I am a 100% supporter of Ron Paul. However, I feel this clip needs to be seen. Thirty seconds of Mike Gravel, that democrat guy treated like a nobody and kicked out of the debates recently.

Apparently, Gravel released the Pentagon Papers into the Congressional Record in 1971, revealing the true nature of the US's involvement in Vietnam. He also successfully blocked renewal of the draft in 71, eventually leading to its' expiration. This guy's a god damned anti-war hero and it's a shame he's been excluded from the latest Democratic debates. His voice needs to be heard on that side. He deserves better in a time like this.

I respect Mike Gravel.

I think he is wrong on many - most - of his domestic policy positions, but the more people who are out there giving government and the media a symbolic middle finger salute, well, that's always something I can get behind.

wow.. he speaks with some serious zinggggg.... I think Ron Paul could use a litttle fire like this.

It is a shame that he was 'omitted' from the debates. He calls it like he sees it.

Besides those lengthy papers mentioned above, is there something I can watch 'that verifies that the military industrial complex rules the government'?
