  • Kelly is a musician, that's why people should like/dislike her, based on her music alone. She can have any political belief she likes and not be called a "C U Next Tuesday"

    And to be fair Kelly is from Texas at the end of the day. It would be a bigger suprise if she came out as a Democrat. She always seemed the typical Libertarian to me.

    Right on Kelly!!

  • Aside from the fact that Ron did not write the letters, has anyone actually read them IN CONTEXT, they really are not at all like the little snippets the media loves to put out there to stir shit up, but ofcourse, who would do research on their own, that would take to much work, easier to just think the worst about a person.

  • @motter28218 Nobody did, even the quasi-journalists who are the hosts of this poser-journalism show "The Young Turks" didn't think of the context, how do you think an average hypnotized-by-the-media non-caring American would fare?

  • Who the fuck cares?

  • Tuesday 3 times... she must have liked it so much.

    Hey, Thursday works for you too, Ana. ^_^

  • newsletters, sysly cos stuff written 20 years ago is much more important than ending wars

  • Supports Gay Rights and Republican? OMIGOD. That's Spectacular. Haterz Gonna Hate.

  • Who the fuck is Kelly Clarkson?

  • If I have to I will write in Ron Paul.

  • "Kelly Clarkson... not her job to be a political pundent or a political researcher" Yeah that's your job you young turds.

  • C U next tuesday... lol i'd never heard of that one. Thanx Ana!!

  • Why do these and others of their ilk dwell so much on those newsletters? They are witnessing a lot of "liberals/progressives" turning away from Obama and the Democrat Party and moving toward Ron Paul. They don't have much beyond the "racist newsletters" to deter this. They should know full well that not only did RP not write the newsletters, but that he is most certainly not a racist.

    The fact is, any smear they try to bring up against RP pales in comparison to what Obama is doing.

  • waww

    

  • wtf? people are crazy, kelly clarkson is right and she only voiced her opinion that she liked him and was voting for him. ron paul is ignored a lot of the times, she was correct. ron paul is the best choice, the rest are flip floppers and obama is too entertained with the fame he has to do anything else. with crazy ass people on twitter no wonder celebs want less interaction with fans, those crazy ones ruin it for the rest. i could care less though, i'm not really a fan of hers but still.

  • ok guy first off, not ron pauls news letters. just because they have his name on it doesn't mean jack. being that is the only dirt yall can dig up, why dont you just tell the truth. or stfu and dig yourself a hole.

  • I really dont like this gentleman. To me hes no different than a primetime zionist. He knows shit about shit and having a microphone makes him very dangerously stupid.

  • You DO care Cenk about what and who Kelly supports politically or you wouldn't be talking about it trying to hint she's somehow a loser for supporting Ron Paul. You are very transparent.

  • i'll buy something of kelly's now, i've won't in the pass. what would be the best item that she will receive the most?

  • I was already a Ron Paul supporter, and now I am a Kelly Clarkson fan.

  • Wow these guys have a show?  Who are these people? Ron Paul 2012

  • Best clip I've seen from these liberals. Freedom of speech works for them.

  • Ron Paul Money Bomb February 1, Carol and Ron Paul have been married for 55 years, let us celebrate!!!

  • RON PAUL 2012!!!!!!!

  • @MrLettuceguy Ron Paul Money Bomb February 1, Carol and Ron Paul have been married for 55 years, let us celebrate!!!

  • interesting... when matt damon make political comments he is praised by the young turds. and when kelly clarkson says something about ron paul she is blasted by cenk. very strange i wonder why the difference in the 2

  • Clarkson's album sales went up 600% after this endorsement?? yeah that is what I call bad business...

  • How can you still hate Ron Paul? Unless you are reliant on government entitlements.

  • @realpeterfranco1 Ron Paul Money Bomb February 1, Carol and Ron Paul have been married for 55 years, let us celebrate!!!

  • "I have no idea what I wrote in that newsletter." --- WrongPaul.

  • RON PAUL RAPED MY YARD GNOME !

  • WHAT AN IDIOT !

  • Ron Paul loaned his name to a newsletter. He contributed articles to it periodically along with others under the guise of being his voice. Turns out some racist articles, written by James B. Powell made there way into some issues. (Look it up folks). Is Ron Paul guilty of using some poor judgement? Perhaps he should have been more hands on but he chose to focus on his medical practice instead. Cenk I don't know if you addressed this or not so here is your chance. RP IS NOT RACIST

  • The fact that people actually look to Twitter for insight is beyond sad. Talking about politics and freedom is not allowed in social media? Or is it heavy trolling. I'm thinking the ladder.

