  • US media is controlled by the Corporations , the same people that controls the corrupted president and goverment.

  • President's Day is coming up on February 18th. Valentine's Day is February 14th. I would love to see Mike Gravel become President. Can you help shower his campaign with love, I mean money? I'll pledge and send $50 on January 31st. Is someone else willing to send as much or more?

  • He is not..he will keep doing what he is doing until you listen to the TRUTH....DO YOU KNOW WHAT TRUTH IS?????

    LOOK IT UP THERE IS A WHOLE PHILOSOPHY ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I think you belive everything the media tells you.

  • JANUARY 1ST is the mass donation day for MIKE GRAVEL!!! Everyone please donate, lets help get Mike's message out there! Thanks, and don't forget to spread the word!

  • joe*

    my bad.

  • Jon Lieberman!

    He co-authored the iraq resoulition and went to war, why would the iran bill be any different?

  • silverkid, Gravel knows that.He is saying that its a fig leaf to war, meaning its the first step in trying to go to war. Why would you name someone a terrorist group unless you want a confrontation with them. And guess who authored that resolution that hillary voted yes on, and guess who co - authored the iraq resolution which sent us to iraq? whom dodd, biden, and hillary voted for, edwards co authored with drum beat please

  • The Mike Gavel google candidates video offers some hope, Vote for Mike

  • That was a vote saying a terrorist group was a terrorist group. It was NOT a vote for authority for going to war.

    You shouldn't twist the facts.

  • Hooray!! Slam Hillary.

    Make sure you watch

    "The video Hillary does not want you to see"

    and

    "The Clinton Chronicles"

    Keep in mind that Hillary and Bill are one in the same, two peas in a pod.

  • Thank God Mike Gravel is at least a voice in the midst and what has all but become a fascist system. Yes America after producing a million moral movie endings where the bad guys loose, still can you not see .....

    Mike Gravel is a true hero

  • If only the choice were between Ron Paul and Mike Gravel... Hell I don't even think I would vote, I'd be more than happy to have either of them.

  • Hill's such a dam hypocrite. she voted for the iraq war and now shes voted for liberman's iraq resolution. war monger!

  • I'm so angry at my country for not seeing Mike Gravel for what he truely is, a fucking hero. America is full of fucking nimwits who buy into CNN and FOX. I will never buy a general electric product again. Mike--You are a wonderful human being, and when the children cried, we'll let em know you tried.

  • shows corruption in the democratic party

  • It's clear that Democrats in Nevada want to hear from Mike Gravel. Now he needs your help.

    If 80 people just give . . .

    $250 -- We can secure a spectacular Alternative Debate venue.

    $100 -- We can stage and promote the entire event.

    $50 -- We can plaster Las Vegas with 5,000 posters supporting Mike's fight against corporate censorship

  • The fact is, Mike Gravel angered powerful people when he confronted Senator Clinton over Iran during last month's debate. Up to that moment the Clinton juggernaut was rolling over everyone. Now Mike is paying the price for speaking truth to power.

  • that just show how dirty the system is in th eU.S. we aren't even a real democracy. WE ARE A REPUBLIC

  • CNN says Mike Gravel must meet three criteria:

    * Form a federal exploratory committee and officially declare his candidacy. (He did.)

    * Poll at 1% or above. (He does.)

    * Raise at least $1 million in individual contributions since January 1, 2007. (He has not.)

    Once again, MONEY decides who gets to participate in America's political debates.

  • Now you would have thought that CNN would have been more interested in good television, and mike sure provides that, just shows how owned the media is...dark times

  • and the proof that they planned & censored questions from the audience.

  • They wouldn't want people to actually vote for someone they believe in! Instead they want to herd us into supporting their pre-selected, corrupt, corporate-backed choices.

    Fresh on the heels of MSNBC's exclusion of Senator Mike Gravel from last week's Philadelphia debate, we now hear that CNN has cut the Senator from its November 15 debate in Las Vegas. Like MSNBC, CNN's justification comes down to one ugly factor: MONEY.

