Cool! :D

[specsaregood]

Awesome, time to queue up a set of Arlo to listen to today.....

[davidkachel]

Perhaps the RP theme song should be Alice's Restaurant!?

[MayTheRonBeWithYou]

Right on! Sign him up for some concerts!

[ConstitutionGal]

Hopefully, this will impress some of the over 45 crowd ;-)

[ShowMeLiberty]

Digg it! (And I mean that in the original, offline sense as well :D)

It impresses the hell outa me.
My friends and I wore out an LP of Alice's Restaurant.

Now if we could just convince Arlo to do a little something more... he could easily influence millions of my generation!

New Lyrics:

You can do anything you want if Ron Paul is President!

[FSP-Rebel]

I thought we had a new media guy Mark Elam. Why is Benton still listed?

[JimInNY]

New Lyrics:

You can do anything you want if Ron Paul is President!

excepting Alice...

lol

[SteveMartin]

Never liked him much as a musician, but he is my NEW FAVORITE NOW!!!

[zadrock]

I've been working on my in-laws for a while. They're all hardcore dems. How hardcore? Voted for McGovern and Mondale.

anyway, here's an email I just sent to my in-laws:

"If this doesn't convert you, nothing will. :) [Link to Arlo Guthrie's endorsement]"

My father-in-law responds:
"Does it for me. I can't vote in the Republican primary, but if Paul runs for President, and Arlo still endorses him, he has my vote."

Woo-hoo!

[Neomatrix]

50 - 8 X 10 colored glossy photographs with lines and arrows on the front and a paragraph on the back describing, in detail, what took place at the scene of the crime........Ba ha ha! Go Arlo!

[pcosmar]

I don't want a pickle.
I want my Rights back.
I want Ron Paul.

[SteveMartin]

Could we get him to do an updated release with a few word changes: "Ron Paul's Restaurant"....works for me....

[SteveMartin]

Let's help Jesse out and call all the networks and see if we can get Arlo on TV talking about his endorsement!!!

WE need the 50+ crowd, and THIS COULD BE GIGANTIC!!!!

[Neomatrix]

Digg it!

[theprolific]

very cool endorsement

[SteveMartin]

This endorsement is monumental. Let's not let national blow it!!! We need to get Arlo to do something if he is willing...That is the age bracket we really need help with!

[seeker1]

Coming into Los Angeles
Bringing in a couple of ki's

Only if Ron Paul is President

Okay, so I guess that reveals something about my misspent youth :)

[SteveMartin]

Hey, isn't this a guy who also did the song, "The City of New Orleans?"

....Are you thinking what I'm thinking!!

[UnitedWeStand]

I remember that on Ron Paul's myspace page he says that Alice's Restaurant is his favorite song. This must be a very personally wonderful endorsement for him!

[Paul Revered]

I posted this on MySpace.

[SteveMartin]

DIGG IT!

[SteveMartin]

Did you all Digg it???

[OferNave]

Dugg.

[SteveMartin]

Keep digging it people!!

We need Arlo to travel with Ron!!!

[acptulsa]

The City of New Orleans wasn't written by Guthrie. Anyone heard anything about Goodman?

Of course, that's not the obvious choice for a campaign song anyway. It was Arlo's old man who wrote This Land is Your Land. How obvious a choice is that?! I dare someone to trash Arlo for singing it!

That said, Arlo has written some appropriate stuff, too.

"When you're on that last train for glory, you'll know you must have paid your fare."

Hey, Arlo, you lookin'? I saw you at Cain's Ballroom in, like, '81 and saw you and Pete in Chicago in '84. We need more than an endorsement, man--we need some volunteer action here! Help us out!

[SteveMartin]

75 diggs! let's go.....

[RTsquared]

The City of New Orleans wasn't written by Guthrie. Anyone heard anything about Goodman?

If Steve Goodman's giving endorsements these days, it's from the hereafter.

It's unfortunately ironic that Steve Goodman, the songwriter of "A Dying Cub Fan's Last Request", died just weeks before the Cubs played in the NL playoffs in 1984.

YouTube of Arlo Guthrie performing "Alice's Restaurant" with footage from the movie (over 18 mins long): http://youtube.com/watch?v=b8DtpdXZi0M

Check it out, rate it and leave a comment about Arlo endorsing RP. :D

[colecrowe]

Write a song for Ron Paul please!

[BlutStein]

Hopefully, this will impress some of the over 45 crowd ;-)

Hell, I'm 23 and I'm impressed. Arlo Guthrie is a bad ass. I've been listening to him since I was 15 or so.

[BlutStein]

Arlo totally needs to write Ron Paul's theme song. To quote ol' Wolfie "Amazing, Amazing".

[newmedia4ron]

WILLIE NELSON ENDORSEMENT?

I believe Willie is friends with Arlo Guthrie (who just endorsed Ron).

Willie said he supported Kucinich but he has dropped out since.

Its realistic that Willie Nelson could endorse Ron Paul.

But I think he might need a nudge from us.

Why care about a celebrity endorsement? Because it is free advertising.
