Adam Kokesh Announces Bid for Congress

SANTA FE, NM- July 6, 2009 - Peace & Liberty activist and Iraq war veteran, Adam Kokesh, announces bid for congressional seat in New Mexico's Third Congressional District as announcement brings in over $25,000 in a single day despite servers being overwhelmed and crashing. Signs spring up all over the district urging people to join the "Kokesh r3VOLution."

Adam Kokesh announced at the event, "Celebrate American r3VOLution" that he would seek a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. Kokesh referenced Thomas Paine's "The Crisis" as he announced, "'These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country . . . Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered.' So began the great American tradition of winter soldiering. I have decided that for myself, the greatest way to continue that tradition is to run for Congress to represent New Mexico's Third Congressional District."

@newjack31622 i guess you're 1 of 2 dislikes for this video?

[newjack31622]

Adam Kokesh is a giant fucking pussy who bans people from his youtube vids who dare criticize him. What a coward and hypocrite.

@plightoftheMany Hahahaha. You think I can be serious with people from youtube? You're just nuts.

[plightoftheMany]

@toxicbytes Ha, he is fighting for real equality and freedom from oppression around the world. The revolution has begun, stop being afraid of your master, and join the cause. We are Anonymous. Expect Us

[toxicbytes]

Sounds like an Amway convention. Spread the alarmist neo-patriot issue. Kokesh is a puppet of the puppet master Russia. Media mercenaries are given a stage by Russia Today.

[ThirdPartyRevolution]

Adam Kokesh, you're a failure. You got yourself brainwashed into thinking that the GOP can be "restored", and yet you only got about 20% of the vote in a two way primary. You would have been better off running as a third party or independent candidate. Maybe you can do that next election.

[stephenfer7]

lmao, kokesh go back to your redneck, hate mongoring, fake christian state of texas. we dont like your kind here, and you will not win. why? because the citizens of the third disctrict of new mexico (like myself) do not support your ideals. that is why your rallies here are always so small.

lets go ben lujan jr. you will be re-elected.
