The campaign should incorporate some of these into a foreign policy ad

I started tearing up within the first five seconds and cried the whole way through. I admit it.

Same here

I just posted this on facebook with the headline:"This brings tears to my eyes.....Let's REUNITE Families across the entire U.S. By bringing all of our troops home NOW!!!!!!!"

And then I commented on it with this:"The only true ANTIWAR CANDIDATE in 2012 is RON PAUL........Do it for the kids!!!!!"

I emailed the campaign suggesting they use something like this in a SC ad. Hopefully they consider it.

It's great to see these people coming home. SOME of the videos where produced professionally, though. They were delivered to the media, shortly after Obama announced the "end" of the Iraq occupation. The feelings you can see are real, but the filming had a purpose: to make Obama look like he did something great by bringing the solidiers home when in fact he just replaced them with mercernaries who get more money than the soldiers. It's sad that the real feelings of the good men and women in uniform got abused for such a propaganda stunt.

Nailed me. Bring them home!. My dad was not at a hot war but counted nuclear weapons for NATO in Europe and Cyprus and who knows where. I saw him six out of my first 14 years. Fucked me up a bit having to be "the man of the house"..