  • CNN has cut Mike Gravel from the November 17 debate in Las Vegas

    Call: (212) 275 7800

  • You know I would really like to see a Ron Paul Mike Grave ticket. I wonder if would be legal to do so!

  • Mike Gravel will never run with Ron Paul.

  • Then Mike Gravel will never stand a chance without Ron Paul!

  • Ron Paul is a deceiver. Don't trust him for a second. He IS republican and he votes 75% in favor with his fellow republicans. Ron has proved he has weak plans against Bush & Co. and he is against impeachment. Ron made the "We The People Act". He has not rallied against the "Homegrown Terrorism Act" because he did not bother to vote on it. Ron is not for power to the people, only Mike is.

  • Definitely no coincidence, sir. You and Dennis K. are the only Democratic contenders with any real integrity. I only wish you would gain the support that Ron Paul has gotten on the Republican side. What is the matter with Americans? Keep giving them hell, Gravel!

  • His best video yet! I like the guy, but unfortunately these primaries will use electronic voting machines with no paper trail, which means they will be stolen! So once again, we will get to vote for our next dictator, very likely the ones touted by the media/industro-military complex.

  • You mean Rudy Giuliani.

  • Let's face it. The democrat that wins the primary will be the one that republicans believe they can beat.

    And if they can't beat them, then oh well - we already know what happens then. Bush already considers half the citizens in the U.S. are terrorists for even belonging to a second party (even if they sound the same).

  • All Gravel supporters should convert to ron paul, he has more of a chance, i love gravel's message and passion, but if we combine the supporters we will be on top, gravel is even for ron paul!!!!!

    RON PAUL 08, GRAVEL FOR VICE PRESIDENT!!

  • Let's face it Gravel, if you were corrupted, and a flip flopper, you would be leading in the polls.

  • He might have passion but he has no money to put where his mouth is, so to speak. He had about $31,000 in his campaign account last I heard. I actually admire him for his passion because he actually seems like he's the only one who wants to get anything done. It's what he wants to get done I disagree with. He may be passionate but why does that matter if he's spewing a bunch of crap?

  • maybe you would listen to MIKE GRAVEL if you weren't sucking chris matthews cock so hard your ears were bleeding!

    gravel08. us

  • Did I say a WORD about Chris Matthews? I HATE Chris Matthews...I don't even watch MSNBC. I've listened to Mike Gravel and I don't like him, he's crazy! And you're an idiot for assuming I didn't listen to him.

  • LOL, I love the dramatic music.

  • He's the only one with TRUE and UNBRIDLED passion! He speaks the truth to power and they've shut him down. You are the only one in this conversation that is 'stupid'.

  • It's about the message. Ron Paul started modestly, but now has more cash-on-hand than McCain.

  • This is an outstanding piece. Gets my blood boiling again.

  • This issue must be her demise. DEMOCRATS YOU FUCKIN COCKSUCKERS GET OFF YOUR HANDS AND KNEES.

  • No chance eric. They like getting it from this administration. Sure, they squeal and complain a bit, but at the end of the day they belong to Bush.

  • Make sure to donate to Mike Gravel's campaign on Tuesday October 30th to protest his exclusion from the Democratic debate and fire up his campaign! Pass the word along to anyone who believes that truly real and honest voices are vital to an open democracy!

    If you're grateful that those dear to you have live without fear of being drafted into unjust wars, thank Mike Gravel. His courage helped end the draft during Vietnam, and he will end the war in Iraq.

  • Vote Gravel!

    Bring Our Troops Home!

  • The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis.

    -Dante Alighieri

  • In 2006 Hillary pulled the same thing against her anti-war primary opponent Jonathan Tasini with NY1(New York cable station). NY1 forced a guideline of 500k, and 5% polling. NY1 is owned by Time Warner and guess who donated thousands of dollars to her campaign? Yep, you guessed it. Time Warner. Sounds very similar right? This is worse because Gravel was in the debates before.

