Be sure to hide the valuables!

When I heard about this, I heard it was a bunch of people reading it. When I saw it was a bunch of celebrities, I was disappointed.

WOW WOW WOW!!

Sounds like a 230 yr old message directed at King George and Blackwater with out a single word changed from the original Declaration. I don't think some of those actors couldn't of done so well a job unless they know how those injustices feel today.

Maybe those celebrities will endorse Ron.

Here is the the YouTube link, it is only at 7,077 since March 2007. Funny number I wonder if I just lucked out or it's stuck there. Although the original is of higher quality lets make this number rise.

I was thinking perhaps we can do something similar with Ron Paul supporters.

Why make it, these are what most people worship in this country, the American Royalty, nothing would have a greater impact on the"I have to watch American Idol crowd". Heck the name says it Idol worship. It has much broader appeal than unknowns. Besides these people are professionals at what they do and can one imagine the money and profession talent that went into this. Why reinvent that wheel? Just my opinion.

Most of those celebrities are extreme socialist/communist leftists.

Yes but that's what's makes it so good because many people in the USA believe that too. So when they see their Idols supporting this Ideas of Freedom and revolt. They might believe it, or short circuit their brains a little. The idea is to appeal to the largest amount of sheeple to awaken them and these actors are their hero's. Not unknowns. Beside these actors could of turned this role down so maybe there is still hope for even them.

It was completely awesome of Morgan Freeman(love that name) as a black man stating look at the noble idea's of the Declaration and not the flaws of the men who wrote it.

I was gonna say the exact same thing. They may believe the words they're saying as an overall "idea", but in practicality they are almost diametrically opposed to the ideals of the founders.

I think they were all gung-ho to do this because they thought they were making some clever comment about the Bush administration, not out of any real deeply held principles of freedom.

And why give Graham Greene the paragraph slamming the "Indian Savages"?

"He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions."

They are fascists, not socialists... the socialism, capitalism at odds with one another is a false dichotomy...
