Out of office notice. Friends, I'm going to be away from the site Friday, Saturday & Sunday. I won't have email access, either. I have a friend looking after the site just in case things get too crazy! But for the time being, you're in charge! -- Michael Nystrom. Please buy a poster and support the site!



















This Really was a Great Interview
It's more than a little possible that Fix News' underhanded scheming will benefit Dr. Paul. Almost certainly more people in NH saw this than saw the debate! Ron Paul may pick up votes just from the people's sense of the injustice that was perpetrated on him.
I'm now a permanent Jay Leno fan!
Was a great interview
Great interview. I felt like giving Ron Paul and Jay Leno a standing ovation in my living room, after midnight, with everyone else asleep. Well I did but rather quietly.
I'm sending Jay Leno a hand-written thank you letter as well as an email, thanking him. I think we should all thank him.
holy cow... he actually got even *better*
Every time I think he's hit his stride, he comes back even stronger!
Jay Leno needs a statue. We should build him one. I'm serious. Doesn't have to be huge, but this was a *big* move and truly a monumentally important gesture. An interview this magnificent the night before the NH primary... just wow.

Back to peace, non-intervention, and respect for Constitution
I hope some people will also notice how much more inspiring Paul is when focused on the liberty message, and contrast it with the dark and negative tone when the topic is immigration. It didn't work for Tancredo, it isn't working for Hunter, and it is the weakest part of the campaign for Dr. Paul.
The good doctor hit all the themes that started the Ron Paul Revolution: he was back on message tonight. Now let's hope the campaign staff will start doing ads that get back to the peace, non-intervention, and respect for constitutional limits that built the momentum and brought in the money.
it's all in the presentation
The illegal immigration has to be talked about in a different context...that the rule of law (hence the Constitution) is essential. It's a tough nut but every country tries to secure its borders, it's a legitimate national right and it's in the constitution.
Perhaps it's too difficult to add to the plate he has to cover now. I don't know why someone doesn't simply suggest we increase our legal immigration quota from Mexico substantially, since it's a de facto thing already, and move forward with a guest worker program, one of the few things Bush had right.
BTW, Mexico is really imploding and becoming a horribly dangerous situation. Fellow biologists I know can no longer safely do their research in Northern Mexico or even inside the National Parks of the United States along the border due to violence from drug traffickers. Organ Pipe National Monument in Arizona requires waiver signatures in which the scientists must accept the possibility of being murdered to get a work permit. Can you imagine this?
Personally, it's time to come back from empire wars and deploy to the border. The drug thing is out of control in Mexico now. Nothing to do with workers looking for jobs.
Thanks again for posting!
Thanks again for posting! Excellent interview!
Leno is a CLASS ACT
I was lucky enough to be at the taping and was blown away.
Ron Paul gave one of the best interviews of his life, and we have Leno to thank for it. He treated Dr. Paul with great respect and decency.
Jay must have worked some magic to get Dr. Paul on right before New Hampshire. Some people were saying that Leno wasn't too thrilled to have huckabee on his show last week (his first since the strike), so this might have been a bit of payback.
I think Leno really gets it. I wouldn't be surprised if he's a supporter.
And if he's not that's even more amazing... because he really did it for the r3volution tonight.

The Tonight Show with Jay Leno
3000 W. Alameda Ave.
Burbank, CA 91523
ps. the writers were cool. a lot of them are ron paul supporters!!
After the show, we were standing outside the studio when Dr. Paul's car pulled to the side of the road and he got out to say hi. several writers came over to say they like him too!
I just sent
Jay some sugar.

For every
anti paul propogandist, there are media people who feel obligated be the other voice. It's very nice to hear someone have a normal conversation instead of constant interrogation. Jay Leno and Ron Paul were a real joy to watch.
Leno Bump
There is no doubt about it. Ron Paul will get the Leno bump tomorrow in NH. Jay Leno is absolutely incredible. Asking Ron Paul to appear a second time on his show because of how Fox screwed him is to be commended. He said what Ron wouldn't " don't you just want to kick someones ass". Ron just smiled. He was brilliant. The crowd cheered. The people are begining to understand the predicament they are in. They are also beginning to understand the teacher. We should all follow his lead. Dedicate ourselves to the Constitution. Continue to educate others on the advantages of following it. And keep spreading the word. Support our troops! Elect Ron Paul.
freeatlast2008.com Why aren't we supporting it?
It is Lyman's next bomb for 1/21.
Support your right to be here and speak your mind. The RPR is more than just a movement, it is a philosophy.
It's been pointed out
that doing a fundraiser in honor of MLK without the expressed consent of the King family might be unwise - I agree.
Thanks for posting. Can you
Thanks for posting. Can you put up the second part? The Leno Show is not being shown in the San Francisco Bay Area. Can you believe it? I was going to stay up late tonight to watch it. :-(
WOW
Off the charts incredible. Ron had to tone it down some and almost "dumb" down the message a little but it was spot on a perfect performance. Awesome!
Amazing....Amazing!!
Fantastic interview! Jay Leno have a 5-6 million crowd and the show is aired abroad as well.
Gift?
Isn't it overdoing it? What kind of gift?

