It's not enough to say "Vote Ron Paul"
In order for Dr.Paul to win, HE NEEDS THE PRIMARY. That's the toughest part.
IF YOU WANT TO VOTE IN PRIMARY YOU HAVE TO BE REGISTERED REPUBLICAN! If you don't switch parties in time, (3 months ahead in some states from now) YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO VOTE!!
Go to BLUEREPUBLICAN(dot)ORG and register ASAP! Copy and paste this everywhere! Thumbs up to help this be on top.

OUR DEBT HAS GONE UP A TRILL SINCE THIS WAS FILMED

Well there's always the parliamentary system... then there's Ron Paul making the argument that there should be no fight on the hill because everyone took the same oath of office... definitely the lobbyists, entitlements, subsidies, and special interest groups are to blame... as there is too much money in who controls the legislation. This is a good flick, by all means... but Ron Paul sticks to the Constitution, and that's good enough for me. (NO Fed NO income tax which just goes to the fed)

First a third party, than a fourth, than a fifth and so on and so on. You people are way to short sighted. You only care about what happens for your generation and the next, but hardly the ones down the line. For those who support Ron Paul, have you ever considered what will come after his presidency? Everything becomes corrupt over time. Everything.

@86Jrod The electoral college is the best isea the founders had. If we had a straight majority vote, the entire midwest would be slaves of New York and Los Angeles. Every state is awarded seats in congress by population. So more populous states have more say. But this is molified by adding two additional votes for each State's senators, making smaller states more equal to the larger States. Else, large population centers would cancel out huge swaths of America.

When is this country going to wake up and "shake the trees" a bit. My grandfather an immigrant from Greece, called Both the Republicans and the Democrats,"A two-headed dog serving one master". It's a 'good ole boys club", and no one else is allowed in. Why don't we vote a third party in and send a loud and clear message that 'business as ususal 'just won't cut it anymore!

It's called the Electoral College. Even if he does get voted in, they won't allow him to be president. Don't get your hopes up too high, but you can still vote for him. I don't wanna see all your hearts break!!

@OriginalIntentDoc You have not understood her philosophy then. She was CLEARLY against government handouts and she was NOT for government initiating force, only retaliation against force with force. I have never heard of this term called "limiting ideology" in her work, and I've read almost all of it. I would say the error is in your understanding of the work, and not in her work itself. Also, she uses words that MEAN something different than what you might think they mean. She defines them.
Ron Paul is obviously the only candidate that's remotely following the US Constitution. Face it, the nation is moving Libertarian and it's about time. See w w w . jaegerresearchinstitute . org/articles/ronpaul . htm

With all the talk on philosophy in this video (at least up to the 30-minute mark), why is there no mention of Ayn Rand? She was the one who proved everything from top to bottom - more than anyone before her. All of the stuff that's happening today, she also concluded would happen. The remarkable aspect to her philosophy is that she proved it all. None of it is arbitrary. I agree with a lot of the content in this video, but it's a shame that a great AMERICAN philosopher was never mentioned.

@egervari If you watch the 2-hr version at spoilerusa dot org, we address the philosophies that lead to the Progressive Era in detail. Rand was not mentioned because she has the incorrect "limiting ideology" for government, that of "initiatory force". This leads to anarcho-capitalism, a violation of Aristotle's golden mean. The correct "limiting ideology" is getting rid of special privilidegs. When government can provide hand out endless privilidges, it grows endlessly. -- James Jaeger

Ron Paul consistently gets about 12% from the "Pat Buchanan conservatives" in the GOP. If Dr. Paul goes Indy, he will pick up 15% from Independents who don't vote for GOP. All he now needs is 11% from the disenchanted Democrats and this gives him 38% -- enough to win the Presidency in a 3-man race.