  • DresOpinion, yes you are right. Tasini got the treatment from the Hillary camp. I was so furious yet helpless. Hope Hillary will be brought down to earth with the fund raising scandal per Peter Paul. The Clintons are thieves. Google up Peter Paul and Clinton for the articles.

  • I have a strong feeling that the Clinton campaign was behind this. It's no coincidence that the debate after taking Hillary to the woodshed Gravel is excluded.

  • Hey Mike. I sent NBC comments and emails. I signed your petition. I'm still angry! What else can I do? I already don't watch NBC. So mad... can't kick the dog, he's a democrat... so angry! What to do!?!

  • Here's my note to NBC.

    I've been watching Countdown until I heard of your decision to Sen. Gravel from the debate. No more NBC.

    You must know how well your plan has backfired because now (thanks to whomever) Gravel has generated quite a few new votes.

    Please continue block Senator Gravel so that he can go on to a triumphant victory. Hire a savvy PR person. Don't take any advise from the Hillary camp. You'll soon be in the dog house.

    Thanks a lot!!

  • I hope your right.

    The country is on a perilous course toward fascism.

    In order make bad things happen, takes good people to do nothing

  • I'm voting for Mike no matter what at this point. Wish i had some money to give your campaign

  • SHAME ON GE!!!!

  • Everyone should make an effort to get their friends to look up Gravel on You-tube. This is the way all campaigning should be done. Ron Paul has gotten some visibility this way, let's do our part to get more people to tune in to this truth-teller. Its a problem when the public demands dishonesty, or so it seems. But they've been brainwashed, so let's be as patient as Mike is with them.

  • gravel will not be stopped.

    he has a growing machine behind him.

    GO DONATE, PEOPLE!!

  • remember what they did to ralph nader - do NOT let them do it again - washington university class '81 - protect kucinich paul

  • Hillary Clinton is their favorite candidate only because she can pay them more in ad revenue than any other candidate! Gravel is a threat to the sham of Hillary Clinton and they chose profits over integrity!

  • Even more than their military contracts, GE (NBC/MSNBC)is favoring Hillary Clinton and other big money candidates because they want these democrats to get more money to spend campaign cash on advertising on THEIR networks! Its a pure business decision and its disgusting, a total affront to democracy.

  • Gravel is being eliminated because he is telling the truth!

    One more reason to vote for him and downgrade all the other candidates!!!!

    Beware:

    THIS IS A NEW FOR OF DICTATORSHIP.

  • this is fucking bullshit!!

  • minus one for the bullshit response ;)

  • How's this for an email to NBC?

    To all you fascist motherfuckers at NBC

    We the people demand that you allow former senator and fellow patriot Mike Gravel to participate in the upcoming debate that is taking place on October 30, 2007

  • If you do not comply, a screenshot of your already received generic and bullshit response, which will be labeled "CENSORSHIP AND UN-BECOMING A FREE SOCIETY" shall circulate around the web, revealing to the world how un-american NBC really is resulting in the disgrace of your news organization.

  • Comply, informing to us that Mr. Gravel will be invited, as well as given the same amount of attention as everyone else, with his name included in the polls or your legacy will go spiraling down the tube as fast as information spreads across the internet.

    You do not want to risk the disruption of NBC. Break these conditions and your fucked.

    --

    let me know if it needs a few kinks fixed.

  • I would clean up the language a bit.

    I would also add that we will boycott GE, all sponsors on NBC programing and NBC programs. The Gravel Campaign is a grassroots effort that is supported by many people all over the United States, Europe and Asia.

    We will also send a letter campaign to the Sponsors of NBC letting them know why we know longer purchase their products and or goods.

    Just an Idea

  • Just reposting the petition link.

    petitionspotdotcom/petitions/l­etgravelspeakoct30

  • Let Mike debate!