  • Who exactly do Cenk and Ana support for president? They've got to like Ron Paul as a person more than the rest of the candidates for not being corrupt and bought out. When we know the others are spewing pure lies, and find out who pays them you can't take them seriously anymore.

  • RON PAUL 2012!!!

  • hahaha @2:26

  • who could vote for Obama after not vetoing the NDAA ? with the help of finish the dang fence Mc cain and no lawyer for you Linsey Gram. Ron Pauls son Rand was 1of 7 senators not sign it. What's with the barnyard provision? what the hell?

  • @natemorte Theres no alternative..Ron pauls an old fool too ... There is nobody out there that would be a full un funded purist that would just run the country like a normal person. We will continue to be lost untill our last generation and this generation starts actually learning about politics before they try to vote for some bullshit Person like Ron Paul.

  • @DJRAKKK They're learning what the FED is and know Ron Paul is the only one with a track of going after the FED it's a shame it took so long for people to hear his message /hh5kIWstmf8

  • @DJRAKKK debbie downer

    

  • Go Kelly!! I disagree with your choice for president but I FULLY embrace your right to choose and endorse whom you want!!!

  • If Ron Paul can't disavow the newsletters than the Democrats can't disavow supporting a party that continually elected and embodied people like Robert Byrd, a former recruiter and leader of a KKK chapter. You knew about and still supported the party. Does that mean you support those views? Of course not!

  • Wow, YTK's are really the smallest of the small minded, giving Kelly Clarkson a pass because she supported Ron Paul? Who died and left these self-annointed nobodies in charge of handing out passes?

  • These 'turks' aren't too bright. Let me guess, they like Hillary & Obama. What a joke.

  • The male host (I forget his name), looks like he's about to break down in tears.

  • fucking annoyting text

  • What about a lll the celebrities endorsing obama?lol

  • I didn't like Clarkson before this news...I still don't care for her music but like her politics!

  • Every mention of THESE NEWSLETTERS makes me sick. They were explained 1000 times.

    Ron Paul is just not able to hate anybody.

  • hey HEY she won American Idol

  • C U Next Tuesday ha ha that was a good one. Kelly Clarkson has a good soul..

  • GOD let this damn racism shit die why do they repeatedly bring this crap up he has cleared it up over and over and over again! Jesus minorities love this wonderful man. legalize mariguana so i can drive my hemp powered vehicle!!!!

  • cee you next tuesday hahahahahahaha

  • her record sales went up 200% lol. yokes on everyone else.

    

  • What the hell is this show and what is your qualification to be "pundits" any more than Kelly Clarkson? Jesus.

  • No press is bad press! At least she got them talking about him, which with the media blackout, is not a bad thing! I heard about RON PAUL from Felonious Munk who said "A guylike Ron Paul...He's basically Unelectable". I went Hmmmm and started researching him. Now I am a DIEHARD PAUL Supporter. Thanks Munk, Thanks Kelly you got people talking and digging into who he is! Now I have exposed him to all of my friends when a negative comment led me to him!

  • THERE ARE NO YOUNG TURKS ONLY FAG TURKS

    RON PAUL 2012

    GEORGIOS KARATZAFERIS 2012

  • Kelly had a great endorsement till the end

  • Thanks Kelly for speaking out.. Ron Paul will win. Obama can use his teleprompter in that debate... It won't help a bit. Paul has got truth on his side.

  • RON PAULLLLL

  • Shit peddelers. Nothingness drawn out and out. Be on the look out for those that attempt to divert you and confuse you.

  • the newsletter are bullshit 4 fucks sake

  • Everyone please view the video link that "hehefromhere" posted in these comments about the newsletters. The video contains the most specific details helping get to the bottom of it as I've ever seen or heard.

  • nice translation ;)

    

  • I'm voting for Ron Paul. I'm at 20 year old college student that researched him for three weeks before deciding finally he will be the best president in the History of man-kind.

  • @flareagaman HA HA HA, That's a joke right?

  • @flareagaman

    Would you look at the similarities.... I'm a 20 year old college student who also has been researching ron paul, looking into who he is and what he stands for.... and I decided a long time ago there was no way in hell I'd vote for him.

  • @flareagaman Welp your wrong...he lives in a magic vaccum Corporations will continue to tear this country apart 10 years after he would be president because he has no backup plan. he thinks there should be no EPA or any regulation. He lives in a land of "everyones honest" hes wrong. Your wrong. Obama is a baught president. Ron Paul is a Isolationist our country wasnt built on selfishness either. We need a real president to run who isnt a Fool or a Crook.

