he's "annoying" or a product of redneck rhetoric homeschooling....you're just jealous because he knows more about the definition of Conservatism than you, and knows more about politics in general than you!! Stop watching Jersey Shore and watch the news. You should be able to catch up to speed :)

  • @Tess825

    Anybody can learn the definition of conservatism. What's difficult is making it's principles applicable to current issues. Furthermore, while this boy articulates his firm belief in the ideology of conservatism, he fails to recognize the true happenings in this world. I doubt that he can apply conservative ideals to the real world, and what being a U.S. citizen is. As a child, he doesn't deal with war or taxes...or monotonous labor.

    Merely a child's perspective.

  • @Tess825 Why would anyone be jealous of this kid for knowing (i.e., parroting back) the definition of conservatism his overzealous parents spoonfed him?

  • @catokeeffe and you are at home. advocating your views, through a computer. While i sit here and laugh at your point of view. YOu people are to much fun. You have no clue about Us history or the real world for that matter.

  • @outstandingmedotcom The irony of what you just wrote is so overwhelming I can't stand it. Though I suppose you don't know what that word means.

  • @catokeeffe is that you honest response? can you elaborate on wht specifically?that was the worst come back ever

  • omg this kid is a great politician.

    He effectively talks for a long time criticizing what other people think and he does so without ever really showing his true beliefs. great politician, douchebag of a person.

  • @nck111488 and you use the words douchebag to prove a point. No facts or proper common sence. Do i even have to make a point. Keep listening to your mom and dad and see how far you get kid

  • your insulting your future president

  • I am a centre left myself, and while I can see he is a bit arrogant; to me if you want to get people's attention you need to be brimming with confidence. People may whine that it looks like he has a big ego, but he did get your attention didn't he? ;)

  • I just hope he sticks to conservatism, and doesn't sell out his considerable talent and intelligence to the neocon war party, eventually.

    One failing I see in who he admires, like William F. Buckley, is probably a failing of his youth. He doesn't seem to understand hypocrisy yet.

    We should all have the ability to formulate and express our beliefs so clearly; Krohn is a great testament to homeschooling.

  • I hate this kid because he's annoying not because he's a repbo. This kid is 14, I'm 16 he shouldn't give too much a shit about politics, he should worry about being a kid. I don't even care if he was liberal, he'd still be annoying as hell. Being educated in this are for those that have already completed University not a fucking 13 year-old kid!

  • @mizkex well there you go the clear and true motive of people while i watch the news take AP ushistory, AP comparative gov you are motivated to express your opinon because he is annoying well sir youll be working for anyone with a brain and can look beyond the physical traits of a person because im sure you are lacking in some or many areas

  • As soon as he opened his mouth, I figured out he is one of "those" kids. You know, those kids that think they are smarter than everyone else, and lord it over everyone. I was a nerd in school, but even I hated those kids.

  • I wonder what this kid is going to be like in the future. He is going to annoy us for the rest of our lives.

  • @dwarrren9 and ill see you at taco bell honestly people calm down hes a kid and like most politicians like obama are UNBELIEVABLY COCKY

  • Heres the 4 principals of conservatism; Fuck the poor, Fuck the Immigrants, Fuck the non christians and fuck every other country thats not us. Thats conservatism for ya bitch.

  • @McKeeverFever1988 wow and what exactly your GPA? have fun flipping burgers at burger king

  • He will change idea when he will discover his homosexuality

  • @maurho1000000

    Ken Mehlman found a way to reconcile it.

  • OMG his body language is so fucking arrogant when people clapped.

  • 60 years ago someone spoke in eaxctly the same way. His name was Adolf Schicklgruber. Disregard this racist facist at your peril.

    Bismarck did the same.

  • This kid is brainwashed

    and his voice is really damn annoying

  • @LeoFan2012 and you are brainwashed by mommy and daddy. cheeck out the lastest studies the polls between children for presidential election are almost exact to the adults who vote

  • he reminds me of that kid in class that would copy off of you and still get the question wrong.

  • i'm just impressed that this kid understands the concept of 'ideology'. Hell, I was still playing with barbies at his age :-)

  • The people who bash conservatism just need to ask themselves a very simple question:

    What exactly does the government do WELL? After the Katrina response, the Gulf Spill disaster and countless other examples....why in the world would you trust them to make decisions in your own best interest? Is the answer to give these people who screw up everything they touch more power? Think about that for a second.

  • @marinejcksn1 The government runs the military. Do you think the marines do their jobs well? Should we trust the military to represent our best interests overseas? If so, why? Why should we trust one arm of the government wholeheartedly but doubt the rest? If we're going to privatize everything as conservatives want to do, let's start with the military. Think about that for a second.

  • i know more about conservatism than this kid, and i'm a liberal. everything he said is basically the same crap every conservative says. nothing special here.

  • This kid will look back on this and CRINGE. He's just regurgitating what he's heard from Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and his pops.

  • No offense to the kid, but it shows the simple mindedness ideology of what conservatism is if a 13 year old kid can talk and write a book about it.

  • @soloboricua Well said

  • @soloboricua Not to mention what it says about the people in the audience....

  • @soloboricua

    I bet if this kid tried to read a book by Marx or Kropotkin he'd wouldn't understand any of the concepts they're trying to express. Most conservatives are on the same level as 13 year old children, which is why they don't get it either.

  • @midvalley9 Funny. I debated the concepts of Marx with him today. He showed a thorough understanding of the concepts and could quote him with no problem, while actually knowing what the quotes were about. I know for a fact he reads philosophy in his spare time, and unless one understands philosophy, there is no reason to spend time reading it. On another note, yes, he can be arrogant. However, he is undeniably brilliant.

  • @soloboricua No....he's getting down to the bare center, he's saying the facts and not beating around the bush or making things up like the news does. It is, what it is. And it's the way to preserve liberty in this great land of ours

  • @soloboricua yes the parties polcies are dummied down for the average naive american

  • @soloboricua Well obviously you don't know this kid. He's very gifted for his age, and besides, conservative ideas have always been shown to work where liberal ideas never could (which is in just about every situation).

  • If we are to use the definition of conservatism that this kid is professing, then the Democrats are just as conservatives as the Republicans. The Democrats' basic platform the past decade has been people based, whether it's gay rights or whether its "socialistic" bills they're trying to bring forward to help people. It's hard to be a Republican when I know that my ex-party has catered ONLY to the rich since 1980 by deregulating everything for rich businessmen and then giving THEM the tax breaks!

  • is there anything more annoying than a young republican?
