Adam vs "conservative" Heritage Foundation on their big-gov't foreign policy/Ron Paul 2012

[djfmafia1]

Lol i came to ask for the response also but the top comments answered that hah

[shacats626]

Notice how this guy goes from smooth talk to "ya know" every other breath when Adam calls him out on what he's REALLY about? "Stutter stutter uh, well, you see, we really want to keep the wars going uh, darn you aren't supposed to notice!" Hah! Love Kokesh!

[DoctorCapitalist]

The Heritage Foundation is just part of the "Kochtopus" which Rothbard referred to it as.

[Malbrojia]

His wise "rulers" need to be wise enough to understand I'm not their slave to be ruled.

[ACMEphotography]

bad ending, but maybe there was no more footage? I feel like this is a VHS recorded show and the tape was not long enough.

[joeldale97ii]

I wanna party with you. keep up the keeping on, Mr. Kokesh!

[willdrake1]

Ahhhhhhhhh The Heritage Foundation!

Gross

[iTellYouNoLie]

no allowing video responses?

:(

[AdamKokesh]

@iTellYouNoLie Should be on default to allow responses. Let me check.

[ElJefer]

"defending America's values".... first you have to know what America's values are. They don't include "preemtive war"

[sozfan1]

Maybe you could interview Bill Still. His last couple of videos were from OccupyDC, so you might interview him there. His youtube channel is bstill3.

[sozfan1]

Ron Paul doesn't have a plan to break the monopoly that Wall Street banks and corporations have on our government. Ending the fed and setting up a gold standard, without ending the national debt and fractional reserve lending, will accomplish nothing. So, consider a real libertarian solution and monetary reform with teeth! Vote Bill Still still2012 [dot] com

[Mattboy2388]

@sozfan1 pffftt yahoo. good luck with that

[sozfan1]

@Mattboy2388 good luck w/ what? have you watched his docu, "Secret of Oz" (bottom of the page)? how is Ron Paul going to break the grip of private banks on our country? you really haven't thought this through.

[sozfan1]

Vote for Bill Still for President, Libertarian Party. See still2012 [dot] com

[Tasadaru]

Ruler? To hell with that! The president is not suppose to be a wise ruler. He is suppose to be a representative of the people. Oh yeah, promoting big gov't spending in military waste is not limited gov't.

[FriendOregon]

The American dream was founded on the blood of the indian and the back bone of the black man. It was a dream for some but nightmare for many others.

Other than those earlier years the only form its ever truely existed in is in Coke adds...

[TheEbonicslover]

The only way to ensure poverty is Obama once again. Vote Obama :)

[TheEbonicslover]

Fuck prosperity! We need poverty :)

[asalamulekum]

I am a body language expert and I would have still liked to have seen his facial expressions b4 u cut him off.

[AmericanValues321]

Im loving this new stuff.

[SMILEYWATTZ]

WTF???!!!! why the hell did it cut OFF!!!!!!!!!!

[RonPaulRepublic]

lol

[logic109]

Where the rest of the interview shit was about go down.

[DutchsMaria]

As Ron Paul says...Defense spending is ok...Military spending is not!

[misterpc23]

Dude in blue shirt: *a word* ya know *a word* ya know *a word* ya know *a word* ya know *a word* ya know

[GodAthie]

where's the full clip? or that is about as heated as it got?

[flik221]

that guy says ya know a lot

[kuaichang]

adam kokesh is a true patriot

[MrVernam]

Is Adam getting more buff by the day?

[iwanttocrashmybike]

Thanks,good to keep these videos under 5 minutes if you can,makes it easier for most "Busy" people(wink,wink)

Hmm,wish I knew why put the wink wink there?

[jwhitenstall]

It still amuses me that it is referred to as 'national defense', same as in England they have the 'Ministry of Defense'. Newspeak at its best.

[TheGreatReckoning]

Saving the Goldman Sachs dream.

[reveilleforradicals]

Good work Adam!

[23cev93]

Conservative and liberal are terms to keep the dog chasing it's tail forever.