  • @flareagaman Ive researched him for FIVE YEARS now and Ive read his first book "Revolution: A Manifesto." Ive also researched the newsletter witch hunt since that was so 97/08 and MOVED ON!!! I didn't believe that he wrote them from day 1 since the story broke THE DAY of the Carolina caucus, and was complete botched journalism that they retracted the next day. I know that there are a lot of powerful people that will be reeling if he gets the presidency, and I KNOW he will be the best president

  • @flareagaman Me too! Same age and everything.

  • @flareagaman "I'm at 20 year old college student that researched him for three weeks before deciding.."

    ==

    What did you read or watch during 3 weeks of research?

    I'd like to take a look.

  • lol @ the comments xD

  • Matt Damon states something smart LOL!

  • I would like everyone including TheYoungTurks watch this: /watch?v=h0hpiwfM2qo

    It's about Ron Paul newsletters! He did NOT write them :)!

  • @hehefromhere Thanks for posting this info! Please continue to spread the word and I will try to start sharing it. I was so shocked and impressed at how in depth that journalist went to discover the facts because you don't get that from the mainstream.

  • Ron Paul 2012 :)

  • anyone who doesn't take the time to educate them selves on what the TRUTH is and what Ron Paul really is about, you would not think so poor about him. There is SO MUCH more going on in the country then just POLITICS! OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES!!!!

  • Let me tell you how stupid you really are the only reason you dont like RON PAUL is because of what the media has been telling you.. now think about that and smack yourself in the head for me... there thats better i just woke you up! DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!!!

  • I honestly cant believe how brainwashed and fried the USA is right now its sickening.. Im from Australia for god sake and i can see that Ron Paul is the only hope for the USA and the world and he is not anywhere next to racist do your freaken research you morons. Stop believing everything the media tells you, your like little fucken children WAKE THE FUCK UP!!! and research the candidates your selfs all of them and i can GARUNTEE that RON PAUL will be the one you vote for!! RON PAUL 2012!!!!!!!

  • kelly shouldnt have apologized she didnt offend anyone by saying her fucking opinion... we are all entitled to it. p.s. ron paul is awesome. if u disagree, cool. thats what voting is for. not gunna cry over it. bitches.

  • It's amazing to me how pissed people get over a legit point of view....

  • Im a Muslim and Ilove Ron Paul .I know about his news letter.But still RON PAUL is the best candiate and way better than OBAMA.

  • Ron Paul 2012 !!!

  • v=2rpQQxGNfz0 another EPIC video someone did. Probably one of the best I've seen on youtube. It's called "Ron Paul Redemption" or just go to my channel and check it out! RON PAUL 2012!!

  • I am gay, but i support Ron Paul. Why the hell would i do that if i thought he was anti- gay? I saw Ron with Bruno (sascha baron cohen) and Paul was really polite to this extreme flamboyent gay person even when Bruno almost sexually harrased Paul. And it doesnt fit his liberatarian principles at all. Its just another lying attempt of the media including these young turks i guess.

  • How in the world didn't Ron Paul end up more admired than Newt Gingrich or Donald Trump in that survey? Paulites, you have failed Him!

  • Does he get her ass's vote too? His support is increasing dramatically!

  • thats actually a good view of ron paul

  • Really sick of this newsletter garbage. That's what it is. Garbage. They were investigated twice in the 90's and Ron Paul wasn't even in politics then and was in his obgyn practice. He didn't write them. It was a still anonymous author penning under his name. Done. Over. If this was ANY OTHER POLITICIAN except Ron Paul then the fact that he didn't write them would be enough.

  • Comment removed

  • music-mix(dot)ew(dot)com/2012/­01/02/kelly-clarkson-ron-paul-­sales/

  • @TheChirpingAssholes Her sales were boosted from supporting Ron Paul.

  • @TheChirpingAssholes and Ron Pauls support was boosted along with it. He now has a whole butt load of new young music loving voters that just started waving a flag in agreement.

  • Maybe people like him regardless of "the newsletters" because Ron Paul was speaking the fucking truth regarding this shameless smear-campaign bullshit. What a bunch of C-U Next Tuesdays.

  • Cenk is so nieve he thinks every dept in govt. Is productive. And corruption is at a minimum. He needs to lay off the kool- aid

  • When I see a picture of Kelly Clarkson, or Ron Paul or Bill Maher or anyone I expect a video of them or at least a segment that includes a video of them saying or doing something, not some group of 20/30-somethings giving me a one-sided argument based on their opinion(s). The Young Turks are pissing me off with this prank.

  • These two should not talk politics. I don't think they realize how stupid they sound.

    "I don't know anything about Kelly Clarkson's politics..." What the hell does that even mean?

