Ron Paul meets President Thomas Jefferson part 1

[TheMammalian]

"Hi Thomas Jefferson it's me Ron Paul!"

o.O

[TheJrv2damac]

RIP, founding fathers

[yronwyatt49b]

I want this video on my 3100 unit.

[ListWritingMachine]

I'm a lawyer and one person was called a "terrorist." I brought up it violated the 4th amendment and the other lawyer objected saying the patriot act is more important. The judge supported the Patriot Act. That was bullshit.

[BlowtheBridge]

@ListWritingMachine Nice to know our Judicial system is based on shadows and ideas. I'm glad there are patriots like yourself, sir.

[specom]

Why is Jefferson wearing a uniform?

[marinecorpdvldog]

Jefferson didn't help set up the US government. He was in France during the entire Constitutional Convention.

[Lieu3C4]

Jefferson advised small cities in close contact with agricultural regions and well developed educational facilities be established and nurtured across the mainland United States. New York as it now stands would have been impossible under such a policy overview, and a population largely ignorant of world geography while maintaining a belief in world dominance even more so. By the way: what are toxic companies?

[TheFederalistVoice]

What's funny about this video is the author does not know about the real Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson supported military intervention, wanted to overthrow the French Monarchy, wanted to annex British Canada, and believed it was America's destiny to spread democracy around the world, hence, "Empire of Liberty." Oh, Jefferson also trampled the Bill of Rights during the Embargo Act of 1807 and imprisoned Americans suspected of doing business with foreign markets without due process...

[Kingofprinces85]

@TheFederalistVoice Thats a drop in a bucket compared to what Obama, Roosevelt, Lincoln and several other Presidents did.

[TheFederalistVoice]

@Kingofprinces85 Yet, Jefferson is idolized for all the wrong reasons...others may have done more to expand and limit civil liberties, but the Constitution of the United States states, several times, that no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, and property without due process of law...and during Jefferson's presidency, he violated the most sacred element of our Constitution, depriving 10,000 individuals of life, liberty and property without due process. just an fyi

[TheFederalistVoice]

@Kingofprinces85 *expand government

[ScoutWanderer]

2 thumbs up. If i lived near chernobyl I'd give you 3 thumbs up

[thekeithchannel]

Very informative. You cleared a lot of things up for me.

[painlessissuicide]

why does Paul look like Jefferson, and Jefferson look like Washington?

[frenchsaber]

*facepalm

[housecry]

I want to wake up too President Jefferson, I want to wake up too.

[marhlfld1]

I want ONE person to come up with the exact wording concerning the issue of separation of church and state. I'll give you a million dollars. Find it and put it here word for word.

[ThinkerResearcher]

@marhlfld1 first amendment : "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof[...]"

meaning it's unconstitutional for the state to meddle with religions (and churches). No need to send the money btw, lol.

[d3ltadrive]

@marhlfld1 People have a right to worship whichever religion they choose, but government should not create atheistic law

[Navywxman]

@d3ltadrive Gov. should not create atheistic law? That would be a law that states it denies God exists, is there such a law? Goverment should do what it is meant to and to keep out of the religion business and religion out of government for the benefit and protection of both. Too bad religion and the bible thumpers can't respect the very thing that protects them, as well as stop from doing what they claim Gov. does which is impose their beliefs on others. That would be refreshing!

[d3ltadrive]

@Navywxman the creation of an atheistic law would combine religion and government because atheism itself is a religious idea. The government needs to create law that does not have any religious stand point and many people have the misconception that secularism needs a government who's standpoint is atheism such as the USSR.

[Navywxman]

@d3ltadrive atheism is not a religious idea in the slightest, except to someone who has no idea what atheism is. A law combining religion and government being atheist law makes no sense. Secularism has nothing to do with atheism either. Wow, you are in desperate need to learn about what you are talking about buddy.

[4mAALIKcHIN4]

@PatriotGoUSA Ron Paul does not want to limit the rights of women to choose. He doesn't agree with abortion but wants states to set up their own laws. He believes in individual freedoms over everything else.

