Here are our videos of ca (l.a.) gop straw poll today w/ron paul!

[Reason]

It was an amazing experience, after so many years of learning & teaching the message of liberty, to actually sit 20 feet from the man of integrity himself was a humbling experience. :)

VIDEOS WILL BE POSTED HERE WHEN THEY ARE DONE PROCESSING ON YOUTUBE

9:30 CENTRAL
10:30 EASTERN

there is a GOP dinner
that ends then in
LA so we have to
wait a bit for this.

[Reason]

haha I love #7

[eleganz]

That was the reason why Ron Paul was not allowed into the healthcare forum at the convention...we were too loud...and that was the morning crowd.

[Reason]

Thanks for all of the videos.

The full video (45mins) of the speaking event is uploading now. Will take a bit to finalize.

[libertybrewcity]

[trey4sports]

the dogs should have had signs that say "Ron Paw"

Hahaha.. + rep

[emr1028]

Haha, judging by these videos you'd think that this was a Ron Paul convention, not a GOP convention. The best part about all of this is that the local GOP people who were there are going to vote a lot closer to Ron Paul after they see this level of support.

lmao

[Working Poor]

Did Ron make a speech?

[Aratus]

yep! he sure did!

It's uploading right now but it is long so it's taking a bit of time. 60% done right now.

Yup, the timing of Ron Paul, the campaign and the California grassroots leadership was absolutely brilliant for this particular straw poll, what was most interesting is that some people did express positive feelings to our movement, of course I have a feeling many weren't happy because we were so loud and invading their precious GOP convention but we can't help that, we love our champ!

don't worry if they do not pick our champ. They will elect obama/bush 2012 and they can sit in their quite room and complain!!

[RonPaulFever]

Does anyone know if the vote counters are being monitored? if not, I predict shenanigans.

Awesome! Diversity. I see a biker dude, a young Newt Gingrich and a Janeane Garofalo lookalike :p

[Tod]

Hah!!! That's great!

[rp08orbust]

Jneane Garofalo lookalike :p

LOL! I was trying to remember her name when I saw this photo. Maybe it is her and Ron gets the coveted Garofalo endorsement!

[Tod]

Alright, I found the biker dude and the Janeane Garofalo (had to look her up first), but I'm not sure who you might think is the Newt....

Can't be. SFGate, that paragon of truthfulness said they had dreadlocks and tie dyed t shirts. Maybe you have the wrong picture?

Clearly this is a photoshop by the vast libertarian conspiracy.

Tons of honks, many were from arriving RP supporters but still a lot from random people, I saw one guy in an SUV give us a thumbs down but that was he extent of negativity I personally saw from drivers.