[FistsOfFury21]

I dont get how Iraqis/Afghans resisting a foreign military occupation makes them terrorists! If the United States was invaded by any country for any reason we would be them!!!!! Fighting to the death to get our country back and called terrorists and insurgents by the invaders. Even if you believe the official story for 911 not one hijacker was Afghan or Iraqi. How can you blame these people and demonize them for resisting a foreign military occupation when you know damn well we would to?

[NattligMelodi]

Adam, please put the entire interview up.

[ForLiberty888]

"Defend Americans interests, fight the terrorists". Question: who determines what American interests are and who the terrorists are? Obviously not American people, rather few politicians who are in power.

[natritious1]

I fucking hate conservatives. They're worse than the libtards

[st4ticblu3]

@natritious1 No you are just confusing conservative with neoconsevative. Neocons just call themselves conservatives just like progressives call themselves liberals.

A real liberal and a real conservative aren't bad. It's the wolves in sheep's clothing we have to worry about.

[arealbladeofgrass]

I'm digging your scene Adam and I admire your patience, integrity and diplomacy when interviewing and exposing these dangerous people ! Go well Man !!!!

[DaveParnell24]

liberty and freedom as a founding principle <--- for rich, white, landowning, males who a large percentage of owned slaves.

John Adams as a wise ruler <---- Alien and Sedition Acts which punished by law any criticism brought against the president of the US regardless of truth or falsehood. Yeah, great leader that one was.

[pantera2012]

Even though Ron Paul is gaining some attention and notoriety, there's still a "I like Ron Paul, but..." syndrome in this country. So many people are still caught up in the whole "Well I'm a Republican, so therefore I have to agree with every mainstream Republican idea. If not, then I'm a huge Liberal that loves President Obama" idea.

[wmarcus1203]

Ron PizzzzzzAULLLLL

[GrayGhost8]

Whenever I hear these Neocons say "Thank you for your service" it reminds me of the line in the the Bad Religion song that goes "Handshakes are nothing but a subtle fuck you". It's meaningless to a guy that has PTSD or to someone who has lost a loved one.

[prescottbill]

It's the same old crap thinking "We would rather fight them there, then fight them here on American soil". That is how they classify these endless wars as "defensive" actions. They defend America by making up enemies, kicking the hornets nest, then jumping in with flags waving and guns blazing. In the mid east, it's all about the oil. Easy Arab oil paid for with worthless fiat currency, saving our domestic oil for the end of the oil age.

[Uriel1816]

Interesting how the person being interviewed was very careful not to mention Ron Paul's name.

[donpengin]

Everyone should watch the new Alex Jones interview with Charlotte Iserbyt. It is Amazing. These, "conservatives," don't have two brain cells to rub together. Charlotte tells you why. Very enlightening. You rock Kokesh.

[AVIONBLANC]

The Heritage Foundation is a neo con organization. Everyone is for a strong defense (except for the New World Order folks who run the country). The issue isn't a strong defense, which RP is for, it is the growth of the American Empire and interventionism. Defense yes, interventionism no!

[touber2011]

...a wise ruler...American Power...I think shwmusic got it about right! :l

[sjustinb]

When Ron Paul starts talking foreign policy that is when I turn volume down to mute

[jackbdead]

Wish this video wasnt edited to end right when Ron Paul's name was dropped after Rigas' claims to want a wise man in the WH. What was his reaction? He's a damn fool if he doesnt agree with Ron Paul.

[AdamKokesh]

@jackbdead No reaction, more evasion of the question, the answer to which might have been too painful. "We're shills for the military industrial complex!"

[bcsizemore]

@AdamKokesh

Man, Adam, I trust your editing skills, but I would really like to see the full interview.