  • Yes I heard about the Hillary and Edwards thing and knew at that time that it was an attack against Gravel. I have been following you all along Mike but my vote is going to Ron Paul. I would vote for both of you with Ron Paul as president and you as vice-president, wouldn't that make the best pro-liberty ticket?

  • I just heard you on the Alex Jones show mike, good luck buddy you seem like a real good guy, I hope they don't try the same thing to Ron Paul.

    Paul / Gravel / Kucinich 2008! Unity is the only chance we've got!

  • Ron Paul and Mike Gravel 2008!!

  • petition signed, email sent to dnc

  • I have sent NBC a letter offer them $1 million to include Senator Gravel in the debate, and I am serious. FEC rules prohibit making this contribution directly. This letter run in NH newspapers tomorrow. Please see supportinggravel DOT blogspot DOT com for a copy of the letter. -Greg Chase

  • BLESS YOU, GREG CHASE! THERE IS STILL HOPE. Also, if they say no, what we need to do is, everyone needs to give 10-20 dollars today, which translates to 20-40 with the federal matching. Then, try to get more people to do the same. If it averages $15 per person, then WE ONLY NEED 18,000 CONTRIBUTIONS TO MEET THEIR REQUIREMENTS!!!!! IF WE CAN'T DO THIS, THEN FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE WHAT ARE WE ALL DOING?

  • Well folks, its back to business as usual.

    No matter which party the next president comes from, the script has already been written. "REGIME CHANGE IN IRAN"!!!!!!!

    hillary and guiliani have already pledged.

    The only two none establishement candidates in the presidential race are MIKE GRAVEL (D) and RON PAUL(R)!!!

  • Has anyone seen "The Morning Show Live"?

  • cyberdogg, I would write back to them and say..

    EVERYONE plays a role in the democratic process, you're not exempt from that responsibility, do what you can if you really care about the future of this country. I'm sure you can have a bigger impact than you are having cowering behind your excuses.

  • What the fuck?

  • Thank you Mike Gravel, thank you for continuing to stand up to those bullies we call our government and preaching the truth. You are a modern Ghandi and it causes me a sickening amount of pain to see you shut out, not only by the liars and the cheaters, but by our own ignorant population who cares more about Brittney Spears than the future of our country. We have become a disgrace to the once proud and defiant people known as Americans. Shame on us!

  • i'm sending an email right now too

    ;)

  • Protest by donating to Mike Gravel's campaign...

  • and if you can help it, on Oct. 30th. That will send a message. If he reaches the big numbers maybe the media will cover it. And what a nice staple to add its on the day he was not allowed to voice his opinion.

  • I voted thumbs down for the reply...

    Thanks ====cyberdogg2=====

    I only wish we could help.

    The world is WACTHING !!!!!!!!!

  • Email Chuck.Todd at nbcuni dot com

  • I'm sorry to see honest, outspoken cadidates getting shut out just because they don't meet some made up requirements. It's time Americans stand up and demand fairness. It's time for the people to wrest control of this country back from big corporations and big government.

  • Chuck Todd's Response to my letter re: Gravel Censorship on NBC:

    On Oct 23, 2007, at 1:19 PM, Todd, Chuck D (NBC Universal) wrote:

    Thanks for your email. As you may already know, no network has given

    Sen. Gravel more opportunity to get his message across than NBC and

    its affiliates via both interviews and debates. But with the election

    season beginning in just 72 days and more candidates...

    Same Email as me, cyberdogg2, OFCOURSE.

  • Just wrote NBC and the DNC, in addition to signing the petition. I've also asked those at the gravel2008 channel to put the petition info on every video up to 10/30. Folks, if you want the info, PM me.

  • Sen. Gravel's words are going to be considered diplomatically prophetic in a short amount of time. The "mainstream" candidates stand by wringing their hands while the NeoCon war machine charges forward.....it's really sick.

  • I wasnt even voting for him , but this is getting crazy. I dont agree with his views,but he should still be up there. At least until the people vote himout.

