Anyone interested in either Goldwater or Dr Paul would enjoy reading Senator Goldwater's Conscience of a Conservative from 1960. It is the definition of a libertarian conservative. Many of his views and cautions have come true today.
Incidently to prove Dr Paul correct about inflation the book has a retail of $1.
"we've had you on because we thought somebody who supported Ron Paul would like to get out his message rather than debate the Republican forum. Is that something you would like to do?"
I'm so glad Barry Goldwater is campaigning for Ron Paul. It's nice to hear a strong conservative libertarian voice out there smacking down the media when their out of line. Thank you Mr Goldwater!
That is a huge mistake. To attack Goldwater is not smart. The older folks love this family. When all the older folks were young Barry was their Ron Paul. This will prove costly to these rabid dogs on fox news. That will cost them veiwers. They have no respect for anyone eccept them selves.
...and if you can't say anything nice don't say anything at all. Megan Kendall is just eyecandy, no insult. Truth. She looks good in a dress. Go Barry...
YOU KNOW IN YOUR HEART THAT HE IS RIGHT!
We should do anything we can to keep Barry Goldwater Jr. on the campaign trail. He makes up for a lot of Ron Paul's shortcomings (in the eyes of your average voter). He's a tough voice against the opposition (media, other candidates). Lets contact him and try to fund his presence on the trail as much as possible. Barry Goldwater Jr. makes Chuck Norris look like a child.
I find it comical that the neocons seem to have decided that the Goldwater legacy is no longer relevant. If Barry, Jr. had endorsed one of them, however, they'd be flaunting it as proof of their lineage to Reagan. Slimy, disingenuous bastards.
Who is that stupid arrogant bitch that was interviewing him? I say we fill her box with Revolution email. I agree... she makes you want to puke. What a disgrace she is. If she talked to Ron Paul like that they would have more than just a boycott. I don't condone hitting women... but I'd sure find someone that does.
well, in general, it was a good interview. Barry showed his age and might be loosing it a little. I still respect him even if he did get some of his facts mixed up.
What was the sound when he said his dad was beat by a write in candidate, but went on to win the party nomination.................... go ahead, listen again.
I can't even stand the stupid sound FX accompanying the overly flashy graphics on most national TV networks these days. Heck, the sound FX Fox put in - I don't even use those in my goofiest of my parody videos! And the constant crawls on the bottom of the screen...all the networks do this kind of thing. They're definitely trying to screw with our brains and scramble multiple messages at us and distract us from real content.
If it weren't for the few good straight TV channels and programs out there - Discovery Channel, Learning Channel, History Channel, etc...even that government channel PBS - I'd say kill your television. Viva la internet and other new media!
By the way, what a bimbo on that Fox network - arrogant little...I better stop now.
Fox - what a JOKE for a news channel. From this point on I'm going to SUBSTANTIALLY lower my opinion of the intelligence of anyone who appears to be drinking koolaid from "The National Enquirer of the Airwaves".
I remind everyone that Murdoch ONLY became a US citizen in order to qualify, under US law, buy up our media and turn it into THIS sort of a farce. The man clearly doesn't hold with ANY of the philosophical premises upon which our country was founded .. and those who continue to gravitate this channel - or subscribe to any of Murdoch's other extensive media holdings such as the Wall Street Journal - really ought to question their own common sense. If you want to make yourself stupid, why not just shoot yourself in the head and get it over with?
Does anyone have a comprehensive listing of Murdoch's media holdings and cross holdings? I think it should be PERMANENTLY linked here so we can boycott ALL media outlets strangled by Murdoch.
If we are to exercise the power of boycott, it should be at the level of MURDOCH and his "News Corp" or other holdings. Do you subscribe to WSJ? Drop it. Do you have influence on others who subscribe to WSJ or other Murdoch droppings? Get them to drop their subscriptions and find different channels.
CNN is being damaged by Murdoch's push to conflate news with glitzy trash. CNN was and appears to still be a real news station. Support it. Ban Fox - and ALL Murdoch tainted media - from your lives.
Hailing from the Goldwater state, I can appreciate Barry, Jr. criticism of Fox News. Hopefully they will follow through with their committment to have Ron Paul on the program Goldwater and the newscaster agreed on.
FWIW, I was a Paul critic and opponent and have somewhat changed my mind about him. I have submitted my op-ed expressing my change of heart to the webmaster.
"shows up with some funny ideas", "sounds more like a democrat"... what an airhead ! I guess she only started paying attention to politics midway through the Bush administration. Did she take a civics class to get her degree in journalism? Does she even have a degree? Has she ever read the constitution? America is in really bad shape when people like that are allowed to conduct political interviews on national TV.