[myeyepie]

@AdamKokesh I love Ron Paul. Seriously. But even I have to admit that he is his own problem when it comes to getting elected. I think at least a majority of republican primary voters could be swayed to his foreign policy position if he just changed his approach a bit. Not sacrificing principles. But simply highlighting what we can all agree on(conservative constitutional folks) that we should defend ourselves, not subsidize other nations, bring home our troops and strengthen our own borders

[myeyepie]

@myeyepie Continuing, I will admit my skin crawls and my ire is raised when Ron starts in quoting Al Quaeda or Osama Bin Laden for their reasons that they attacked etc. Right or wrong it works counter to his goal of convincing people. Yes he is right we need to come home. That is enough. It really is enough for us. Our only reason to be there is to protect Oil. So just promise to drop all Oil regulations and let there be a feeding frenzy on it. I want Ron to win but he just pisses people off

[nosferotica1]

@myeyepie

Um... Why? Someone kills 3000+ people and gives you a reason, why the fuck would it be wrong? THEY TELL YOU WHY, it would be stupid to not listen to them.

It's their fucking motivation, for crying out loud. Why get pissed, that's the stupidest thing in the world.

Considering their reason is building military bases in their countries, dropping oil regulations would not solve a fucking thing, so... There you go, making my point for me.

[myeyepie]

@nosferotica1 I don't believe what a muderous pyschopath tells me his crazy reasons are. It's irrelevant to me because I DONT BELIEVE ANYTHING HE SAYS. I consider him an enemy and all he says to be possible misinformation. Islamic SOB's are at war most everywhere in the world that their numbers become large enough. They even war against each other! They arent credible. The point is it doesnt matter what you or I think. We can agree that we should bring the troops home. stick to that and win!

[nosferotica1]

@myeyepie

A murderous psychopath does things without reason, and I'm hard pressed to believe that 19 people were willing to give their live for no reason whatsoever.

I don't know why people are so quick to dismiss the conviction necessary to be willing to die, and no you're going to die in the mission you carry out. More importantly, they are telling us why they are doing it and you want to turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to their motives. THAT is a closed mind.

[TravistheHuman]

@AdamKokesh How long was it?

[Brawlocaust]

@AdamKokesh "And the Israelis!" Not to get off topic here, but has anyone actually checked to see what percent of Rick Santorum's campaign funds come from Israeli-tied organizations? I'm guessing it's a lot.

[Maat922]

How can anyone claiming to support the ideals of the US Constitution simultaneously support anyone other than Ron Paul? Who else is there? Herman "gun rights are best left to the states" Cain (who obviously doesn't understand anything about the constitution), or Mitt "force you into contract" Romney? Or maybe Rick "There's a border?" Perry? WTF is the matter with these people??

This org has GOT to be controlled opposition. 5 bucks says you could follow the money right back to the CFR.

[tmac9938]

@Maat922 wouldnt doubt it. i think Beck is controlled opposition. i think there's lots of those groups out there. a place where people can vent a little energy, enough to subdue. what i'm waiting for next is for the FBI/CIA to instigate violence at these OWS protests. possibly even bomb a business and say it was the protestors. a lot of black ops taking place right now.

[Maat922]

@tmac9938 Definitely.

[HuxleyWasRight]

the troops know that US foreign policy has nothing to do with defence, that's why they support ron paul, they see first hand that the current foreign policy actually harms national defence, they see it up close, they can see the hypocrisy and contradiction.

[vechorik]

How I came to love Ron Paul. I wondered why Bush and Obama didn't close the border. I watched constant war and remembered my loved ones who have died. I began to ask "WHY?" My questions led to answers -- Ron Paul has them all. I fear for America and the green agenda (global government). I've never loved a politician before Dr. Paul. He will be the greatest president of this century -- the one that saved the Republic! Work hard people! Help Dr. Paul get elected!

[roseagain2]

Ron Paul!

[thedrj2009]

This guy made no sense at all. More scripted practice in front of the mirror, dude! Great job Adam.

[shwmusic]

Unfortanetly the Heritage foundation was put in to prop up the left right paradigm and keep everyone distracted so they would ignore the criminals running our government. You don't hear them standing up for constitutional foreign policy and working to eliminate the military industrial complex.  If they were not a schill for the NWO then they would be supporting Ron Paul.

Ron Paul or a 3rd world dictatorship...you choose

[ShoveTyranny]

The Heritage Foundation is controlled opposition. On the surface they sound like small-government libertarians, but once you take a close look at them, they're just as "Israel-first" and warmongering as the neocons.

[marniespeaks]

wtf

did the guy disagree"?

