Stop Dreaming, definitely. As good as "A New Hope" is, it makes a comment about Romney and Mormonism that is totally out of line and is against everything this campaign is about. Unless he takes this out, PLEASE, PLEASE do not use this video, Max.

A New Hope would be perfect without the taser dude and attacks on other candidates. So Stop Dreaming might be the best first video to show.

Yeah, Romney can't really help being from a family tree like that. Criticizing his flip-flopping or something would've been more appropriate.

I strongly agree with this. If police over-stepping their authority needs to be touched on, there is a whole mother-intercoursing PLETHORA of better examples.

Actually, if someone has another clip similar to it, where people are getting brutalized by police, that would be great. I love the tazer dude. But it is too controversial now.

I know this isn't an optino but I prefer 'when in the course of human events...' over stop dreaming

I see no reason to insult Mormons. For what purpose would we do that? All it's going to do is lose us votes. Not to mention, Ron Paul himself would be against it.

I also agree with replacing the tazer incident.

Other than that, I love the video. It's wonderful.

I vote for choice #1.

There is so much good stuff in it. Maybe the person who made the video would do a version with those parts taken out?

Stop Dreaming. Sorry but a "new hope" isn't as good and makes a couple mistakes. I wasn't moved by a new hope I was by everything aarvard has made.

I say to not bother making such a request in an ad. It is a pain to type out an address such as one towards a YouTube video link. There could also be legal ramifications of giving a link to YouTube.

Scientific Method -> Goosebump Meter -> Stop Dreaming -> off the charts...

Intellectual Feeling Method:
Stop Dreaming -> new prospects
A New Hope -> motivational for existing supporters and fence sitters

Who do you want to reach more?

New Hope looks more proffesional. It would be better without the mormonism mention but other than that it's very moving.

Give the web site. I would imagine a lot of people would have no clue as to how to find it, otherwise.

Regarding ads:
The headline should be 1/3 of the space. The "attention getter"/illustration should take up the next 3rd, and the final 3rd of the flyer should be the details/body text.

I wouldn't recommend insulting Mormons. The way I see it is marriage is a religious institution and practice. It was put under the jurisdiction of the State by King Henry. For the US to establish monogamous marriage and prohibit the free exercise of any other form of marriage is in my opinion a gross violation of the 1st Amendment. In addition, no political candidate should be put to religious test and corruption of blood is not in our nature.

If our Mormon friends want to live in some unconventional family relationships then that is their right. It is nothing like 'human sacrifice' as analogized to in Reynolds (http://supreme.justia.com/us/98/145/case.html). But I have heard the Mormons have opposed gay marriage legislation so I guess what goes around comes around.
