Hey, Gravelin08, how does it feel now that Gravel has not only not won the Democratic nomination, but even the Libertarians didn't want him? I realize how hard it is for supporters when their candidate doesn't get the nomination. What do you think Gravel will do now?
OK, what does all that mean MercShinobi? I just stated some hard truths. Gravel simply didn't have the support or donations that Obama or Hillary had and he didn't win. In fact, he didn't even come close to winning. These things happen.
I see that kind of thing happen everyday Majority over-ruling the minority.. And the Majority are all idiots. I found it disrespectful that you can mock someone for wanting too make a differance. Political puppets. all he wants too is make life better for the general public not Corporate military. I can go on & on. The goverment spends millions on ad campaigns and say all this BS. His ad was cheap and affordable & when the time comes he speaks the truth on morality. I guess thats my opinion.
I never mocked Gravel, although I think this ad was a waste of time and money. As I told someone else, you have to clearly spend a message with the limited time you have in your ads. I don't care if Obama or McCain was in this ad, I wouldn't make me run and vote for them.
Mr. Gravel is a great man. It's too bad Americans just aren't great enough to recognize this is the truth. He could have put his feet up and just watched our nation crash. Instead, he has spent a lot of his time trying to come up with solutions to our political problems. For that he is due respect and honor. But, apparently, the majority of the people in this nation no longer understand respect and honor. It is very sad.
I have to agree. That really sucks and even the look on his face, he knows it's going to suck. Why even bother? Why waste the time and energy on a video like that when he could have said what he plans on doing for our country?
Sadly, though, it looks as if he's not going to win. And that begs the question: Why hasn't he given up yet?
OK, maybe you want to add a more intelligent comment instead of childish remarks? After all, how am I ignorant? Let's face some hard truths: Gravel hasn't even come in third place and he has no delegates. It's that simple. No delegates, no Democratic nomination.
Now it would be naive to think he's running to win the Democratic nomination. A couple months ago I'm sure many of his supporters and himself didn't think it was the case. The question is, why both staying in the race when he's not getting any media attention? Who is he really speaking to? Preaching to the choir isn't really going to help this country.
I did realize that and you should be grateful that because I'm a professional journalist, I'm not going to report or tell the media how you told me what an "ignorant son of a bitch." Here is some friendly advice: If you don't like hard truths said about your candidate, don't curse that person out.
And if you're going to curse at that person, make sure they're not some spiteful journalist.
Now, if there are things really going on behind the scenes, then my readers would love to hear about it.
I'll give you an adjective for that noun: obnoxious. (I'm not a staffer.) Do you specialize in negative criticism? Oh, and just for your information, in life and in politics, for those who won't use any means to justify the ends in order to win (like Rove, Cheney/Bush), it's not always simply (or only) about the end result of winning or losing, it's about what you do while you're going somewhere that matters. And, later, what happens as a result of what you did.
You can call me obnoxious but I'm just stating facts about Gravel, Ron Paul and Nader in my column. And yesterday, Ron Paul all but said he is quiting. Just read my column.
The truth is that none of these candidates have the delegates, the financial support or the big support base that Obama or McCain have. It's that simple. Hey, and I like what Ron Paul has to say but that doesn't change the fact that politically, he's a loser in this presidential race.
Basically what you are doing is just calling some people's candidates losers. It's not helpful. It is obnoxious. Why would you do this particularly when mainstream media has censored Mike Gravel? He didn't have the money to buy time on the media. If he had the money, he could have received more support. So basically you are just piling on a guy who has done and continues to try to do so much good for Americans. You don't even talk about his ideas. To me, that makes YOU the loser.
Wait a minute, you just said that he doesn't have money for ads yet he wasted his time with this one? Instead of showing people he can build a fire, couldn't he have used it more wisely and told people what he's going to be doing?
Now, I agree that mainstream media needs to be more objective and give equal interview time to Gravel. But He's not going to win, so politically speaking, he's a loser. There are winners and there are losers. In this particular race, he's losing badly. Part 1
Part 2 Now I haven't gone into any great detail of any of the candidate's platforms because as I said in another column awhile back, it doesn't do me any good to speculate on those matters during the primaries when neither party has picked a candidate.
I usually do that after they did. Sadly, as much as I want to, I don't have the time to do that. Besides, you probably wouldn't like what I would have to say about some of the things Gravel has said.
He does have other videos. You call yourself a reporter but don't know there is an explanation of the videos made called Rock and Fire? Interesting...what else is new in the world of today's make believe journalism where fiction covers the truth?
I know the explanation but as you can see from other's comments, they don't get it. It's Advertising 101: Use your time to send your message effectively and make sure the audience understands it.
He simply wasted his time with it when he could have spent it better telling us why he's different from the other candidates or what his plans are.
