Veterans March Update
Submitted by xtreat on Tue, 08/21/2012 - 12:46I have confirmation from Ron Paul himself that he "has no problem at all with the veterans parade that is a peaceful demonstration against the war."
I have gotten quite a few texts and PM's from people inquiring about the veterans march, whether or not it is cancelled, and what the deal is.
Here is the deal. Adam Kokesh is no longer involved in the veterans march on the RNC. We essentially have no leadership and no plan that I know of. That being said I have heard from a lot of people that they want to do it anyways. I have not ruled out that this march may take place. I would recommend showing up at the fairgrounds at the 11 o'clock Monday morning as planned. Maybe I and some others can patch this together if we can get enough participation.
All ideas and criticisms are welcome. I will however be out of the net for the next 24-48 hours as I travel and visit with family before I leave for Korea.

I'm sure a REAL
leader with a really big pair will step up and lead!
Your morals =/= my laws.
Leaderless, peaceful,
Leaderless, peaceful, r3VOLution -- Show the country how well it can work!
It will NOT be
Leaderless!
In any military formation, there MUST be a leader!
It will be peaceful, and well represented!

Veterans March on Monday
We will be there. The Grassroots will assemble peacefully, united behind Ron Paul, Liberty and Freedom.
For those who can not be there, we will march for you and you will be proud of us.
HECK YES! Tropical Storm R3VOLUTION!

Staunch supporter of Adam in the past, but not with this move.
"...I have confirmation from Ron Paul himself that he "has no problem at all with the veterans parade that is a peaceful demonstration against the war."
hummm...sounds like Dr. Paul just issued the orders that Adams asked for in his closing sentence, doesn't it? Seems like it's Adams move, but it may be too late as he has alienated so many in the Liberty Movement with his recent videos about this issue. I hope others step up to take his place as I feel this is the most important event planned...the statement is far more important then Adam's feelings at this point. I can understand handing over the reins to another, but to cancel the event, when so many have spent money, adjusted schedules and were, and are still, flat out committed to going, due to the importance of the statement, is deeply disappointing.
I would have held Adam in much higher esteem if he had sucked it up, did the event, and afterwards vented about the BS that happened to him. He could have been a martyr for Liberty, but this way he just lets the other vets down and loses the respect of many in the movement.
If my need to be RIGHT is greater then my desire for TRUTH, then I will not recognize it when it arrives ~ Libertybelle
Kokesh
Kokesh has personal issues with Benton, and has been trying to tear down the March. Personally I am very disappointed in Adam for talking bad about Paul claiming Paul is turning his back on us.
Paul has served fighting for Liberty since before many of us were born and has been a oak staying true to his beliefs. Adam is a jackass for questioning Pauls integrity when the Liberty movement is at such a critical point.
Stop being selfesh Adam, and anyone who agrees with Adam. This movement is THE LAST chance we have for taking our country back peacefully. Wake up and put things in perspective.
Get your asses to Tampa and fight for your Liberty. Don't fall for the disinformation ment to stop us.

Adam Kokesh is no longer involved in the veterans march

It's a shame Adam's not
It's a shame Adam's not leading the march, if in fact that turns out to be the case. He's been one of our leaders and loudest voices during this battle of ideas. I hope the march still happens though whoever leads it, as the message was censored on President's Day on the White House Lawn, which was the premiere week for Act of Valor, and the current situation with Brandon Raub, as well as the escalation toward yet another war. I think it's important.
Absolutely! Do it again! No
Absolutely! Do it again! No other event in this campaign has been as moving as the Veteran's March on Washington. Marching in step, calling out in unison, it represented unity of purpose, power and virility - (female vets, notwithstanding.)
I was a Sergeant of Marines
and I'd be honored to lead a platoon of Marines, past, present and even future through the streets of Tampa for Ron Paul, halt them in front of the RNC at parade rest. If no one minds me being the Platoon Sergeant calling drill, that is.
I confess it's a shame my dress blues don't fit anymore (er, right now, lol) and I don't have a Mameluke Sword, but still.
Yes!
Thank You Sgt!
We need intergrity and honor in this march!
Semper Fi!