[johnwrogers]

@CitizenOfEuphoria: Jefferson owned slaves..

[JxLAM]

@johnwrogers so? he died before the civil war.

[DeltaMartialArt]

@PatriotGoUSA He says he personally finds abortion offensive but that would be something that would be left to the each individual state to vote on.

[CitizenOfEuphoria]

@mockingbird187 "The Founding Fathers envisioned a robustly Christian yet religiously tolerant America, with churches serving as vital institutions that would eclipse the state in importance. Throughout our nation's history, churches have done what no government can ever do, namely teach morality and civility. Moral and civil individuals are largely governed by their own sense of right and wrong, and hence have little need for external government. This is the real reason the collectivist Left

[CitizenOfEuphoria]

hates religion: Churches as institutions compete with the state for the people's allegiance, and many people put their faith in God before their faith in the state. Knowing this, the secularists wage an ongoing war against religion, chipping away bit by bit at our nation's Christian heritage."

- Ron Paul

[CitizenOfEuphoria]

The funniest part is where Thomas Jefferson was a deist who denied the divinity of Jesus and believed in complete separation of church and state. Ron Paul is a fundamentalist Christian who doesn't believe in separation of church and state and thinks that the Founding Fathers were strong Christians who intended to establish America as a Christian nation, even though they blatently asserted that America was "not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion" in the Treaty of Tripoli in 1796.

[stalrunner]

@CitizenOfEuphoria He believes in the Constitution. The Constitution does not mention a "separation of church and state." We have the establishment and free exercise clauses, which he defends. He says that no one's religious expression can be silenced. That includes the religious expression of judges and teachers.

[mockingbird187]

@CitizenOfEuphoria Doesn't believe in the separation of church and state? So he's a "strict constitutionalist" who wants to reverse the first amendment? Wow, I've listened to much of his speeches and debates and NEVER heard this. Pretty sure you're incorrect. He doesn't want to make abortion illegal either, he just doesn't think it's the fed's place to decide. He wants to leave it up to the individual states to decide.

[ORACLE063]

@CitizenOfEuphoria yea so? I thought he had religious freedom? I thought he was able to express his views? I thought no religious test was to be given for office? It doesnt matter if he is religious. He understands the principle of this nation. Im a heavy atheist and i support the good doctor.

[DeltaMartialArt]

@CitizenOfEuphoria Actually he strongly believes in the separation of church and state because it is unconstituional. Also, he's a libretarian and it is completely against libretarian ideology to force a view or belief on a poeple. It is against a person's individual liberty to force a certain viewpoint on them. So he is a strong supporter of separation of church and state. He said no one should be able to impose their beliefs on him so he should not be able to impose his beliefs on others.

"What is a bailout?" - Thomas Jefferson

[manniman82]

Can someone please explain to me the bit about Goldman Sachs selling treasury bonds to the Fed? I thought the Fed bought treasury bonds directly from the treasury (Geitner) but in this video he explains that Geitner has connections with GoldmanSachs and somehow they make money in that transaction... I don't get it. How does Goldman Sachs make money there? Please can someone HELP ME understand this please. Thank you

[PatriotGoUSA]

@manniman82 The FED loans money to Goldman Sachs by buying treasury securities from them. They do this in order to inject more cash into the banks' balance sheets in order to lower interest rates. The banks are fine with this because they make money on the spread with no risk. The money often cycles between the banks and the FED, with the banks making sometimes 2-3% interest on very large sums of money. I have a better video somewhere, but check this one out for now:

/watch?v=wDuCOxDxMzY

[PatriotGoUSA]

@manniman82 Here's another one. It doesn't explain how investment bank make the big bucks in between, but it gives another perspective. Also, there is a mistake in my video. Timothy Geitner is secretary of treasury now, and William Dudley is the guy at the NY FED that is purchasing bonds through Goldman Sachs (he worked there too). There are a ton of Goldman Sachs employees in Obama's cabinet, oddly enough. /watch?v=SIp5gWmcQ64

[PooPooOnMyNewShoe]

Sad but true video. thanks for posting.

[TheLoyalOfficer]

Jefferson in a uniform?

