Nice job depicting the size of the attendees. Other videos may get the size of the crowd in front of the stage, but this one is fairly telling of the number of people who descended on Washington for the rally.

@julsHz - Exactly! There were IMHO maybe 150,000 to 200,000 around the area that couldn't even get near the area, much less in the stage sitting area. There were also crowds on Constitution and Pennsylvania Avenue, huge throngs that were wandering around, sitting on museum steps and going into the museums. The crowd was easily over 250,000.

@julsHz - Thanks, since I couldn't get near the stage, I thought I would make the video about that. Don't forget to vote!

The narration at the start of this video.. "In fact, I attended the Beck rally early this year, and the crowd was easily five times the size of that crowd, and this crowd was smiling and having fun, and was very diverse.. I saw kids, dogs, and people from all walks of life and ethnic backgrounds.. A very stark contrast to the beck rally".. WOW, do you even realize how utterly ridiculous you sound in your painting such a basis picture of the "contrast" between the Beck & Stewart rallies? Grow up.

[JTMPAdmin]

@wooolf21 - I don't sound ridiculous, I am editorializing on MY video thank you very much. Its called free speech, and it was also a fact. This crowd was diverse and positive, Beck's crowd consisted of 99.999% pasty white people who frowned and gave off negative vibes. An observation I felt the need to report.

@JTMPAdmin " Beck's crowd consisted of 99.999% pasty white people who frowned and gave off negative vibes" obviously a racist.

[JTMPAdmin]

@megagagnon1 A racist is someone who denigrates another race. What i was doing is describing what made up Beck's crowd, I am pointing out a fact, not denigrating a whole race. I was making fun of a sub-section of that race. I love young, progressives, not old, crusty conservatives.

Wow I thought I had a really bad standing spot, but at least I could see the monitors and hear the speakers.

[SapphireBlaze9]

True. We really were smiling and having fun. I noticed the age difference, too. It was cool to see all the other various fans- we all had one thing in common- our taste in comedy! The crowd was thick, but everyone was so nice! I was in the middle of the crowd, trying to move closer to the stage, and people moved as much as possible to let me through!

[wooolf21]

@SauraElanthier Sorry, nice try... It's much more than a mere age difference, it's the fact that you, most likely, have only lived on your own, as an adult, for a mere few years, yet like most young people, you think you already know everything... However, the cold hard truth is, you lack any real substantive life experience... So, again, get back to me in about 10 years... I guarantee that your perspective on things will have changed for the better and wiser... Good luck.

[SauraElanthier]

@wooolf21 I am old enough to know what i need to know and discard remarks from someone who finds their opinion more valuable due to a mere age difference.

[wooolf21]

@SauraElanthier You are obviously a child. Go get some life experience under your belt and get back to me in 10 years or so.

[SauraElanthier]

@megagagnon1 I'd prefer pasty white to birdshit, honestly ;p

[megagagnon1]

@SauraElanthier Red herring fallacies? Maybe you should learn the meaning of words before you use them. He included their race in his derogatory description of the crowd. That's racist. Instead of saying "pasty white people" let's say he said Sharpton's rally was just a bunch of "eight ball people". Anyway the term "pasty white" is a racist term used by white haters - look in the urban dictionary. "Pasty white" is a racist term - not the most extreme racism, but still racist.

[SauraElanthier]

@wooolf21 libtard? are you kidding me? who the hell coined this phrase anyway? Go back to your kitchen and make with the babies, it's what conservatives believe is more important than the well-being of the world, right? Oops, that was an assumption of every person who goes under your category: female conservative. Does it hurt? Sting a bit? Suck it up. Swallow it while you're down there, too. you don't want to make a mess. Also, before you yell at me for being sexist, I am female too.

[SauraElanthier]

@megagagnon1 What if he said "Angry, crusty old people who are very conservative"? That would be ageist, right? There's a difference between saying "pasty white people" and "racist crackers", wouldn't you agree? I think you just like to pull out red herring fallacies in an effort to look more intelligent. Stop while you're ahead, you're only embarrassing yourself.

[wooolf21]

@o0zeroeffect0o... Nope, your ridiculous libtard rally did not anger me... It made me laugh... It was hilarious watching you mindless sheep doing the "wave"... and, it's "Ms. Conservative", not "Mr. Conservative"... Do you libtards ever get tired of being wrong? ...and who cares about Beck's rally? I know that I don't give a shit... However, you will be taking your own advice on Nov. 2nd... The midterm elections are going to force you to "swallow the truth and take it like a man"... ROFLMAO!!!
