Jello Biafra Speech DNC 2008 Open The Debate

[MCkirby666]

Jello's a boss!

[yzetta]

I'm going to write in Jello Biafra for President 2012.

[abcd123476479]

It is great to see an original "punk-brother" is still keeping the spirit of punk alive! I'm tired of seeing these idiots with their perfectly shaped pho-hawks. They are a travesty of what punk is about. They have nothing important to say or discuss. Punk is in the heart!

[punktillidie27]

I wonder if he could get Ron Paul because Paul would end all the bullshit that he's talking about

[chrisdryer]

$300 means we are going to buy things that $300 can afford... a weekend of porn and alcohol. Seriously...

[wackytabacky44]

this guy has all the right ideas.

i hope he becomes president.

[LibertyMike1]

Hey Jello, since Obama was elected, we saw the renewal of the Patriot Act, more troops sent to the Middle East, more bailouts to the corporations, etc. Unfortunately, we have been Bill Clintoned again!

[Shawnajosephine]

Jello is yummy. I'd like some in 2012 please. Enough of the self-serving deal-makers!

[kssocialist]

Jello is a genius, but I think we can find him a better job than pres, in the revolution!

[899289]

Jello is a clown who will do and say anything to try to seem relevant. He should go away at this point.

[Xcorgi]

In the 80's punk was not just music but an attitude about opposing corrupt government. Jello may not have the band anymore but still has the brilliant idealism that made his music so great to begin with!!!

[ForgottenRebel77]

I wrote in Jello for my first election in 2008 and i will do so every year from now on. Everybody should do this. Lets make Jello Biafra President!

[scandawarrior]

@ForgottenRebel77 Thanx man

[scandawarrior]

Even though I disagree with a few of his views, this ex-punk still addmires they way Jello can talk with Some BALLS.

[ForgottenRebel77]

@scandawarrior ex-punk? Hey just because you dont still wear bondage pants and studded jackets anymore doesn't make you not punk. Once a punk always a punk.

[trevoretcetc]

i think he is a very good speaker with good ideals, but i dont think he is all around strong enough to be the president. he would make a great mayor though

[Viggetorr]

@trevoretcetc Oh, and Bush was?

[SeaverofSweden]

I disagree with some of jellos politics, being a libertarian and all, but he delivers the truth. I can relate to the 3rd party censorship by the despotic main two parties. Jello speaks the truth.

[jtsales]

I knew that JB has potical skills ...just read his lyrics to see how clever and intelligent he was (is) ,,, if I were American, I surely voted JB for president...

But my question is: How many people like JB would be necessary to change this world?

JTS from Brazil

[RookofIvory]

He keeps flipping me off. :<

[SubMCO]

Looooove the Jello!

[ewkeane]

This got absolutely no air play on MSM.

[bugsycline]

run jello,

RUN!

2012 you got my vote

[tubekills]

O jello just make music..please

[PsychoPunk1965]

I was made as hell that Dennis Kucinich dropped out after the deliberate attempt by the mainstream corporate media to just have the Democratic primaries as nothing more than the bland Barak Obama / Hillary Clinton great slug out. To me, Barack Obama seemed nothing more than just another centrist. I was planning to vote for Barack Obama with a great deal of reluctance until I heard this speech by Jello Biafra. In my 40 years of living, I voted for third party presidential candidates mostly.

[chauntball]

damn i was there, and it still gets me irate...it really does.

JELLO FOR PRESIDENT!!!

[jrfpunk]

that was a fucking amazing speach

[JLoveBomb]

It's weird how for years and years and years thinkers like Eugene V. Debs and Emma Goldman to Jello Biafra end up being correct about everything, yet we as a whole still blow them off as "fringe" extremists and merrily consume our way into our own demise and imprisonment. I'm not comparing those people, just their messages and mindsets.

We Americans definitely get the leaders we deserve. Nothing more.

[glasseecube]

@JLoveBomb AMEN! its sad but true...

[lordhighexecutioner]

More than prison. According to the War Crimes Act of 1996, Bush is eligible for the death penalty, as he is responsible for torturing people to death. According to that law, the penalty for that is death. That he has not been charged shows that the equal administration of justice is a myth... not that there was much doubt of that.

[1Heretic]

I wish Jello was the president of US

[DissidentDescendant]

I wish there was no president, no U.S., and more people like Jello.

[JLoveBomb]

Afuckingmen.

[MrNoahFx]

JELLO BIAFRA 2012!

[Teenagefreedomfightr]

I must say during the the election I thought this was pretty awesome but now that once again "our" democrats have become weak even though they could be invincible it is truly incredible. Jello called it right all the way through.

He didn't even win San Francisco back in the day lol. Although good Jello inside joke.

[jharby62]

We'd better start thinking hard about oil consumption and population or it's gonna get alot worse. Governments will seek to control large populations. Evil forces of one kind or another will seek to eliminate the "undesirables" when there are too many of us. Listen to Fear "Let's have a war".

[CyanideSovereign]

"... Jello has been noted as a potential candidate for the 2012 election." wiki'

Is this true?

[punklover99]

lets hope

[RP1117]

jello's a badass, he's been through so much and has SO much experience over the years.

Jello 2012!

[shiziest]

wow he looks like a fat gay guy now

[RealEros1]

lol he lost some weight dough :)

[punkrock1593]

seriously jello has to be president. he is the only one that can do it right

[punkrockgrl1977]

Biafra 2012!!!

[ImaGoofyGooberYEAH]

JELLO FOR PRESIDENT 2012!

[Thrice13]

Ive been saying it, Jello should really consider running for a position such as State Assembly or something along the lines of that. I think he could do alot of good in local politics.

[justanotherbum007]

Thanks for posting this!!!

[mjmorrow76]

My hero!

[cheddar21]

Is that true about the ICO replacing our troops in 2004?

[9superior9god9]

It's sad really, the amount of overall views jellos gotten. Post more if ya got'em people

[MexicanMarine]

If only Jello came to my thanksgiving dinner and put my uncle in his place. My uncle attacked me just because I did not vote for Obama.

[9superior9god9]

votes are always keep completely private. always.

Didn't u think ?

[drj923X]

truth can be unsettling

[Thrice13]

It should have been Nader/Biafra 08! Jello has great views, along with being a great performer.

[zephyr2046]

Thank god for the security, I wish they would have had this security when kennedy was shot or martin luther king,

[SnowflakeDryad]

i've heard theories that those two were taken out by CIA operatives and were allowed to die. Maybe a conspiracy theory, maybe not. I've read some crazy crap on those subjects. Not sure what to think anymore...

[betternottellyou]

I've heard something like that before. I've also heard that it was LBJ that shot him.

Also, no matter what you think, make sure you think for yourself.

[SnowflakeDryad]

Quite so. That's something one should never forget.

[PandguinProductions]

Even though I dislike politics, he does know what he's talking about, and he's entertaining at the same time which is rare for a politician.

[MikePhilbin]

JB's a fucking hero.

[rumpelstillskin65]

GO NADER