Never!

[b1burck]

would the revolutionaries of 1776 be labled terrorists to the British Empire? or to our govt. today?

[am2boni]

Amen!! The truth!

[VeritasAmantesVocat]

1:20

they had terrorism back then 

[johnomonoia5]

@VeritasAmantesVocat why is there terrorism now?

[KlingonSpider]

this was very well done! thanks

[quangngy]

Why is Ron Paul getting so much support on the internet? Freedom is popular and the internet is the purest form of a free and open society, all of which Ron Paul advocates. Today is the day that America awakens. It is up to we the PEOPLE to answer the call of liberty and not the controlled media. Ron Paul is doing big things for the people and so the burden falls on our generation to spread the word! thumbs up for others.

[jwmarco21]

Thank you for this video, spot on!!!

[manfries]

can you make the picture clear please

[theartist53]

Four stars...two thumbs up!!

[BadVoodo0]

shit its sad to see our Thomas Jefferson speechless

[atchisrj1]

It's a nightmare for us too.

[junior91878]

Paul/Jefferson 2012

[atchisrj1]

@junior91878 That would be an amazing thing.

[knuddel123]

@ninjashade411 Oh, didn't know that! Thanks!

[starmanskye]

Just some related sundry opining: Pentagon is defacto enforcer-strongman muscle for International Banking Mob-Cartel, while Congress are complicit in the shakedown/loanshark/organized-­crime franchise racket as Capos, bought-off Associates and/or victims/serfs. FED (w/ associates IMF/World Bank, Intl. Bank of Settlements) has brokered End-run around US Sovereignty, sabotaged citizen-ruled Democracy by surreptitiously assuming authority for Fiscal Policy via controlling Monetary Policy. IDIOCY

[nojoso]

wow, this was amazing. very good. i think i'm tearing up

[Mark4RonPaul]

Brilliant video. Keep doing what you're doing. Education is the key to our generation's revolution.

[knuddel123]

and where the hell is part 2? :)

[knuddel123]

Why does Jefferson sound like a brit? ;-)

[scalp340]

great video, but where is part 2? Ron Paul 2012

[carcabe]

Can Ron Paul be President? Only if WE give it our all. Unless you give your time, talent and money to this cause don't expect it to happen. Dr. Paul can't do it alone. It's your life, your future. Decide and then live with that decision.

[noidonotgofish]

Awesome video! That was fun to watch. 

[DennisfromDC]

Jefferson was the first president to commit our troop overseas. It was the Barbary Wars in North Africa. Remember in the Marine Corps song "from the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli..."

The French Revolution was after the American one btw

[lexbvl]

@DennisfromDC and the constitution was drafted after the french revolution.

[DennisfromDC]

@lexbvl

US Constitution complete September 17, 1787

First state to ratify, Delaware December 7, 1787

French Revolution 1789-1799

I shouldn't have to educate you on basic history

[lexbvl]

@DennisfromDC the US constitution was not used before its first 10 amendments, because the states felt those rights were not clearly expressed in the rest of the document, making them the first set of amendments. These amendments were later known as "The Bill of Rights", they were ratified at the same time, and thus the U.S. Constitution was accepted to its entirety by every member state on 1791. If you claim to be fluent in "basic history" you might want to inform yourself. ...and your welcome.

[DennisfromDC]

@lexbvl First of all everyone at the time knew what the bill of rights was going to be based on debates in 1788 and what was in the Virginia bill of rights. BTW your point doesnt change the fact that the french revolution had nothing to do with our constitution. The first 10 amendments actually only applied to federal govt at the time and it wasnt until the fourteenth amendment, that established the incorporation of the bill of rights. before that the bill of rights did not extend to state govts

[DennisfromDC]

Respond to this video...

The basic framework of the Constitution was ratified before the french revolution and was not influenced by overseas actions.

And i love how you people quote jefferson's tree of liberty speech. he was referring to the shays' rebellion which rural farmers took up arms against capitalist bankers.

but that all doesnt matter anyways since jefferson isnt alive today so therefore isnt relavent in todays political discourse.
