i'm not mad at this video one

Submitted by gizzy on Thu, 09/13/2012 - 23:22.

i'm not mad at this video one bit.

look, I absolutely adore the man Ron Paul...but, the candidate Ron Paul wasn't the greatest organizer of all time & Adam does a great job at touching on the truths that alot of us would just rather act like don't exist. It hurts to find out your hero isn't as great as you believed him to be. But, at the end of the day...like Adam said, he's the one that delivered the message. None of us would be here & be involved like we are without Ron Paul. With that said...I will never give another penny to Ron Paul in the way of donations. I'll continue to buy his books...but that's about it. And as Tom Woods said...I will never give a penny to ANY campaign that Jesse Benton is associated with. So, hopefully Jesse is nowhere near Rand in 2016.

I'd like to be a fly on the wall at Ron's house this

Bust out the DMT

That was by far the coolest

That was by far the coolest thing Kokesh has ever done.

DMT is as rare as serotonin and tryptophan, and nearly identical, and in your body. It's everywhere. Nature is the one that busted it out!

If it ain't natural, it ain't right!:)

That many people here are afraid to face up to.

The Sad truth that Jesse Benton did'nt stop you from doing anything.

He managed to stop Tom Woods

From contributing his considerable talents to the election campaign of Ron Paul

http://www.dailypaul.com/254620/tom-woods-clears-the-air

Jesse, on the other hand, denounced me in a series of emails, and made perfectly clear that I was to be cut off from everything — the campaign, Campaign for Liberty, etc. He referred to my “boorish behavior” (you know me — always the boor), and told me from now on to leave him and his family alone. Nice touch, that last part, implying that I was likely to stalk his wife.

Naively, I assumed another top person, whom I will not name, would be as appalled at Jesse’s behavior toward a longtime supporter as I was. So I (gleefully) forwarded the correspondence to him, only to be told that Jesse’s conduct was not unprofessional at all [!]. But I would not technically be banned from C4L, I was told.

Woods accepts responsibility for allowing himself to stopped.

He says it was naive but within his power.

If you think you can truly be controlled then you haven't learned the first thing shout liberty.

Tom Woods could not speak with Ron Paul himself?

Maybe that "top person" that Tom speaks of

Submitted by Allegory on Thu, 09/13/2012 - 22:09.

is Ron Paul himself?

Maybe Tom is still protecting Dr. Paul. Who knows?

I find it hard to believe that Benton was acting on his own, as a rogue operator, independent of Dr. Paul's knowledge. We still haven't gotten the full story.

Listen to Adam's analysis. He is clearly plugged in, and as I said, willing to face up to the facts that many here are still not ready to. They'll throw Jesse under the bus, but not Dr. Paul. Dr. Paul may be throwing Jesse under the bus to protect himself.

I don't know - I'm just listening and thinking without being afraid of where it takes me, something many here seem unwilling to do. There is a line in their minds that cannot be crossed. That line will forever protect Dr. Paul as an innocent saint.

Yeah, I hate to say it, but I wonder... I mean Ron Paul didn't just fall off a turnip truck. He must have known his campaign was being controlled demolished from the inside. Maybe he was threatened, or further back, a deal was made that they would allow Rand to get elected if Rand changed his tune a bit and if RP would promise not to go too far with his 2012 campaign. These are things we will likely never know.

For all politicians.

"Maybe he was threatened."

Submitted by Allegory on Thu, 09/13/2012 - 22:42.

We've heard this a million times. There is no evidence of it.

Maybe he just didn't want to be president. That seems much more likely. Blood is thicker than water. Whether Ron agrees with his son's politics or not, he'll put his son's future before yours or mine, guaranteed.

"There is no evidence of it"

Submitted by Musicians and H... on Fri, 09/14/2012 - 02:58.

There sure is evidence that things took turns for the worse after that breakfast with Bernanke. And, we've heard it a million times because it's quite plausible.

Anyway, I said "maybe." I don't know and neither do YOU.

"Maybe he just didn't want to be president. That seems much more likely."

If that's the case, then we've really been punked by RP himself.

People will vote for this, but they're afraid to bump it

So I will. Bump.

Adam was right about Jesse, and he's right in this video.

not afraid. He makes good points and I appreciate him coming out with it. I am waiting for his next positive video because that is when he will really shine.