Barry Goldwater Jr. was great ! I really like that guy.
Wonder how she tied to get an objective view when she was presecuting. Probably did not made a success of it and switched to Fox. Now that's regress! :-) It seems like some individual with Fox seem to be a bit more positive, like Brian K and Greta van S, who suggested Dr. Paul should have been invited. Perhaps we should stress this a bit and show inner conflict of philosophies with Fox, which will weaken them further and in this way we are being positive (not only opposing their oh so clear bias and narrowness). Brian K. has a show with judge Andrew P. Napolitano, who endorsed Ron Paul on a youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/wa...
Dr. Murray Sabrin - USA Today columnist - who also supports Dr. Ron Paul, favours Napolitano as a dream-team vice president pair for Dr. Paul and it makes fully sense. He has a lot of charisma also. Is it not possible to get Napolitano to be somehow involved with the campaign?? http://www.usadaily.com/a...
We need professionals - to a certain extent - for the marketing and perception-building, but the local work by the most is so important and considered. ALL voters in the US that are Ron paul supporters (meet-up group) should be contacted and asked to contacts ALL their contacts in email, friends, family, friends of friends, skype contacts, instant messnger contacts etc. etc. in the state where an election is going to be held between now and super dooper Tuesday (5 February) and encourage to vote for Ron Paul, and help, not only with sticker, but mainly with house-to house canvassing, but also - for those who this style is too aggresive and get tired of this - informally (softly) when you say play sports together, or drink coffee,at work etc. In short: missionaries for Ron Paul and his and our philosophy everywhere.
Barry Goldwater was excellent and spot on in his response. It would be a very good idea to get him to do some future interviews as well with certain stations. Hope he supports Dr. Paul also in other states. He just give a different perspective and with his brand-name such an appeal to traditional Republicans (Goldwater - Reagan), also to show the Ron Paul movement is more than a group of young students, as the media try to portray. Hoping to see much more of Barry Goldwater as well, he will be such a wonderful support. Also: the media try to give a negative conenction with Dr. Paul and they know once they have a negative (false) perception of a person created, it is so difficult for the average, non-thinking voter to be positive again, or to portray supporters as rowdy extremists. Also in this context Barry Goldwater is not only a new face and own way of saying (with an old brand name), but also a forceful positive image and perception creator. Those that really do the trouble of studying Ron Paul again, will think the world of him, as all of us. Enthusiasm is contageous. Also very good that Goldwater described (the neocons) as more extreme to the right wing fringe and Ron Paul as moderate, which is 100% the case, and against the extremist image Fax tries to portray. They will get unmasked as being the extremists that they are with their support of the use of violence as a way and means for political change. (Watched McCain on Meet the Press and he said he would still have supported the Iraq invasion, even if he knew there were no weapons of mass destruction!).
Can congressman Jones of NC also play an active role? (His father was moderate Democratic, while he later joined the Republicans, initially more rightwing end of Republican and now more moderate Republican. He could have some influence under Democrats also, as both he and his father were Democrats in the past).
Fox is a joke. I haven't watched FNC in ages. They are either spinning and using other nefarious means to smear Paul, or they are the biggest simpletons ever associtated with broadcast news journalism. I believe it's a combination of both.
Goldwater was quite the gentleman in that he didn't rip the Ms. America wannabe type empty-headed 'journalist' apart.
"I'm Barry Goldwater Jr. and I just put foot to ass in the name of Ron Paul."
It is good to see members of our government who's spines still stand erect and tall. This whole idea of the "frontrunner" candidates has proven false time and time again. Look at the poll numbers of the folks who win the nod. They're NEVER expected to bowl over the competition like they do in the end.
Ballot votes, donors, volunteers. Those are the polls we trust.
IT would have been nice to for him to say...
My Father Barry Goldwater who RAN WITH RONALD REAGAN for President!
Thus Tying Ron Paul to Ronald Reagan...
I would have
said, to the question... " Up against FAUX news, I will take anything I can get " Carry on.

What would really serve them right...
Would be if Fox were not invited to any White House press conferences during the Ron Paul administration.
Dr. Paul's a more magnanimous person than I am, though.

Absolutely Agree with TAN regarding FOX and Murdoch
Also, anybody who has been in the military recognizes the "dumbing down" techniques being used by Murdoch (in this case on the American public).
People Wake Up! These Media outlets KNOW that Ron Paul is the beginning of their END.
Keep the pressure on, and DO NOT buy the enuendos that Paul will never be elected.
That's the kind of language they start using when they are really feeling threatened.
New Hampshire will be crucial, but it will not be the end. The People of this country are not going to give up until the bitter end.
Maybe FOX should fasten their seatbelts, it is going to be a bumpy ride!
ouch