  • slash between com and petitions

    I think this thing started this morning and it's alredy got 1400 signatures. Please help!

  • Sign this petition to protest!

  • MSNBC and whoever put them up to this is messing with our Democracy.

    As an American, there are few things that are more offensive than that.

  • You want to know something pathetic? Fox news is being more fair with their contestants then the supposedly liberal msnbc...

  • great video. everyone blog it and pass it around on myspace.

  • I sent a message to NBC about this. I pretty much said that it's a shame that the media is now in charge of our political system and the only candidates that get the air time are the ones with corporate lobbyists and special interests (and Rupert Murdock) in their pockets.

  • Damn.... Gravel rules...

  • Hillary is corrupt and needs to be exposed.

  • 50 bucks for mike from me, (can't afford much more), words can't describe my frustration for this system

  • Absolutely sickening.

    I have no idea what this country is anymore, because it's certainly not America.

    I think Mike ought to show up anyway, and demand a podium.

  • this is not Democracy! fuck man there really need to help Mike here! They after him because he right! and make them less important. Bunch of fucking cunts all i can say! Democracy is not real in the US.

  • check here for contact email addresses to help Mike!

    youtubedotcom/watch?v=F5uOH-Ax­eSo

  • Why are the powerful trying to silence a 77 year-old man. If he's not a candidate he'll die on the vine of neglect, right? But they're coming after him.

    What are the Clinton donors afraid of? of no war in Iran?

    What is NBC afraid of? of someone talking out of their control?

    What is GE afraid of? of a line being drawn from the deaths of children in Iraq and Iran to the deaths of Americans as a result?

    Gagging Mike bring's more attention to the gaggers than to the guy who's been gagged.

  • Son of a........! I just don't get it! Why dont they just stop bothering with these debates. Anymore they are nothing more than a facade. I think Mr. Gravel himself said "Just follow the money". These primary's are already decided. It's like watching wrestling. All I ask is what can I do to help, seriously.

  • I contacted the president of Drexel university

    papdakis at drexel dot edu

  • email address incorrect. should be papadakis at drexel dot edu.

  • Thank you for the correction concerning the email.

  • :(

    Dear fellow Americans,

    Move out to another country. Democracy is dead and each presidential election is nothing more than the White House at auction.

  • You guys ought to indicate what we YouTubers can do to protest this decision. For instance, give the email address at MSNBC, where the letters of protest should be addressed to.

  • hey what's the contact number for MSNBC? plz tell :/

    I like that other guys idea of Mike getting a podium and a Mic and debating himself outside

    that would really receive attention!

  • This is complete bull. CNN can eat the "treat" I left in the toilet bowl. The man's trying to stand up for what he believes in, dammit!

  • ... Lsmic. I meant MSNBC. I read godisghey's comment and CNN was stuck in my mind.

  • CNN tried this before...they were unsuccessful. We can stop this bull shit!

  • Don't be too bummed out Mike, nobody watches those debates anyway. We're so proud of you for standing up and I can't wait to see more of you in the weeks ahead.

  • Our media does not exist to serve the interest of America or it's people. It exists to generate revenue.

    It really saddens me to see that a person running for president can simply be black listed and hidden from the American people if the media wants to do that. It just isn't right.

  • say no to censorship!! We can't let this happen....

  • This is simply despicable !!! It cannot get any worse than this. Finally, the rogues are being exposed by Mike and it's getting too HOT for some ! I am going to do all I can on this.

    Sen. Gravel, you are the Man !!! We are with you.

  • ok anybody we will be optimistic by standing up against authority as he did, we out number them now are you in or out! come on fucking shit! gain some common sense

  • this situation seems like something the media would generally make a big deal of

    i hope they can make mention of it somewhere before or after what britney spears ate for breakfast

    the GE symbol is suspect anyway

  • thats horrible......he should be in the debate!!