[bigginmon]

you know when they start spouting the "you know's" that you got em.  You were very polite, Adam. If I wanted to hear about "First Principles," I would listen to Glen Beck's BS lol. We have met the enemy, and the enemy is us.

These guys talk about the Constitution and stuff, until it comes down to the wars for oil and empire, the police state, and anything close to sound money. I almost signed up for Heritage until I heard Sean Hannity endorse them.

[RandomShellAccount]

Every time I see Adam Kokesh I think "Boy, I need to hit the gym"

[Danster82]

the president is not a ruler, the position of the presidency has been exasperated beyond its means.

[xMiCHaElGaBRiEL]

lol Why was the interview cut?

[RebelRadius]

The Heritage Foundation gave Cheney an award.

[WhackTheWax]

that was short.  didn't go well?

[41outof40]

Uh-oh, Adam's rocking the gun-cam.

[travz21]

I'm seeing Ron Paul speak in about 8 hours in MN. Fuck yeah.

[vincentninja68]

ERM UM UHHH for 3 minutes.

[millerlcplusmc22]

If this shit gets out of hand, I will stand with you Adam. I'm not as nice as you are but I will fight with you. Semper Fi.

[JonathanJWB1]

the only good conservatives are libertarians, the rest are all asshats

[RonDukeSilverSwanson]

Strong national defense is fine. It's all this national offense that is pissing me off.

[RosenKrantz666]

gotta love that FAKE 'thank you for your service' patting on the shoulder, as IF that's gonna warm a BigGvt Statist RINO into Adam's heart. LOL

[TheCaptainSlappy]

So a corporation saving a corporation is the corporate saviour of your corporate soul? My my...how..."McDonald's" of you, "Citizen". Maybe Ron "Paytriot" Paul will run the Waffle Hut Model if he "wins". SWEET.

[inabluemoon1]

Ron Paul is to secular for conservitives and he does not understand that Islamists will kill all who does not submit .

[jmtomes2001]

@inabluemoon1 Voting Ron Paul anyways

All of you saying he can't win or will not win Just Vote Anyways DumbAss why debated it just fuking vote! We havent even start voting and you idiots are counting votes already WTF?

[inabluemoon1]

@jmtomes2001 So hostile

[tripzero0]

Adam, you are stacked man. What you eating? Seriously!?

[tripzero0]

I wish there was more...

[aratsky2]

why did u cut the interview off dude?

[ryno99]

Heritage Foundation= Globalist/Zionist front group. Make these assholes fight the wars they are too big of pussies to fight

[sgtpetersen]

ADAM... Your F"N HUGE. Good God! Keep up the work. Take the hill, Marine.

[dwaydway1]

hey ADASM to mofo... dish out some more videos bro im a junkie 4 urn shite...

[jgidd]

It really seems silly to me for someone without military experience to call the shots of the military. This Heritage dude probably has never even been out of the USA..

[00puddles00]

Well done!

America's values and interests should be limited to protecting individual rights. A Ron Paul Presidency would be the most effective to ensure that human rights and safety are protected. Vote for Paul in the primaries!

[dwaydway1]

ADAM is a cool kat!!!!!

[1984vs1776]

Neo-con alert!!! Abandon ship!!!

[gatersaw]

Heritage Zionists/warmongers.

[stevewellz]

Well, until Ron Paul wins the primary, that is the guy we need to convince/ win over. Paul would shred Obama in a debate, hardest part is getting him the nomination.

[watertonrivers]

You can't argue with a sick neo-conservative mind...And thus I implore you to vote Ron Paul 2012!!

[pbfrank13]

Look at Adam's death stare 2:00 on while this guy responds. He stares the shit out of everyone he interviews, almost like hes trying to get them nervous and slip.

[degenret01]

Ron Paul or bust, the others are no better than fucktard Obama. ~SSG Murphy J, ret.

[RangerMcFriendlie]

His response was an incoherent mess.

[zalida100]

@RangerMcFriendlie ",,wise rulers...defend national interests....national values..." This is all just obfuscatory, fictional nonsense, not based on any kind of logical argument or derivation. e.g. - what is a "national value" and how do you defend it, and against what? If this guy feels his values are threatened by someone, and he thinks some guns can protect his values, I guess........... oh. well, never mind:)

[InsaneRevolt]

It was just getting juicy, that felt like a teaser. Posting more later?