He's already done that. National Initiative would make people lawmakers just like Congress. He's different because he wants to end military domination of our society and the world. He will get troops out of Iraq in 120 days. Windmills for electricity. Mag lev trains for transportation. He's different because he truly values human lives and is not willing to throw them away in some insanity called Vietnam or Iraq or Iran. He never wastes his time. 4 honorary degrees in law and public policy
What's his plan for Iraq once the insurgents and Iran take over because he pulled our troops out too early? Why did he say in one video he doesn't mind making drugs legal but doesn't offer a plan as to how to counteract the increase of drug users?
One of many things that I could have blasted him on but I didn't. And he may have made speakable videos but no one would waste their time making this single one.
You're not really interested in the answers to these questions from me. You're simply interested in wasting my time. Mike Gravel has already answered these questions. The answers are already out there if you look. Goodbye.
PLEASE go to "wikipedia(dot)org", then look up the "national initiative"! THEN, go to "ni4d(dot)us/people/gravel2(dot)htm"! You'll be GLAD you did!!! THEN, PLEASE PASS IT ON!!!
it's hard to campain when the media works against you. god bless mike Gravel. if you want to make a change, the people can! tell your friends about this man, tell everyone. we can change things, why not start here?
I already started spreading the word. Many ppl don't even know who Gravel is but if we all work together and continue spreading the word, we will make a difference. It's time for a big positive change in America.
Have you watched any of the videos in which he speaks? You know..dialogue? He is articulate and states opinions rather than dodging around questions Clinton cleverly does.
"We're doing campaign ads in my school program.."
This guy is on a low budget and maybe he didnt go to a school program for doing impressive ads. Maybe he's more interested in real issues rather than looking good and assuaging peoples' emotions and fears for votes.
It's disgusting how the Democratic party has become a pimp to secure the "woman" vote, the "black" vote and the "poor people" vote. Meanwhile, neither of the two remaining candidates will help either women, minorities or poor people once in power. Mike Gravel will.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you people who take this guy seriusly are insane. his videos reflect zero political opinions ans he is just and overall weird person. he has no chance whatsoever and should stop wasting his time and money with these idiotic campaign ads.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
wow. this is a very bizarre ad... we're doing campaign ads in my school's film program and this does absolutely nothing for me. tells me nothing about his platform or makes any emotional appeal whatsoever. to be honest, i'm a little bit scared of a man who can take this ad seriously...
If you happen to have a conscious then I suggest you go out and Vote for GRAVEL or RON PAUL but if you don't then, go out and Vote for the "History making" Clinton or Obama...
I'm a Gravel/Paul Supporter but I hate to break it to EVERYONE else that Supports these Candidates but, get ready for FOUR YEARS of Hillary or Barack Obama.... It's becoming very obvious that we're gonna have a Black Man or a Woman in the White House. :(
But if you don't want that to happen then, Spread the word about Gravel or Ron Paul A.S.A.P!
It may very well come to pass. Though race and gender are hardly issues, it is a good idea to get a History making lackey into the White House because it makes the whole thing more believable. But enough logical people CAN make a difference. Don't just maintain the ignorance is bliss apathy. If you really believe in a person's campaign and what they stand for, make your voice heard. Don't align yourself with a party (or even a flag!). Be an individual and make your voice heard.
Some people are so concerned about "wasting" their vote or voting for a loser. There is a solution for both these problems: Vote for Mike Gravel. You win. He wins. We win.
How is that possible? Politically, he's a loser. He isn't even close to getting second place much less third. The hard truth is, he doesn't have the backing or support the other's have.
I just wrote a column about it and I think candidates like Gravel and Ron Paul, and even Nader, should just step out and work for change another way.
And despite what Gravel2008 has said, unless Gravel hit the lottery and has God's backing, I don't see him winning in 08.
what a horrible commercial, mike, im a combat cameraman and film editor and i will do a commercial for you for free with much better quality. your words will get you into office, not walking around some park!
If Americans are as dumb as rocks, which many believe they are and some comments prove, then Gravel cannot become President. If Americans are smarter than rocks, then Gravel will become President. In any case, some day the National Initiative will become law.
If my fellow Americans were smarter than rocks, they'd stop voting all together and say fuck the democracy we're allowing ourselves to be enslaved in. But I digress...
While I thoroughly empathize with the need for self expression, something more than mere rejection is needed...like, for instance, Gravel's parachute, the National Initiative. Not this, not that is not enough.
Dennis Kucinich and Mike Gravel are the only complete truth tellers left in the race.
Kucinich has a new youtube update news show. Check it out at "watch?v=WnwwqiDzcjU&NR=1"
ABC and NBC have formed an actual, overt "conspiracy" to shut these gentlemen out of any public debates. The Nevada Supreme court just ruled in favor of the networks, citing their "first Amendment right to free speech" as reason they can shut candidates up!?
