Aaron Russo has died

[AZ Libertarian]

Aaron lives on.....

Aaron Russo lives on in the heart of every person who ever saw "America: from Freedom to Fascism". I still cry every time I see it, which is a tradition that will never end.

With all due respect to AR, this is not Ron Paul news.

I posted a thread http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=14094 in General Politics some 30 minutes before this thread was created, but you know how it is with some boards being viewed by more people than others......

actually I would say it is. Aaron was one of the first people to endorse Ron. And I would guess that his freedom to facism documentary was one of the first things where people saw Ron Paul(you know those people who don't watch CSPAN 24/7)

I just added his movie to my site http://tvmoviesblog.com/documentaries/america-freedom-to-fascism-directors-authorized-version It's the Director's cut, what's the difference between this one and the regular one?

I'm going to donate 100% of all my adsense earnings to the RP campaign, minus the costs for hosting and domain names! Not telling you to click, I've been thinking about doing this for a while. I haven't maxed out yet, so maybe this will allow me to contribute more. We can donate like $4,000+ to Dr. Paul? What's the maximum?

$2300 per person to the PCC. If you have a wife/girlfriend/husband/boyfriend/whatever, they can toss in $2300 too if you "share resources" as it were.

F2F was the first movie that showed me the man behind the curtain. It was groundbreaking and pro-humanity. Thank you Arron Russo- you are loved!

No one mentioned RP when Reagan died. RP would hold the same position that you are asserting AR does to RP (I would strongly disagree with your assertion, but I don't wish to speak ill of the dead). RP wasn't Reagan news upon Reagan's death and AR isn't Ron Paul news.

Very much a hero.

Steve Gordon, an old friend of Aaron's, talked to the family. They're talking about a memorial, but of course, nothing has been decided yet.

Steve writes:

In our last telephone conversation, Aaron told me he’d kick my butt if I didn’t do what I could to ensure Ron Paul is the next president of the United States. This was his style. While some have viewed his rough-appearing exterior in a negative manner, those of us who knew him realized what a Teddy Bear he truly is. For those who aren’t aware, Aaron has a long history with Congressman Paul.
My whiskered old cheeks haven’t seen a tear on them in quite some time, and I can’t type any more right now. I’ll relay more information as the immediate family has time to deal with the situation.
If I had to guess the epitaph Aaron would prefer, it would be this: All your freedoms, all the time!
​

The best memorial for Aaron would be to work harder for Ron Paul's election!

Amen to that! Rest in Peace Aaron, our prayers are with your family... you helped me take the final step in awakening with AFTF..

Let us all fight harder for Ron Paul in Aaron's memory~

Regardless, I'd say this bickering is retarded. Aaron Russo was a great man, and deserves to be paid tribute in the board which the majority of people see. A lot of Ron Paul supporters especially will care about this event. It's a loss that all US citizens and freedom lovers everywhere should mourn deeply.

Aaron will go down in history as a forefather of the second American Revolution .
I recently passed out over 50 AFTF DVD's at an OZZ Fest in MA while pushing Dr. Paul. Love you man.

I'm a little skeptical about Aaron Russo's death. The National Libertarian Party makes no mention of his death on their website.

Aaron doesn't hold office in the LP. This information is legit. Gary's confirmed it.

Aaron Russo ran for President for the Libertarian Party, it would be on the website headlines.

 

[Electric Church]

An American Hero..when all is said and done he'll be known as a true warrior for liberty

 

[tnvoter]

He'll be remembered as a hero in the Patriot movement.

LPNC also isn't a 24/7 operation. I dunno if they'll post it, to be honest.

Doesn't matter though, I know this is legit.