Someone has to, thanks for stepping up. Might want to contact them.

March my brothers and sisters, March!
So Adam punked out at the last minute. I like and respect Adam a lot. I found this news to be quite the bummer. Am I to understand he's not going because the 'numbers' won't be there? I always thought Adam would march by himself if need be to take a principled stand against the war. Yet more proof nobody's perfect(thank Dog)!
Regardless, if any group can organize themselves in a jiffy, it should be our military men and women. Just find someone with the highest rank to lead the march. Problem solved. I hope as many as possible attend, I've been looking forward to it for months!
For Peace!
With or without "marching orders" from any particular character,
may you, Soldiers & Veterans for Ron Paul, be heard, seen, respected and honored by all of us, who are coming to Tampa to deliver our messages of Liberty, Peace & Prosperity.
YOU and your voices are at the core of our liberty movement.

Has been walking to Tampa from Georgia. March with him in Tampa, he's not turning around.
We Are The GOP! Ron Paul Republicans!
Willing to do what many won't.
Sounds like as good a candidate as any. Would love to have this guy:

Would be
Awesome if General Clark joined the r3volution. Unfortunate that he's a democrat.
We Are The GOP! Ron Paul Republicans!
I'll be there.
And so will two of my fellow YAL officers, both vets. They don't care if Adams leading it or not. We want to march for Dr. Paul.
I'm glad he's out.
The guy is losing it and no telling what he would have led them into.
Me too
It's too bad they relied on him to organize the event in the first place, but I'm sure they'll get it done on their own anyway.
I'm not
now we don't have a planned organised veterans march. Congratulations Moron's for dividing yet another good thing.
Keep it up and you wont have ANYTHING left after the convention except a sun bleached Ron Paul bumper sticker to worship you dumbasses.....
Oh and i really enjoyed the Dolt yesterday in another thread who stated the march on Washington looked like Germany 1930...Idiots!..
Where do you fcknuts get off anyway?...
"If ever time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin."
Samuel Adams
Not sure who you are calling Morons, but
the one person who disabled the march was Kokesh. It's his personal right to jump ship at the last minute, but it is breaking an unstated covenant to people who thought they could trust his steady judgement and stalwart leadership.
I'm talking about
the people who go out of their way to bash Kokesh constantly, many times for simply telling the truth. That CRAP i read yesterday about the march on Washington looking like Germany 1930 and the animals that vote it up.
The same mentality goes after anybody relentlessly when they say something they don't want to hear or acknowledge even when its true or staring them in the face.
Same thing with Gerald Celente yesterday. The man tells the truth and its a free for all but 10 minute before he was a Saint. If i was Adam i would probably say f it myself. You guys would have just figured more ways to bash him for showing up...Its BEYOND ridiculous now.
Say what you want about Adam but HE COULD have gotten the job done! Pat yourselves on the back for it not happening....
"If ever time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin."
Samuel Adams
Celente lost a bunch of bucks in Gold certificates about 6 mos
ago. He invested in paper that was secured by collateral he had no control over, and ended up with paper! waa laa! He didn't see THAT obvious risk?
In God We Trust, everyone else puts up GOOD collateral ~Jimmy Napier ; key word being GOOD. -9_9-
Your Sam Adams quote reminds me of Kokesh & Kokesh reminds me of Charlie Sheen.
Ha !
but i'll bet a dollar to your doughnut Kokesh, Celente and Charlie can still takes dumps bigger than you Squirrely......
and my Sam Adams quote reminds me of Ron Paul..
You know what i hear? Whaaa Whaaaa.... ;)
"If ever time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin."

Think before you post: "i'll bet a dollar to your doughnut Kokesh, Celente and Charlie can still takes dumps bigger than you Squirrely......"
How did their rectums get so stretched out? lol! You have a man crush.
LoL! I think you are
Adam!
Just say'in.

"sun bleached Ron Paul bumper sticker" ... Removed mine.
The GOP is dead to me. I will never vote for either of the parties ever again. Anyone who does is only perpetuating the fraud and giving power to the beast. This is Germany circa 1934 all over again.