Yes, he could win the nomination if he were given a fair chance to compete with the other Dem candidates. More importantly, I think he could win the votes of Americans and become President. He's the only candidate who is holding the hearts of millions in his hands.
There's an expression that a nation is not defeated as long as the hearts of the women are not on the ground. Mine is dipping low. If we cannot resurrect human sympathy and compassion, we are lost. Focusing on the "real" value of money is like chasing shadows. It has no real value. It's a medium of exchange.
I can't understand why this man is doing so terribly. People want change. They get that with Obama. But they don't get experience. People want experience, they get that with Clinton, but they don't get change. Mike Gravel has more experience than Clinton and would bring about more change than Obama ever would. He proved that one man CAN make a difference, by ending the Vietnam draft.
Yeah, but that's kind of a nothing job. And Mike Gravel has been in politics since the late 1960's. And before politics he was in the military. So he knows how the military works first hand and will bring his knowledge to our military and its policy.
It's not QUANTITY that matters, it's QUALITY. It's not smooth talk that matters but substance and experience and knowledge. That's just one reason why Obama is DIScounted and Mike Gravel is counted. Rock on Mr. Gravel. People told Jack Johnson he'd never be heavy weight champion of the world and he became heavy weight champion anyway!
Yes, quality matters, but this is a presidential race. Quantity matters too. If hardly anyone votes for Gravel then he can't become president, no matter how high quality he is.
People who are betting on which HORSE is going to win the Presidential election have already decided they are voting for innie meenie miny mo or Tweedledee/Tweedledum. People with brains, heart and courage will vote for Gravel. Let's just see how many there are, why don't we?
You were originally talking about Obama's quantity of experience without regarding to what type of experience he had. Also, he's only 42 years old in addition to not having had enough of the right experience/s or the maturity to be President. People will vote for Gravel. If you all weren't so scared of that, why would you have to keep reminding people to continue to disempower themselves?
I happen to think open-mindedness is a great quality in a President! Mr. Gravel is as open minded as the current President is close-minded. What a refreshing change! Feel the breeze...180 degrees, Mr. Gravel, 180 degrees.
why doesn't any body realize the crookedness? George Bush, Dick Cheney, John Kerry, and Barrack Obama are all COUSINS! Same crap from the same bloodline. WAKE UP PEOPLE! vote for MIKE GRAVEL!
No problem. I love this man, he is honest and actually cares for us as a people. If he does not make it as our president I wish he would find an inhabited piece of land and start another country. I will gladly move where ever that may be. This country needs him!
Funny. I was actually thinking something like that earlier today. In the meantime, will keep hoping that people will soon realize just how powerful they can be and they will turn from darkness and toward the sun so our children and their children may live in light again. Such a beautiful world, this one.
Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich & Mike Gravel have all been banned from critical speeches and debates as well as receiving negative or limited media exposure. I'm sick of whores for the rich taking the white house. I'm sick of stupid people being controlled by the media. Make a STAND! Vote for 'outside' candidates with INTEGRITY!
You are secret service or sect perhaps,however you are correct,he does not have the finances and most are offended by someone who speaks the truth.The CIA governs the U.S. which is unfortunate.Peace
No. You don't stand a chance. You're not running. He is. He stands a chance. So I say. So it is. The people will decide. Whether they let the parties and the media tell them what to do or whether they think for themselves. The people will decide. It's what people do with their power that matters.
sorry dude, but u arent going to win...you can just see it coming...its either clinton,obama,edwards,ron paul(maybe), and maybe huckabee(probably not!)
More than 50% of eligible voters don't vote. What if they do this time? What if they don't vote for one of the mainstream top tear candidates? What if the votes ARE counted properly? Then we will have CHANGE. Y'ALL too many people sacrified too much to get the DAMN vote. Were they stupid? VOTE! and make sure it's counted properly. They have the money and the propoganda. We have the numbers.
It's really interesting to see how many Americans are spoonfed information. So when they get to a video like this, they don't understand. TV creates attention deficit disorders. TV shrinks brains. TV is propaganda by the rich to control the poor.
Why would they unite? Paul would never be able to accomplish anything as president, except for Iraq, but even then Iraq will play out under Dem-Congress's orders. Dem-Congress (Including most republicans) will not allow anything else he has planned: Demolishing the IRS, CIA, FBI, etc. This guy is just a "protest" vote; like voting for Ralph Nader. Nothing will be accomplished for 4 more years (Of course all the Paulnuts will disagree). But I won't have to worry about this, it'll never happen.
That's why Mike Gravel's National Initiative needs to be enacted. This will allow ordinary citizens to make laws. Are you in support of it ? Have you voted for it?
I am still undecided. I am not sure if allowing a majority-Christian nation of citizens to "make laws" is such a good idea right now.. The Christian right is becoming to involved in politics.. I'm afraid of something like this.. What kind of laws will citizens try to inact? Got a link?
