Great video of a great speech
Loved it
THANK YOU!!!
This was an AWESOME posting!!!
First of all the sight and sound of that harmony coming through of "The Star Spangled Banner" was truly awe inspiring. I can only imagine what it was like in person!
Second, the singer that introduced Ron...HOLY WOW! Someone needs to put that guy on staff and have him introducing Ron EVERYWHERE!!! His story was absolutely incredible! What a great "testimony" (to use a church term...lol). That'll play down here in Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, Florida and wherever "Bubba" may reside...lol.
Ron's campaign is truly the most diverse I've seen, attracting young and old, single and married, religious and non-religious, gay and straight, white and people of color, and we all know the spectrum of Dems, Pubs, Libs and Indies he attracts. Still, it was nice to see and hear a "good ole boy" type do such a great intro! That's one I can send to a number of my buddies that will really "speak" to them-- especially from a Veteran!
THANK YOU again for posting this!!!
The excitement was electrifying!
I attended the truly amazing rally today with a full capacity crowd exploding with energy!
Tennessee is Ron Paul country!
Was there today
Good rally. Honestly, I had never been to a political rally before in my life (32 yo).
It's really amazing that Ron Paul has the stamina to travel around so much, rile up a crowd of over 1000 people and then head off to do an interview and then another rally, etc.
Anyway, it was cool. What was interesting to me was that there was a variety of people there. There were a lot of "regular" folks along with dreadlocked hippies and a guy with a confederate hat and a guy dressed as a minute man with a revolutionary flag. Like he says, all kinds of people like freedom.
Growing growing growing
Hey. Thanks for posting these bits.
I'm from Melbourne, Australia and can only get media stuff on-line. I'm really excited about Ron and am telling everyone i know about him, including some friends and their families in the US.
To all his volunteers, keep going strong. This is an amazing thing to watch from afar. I wish i could be there. I guess i am in a sense.
Wish you were here too!
But you're doing a great job getting the message out, he needs to be heard all around the world. Thanks so much!

Do you KNOW how to become a Delegate for Ron Paul? -- Do it!
You can help
.
I bet there are quite a few Yanks running around Melboure, Sydney and other places in Oz. You could start your own Meet-Up group there! Or at least do a little campaigning for Ron Paul.
I am sure there are many big U.S. companies over there and would love to hear all about Ron Paul.
You can also visit:

and vote for Ron.
Great to hear from you. Come back often!
I'm getting into it
Thanks for your message. I just joined the Melbourne Meetup group last night. We have a meetup organised at the hard rock cafe. a bit of a hangout for americans in melbourne. we will see if we can convert some.
thanks for your suggestions. I will be back often. Usually about 3 times a day at the moment. It's a very exciting time. I sincerely wish you all luck in the next couple of months to get enough people registered to vote. You should be doing everything you can to make this happen. Every sacrifice you can make now will be rewarded with the freedom you have always deserved.
Go forth you crazy ron paulians!!! You inspire me! Good luck!
Great support, lousy television
.
Maybe it's me, but I think the Nashville media outlets have temps running things. In the first piece, the have a bright light behind Ron, but nothing on his face. Don't these guys have a studio, or some other place - like the parking lot - where we could at least see Ron's face? Guess not!
The 2nd clip--the nice guy from Jackson, Mississippi--had to put up with questions from a reporter who does not LISTEN to him. She asked him a question. He gave a nice reply. Then she asked him essentially the same question again. Good thing this guy from Mississippi was not John Cleese of Monty Python. Cleese would have bellowed, "Are you bloody stupid? I just answered that!"
I have no doubt they meant well, but man, they need to all take TV production 101 and pass it.
Still, the pieces were positive and I hope the good folks of Tennessee can get the message.

I was there!
And yes the people of Tennessee are getting the message. Much work here in TN is yet to be done but the place was rocking, It was almost if not totally packed. Ron Paul is the man! When the genie gets fully out of the bottle and people hear his ideas and messages they will flock by the thousands and millions. Watch you will see. People will come by the droves. Freedom and liberty has away of doing that and Ron Paul is their spokesperson.
fun rally
Having been to a number of events, this was a really good rally. Kari and I came down from Pittsburgh (if you bought a Constitution shirt there, that's me), and were impressed by how many people attended that event, as well as the later one in Cincinnati. Great job!
