I would pass out if Beck said Ron Paul, Rand Paul, and Peter Schiff where out new founding fathers. Giving all 3 of them an endorsement--I'm not holding my breath.

I think it would do Glenn a lot of good if he would actually openly admit Ron Paul was the best presidential candidate.

He's calling for Revolutionary leaders like Thomas Jefferson to stand up. Very interesting.
Lets hope he endorses Rand and Schiff if he decides to run.

I still can't hardly stand to watch him. If he has someone like Schiff or Paul on the show, I just skip ahead in the video.
Still, his current persona/gimmick may have its use...

He has become one of the leading speakers for discontented conservatives and thankfully has demonstrated more and more libertarian positions. He needs to endorse Rand Paul and Peter Schiff in the near future. It is time he takes this new wielding power to the next level- actual change in the House.

WAKE UP BECK! He makes it amazingly difficult to defend him when he refuses to support the guys that will bring the real change that he constantly talks about. Palin, Palin, Palin is all I hear. :mad:
That will never happen.
Well maybe not before the next money bomb, but perhaps soon.?.? at some point.?.? :o

Beck is an intellectual prostitute.
He is not good for liberty and frankly no longer is the teaparty movement.
Beck has provided these people with the bare minumum to be pissed off about and guess what.. that's exactly what they are pissed off about. Their movement is not grassroots. Their movement is phony and bullshit. His cointel strategies are glaringly obvious. Man once feared fire. Once he learned to use it.. it became a great tool. The liberty movement started off as a bunch of small brushfires on the verge of erupting across the nation.. it is now a lighter in Beck's hand. Remember Beck signed a 50 million dollar contract with FNC... FNC is NOT for liberty.
Study castro, study che... the marxists are fantastic revolutionaries.
Our politicians must arise from our movement. We will never win by hoping Sarah Palin or Glenn Beck becomes a libertarian. Because when they do.. it'll be for ratings.
**I was witness to the DC march and trust me... these people don't have a friggen clue.
Is there really an ad for Republican Campaigns on here and yet none for libertarians. this election cycle is our chance to get libertarians in office. ffs run as a libertarian especially if you have a democrat incumbent. we need to concentrate on removing the majority from both the dems and the repubs... not giving it to the republicans.

The entire point of going to the Tea Parties is to help educate these people. They can tell there is a is problem, but their leaders say "It's the Democrats!" and they don't know any better.
Reach out to these people!

That, I agree with. We only have so much time to expose the neocon elites to the conservative base. And that should be a huge priority if this movement is going anywhere.

Why do you think I spent my time and resources to go to Washington this past weekend?
the shit is piled 10ft. high and they refuse to dig out of it. it's overwhelming to them.
ACORN's corruption has them shitting their pants. You think they can handle the entire truth? Maybe once a few generations who still cling to the good ol post WW2 era have passed on... we can get serious about this.

It depends what you define as power. I see Beck as I do someone like Limbaugh. They preach to the "converted" and make them feel better, but they don't actually change peoples view point. The people that listen to Beck or Limbaugh already agree with their message.
I liken it a lot to a Minister. My mom has been going to Church every Sunday for 50 odd years. And she nods along and "amens" to everything the Minister says. But all he says is how good God is and how good triumphs over evil etc. He's not convincing her of anything she doesn't know.

All that Beck, Hannity, O'Reilly, Olbermann and a host of other "commentators" do is politicise information, and keep the culture war raging. It's divide and conquer, in a very obvious fashion. The information they might put out there might be 100% accurate, but since it's them saying it, immediately the "political opposition" switches off to it, or denies and rejects it simply on principle.

Honestly, I'm just waiting for Beck to endorse Gingrich as "the new Jefferson".
I'd say that Ron Paul is the closest thing we have to Jefferson today, and has been on Beck's show a number of times, to be met with ridicule. Beck doesn't care about the Founding Fathers, he's just throwing that out there to reel in the constitutionalists.

You folks are obviously not watching Glenn Beck. He recently had Rand Paul on his show and told him, You are the kind of politician I could support...AND on Saturday Beck said on his show he wasn't having any more politicians on because he doesn't know who to trust..but he had Rand Paul on. When will you get over your hate for Glenn Beck? It is counter productive to the movement. If Beck fans come to this forum, you are going to run them off, you will run them away from libertarianism and Ron Paul. I listen to his show nearly every day and I rarely hear him mention Sarah Palin. THat is very disingenuous..(a liberal word I hate but will use when appropriate). TOnes

Guys like Jefferson, Franklin, Adams, et. al. were learned thinkers - not what you get today, with Dr. Paul getting close. The founders were not only thinkers, but doers as well - some of their inventions still in use today (Franklin with mail sorting device, lighting rod, bifocals - Jefferson with duplicate signature machine).
The Continental Congress may have been one of the world's foremost collection of minds in a single place that makes DC look like the circus it is.

The Real Newt Gingrich
The Real Newt Gingrich on Vimeo (http://www.vimeo.com/6445068)
Newt Gingrich is often viewed as a conservative politician. This video is a speech John McManus, president of the John Birch society, gave which exposes the REAL Newt Gingrich by examining his track record and showing his true motivations.

Thomas Jefferson was an uber-interventionist, just look at his efforts to co-opt texas.
Probably not the best example to follow.

Do tell about Jefferson and Texas as Jefferson died in 1826, and the Austin's colony was established in 1821, long after Jefferson left office, and the Texas Revolution began in 1835.

If anyone bothered to watch the link that Frank posted in the OP, you'll notice Beck had a clip of Maxine Waters slipping up about being a socialist. Here's the clip in its context:

He can't endorse a candidate since he's under a contract with FOX. He could however have Schiff & Rand on his show once again, which he promised Rand Paul already.

My folks used to think O'Reilly was decent then he went big gov. Now they like Beck more than anyone. Not that they think he is great but they do watch him. I think he has opened peoples eys a bit and it makes it easier for me to plant seeds. Viewers that have been watching him are much easier to talk to about the real issues and they are much more open to revolutionary ideas. I only bring this up as my folks are retired and get SS and are the typical late 60s type persons.
But Beck is such an actress!!

No, it's the (so-called) sheeple we have to educate. That would give us massive strength. We need to get the Entire Nation to see just how threatened they are. Exactly what the mainstream media keep hidden from them.
Remember, they 'ain't' on the Internet, reading the Politics Forum. That is the problem. :eek:

If Beck is CIA...then he'll endorse the uneducated quitter Sarah Palin as third party so that Obama gets relected with 40% of vote..
If Beck is truly "converted"...he'll back the liberty candidate

The way I see it, there's still a risk of him endorsing Palin even if he's changing. My dad still likes Sarah Palin, but he's still learning about all of this stuff. He thinks she might be a good lady, but he's starting to see where the banks have been behind all the candidates. We need to provide Beck with compelling evidence that our candidate is the only clean one in the field and we need to make sure he sees that Palin is tainted. I haven't ruled out the possibility that he just didn't research things that much in 2008; he has admitted he was wrong on stuff like the economy.
If he sees all of that and still endorses someone like Palin, he's a shill.

I think that's true of the MSM. A lot of people here say the MSM "lies" but it's not that simple. If they outright lied and it was easily provable they wouldn't last long. What they do is twist facts to suit their agenda, which is much more difficult to expose.