One I'd like to see is that the people can impeach the President, VP, Cabinet Members if they break the laws and don't uphold the Constitution during office through a national vote. They could also remove Congressional officials who fail to uphold their Congressional duties. Google National Initiative (ni4d)
Well, if it's for removing a President/VP by a national vote.. I'm all for it after this republican administration. But for making national laws... that doesn't sit too well for me. We've got a lot of not-so-bright people in this country (as does any country).
I agree with Mr. Gravel, the people are smarter than the current lawmakers in Congress. At least, we would have the interests of ordinary people in mind when the laws are proposed and passed. Right now, we don't have effective representation. The people are rowing but the direction has been predetermined.
this vidio is a cheap try at making a Ron Paul style clip. The problem is theres no substance to this vidio. It doesnt say anything of substance. What am I supposed to vote for him for? Because he can make a campfire? Wow.
...but in his defense he has alot of really good ideas. His anti-secrecy stance is great. I just cant stop thinking that the whole rock tossing thing was destroying evidence for Gary Condit.
okay, this vid is only for those who like him anyway.. no "real" info about him but..
you get a "nice" impression hehe he's cooler than the republicans, cooler than BUSH but maaaaybe Obama would be the right choice for America (I'm from Germany) "one people" and so on... dunno
-my opinion but I'm open to learn more and change my mind-
I actually liked Mike Gravel. He seems to grumpy and nutty to be president though. lol. He seems like the kinda guy who chases kids away from his house with a rake, screaming "stay off my lawn!"
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This idiot claimed that all our soldiers died in vein! I think this add speaks for itself in that this guy is a fucking retard disconnected from reality
Tell me what they where fighting for in Vietnam. Communism, That is nothing bad and vietnam is still communist so what did all those soliders die for. It was politics as well as Iraq is a way to get the oil. so there you go...
Mike Gravel would be a way better president in my point of view than the other higher candidates and such a caring man and i definitely have his vote, but i gotta say, there is no way he could win this race... Hes up by 1 percent in the polls, being last with the other fewer candidates, People need to recognized him more and his message to america
Only miracle could help him and i need you all to spread the word about him
Yes, there IS a way he could win the race. People could stop saying that and believing that nonsense. Has the media persuaded you of who you should vote for? The candidate who will win is the candidate who gets the most support from the people (money and votes)! That could be Mike Gravel. Please focus on what's possible and just send money to his campaign so more people can learn about how we could have REAL POSITIVE CHANGE INSTEAD OF REAL NEGATIVE REPETITION.
Every man who wasn't drafted since the Nixon administration owes Gravel his vote. Gravel is the only candidate who marched in the Gay Parade in SF, yet is from an earlier generation than that other exellent elder statesman, Ron Paul. You want a man with more courage? Show him to me.
I do like Mike for some of his stances, but he does have a big socialist side too. I have to ask WTF was he thinking staring into the camera like a creepy uncle? Cool, he likes the outdoors. Great, but what does he think about American economic policy, the declining dollar, and our massive inflation. I don't know. But I do know he can build a helluva campfire.
Why don't you get add'l info instead of just relying on this one video? The info is there. You just need to look for it. If you look at the video where Mike EXPLAINS the two videos (Rock and Fire), you will HEAR why he was staring at the camera for 1 min 10 seconds. That way you won't have to think too much or use your imagination to come up with an explanation.
Way to jump to conclusions. I didn't rely on just this video to form an opinion on him. But given the tough nature of a campaign, do you really think it is wise to create videos where you have to create videos to explain other videos? Plus, he supports universal health care AKA wealth redistribution. I do love watching him badger Clinton and Obama though.
wow, all of you who say that Gravel is a "fag" or a "moron" should spend a few minutes of your busy self-centered life to look into his campaign. This man wants to end the war in Iraq, NOW, not eventually like the rest of the democratic candidates. And, I'm sure some of you, if not all, like to smoke weed, well if for no other reason, vote for Mike Gravel because he will legalize marijuana. Just do some investigation before you shut him down.
"This man wants to end the war in Iraq, NOW, not eventually like the rest of the democratic candidates." Er...how about Dennis Kucinich? He was the only candidate that voted against the damned war in the first place. He'd end it right away too.
Dennis Kucinich approach? Put through a House Resolution for impeachment. He knows he can't get enough sponsors. He gets publicity. Nothing happens. Mike Gravel approach? Make a law to cut off funding. Then it's a felony to keep troops in Iraq. 120 days troops are out.
yeah i gotta aggree anyone who is backed by the CFR or Christians United For Israel.THese people take religion to a scary level..they actually pray for a king that you cant question....we had that in our history already and we got the hell away from it..but whatever lol good luck United States Citzens ..I think we all will need it.
Watch Mike Gravel walk through the wilderness. Watch Mike Gravel collect some wood. Watch Mike Gravel then burn that wood. Watch Mike Gravel stare aimlessly into the camera. Vote for Mike Gravel!
sadly.. he's the most radical, most honest candidate out there. if you want to hate... go vote for obama or clinton. god bless gravel for being like you. human.

