Guys, this needs to somehow be spread into the mainstream. Television, however we have to do it. It's just too effective. In 24 hours this vid has had well over 95,000 views and was #1 top rated at YouTube today.

Whoever made this, the campaign NEEDS to bring them on.

Can anyone contact the guy who produced this and get them in touch with the campaign? I have a great feeling he can make a MAJOR difference in the NH/IA/SC primary ads and come out with astoundingly professional quality and maximum impact.

If this guy can seriously knock out nearly 100,000 views and almost 10,000 diggs in a hostile Digg environment in less than one day, imagine what this guy can do in these early primary states. It's unimaginable.

Haha, good catch, but no. I'm simply stating that the power of the campaign, in addition to bringing this guy on, would surpass our expectations when it comes to political advertising on the airwaves.

Calling to bury other stories and using multiple accounts is against Digg site policy and defeats our purpose. If we do that, we're no better than the Ron Paul Bury Brigade and those who seem have nothing better to do than leave nasty comments on every single Ron Paul article.

Let's stick to our principles, shall we? Urge your friends and family members to create their own account and digg up the video. Please note that digg accounts for your cat(s), dog(s), goldfish(es), etc. don't count. ;)

Dugg. The beginning makes me cry. Could be my favorite clip of Dr. Paul: "I am the champion of the Constitution." Who else has ever said that? In the last 100 years at least? Who has had the right to say it?

And I love the bit later on where he laughs when whositz notes that "The American people generally don't go for that." Compare Ron Paul's laugh (and check where he laughs at his own gaffe at the 2nd Amendment conference) with Hillary's cackle.

No bluster, no grandstanding, just simple conviction and quiet, unshakeable courage.

Not to mention a healthy, generous sense of humor.

God bless Ron Paul.

Huh??? The bury brigade are the mud-slinging ones... Do you not think this video deserves to be on the all time top page of digg?? I mean, seriously, please examine it's competition.

P.S. I only digg about 1 or maybe two RP stories a week because I don't believe in spamming them... But this is different.. this is viral to a degree not other RP video has ever been... Come on, Please.

Marrying your cousin is legal in many states. He did nothing illegal and I think it is very rude to criticize him for it. In some countries it is very common. All of my Egyptian brother and sister-in-laws are married to relatives, two to first cousins.
