Ron Paul "Take Back Your Country"

There are alot of Ron Paul support videos out there. This is my attempt at making one.

*Warning: Contains some graphic footage*

(available in 1080p)

That, sir, is a great video. I've thumbed it up, and posted it to my FB (only thing i use it for, heh).

Thank you, sir. I tried to keep it interesting.

Wow that is a legit video. Better than most ads actually.

even if you have to stoop to treason !

Where was the treason please?

OP,
I did not care for the video as I could not get past the foreboding background music, it really did dominate the video.
This is a trick used by many that I see right through, the audio is used to get an emotional response.
I prefer to use facts and logic.

What a joke!

Ron Paul is the TRUEST AMERICAN that ever ran. The ONLY one who isnt a TRAITOR to this country.

Have fun voting for your typical American-screwing, TRAITOR, sell-out typical bum politicians.

PUPPETS who all lead America down the SAME destructive path as always.

People who buy into the typical puppet politicians and their constant LIES and broken promises are part of the PROBLEM in this country.

Thank you. I think sometimes the official videos lack the emotional element.

There are more than enough facts and logic available to you on ATS, or discovered by searching for them. And, by the way, what facts and logic are missing? You have empirical video evidence.

I liked the video. I think that the message will always be clear, thanks for keeping it alive!

I understand this and I am a supporter of Dr. Paul.
I just do not care for ads for things i like or dislike that attempt to get an emotional response from me.
While emotions are a good thing, they generally lead to kneejerk responses.
I try to keep my logic and emotional sides separate.
Make the same video but put the Yakkety Sax soundtrack behind it and I'll give that a thumbs up.

(Edit)
I would still like to know where the treason is that syrinx high priest referred to.
If said poster cannot back up a claim and soon, we will have to assume that said poster is a bot or paid disinformation.

I've never hearad of Yakkety Sax, but if that's a request, I could do it.

The problem is the video has to be timed with the music.

In any case I was attempting to evoke an emotional response. One that would make people care about what's going on.

Don't worry about the shills, your video was very well done! I will share my strategy with you and all to revel in the fact that when payday comes for the shills, their masters are broke! Can't wait to see the look on their faces when we get back to the way things should be and they want to join our side, only to be shipped off with their former masters!

It was a good video, but you could have done without the Marine throwing the puppy off the cliff. Allow me to give you a little background. This guy was from my old unit, so I dug into the story a bit.

Yes, he committed a despicable act - *&^%birds often do. Afterwards, he was also ostracized by his Brother Marines, who found what he did outrageous and evil; and then he was Dishonorably Discharged. He will forever bear the shame for what he did every time he goes to look for work, buy a car, or a house. He will never be welcome at any reunions, and no one will speak his name.

Please don't take the actions of one disturbed individual and lay them at the feet of all of our men and women in uniform, who are overwhelmingly performing their duty with honor.

Thanks for the input, OldCorp, I respect your judgement.

My point wasn't to make marines look bad, rather show the horrors of war, and what can happen when leaders send us to other countries for ficticious reasons. If you watch further in the video you'll notice the "bring the troops home" paints them in a heroic light, since most of them are trying to do the right thing.

The puppy thing should have been shown.
It bothers me that it was a US Marine more than any other branch, as the Marines should be out front and the strongest of our forces, our flagship if you will.
The blame does not sit with just this Marine but with the whole of the armed services.
I do not try to lessen the incident but just that it got bad enough and WE allowed ourselves to get this far away from right.
At first I condemed this Marine but, I realize that this human most probably would have never committed this act in his hometown.
My opinion of our soldiers, airmen, semen.... err seamen has not been stained, just my opinion of what should be and will be again, the greatest country on the face of the Earth.
Every time we fall, we learn to get back up.

Man.. That was fantastic. I wish it were longer. Much longer. Your direction/production was truly high-class. You should make another. And then another. I mean it though, and I'm pretty critical of "viewer-made" Ron Paul videos