What's his plan for Iraq once the insurgents and Iran take over because he pulled our troops out too early? Why did he say in one video he doesn't mind making drugs legal but doesn't offer a plan as to how to counteract the increase of drug users?
One of many things that I could have blasted him on but I didn't. And he may have made speakable videos but no one would waste their time making this single one.

"his videos reflect zero political opinion"
Have you watched any of the videos in which he speaks? You know..dialogue? He is articulate and states opinions rather than dodging around questions Clinton cleverly does.
"We're doing campaign ads in my school program.."
This guy is on a low budget and maybe he didnt go to a school program for doing impressive ads. Maybe he's more interested in real issues rather than looking good and assuaging peoples' emotions and fears for votes.

It may very well come to pass. Though race and gender are hardly issues, it is a good idea to get a History making lackey into the White House because it makes the whole thing more believable. But enough logical people CAN make a difference. Don't just maintain the ignorance is bliss apathy. If you really believe in a person's campaign and what they stand for, make your voice heard. Don't align yourself with a party (or even a flag!). Be an individual and make your voice heard.

Some people are so concerned about "wasting" their vote or voting for a loser. There is a solution for both these problems: Vote for Mike Gravel. You win. He wins. We win.
gravelin08 3 years ago
How is that possible? Politically, he's a loser. He isn't even close to getting second place much less third. The hard truth is, he doesn't have the backing or support the other's have.
I just wrote a column about it and I think candidates like Gravel and Ron Paul, and even Nader, should just step out and work for change another way.
And despite what Gravel2008 has said, unless Gravel hit the lottery and has God's backing, I don't see him winning in 08.

You were originally talking about Obama's quantity of experience without regarding to what type of experience he had.

cox1356 4 years ago
One I'd like to see is that the people can impeach the President, VP, Cabinet Members if they break the laws and don't uphold the Constitution during office through a national vote. They could also remove Congressional officials who fail to uphold their Congressional duties. Google National Initiative (ni4d)
gravelin08 4 years ago
Well, if it's for removing a President/VP by a national vote.. I'm all for it after this republican administration. But for making national laws... that doesn't sit too well for me. We've got a lot of not-so-bright people in this country (as does any country).
cox1356 4 years ago
I agree with Mr. Gravel, the people are smarter than the current lawmakers in Congress. At least, we would have the interests of ordinary people in mind when the laws are proposed and passed. Right now, we don't have effective representation. The people are rowing but the direction has been predetermined.

Why don't you get add'l info instead of just relying on this one video? The info is there. You just need to look for it.

That way you won't have to think too much or use your imagination to come up with an explanation.

Way to jump to conclusions. I didn't rely on just this video to form an opinion on him.
