Mike Gravel Interviews with 'Voice of America'

[GrandeRio01]

@gravel2008- My contribution is a word of advise... Israel has returned to her Promise Land and is there to stay. If your Islamic thugs continue trying to annihilate Israel her surrounding enemies will see the sky on 'fire' raining down on them. This is Biblical and prophetic. Defend Israel!

[TheSaghey]

It Is So Mind Pleasing To Finally Hear Someone Who Respects The True Values And The Foundations Which This Country was Once Known For And Based Upon, The True Democratic Values, The Thomas Jeffersons, The Eisenhowers And The Kennedies. Not A Bunch Of War Mongers Killing And Destroying For Power And More Power, The Evil Power.

[jampt1989]

Best Gravel Interview so far. I am an Australian citizen, and proud of my country, but this arrogance western nations develop through jingoism. Why is a human being in the other side of the world less valued than i am? I think it's sick

[heinj98]

Public funds for campaign finance. Our tax money finances everyone's campaign equally. No more private financing. No more lobbyists. Bingo bango, 65% of the problems solved. To get to 75%, give the politicians a check for the rest of their lives, and cut off their ability to work in the private sector. Once they've been in government, they can never work in the private sector again.Politicians are guaranteed a director spot at a multinational if they do what the corporation wants in office

[heinj98]

If not forever, at least for 15-20 years after leaving government. Forever is more safe though, because these people could still work in government, line the corporations pocket, and 15-20 years down the road get their payback. To get to 90%, no more ambassadors. Ambassadors get connections with the nations they're ambassadors to, then, they peddle weapons contracts and shit to them. No more ambassadors. Just keep cutting it down. I could get it to 100% non-corrupt.

[heinj98]

ahhh you're coming to the truth gravel. Yes, we did destabilize that region of the world. Now, you have to read Rebuilding America's Defenses put out by PNAC and signed off on on the neo-clown's in the Bush Administration. Destabilization WAS the whole point. It says America is a super power, and we should destabilize all these regions of the world to keep them from being capable to challenge our supremacy. Yes, the region has been destabilized, and that was the whole point to begin with.

[heinj98]

Europeans do hold it agains it. They believe that we're the most stupid group of people on planet earth, and our stupidity is destroying the world. That is what Europeans think.

[dianemercier]

Choose Mike Gravel #1, or Ron Paul #2.

[sweetsensation115]

does anyone know who the news reporter is?!

[Roddykris]

he is the man

[Mojorizzin]

I agree that most running for prez are for imperialism but Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich along with Gravel are not. I don't see why Gravel say's that he's the only one against war.

[bettyat]

vote for gravel vote for gravel

[whoatherejohnny]

Gravel makes a good amount of sense even when he's really angry and crazyish in debates and stuff, but when he's calm like this, he sounds even better.

[uterfan]

Mass Donation Day for Mike Gravel on 11/11 - please help a veteran on Veterans Day!!!

We have to make an strong impact by the 15th, don't let corporate censorship win this battle!!!

[Valerian1]

If Gravel got 1% of the media coverage that Britney Spears gets, he'd win the hearts and votes of Americans so fast it would make your head spin! Period.

[uterfan]

If we show 1% of the courage & passion Mike Gravel posseses then we will get him elected by a landslide. We can't rely on corrupt media. We have to make the coverage with him. We have to work hard, sacrifice time and do all we can to make his voice known. Many people STILL don't know who he is. Mike can't do it alone, he needs backup, he needs our voices to speak even louder than his.

[madmonkey756]

'tis the breathe of fresh air^^ ;)

Mike/Ron2008 for peace!

[uterfan]

Mike won't run with Paul, that's definite. And Paul doesn't know the meaning of peace. Mike promises peace in the U.S. and peace in the middle east. Paul will go easy on Bush. Mike will put Bush & Co. in jail as they deserve. Paul does not believe in citizen power, Mike authored it and will make it happen.

[ZINZOMUHAREM]

great interview, espec. the begin of the 6th minute...very true...

[cascade777]

Mike & Ron!

[Rhite5]

I want everyone I know to watch this particular video. It provides the best introduction I have seen to what Senator Gravel is all about.

[partgreen]

Ron Paul looks good too. He shares most opinions with Gravel. I only worry that Paul wouldn't have the GUTS to do what Gravel obviously does.

[uterfan]

Ron Paul not only doesn't have the guts, he doesn't have the plans, he doesn't have the leadership capabilities nor the honesty Gravel possesses.

[ryanjvale]

Mr. Gravel, You are a decent ,mature ,unselfish person.

