Too bad he couldn't keep up on his own debts to pay his campaign staff member Becky Isais. He has owed me $1000.00 for over a year now. Mike Gravel talks fine but doesn't hold himself to his own standards. With those kind of morals I'm glad he didn't make it. HE IS A TRUE POLITICIAN!!!
Obama blocked Gravel from receiving around $200,000 in federal matching funds while the campaign hit rock bottom after Gravel was excluded from the debates. Even Becky admits she was paid before the October surprise devastated the campaign. Even now, Gravel is the only person to have not received his matching funds from the FEC, although he qualified more than a year ago. (Even Nader received his matching funds.) Obama is now president-elect, the bailout passed, and justice has been served!
If you want to sell out your friends for a piece of silver, get the silver in advance before you hang yourself.
If this was all about the money, you should have worked for Obama instead of harassing a threadbare campaign completely dependent on volunteer effort by LOYAL supporters (some of whom were paid staff before the crisis) who continued despite the media blackout and blocking of matching funds.
Great speech, but I hope he uses more opportunities like this to really push the national initiaitive, and focus a little less on attacking the democratic leadership and the other candidates. If people really get a grasp of the national initiative it could cause a firestorm in the media, and I for one would love to hear the candidates comment on why they support or don't support legislature to empower the people. Any videos of candidates commenting on the national initiative?
Thank you so much for putting this up! This should have been on national television. Fortunately, we have YouTube.
Powerful speech. This is a must see for any citizen who cares about the future of their country. I'm glad he got this out in a public forum; he's got the fight in him and he's going the distance like he did during the Vietnam War. I think I'll post links to this speech in my videos.
Yet again, all I can say is that Gravel's words need to be heard by every Democrat that cares. Every American that care. Every citizen of the world that cares.
I hope somehow your words are able to break through some of those sellouts to take a second look at what it means to be a representative of the people, and that there is more at stake this election than money. Our consitutions and freedoms are at risk! Gravel 08! the only man with a plan!
Yes!! Mike that was an awesome speech with a great message. I'm glad it seemed like so many in the audience agreed with you. Mainstream candidates are bought and sold by the person with the most money and power. Their allegiance is sold to the highest bidder. YOU are real, YOU are for the people, and YOU will change the world. Keep spreading your message - I will.

I am very depressed on how few people watched this video.
This man is one of the best politicians that this country has ever had, he has a record that is for people & for peace.
If people can see it means the are blind.
Mike, you are my President.

Wow ! Mike tells it like it is. I would imagine Mike is the Clinton nightmare. There's no stopping Big Mike. Mike is a Patriot !!!
Considering all the sellouts, it's hard to think of anyone besides Mike in the Oval Office.
Go Gravel !!!! Peace.
