[VIDEO] RNC Tribute to Ron Paul

[VanBummel]

See how good you could have had it, GOP?

And don't forget about SA's and my electoral college strategy!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

I SINCERELY hope that you are not hinting at a rogue vote for Ron Paul. That kind of choice will lead to the end of the Electoral College. It'd give opponents to it one more reason why to end this last republican system.

PLEASE don't vote rogue.

I actually got teary eyed over that. The pit of despair over how fucked we are with Obamney.

Couldn't have said it better myself. They threw away a great man. Its our job to fight on.

 

[TrishW]

too little.... too late

I did like it. Who couldn't make a good video, when you have a man like Ron Paul as your subject. Ron Paul can inspire without bashing his opponents. He is truth, wisdom, and a lifetime of hard work.

There is NO WAY Romney gets the inheritance. The millions are not his to control. We are free.

 

[Jerkface]

This is very reminiscent to an abusive husband beating his wife out of the house then begging her to come back home.

Sorry GOP.

I'm sure a video-savvy RP supporter will doctor it up and release an "extended" version.

I like that idea!

However, as many of us expected, what is missing from this video tribute is only the main theme Dr. Paul has repeatedly, speech by speech, every time he opens his mouth, driven home to anyone who would listen (and ask his multitude of young followers whether they appreciate and listen): The antiwar theme of peace and prosperity. The principle of non-interventionism. The golden rule.

Anyone who does not understand that Ron Paul above all stands for peace and prosperity through the avoidance of an immoral, destructive, and impoverishing interventionist foreign policy honestly has no clue about the very core of this man.

He has been a voice crying in the wilderness for decades on this one precise point. And that the RNC chooses to ignore the core of this man's beliefs is but a condensation of the lies and mendacity we have seen on their part over this entire campaign, culminating in the blatant theft that would make a third world dictator blush -- or flush with envy. We do not need the RNC whitewash of Ron Paul. We know and will continue to follow the REAL Ron Paul! Our hero.

It just makes me sad to watch it. What could have been... What should be!

he's making fun of people wanting to write Ron in, and caring about Ron more than his projects.

There's no such thing as a bound elector. The national vote in November is just a beauty contest.

Nothing like a laugh after watching that ... it only made me sad, very, very sad to see this from them after the fact, after the deplorable treatment of him.

Thanks

PS - I still despise the GOP and will NEVER forget all their dirty tricks at all our country's state conventions and in Tampa.

Also, a final note, Ron Paul accomplished a LOT, but he couldn't save them from themselves.

THIS ^

they left out a few main of his points, but in general the quality was good.
i think no end the fed, no ndaa, no foreign policy quotes.

So this is AWKWARD... RNC blocks Ron Paul from getting his name into nomination, cheats his delegates out of their duly elected positions, changes the RNC rules so that no one like him could ever be nominated again... BUT... here is our awesome tribute video to the man who "in 22 years of Congress... never waivered, never backed down.. and changed the conversation"... IS THAT WHY THE RNC CHANGED THE RULES?

 

[Boss]

435 Ron Pauls in Congress !!!!!!!

 

[DGambler]

That made me sick coming from them.

 

[pcosmar]

That was thoroughly insulting.
Sure there were some nice things said,, but in light of the "convention",,,
Hollow words are hollow.

I expect nothing but more of the same,,with some empty rhetoric thrown in.

 

[moraha]

We all know damn well that they only did this tribute to try to win some of the Ron Paul people...(which doesn't make sense anymore after what they did)

 

[affa]

Prepare for the worst. I've said it before, but I'd put money on it that the media and GOP will treat Ron Paul like a hero, visionary, and idol once he's gone. He'll be spoke of in reverent tones like Reagan is, and they'll act like they always supported him.

Prepare for it. It'll make us all sick.

PS -- that video is great. i hope at least 1 Romney delegate watched that and saw Ron Paul for the first time, starts doing research, and realizes what a mistake he/she made in 2012.

I'm going to shoot something the first time a media talking head appoints the tittle of "Ron Paul Republican" to an establishment neo-con.

They used his popularity to promote spending cuts ONLY where they want to cut ... not touching military, obviously. Ron wanted to protect those that big government made dependent on them until we can transition. I'm sure Romney will go after that money right away so he can use the very last crumb of the pie for his cronies. It wasn't really to pay tribute, or even appeasement, but again, just twisting his message for their own greed and using him...that's probably why he didn't stick around for it...well, part of the reason.