[pipoclown2]

I am from Europe, otherwise I would support mr Gravel! Learn more on what really is going in our country & world, see:

[MrWood14]

Great video for a great man, Mike Gravel. I also like Ron Paul.

We have TWO chances to get rid of these Neo-Cons in government. Every Democrat should register Republican IMMEDIATELY, vote for Ron Paul in the GOP primary. Then when the primary gets stolen, in the actual election vote Democrat. We have two opportunities, TWO chances, please don't loose either...

[kathleensobo]

this video was super. he had the time to respond to very thoughtful questions posed by ?. i take it he is Turkish.

very encouraging.

[jmurray789]

Freedom is participation in power. Imagine a leader who trusts the people of his country to truly participate. Give Gravel a few bucks and keep him going! Spread the word! We've got unprecedented technological means today, but also talk to people around you, friends and family. Confront them with simple and inescapable truths that will lead them to Gravel.

[2008Revolution2008]

his interviews are always the best, dont forget to check more ;)

[mikegravelforprez]

Mike Gravel for President!!

[JakePelka]

The mind reels at the possiblility of a man this intelligent being president of the United States.

[uterfan]

A PLEA FROM MICHAEL J FOX FOR STEM CELL RESEARCH

watch?v=xJ6_5OCRxTE

not Ron Paul 08!

Gravel 08!!!

[Akyrumunios]

I think Mike has got about half of the big picture. It's not just oil. It's all Iraq has to offer. Which is potential power and money. They world elite the global money makers are looking to stabalize the situation there. So that Iraq can have the McDonalds and Burger Kings and get into the global money machine."fallow the money" I did and it got me to the bank of international settlements.

[kathleensobo]

the other half is israeli interests, which no one wants to address, but it is the truth.

[uterfan]

Mike Gravel addresses the issue of Israel's government. You just have to watch alot of Mike Gravel videos. I made a little Gravel compilation video that includes this issue. Searchword: "Want Truth? Vote Mike Gravel for President 2008".

[Sclorch]

Paul, Gravel, and Kucinich! All are good guys worthy of a vote!

Ron Paul 2008!!!

[mockerbird]

While I agree with Gravel's idealism and agree that Bush and his bunch have lost it, I don't like the idea of vilifying America or in trying to reduce it to a powerless nothingness.

If America makes a mistake, criticize it, but not America, itself. Certainly America needs a military for defense, and must do its part to right injustice.

The extremists continue to be people who will blow themselves and civilians up.

[TheChameleons73]

Hes a man who makes simple statements in a world with such absurd and illogic complexity.Truth is a very simple thing, but needs guts and clarity to be told.Gravel has both.

[SweetToothBeats]

Everybody here who like Mike better vote for him, and do everything possible for him to win. Mike needs us, and we need Mike.

VOTE SMART!

[Bassman5000t]

Mike - you're always well spoken - i enjoy listening to what you have to say.

[HatTricksInc]

Informed Americans agree.

We need President Gravel.

Vote your conscience. The more we need. The more our Voting truly counts.

[HatTricksInc]

"need" = "do"

[smh2224]

Even though Mike doesn't get any time to speak during the debates, he says more in substance than any of the "top tier" candidates- they are nothing but smoke and mirrors. I am beginning to believe that the media (and the other candidates) are AFRAID to hear what Mike has to say because he makes too much sense and might just eclipse the other candidates- which isn't part of the plan...

[moikl]

well done mike, a sane voice in the mire of madness.

[jfmxl]

"We're no better than anyone else." No worse either. We need to recognize that fact most of all.

When this present criminal regime does come down the principals of the invasion and occupation... Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Feith, Bremer, Owell, Rice, Blair... all must stand in the dock at the Anglo-American War Crimes Tribunal, just as the Germans did sixty years ago.

[HatTricksInc]

Yes.

[BonzoGal1980]

Mike is the man who can fix America and make us great again, I wish other people would wake up and see that.

He will reunite and heal this country.

[cadigreen]

I LIKE MIKE!

[Caladia]

I support Mike Gravel!!!

This man is right on!!! I will personally do everything I can to help him!!!

[gmfutube]

The world may not hold it against the American people now, but they will.

If we do not stop this, the American people will be hated as the German people were after WWII.

[quest67]

wow mike...you really get me every time...maybe its the truth....

[evidux]

Wow. What a complete knockout. Seriously, I beg the American people to elect this man as their president. This man, right here, gives hope to the world. Senator, I commend you and as the election of the president of the USA is of great importance to all people in the world, I will donate to your campaign.

Natalie, Sweden.

