We need some Celebrity endorsement, agree?

[plb]

Does anyone else agree?

[jake]

it would definitely be a big boost.

[nullvalu]

Couldn't hurt.. tho i've never been one to give a s*** what "celebreties" have to say..

[ClayTrainor]

Couldn't hurt.. tho i've never been one to give a s*** what "celebreties" have to say..

me neither however, lets not forget that america is OBSESSED with celebrities, and for some reason always look to them for advice.

not everyone, but alot of them.

[CelestialRender]

I'm hoping for Greenday. They're anti-war libertarians, so it would seem a natural fit.

[constituent]

i heard fred thompson might be looking for someone to throw his name behind.

he was in that one show, remember?

[nullvalu]

I'm hoping for Greenday. They're anti-war libertarians, so it would seem a natural fit.

No way, not gonna happen. They're way too mainstream to get involved in politics. Maybe in 1996 it would have worked.

I saw something on TV the other day about how the lead singer did some interview and in it he talked about how he hates Bush, but likes Obama and Bill Clinton. Sorta speaks for itself.

[newmedia4ron]

Send some letters. Jesse Ventura and Clint Eastwood are ones I'm doing.

Nah, lots of artists are political these days...Green Day would actually seem like good candidates and linkin park have have gone a bit political lately as well from the looks of their new video which seems very anti-war. I wonder is there a way to get a hold of them or their manager? Anyone know or want to try? But what about actors etc? Anyone think of any good ones lol

[Goldwater Conservative]

Clint Eastwood. He's a libertarian. I dare anyone to tell that guy he's weak because he opposes interventionism or nation-building (at least I hope he does).

Kurt Russell is also a libertarian.

Jesse Ventura would be a cool endorsement that I could see happening, since he leans libertarian. Maybe Donald Trump.

I think Bruce Willis and Gary Sinise are Republican or conservative, and if they're also anti-war Paul seems like their guy.

[VoteRonPaul2008]

YES!! send letters to everyone...

[plb]

I really wonder about linkin park because there videos are always extremely popular on youtube. Their latest song released a short time ago is already one of the top most viewed of all time. If we got them that would be something incredible.

[Primbs]

Avril Lavigne could be good. She collaborated with Linkin Park.

[Flash]

What about John Mayor? He is a Ron Paul fan isn't he? He should endorse him in public sometime.

[Lord Xar]

the very attractive woman from Baywatch.. D'angelo openly blogs and supports Ron Paul..

[aspiringconstitutionalist]

Tucker Carlson?

[aspiringconstitutionalist]

Jesse Ventura would be a cool endorsement that I could see happening, since he leans libertarian. Maybe Donald Trump.

Donald Trump's gung ho for Rudy.

[steph3n]

celebs can express their opinion but most of the time it is dumb and I don't care at all

[plb]

We should try getting in contact with some of them.

[NinjaPirate]

Soad?

[squirrelbrewer]

I hope John Popper is supporting Ron Paul. John's known to be a free market, freedom type of guy. Blues Traveler doesn't carry as much weight in the jamband community as they used to, but they can still rip some pretty mean jams....

[Brennon]

Maynard from tool has done some anti-war songs recently and HATES censorship. He seems to be very well spoken and rather free thinking but also does not care too much for the spotlight.

[constituent]

...but also does not care too much for the spotlight.

lol.

that's gene simmons' real tongue too, you knew that right?

[Jordan]

Neil Young.

Can't believe no one mentioned these guys:

Rage Against the Machine
http://www.ratm.com/new2/freedom/main.html
Rage has this Freedom Fighter of the Month promo on their site. Maybe we can influence them to have a Freedom Fighter of the Constitution promo too.

Foo Fighters
http://www.foofighters.com/community
Foo Fighters were essentially Democrat and inspired by Dean, but the PAC they associated with "fights against the influence of the far right-wing and their radical, divisive policies and the selfish special interests that for too long have dominated our politics."

Sounds like these guys may be inspired by Dr Paul as well.

What you need to do is look into local celebrities in the early states. Time to do some cultural research.

[koob]

Most celebrities are by default liberals. I think this has something to do with the fact they are rich. Unlike greedy Rockefeller types they didn't earn their money through ruthless capitalism, they just happened to star in a good movie and get paid a $#@!load of money for it. So, they feel like they don't deserve the money they have. Being a liberal and saying they love the poor and welfare is their way of giving back. They believe they are helping. It makes them feel good.

That being said. This won't surprise any of you: http://www.newsmeat.com/celebrity_political_donations/
that site has a list of all donations giving by celebrities to political candidates. It's very disappointing to see many actors, and writers I respect donate to Hillary Clinton. And notice: most celebrities that aren't liberal are nashville poppers or NASCAR drivers. Ugh. And this is interesting: why are all gameshow hosts republicans?

[progrock]

My personal favorite band has made songs about our current war situation. i don't know if they endorse ron paul. but here are the lyrics to a song called
"prophets of war" by Dream Theater from the systematic Chaos album.

It burns deep down inside of me
We have ourselves to blame
Not questioning, accepted as the truth

Debate this fight its just cause
The facts do not supports theirs
To liberate a people
And rid them of tyrant rule

Is it time to make a change
Are we closer than before
Can we help them break away
Are we profiting from war
It's time to make a change

Intrigued
Got your attention - Deceived
Since the inception - Our brave
Fight for what reason

Compelled
Can we clean up this mess
The loss of loved ones
A perverse request
They continue the same rhetoric
These derelicts that profit
Win or lose

Is it time to make a change
Are we closer than before
Can we help them break away
Are we profiting from war
It's time to make a change

Time for change
Fight the fear
Find the truth
Time for change

The only thing
That I believe
Will help us see this through is faith
Pray they will forgive
Forgive our arrogance
So we can make it right
Right what they have wronged

See you sweat
Unexpected, controversial
Get used to it
Things are gonna get personal
Your sympathy
A pitiful display you stutter
Your empathy
Means nothing if there is no honor
Responsible
Of this you are incapable
We implicate
Incriminate - Exacerbate - Too much at stake

Our Fathers, Mothers
Sisters, Brothers
Sons and Daughters
Forced
Perpetuating their ideals
A mindless act
To stay the course

Is it time to make a change
Are we closer than before
Can we help them break away
Are we profiting from war

Is it time to make a change
Are we closer than before
Can we help them break away
Are we profiting from war
Is it time to make a change
A change from what it's been
Can we help them break away
Is our patience wearing thin
It's time to make a change

Time for change
Fight the fear
Find the truth
Time for change