  • blah... blah.... blah... blah..... blah.... 

  • Ron Paul is such a BOSS that when Kelly Clsrkson endorsed him it helped HER popularity and not his.....i guess Ron PAUL's resume speaks for itself, he doesnt even need some phony celebrity's to promote him like Obama did in 08' (brad pitt, oprah, robert deniro, will smith, george clue(less)ney, etc..) SMH

    RON PAUL 2012!

  • Let the newsletters go he has answered a thousands times and I believe him when he said he didn't read them, turns out having a full time job makes it difficult much of anything else. People make mistakes, just like Santorum probably didn't know about Jerry Sandusky when he sponsored him for a congressional adoption award and I am willing to take that, even though he could have done some more information gathering, people make mistakes. Stay on the real issues Cenk.

  • Clarkson FTW!... obviously KC knows more about freedom than these two communists.

  • I stopped this video as soon as I saw cenk the retarded, fuckface, looney, big government asshole.

  • The subtitles were very helpful indeed.

  • The C word must mean Cute. lol

  • People are remarkably ignorant and intolerant. I don't like watching things like this because I lose hope because so many people are still so stupid. Get over it, people. Do your own research and maybe you'll learn something.

  • Ron Paul probably didn't read those news letters because he was to busy reading through 2,000 page, bureaucratic, unconstitutional, right removing, legislation proposed and supported by both democrats and republicans.

  • @bmrphy20 nice

    

  • @DonEdwardVoiceovers They love him? I will bet you 2 million he does not become president .. They don't love him .. There is a few nuts that are loud that like him , but if you don't have a screw loose and do your research you will not vote for him

  • Cenk and Ana are keeping it real!!! Thank you for being TYT and NOT selling out. Rocky Anderson 2012!!!!!

  • cenk you sell out mother fucker. you know 99% of politicians are corrupt scum, youve even said it in the past, and you know ron paul is the real deal and not corrupt, yet you still run attack pieces on him, knowing too well that he is americas only hope. you sold your soul to al gore you mother fucker. you are a traitor.

  • cenk and anna you are frauds. you are sell out scum.

  • My respect for KC just went up 10 fold.

  • I don't get why people care so much about these newsletters from 15 years ago anyways, most other major candidate has worse baggage from last year alone <.<

  • Comment removed

  • Kelly Clarkson should just shut up and be thankful that she has a singing career. As the many TV singing competitions have shown, a good voice is a common commodity.

  • 'you're allowed to like people, ok, and you're allowed to disagree politically in this country."

    doesn't really seem like it anymore.

  • Cenk didn't look happy.

  • Ron Paul is actually a decent guy wrong on some issues. The other Republicans are completely insane!

  • You didn't add that the sale of her album hit 1st place on amazon and increased 200% in terms of sales after her statement. She also gained at least one new fan that I'm positive of.

  • @kainhart And that does not qualify her as a political pundit any more than Ron Paul's gynaecological expertise qualifies him as an economist.

  • Shut up Cenk you fat socialist pig.

  • @FUZZYisBIG bhahaha!

  • Why would i give a fuck who this heavy assed slab of meat votes for!!!

  • C.U.Next.Tuesday lol

  • Comment removed

  • Thing is I don't get the newsletters that and I know he did not want write nor he did approve but why did he not stop them. I mean come on he was doctor so he can probably afford a lawyer to the sue the guy. He said read them but not stop now come on.

  • @sweetheart2109 Back then RP was a congressman and still practicing medicine.Id say doing both those jobs took up all his time.When someone is running a few enterprises they cant do every thing.They have managers to run the day to day business, its called delegating authority.Id bet cenk dont know everything that goes in in his show,Its absurd he thinks RP should know everything that goes on.That is called micromanaging and it Not a very good management practice.Another example of Media Bias.

  • @rammer561 So he could not have his wife or someone that he can trust handle it

  • such an stupid coments, those turks are worst!

  • Never knew much about kelly clarkson. but she believes in liberty and despises war so I'm going to buy her album

  • SEE YOU NEXT TUESDAY EVERYONE! :D

  • @Griffinltd That's the bandwagon effect of any candidate. The whole "Ron Paul is a cult leader" came directly from Bill O'Reilly and his followers mindlessly regurgitate it. Yes, I saw Ron Paul speak in person a few days ago, and there were a some that were uneducated and parroted his rhetoric. But, there were many educated people who genuinely agree with his positions. Just like Obama, just like any of the other GOP candidates.

  • Kelly Clarkson deserves a fist bump

  • @indians4bobbyjindal One youtube commenter wrote Cenk workd for Jews, thats was not blocked but my comment was???!!! Dont worry I wont give up Ill still keep posting it

  • Cenk is the reason I unsubscribed from this channel.