[hellsunicorn]

The Heritage Foundation has a lot of problems, not the least of which being their steadfast view that Russia was better off under Lenin than under the Czars, something that is grossly contradicted by a common sense understanding of the economic history of that region before and after the October Revolution. Lew Rockwell pretty well lays out where these guys miss the boat on foreign interventionism, and its just as bad as many Neocons.

[michaelpshipley1]

Is there more?

[slhines7]

No matter what you are told about not voting for Ron Paul, DISREGARD and just throw it into Drawer 13, for he is our last chance for saving our RAPED and PILLAGED Country.

[blapgatify]

@slhines7 But if Ron Paul doesn't get elected or he cannot get what he wants done in office, will you please disregard when others ask you afterward to support the political process? After all you do believe he is our last chance. I think there is a lot of benefit in throwing political action as a way to achieve real change in the world. And be much more productive (and happy).

[slhines7]

@blapgatify Sadly & unfortunately, Ron Paul will more than likely NOT get elected due to the entire "SYSTEM" being rigged (corrupt), let alone his so called just "wishes" and "desires" getting voted into power.

[TheCaptainSlappy]

@slhines7 This is the logic I love. The system is rigged (which it is), so if he doesn't win, it is the system's fault. But if he DOES win...in a rigged system...well, it's just magic, right? Even though he has been in for 30 years...no alarm bells go off in Zombie skulls out here. Freaky!

[slhines7]

@TheCaptainSlappy I take it that you are not a supporter of Ron Paul! Yes, the system is entirely rigged and just know that Ron Paul is the only credible and viable Candidate. No, if and when Paul doesn't win, it is not exactly the so called "systems' fault. That all depends on what you personally define the system to be though. If you are regarding the Corporate, Bankster, and Bilderberg controlled media, then yes, you are right.

[TubingWithMyGnomies]

@slhines7 What happens if he doesn't get elected?

[slhines7]

@TubingWithMyGnomies If the only honest and fair running candidate/Politician does not get elected, then we can only expect to see the exact same thing occur Things will only get worse in other words regarding debt, spending, welfarism, etc.

[TubingWithMyGnomies]

@slhines7 For the record, I am voting for Ron Paul. But I'm asking, what are Ron Paul supporters going to do if he doesn't get elected? What if his poll numbers are manipulated or the election is rigged? Are we just going to go "Oh well, he was our last hope. Well, back to the grind of everyday life." Is he really our last hope? I support Ron Paul but if he does not get elected, we still have options and people who can do things. Our collective destiny can not depend on one man.

[PairoftheSocks]

@TubingWithMyGnomies I agree, but the more unstable the population becomes, the more we need some sort of principled leader to bring about a peaceful revolution.

[TubingWithMyGnomies]

@PairoftheSocks Well, I just hope that when elections come around, the citizen unite to MAKE SURE the fucking polls aren't rigged.

[slhines7]

@TubingWithMyGnomies Glad to hear u will b voting for Ron Paul as well. We can all expect more of the exact same and that the inevitable collapse will be even that much worse, due to it being postponed for that much longer. The writing is on the wall and we can either go in the right direction or not. he is our last hope for he is the only one that is not bought, paid for, & controlled by the CFR/Illuminati/Banks/Corporati­ons.

[jmtomes2001]

@TubingWithMyGnomies we continue on our spiraling downfall to the pits of hell. What people dont realize is the fallout that results from civilians dying during military actions. for example if a country/nato comes here and bombed the hell out of your family and friends your telling me you wouldn't seek revenge?

[janenba352]

that was a short interview

[ZaxIntel]

4th

[YaHuWaHservant]

Our foreign Policy needs to focus on our National Values, National Interests, and National Security. Why do we teach people that Hitler was such a bad guy again lol?

[FrameByFrameStudios]

Heritage foundation...yawn.

True freedom starts from within. Not some corporate front group.

[Dariuszdavi]

RON PAUL 2012