  • I bet Hilary's campaign demanded his head after that open confrontation.

  • Write ViewerServices at MSNBC dot COM

    Tell them we're not having it.

  • Of course they don't Mike around, he tells the truth... sort of like Nader did. And you see what they did to him.

    Hillary's support is hyped. They keep saying she leads the polls but I don't know any progressive who supports her. She's a fraud.

  • Figures

  • How exactly are they justifying excluding Gravel? Looks like we're gonna have another bad 4 years-it's hard to be optimistic when you see things like this.

  • This is corruption at its finest. How can people still think we live in a true democratic society? I am OUTRAGED, to say the least. PLEASE, donate to Senator Gravel and email NBC. Get the word out!

  • how can they do that?

    that's a different level of bias

    Mike, Go there and get a camera guy and a little podium and have Mike Gravel solo debate right outside

    whatever they say about that

    it might gain even more attention

  • Well I know certainly Mike Gravel isn't surprised. The strategist that he is he'll move forward with his campaign. That's why he is the only choice for president.

    Meanwhile we have to send a message to GE that the people are done with the nonesense. I'm for protesting and sending funds to Mike on Oct. 30th. Lets make it happen.

  • i dig that

  • hey im a noob at protesting. but whats the contact number? cos i need to know :/

  • I wish more people who knew what the hell "noob" or "1337" means would start getting politically active. :)

  • oh they will ;D lolz

    cos im sending bulletins that expose the cfr and presidential candidates to my friends and videos of mike, ron, and dennis facing media bias and why there getting so popular and a vid of eisenhower the military industrial complex

    and the email to MS NBC!

    oh and a vid of testify of rage against the machine

    its gonna spread like wild fire ;)

  • Good job!

    "It's right outiside your door. Now Testify!"

  • Everyone, as a form of protest for this complete unacceptable behavior, let's all call and e-mail as much as we possibly can....also, on October 30th, let's donate to Mike Gravel's campaign...a protest outside of Drexel and possibly a second event at Drexel(during the debate) is much, much needed as well....

  • I'm in.

  • And as another form of protest, every Sen. Gravel supporter should donate $100 (or their maximum means) to the campaign on October 30.

  • We need a united protest. Everyone should call not one, not two, but three or more times a day. Also, everyone should get together and protest at the local NBC stations nearby and at Drexel U. where the event will be held.

    I don't know what the Senator will do on that day, but IMO he should just stand outside of Drexel and start speaking. A good ol' fashion stump rally.

  • That is exactly what needs to be done. Great ideas!

  • What's the phone number / are the phone numbers?

  • I refer you to this thread:

    (type the gravel main website URL in front of this)?q=node/2398

    You'll have to peruse around, but all the numbers and emails are there.

  • C'mon everyone ! Help Mike help US ! MAKE A STAND !

  • omg, people make me mad

  • What can be done to DEMAND that Gravel is included in the October 30th debate? We need to rally not just Gravel supporters, but ANYONE that believes in the integrity of democratic debate.

    I think the Ron Paul nation would back us up on this one. Fortunately, Congressman Paul has far too much support and money for the Republicans to "exclude" or "forget" him. But they know what's at stake just as much as us. We have a week... HEAR THE RUMBLE OF THE PEOPLE!!!

  • That's exactly it.

    This isn't about any one candidate. This is about American Democracy.

    And MSNBC and the DNC need to hear that the American People are well-aware that that is exactly what they are fooling with.

    The verdict is simple: It's UNACCEPTABLE.

  • Hillary, Edwards, Obama and who knows what others are all in one giant bed together, and hey...here comes the DNC and MSNBC and MSM to join in for a nice cozy get together under the covers. "Just leave your bundles of money on the night stand before you leave", says Hillary while the others chime in with "make sure it's enough", "remember my price went up", "anytime". This is disgusting, people!

  • this is upsetting. when are the "supporters" going to fight back?

  • October 30, 2007.

    I like your name. I hope it happens.
