YouTube of Tucker hit piece

[Naraku]

I didn't see it but it sounds like this guy said some kooky stuff. I think the best way to address this is YouTube it and edit to where he says nothing but the kooky stuff.

You know: Do you have any proof Ron Paul said this? No, I haven't seen that and "Ron Paul speaks in code," because that just makes it sound like he's pulling it all out of his ass.

Basically make him look like a kook trying to smear Ron Paul with completely baseless allegations. Counter it with quotes directly attributable to Ron Paul about Martin Luther King Junior and his use of civil disobedience and how the solution to racism is liberty. Actual video of him saying things like that would be perfect.

Make this attack look like the fraud it is.

no youtube!

I disagree. if it was that obvious that he was a kook the best thing we can do is ignore it until someone else brings it up.
something always sticks, even if you disprove it.

allegations of racism on tucker. I haven't seen it, and I don't want to see it on youtube for a day or two until it's old news!

If there's not a response to this it will spread through anti-Paul sources and into the mainstream. There has to be a response prepared something in the manner of discrediting the guy, discrediting the source, and then showing what Ron Paul truly stands for.

Do not youtube.

 

[literatim]

Naraku, you do realize these threads are being moved out of Grassroots for a reason? You've been on this forum since October, you should know where to post this crap.

 

[Xonox]

lol, first they try to discredit Ron Paul by calling him a kook, then they get kooks to try to discredit him.

go ahead. prepare a video, research that guy, whatever.
but it should be a response, not deliberately spreading a hitpiece.

I think there is a good chance noone will pick it up besides maybe dailykos in a couple of days

It's funny how everyone wants to use the same methods as Fox (censoring) if we run into something we don't like. It's BS in my opinion.

Oh so true, I could not agree more!

The campaign needs to wake up from their proverbial coma and fight this smear claw, tooth and nail.

This is the guy.

Tucker is the gay basher and he comes out the night before NH and calls Paul a racist- He was involved in a hate crime against some gay guy in a bathroom. I've known it for a long time, others seem to be in denial but MSNBC is just as bad if not far worse than FOX.

I disagree, if the campaign stays silent on this issue then most media outlets will construe that silence as proof of guilt. If the campaign does not fight this we could be in serious trouble. they have known the baseless attacks would be coming I hope they have something prepared...

Let Paul deal with it. There's no reason we should help the interview spread across the internet.

+1. I'm not argueing against a response by the campaign.

It is imperative that the campaign respond in the most forceful way possible.

Nobody is calling for censorship. The fact is nobody watches Tucker. Why expose people to it that would have never seen it? Besides it's not our job to answer this charge for Ron Paul, people who are interested will want to hear it from him himself. Besides he has already answered this charge about the newsletter and it was disregarded by most media as a bogus charge.