[Rabbiz]

I've donated myself, from Sweden to.

[aannkk]

I WANNA BE LIKE MIKE!

[SoundAdviceCT]

Wooooohooooooo!  Go, Mike!

[SOMUCHFORFREEMEDIA]

Thank you Mike. Even though I support Ron Paul most of us critical thinkers have your back. You are a man that history will remember. Give em Hell Mike Gravel.

My channel has answers.

[SkipW]

The ONLY canidate who wants to Enpower the People! and not the multinational corporations

[Commando303X]

An excellent video. Certainly, Mike Gravel functions brilliantly in this sort of environment. Even at the Russert-hosted debate, he was amazing, though he didn't fight for enough time (I'm sorry, but I do fault Mike for not fighting).

[smh2224]

Thank you, Mike for giving me hope in the political system of this country again. I have donated to you twice, and if I can donate more, I will. I have never had faith until I heard you speak...

[JakePelka]

GRAVEL CAN CHANGE THE WORLD!!

[fullnelsongrip]

Gravel has the best youtube channel. Anyone agree?

[sky21448]

Shame on us if we don't vote for him, He is our hope to change our country!!!!

[mdk550]

Mr. Gravel, you are the most amazing man ever in American Politics! I pray that you win. Give it your all sir, I sure will give it my all for you!

[bartolemeo]

Well done again, Senator. Compliments also to the gentleman who conducted the interview. It was refreshing to see an interviewer allow you complete answers, and to listen to them...without spin. Be well, Sir.

[bartolemeo]

It's not really about "hanging out for more abuse", it's about realizing that we are responsible for what's going on until we rally in the streets to throw these people out of office. It's about "what do I want my country to stand for", and voting in a way that will achieve that goal. Mr. Gravel has my vote...call me an idealist, whatever you'd like....I want my country back.

[wreckerpecker]

A fundamental piece here is that Gravel would literally re-frame what you perceive as your government as you will find that it is you. Try not to forget that in a very real way, nothing else exists but you. So when you follow rules and live in a world architected ages ago and through time, it is not your life you are living. Your country is gone, time to be you.

[bartolemeo]

I'm ok with that....time for a new model ;) I think that the Founders would agree. Be well, W.P.

[lgrf4evr]

senator gravel you should stop using the united states, you should reframe the debate, b/c american are really stupid. instead of saying that it was america that destroy iran said that it was republican/conservative who did it. always blame the republican. you should said why do republican spend more money on weapon, who are they afriad of?

[uglybutstupid]

Gravel: Love monger.

Could we possibly stand having a truly good man as our leader? Can we really go from just electing (and reelecting) a breath-takingly stupid and malevolent hillbilly to this tolerant, peaceful and cerebral individual?

For God's sake, he'll have us all holding hands and reading books before you know it.

[bartolemeo]

And that would be a good thing ;)

[keithburgun]

The only way I'm staying in the USA is if he is elected. PLEASE people vote your conscience.

[wreckerpecker]

I'm with you. I won't be able to hang out for more abuse.

[mde2004]

you are a true American hero, please beat hillary and become the leader we need.

[poppapump444]

gravel u shoulda been more angry with hillary and interupt

these phony candidates...if u cant buy time,steal it from them at the debates

[doubleaamazin]

I agree, Hillary interrupts all the time, Gravel got three questions! Maybe a total of three minutes! Hillary got a half an hour! Stand up for yourself!! Make your presence known!

[overmind25]

Gravel you slammed Hillary last night and she laughed at you. I wish you would have looked at her and said people are dieing and an Iran war is on the horizon and you are laughing! You believe killing more Americans and Iranians is something you can just laugh off!

[westphalianprinz]

She apparently thinks killing people is just hilarious. She's very condescending towards people who don't have her "Neocon lite" views. Gravel had the guts to call her out on it. I wish someone could have told her that on stage when she voted for the Iraq disaster.

[poppapump444]

u should of said that mike....right to her face......good comment

[EleoChan]

Mike Gravel is sexy.

[gravel2008]

Hey...

Thanks!

;-)

[kathleensobo]

totally, sexy, kind, tough, wise, believable!

[DevBlazed]

sounded very presidential in the last debate, keep it up bro

[Rokasomee]

If Plato were here today, this man would have already been president.

[PersonalJesus348]

this man needs to be elected.

[Dawnincali]

Great interview! I'll email this to everyone I know. Honest words from a courageous leader; what a rare occurence in today's political environment. It's so nice to hear a Presidential candidate say that he has faith in us. We have faith in you too, Gravel. You rock!