  • @kaldemvor so? he's everyone there's boss; you're stupid.

  • @hollaboutit All I have to say to that is Ron Paul 2012!

  • @kaldemvor i'll bet that is all you have to say... what else could you? you're stupid.

  • @hollaboutit Since you've "done plenty of research" and you "watch his [Ron Paul's] voting record," then could you tell me when Ron Paul has ever flip-flopped or has ever failed to vote against unconstitutional laws like the Patriot Act? What makes him "a lying, racist, delusional [expletive deleted]?" All I've seen you do is call people names.

    Btw, homonyms is spelled "homonyms," not "hominems."

  • @kaldemvor thank you grammer nazi. 1st of all, his position that there was this supposed golden age where there was no need for regulation and law, and people were "taken care of by the community" is a lie. when was this? there was no need for the civil rights act? i guess even after black folk could vote, they just went to the polls, or did violence get committed upon them for attempting to exercise their rights. his stance on the fed: what was it like before it?

  • these are the lies. the very fact that before the fed the american economy was failing anyway less than 100 years after the us was formed. the successes in the us are things such as ssi, medicare/aid, afdc., etc. he would do away with that if he were to stay consistent. he doesn't believe in public education, which turned the us from an illiterate population, to one of the most literate.

  • so what he proposes, and what he claims the results would be are catagorically false. the minumum wage according to him, is unconstitutional and people would earn better wages without it. we fucking know that isn't true. federal safety regulations are unconstitutional and unnecessary... just ask the people who died in the triangle fire... a glance a history would show you how false hie position is. instead, you have rabid fans, who don't seem to get it; the president is a puppet

  • ron paul is full of shit, and he votes for thing against his own position when politically expedient. he votes for government programs or abstains when its suicide to keep that libertarian bullshit up.

  • @hollaboutit if that was the casse then, why does he continue to say "check my voting record" if it was political suicide to expose himself and his so called "bad record" as you say. Don't pull that propaganda bullcrap in here.

  • @Funnypandalonies did you do that? did you check his voting record, ashole?

  • @hollaboutit you're a little teenager if all you have is unintellectual insults and fake challanges. I haven't heard one bit of proof from you since you started spouting nonsense in this forum. Just a lot of baiting and accusation. Which means any so called "research" you did, if any, was done on the internet in a biased manner. which means you would take the lies along with the bad as long as it saticified your original assumption. you care little for the truth in anything.

  • @Funnypandalonies that's what i thought. you didn't, and you're talking out of your ass.

  • @hollaboutit (cont.) "The American Dream" is on YouTube, and it's entertaining and informative. We would be better off without the minimum wage. I suggest you do some economics research to find out why, as I don't have the space to go into detail. I'd be happy to provide you with my sources, if you wish.

    Btw, grammar is spelled "grammar," not "grammer."

  • @kaldemvor its called a type-o... a typo, get it? all i keep asking is what does the recorded history have to say about it all, and no one has an answer. just insults and attacks... at what point does that piss a person off, and you recieve insults in kind?

  • @hollaboutit Ron Paul doesn't believe that blacks, Hispanics, or any other race, including whites, should have rights that other races don't have. He believes that all individuals, regardless of race, should have the same rights. Ron Paul didn't say that he doesn't believe in public education; he said that he opposes the Dept. of Education. The Fed has been robbing the American public blind since 1913. I don't have the space to go into detail, but to see what I mean, watch "The American Dream."

  • @hollaboutit Actually, that would be "spelling Nazi," not "grammar nazi." Grammar concerns sentence structure and morpholgy, not spelling, but you're welcome.

    Ron Paul never said there was a "golden age" that had no need of regulation and law. Ron Paul opposed the Civil Rights Act because of the infringement of people's property rights. Ron Paul helped to take care of the community. As an ob/gyn, he delivered babies at a reduced rate or for free, including black and other minority babies.

  • @kaldemvor all racist say they have black friends or done something for black people... the constitution says where that laws cannot be created for the common good? just as with federal income taxes, THERE WAS A LEGAL CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. its kind of silly and dishonest to go around saying things that are constitutional amendments are unconstitutional.

  • @hollaboutit all racebaiting racists say that.

  • @kaldemvor he can't, haven't you noticed he's a little flaming troll who has no info for us at all. All he has is stupid repetitive propaganda name calling racebaiting comments. he tells you he knows, but in truth doesn't, it's all smoke and mirrors crap. he's a spammer, mark him as such. he's not worth your time or effort.
