Bias Anti-Ron Paul video
Anyone who says it was excellent isn't paying attention. You are sucked too deep into the Ron Paul bias to see it from an outsiders perspective. The video paints Paul and the movement as the "crazy, hippy, anti establishment, going nowhere, fringe". Remember, many of Pauls ideas need long explanation. The host - list off what Paul stands for like buzz words that immediate induces a viewer who doesn't understand the reasoning behind it to go "that's crazy".
Good video, but...
He's wrong - "banning abortion" is not the way Ron Paul describes it. He is personally pro-life, but what he's saying is that the abortion issue should not be dealt with at a federal level by 8 old judges. This issue should entirely be left to the states and the Fed should have nothing to do here.
This is not such a great vid for Europeans. Less focus on abortion and guns (and less 'God') would have sounded much better for Europeans who don't know the full details about Dr Paul's Revolution.
I didn't like...
the bit about banning abortion either.
"All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."
You are correct
This video did NOT portray Dr. Paul's stance on abortion:
It should be left up to the STATES, so that your FEDERAL tax dollars don't go to fund abortions which you may be against.
What a concept!

No, she is a pastor
not a trader. She may trade in her spare time, though, I do not know.
A trader?
or a traitor?

The FiXx and they like Ron Paul a lot

Darn
Such a shame that I was so close to a fellow DPer and didn't know it 8/
I love it!
I love the international attention this is getting!
I know there was a crew from the Netherlands covering the rally and the concert from the night before.
I bet people in other countries understand us and respect us more than most people in the US.
Not wrong
Take a look at the latest figures on this website:

I'm an Australian. During this last year, Dr. Paul and his supporters, especially all you here on the Daily Paul, have given me probably the most important educational experience of my life. It's truly heartwarming to witness just how many decent and able patriots are rallying to the call.
You guys are awesome!
Outstanding
graemek, that is an AMAZING site you left. That people from around globe can see that our great country has gone astray, that the world remembers that we were the light on the hill - shining brightly the light of liberty for all the world to see, And the man who rekindled that light in each and everyone of us IS Ron Paul.
Look at this site guys. It's amazing. You can see all the votes per country. Australia, by the way, is a great liberal democracy - in the sense that's not an imperial bully. Austria loves BHO

P.S. The abortion thing was way off. Negative reporting on an otherwise balance program.
We need to build political strength and political will.
How's the freedom movement coming along down under?
Your politicians probably aren't as ambitious as ours, but you still need to watch them like a hawk.

Very little public awareness of the real issues
so it's a bit hard to wake people up, but it can be done. Our politicians aren't as ambitious as yours, true. But they're very obedient to their masters. (And I don't mean the people!)
You bet they do
Indeed, because who knows when the might of the US military will unjustly put their country in the crosshairs next. Who knows when the neo-cons or CIA will try to subvert their government. The world loves Ron Paul patriots much more than any other political group right now.
This has to happen because the more time they are in power and having their way with our wallets the more incentive it is for them to continually do it generation after generation. You know what I'm talking about. Long term it has been in their interest and they are pushing the populace harder than ever before. It's got to stop or we might actually have a real revolution. I don't think anyone wants it to come to that.