J/K
Maybe a nice little toy car?
Who knows? Point is that an email doesn't suffice. I sent an email regardless, but I will do a little something extra. There was no "are you going to run as a 3rd party?" or "you can't win" nonsense. Jay was a class act. he saw an injustice being done by not only Fox News, but the media in general and he called Ron up booked in on the show the day before the next big primary. We've been burned by 20/20 and Larry King before and completely ignored by Fox. Let's show if you take care of us, we will show our appreciation.
Just be sure that ...
It's Made in the U.S.A. :-)
above comment meant as a reply to class act
.
Loved Jay's comments at the BEGINNING of the show!
Just after Jay came back from his first commercial break, he explained "why" he had Ron Paul on and I was bordering on a Glenn Beck/french kiss moment (lol). Jay, you had me at "Hello, Ron Paul!"
This took not only some MAJOR brass balls, but also integrity of stellar proportions given his colleagues in the media.
Jay, our collective hat is off to you, OUR friend!
Taping of show
is around 3 pm PST. That is why transcript is available so soon.
loved it, thanks Jay
was awesome. both Ron and Jay, excellent.
Jay for VP?
Why would you want Jay to take such a massive hit?
He'd lose a couple million bucks a year if he gave up show business for the vice presidency.
-jcr
who mentioned
who mentioned giving up the show? hahah
he could have his boss Ron show up every week ;)
Class Act
I replied to one of the posts before expressing a cautious optimism for a 2nd interview, but Jay Leno came through with flying colors. I am truly impressed. Some hooligans throwing snowballs may have shown a bad light on the movement, but I and hopefully others will show the media we appreciate who our friends are. Larry King was a phony, Jay is the real deal.I will do more then send an email, I will send a gift showing him how much I appreciate him.
Spectacular!
Dr. Paul looked very confident and seemed to be really enjoying himself. And what BOLD statements from Jay! Wow!
So, so glad the the strikers were welcoming of Dr. Paul!! Can't underscore that enough. I took some heat earlier, but that stuff matters more than people realize. Union folk do watch. Dr. Paul spoke well of Dennis Kucinich and he is pro-union.
Huck got called scab and had negative articles about his crossing the picket line. Think there will be articles talking about the CHEERING strikers taking RP signs and stickers, as "mr.patrickoconnor" describes further down?
Any pictures or videos of the strikers cheering and taking the RP signs and stickers?
Video!

where's part II? video anyone?
frustrating; i'm in CA so i have to wait-but i dont stay up that late...

Transcript
Read the transcript and it was great. Good for Jay Leno for seeing through the lack of news reporting on the Fox snub and Dr. Paul shined as the Statesman he is.
Great Interview Ron Paul...
Clear, and to the point. With a few good jabs, to boot. Glad to see the gloves coming off in a fair and debating way. This is what is needed.
gloves off
finaly, just enough.
I'm hoping for the momnet in the F#X debate on the 10th when someone laughs ad DR. Paul stops and says, "Are you running for president of the United States or president of the sophomore class..."
But the Leno stuff was pretty flipp'n close...
video link?
i can't stand it, please provide a link...
Kids, ya-know. someone has to put them to bed.
GloZell
GloZell, the perpetual Leno show attendeed wrote some nice things about Jay not having any A list people so he got Ron on because he knew it would make for a great show! Also he was truly upset about the FOX incident.. The audience gets to hear Jay speak before the show, called the warm up...
Is it just me or...
is it striking that a stand-up comic, turned late-night comedy host, has a greater understanding of the media's duty to provide people with information so that the people can make up their own minds than most professional news organizations these days. Kudos for Jay in taking this step. A good interview.
Home Run!
Was that not perfection? With the veterans ad right in the middle?
Jay is GREAT. Even if you don't like his jokes, when he interviews politicians he's super. Ron was able to get his message out about all his positions, and without bashing anyone, explained that the others don't follow the party platform!
I am proud to say Jay grew up in my hometown area of Andover, Mass!

Snarky, bad photo but talks about Leno:

Talks about Huck too, but our guy has so much more substance:

And Paul got NO votes in Dixeville Notch but 25% in Hart's Location!
These two places that have about 15 residents each, have already voted.

Ron Paul Rocks!
Ron was awesome and Jay is a doll for having him.
Bad things happen to good people and everything has a purpose.
video?
you tube video??
Great Interview!!
Leno gave Paul a two part segment on the show and Ron did what he does best - TOLD THE TRUTH! Lets pray as the good folks in NH start going to the polls they have awaken to the Ron Paul Revolution!!
PS
Did anyone catch Anderson Cooper live on CNN just before Jay Leno aired? I hope someone taped it because Cooper was literally surrounded by Ron Paul supporters at the town hall durring his entire live broadcast. It was amazing!!
Whatever happens today,
Jay,
You were beautiful for giving our man this golden spot in time.
Ron,
You were at your best, friendly, making common sense, smart, tough, and you answered Jay's questions superbly.
Anderson Cooper
Didn't tape it. But just saw it, PST. Haven't seen Leno yet. Hope it makes me laugh 1/2 as much. Ron Paul signs behind Cooper every direction the cameras turned. Amazing & very funny.
It's just like Rudy says, Ron Paul supporters are "everywhere".
Here: http://www.youtube.com/wa...
And here too: http://www.youtube.com/wa...
Yes we saw Cooper
I saw that, and each time they came back from an ad, Cooper remarked that they were everywhere! I thought, it's 11 PM and they are still out there in the cold. They were quiet and noisy at the right times, and one even had a great sign that the camera stayed on for a long time that said, Ron Paul on Jay Leno TONIGHT!
yes sir/mamm
it was amazing. i wanted to scream "look behind u as**oles!" seriouisly.........game over. Paul wins. :D
Ron hit home run!
Ron Paul's best performance yet! Just finished watching it, it was great!
Anybody have
an e-mail address to send Jay a thankyou note?
