oh. my. god.

Everyone: watch to the end.

The song at the end is the best thing I've ever heard, ever. When I hear it, I feel like dressing up in a Captain America suit and kicking some ass on American Gladiators.

I'm not sure if it's just me this year, or the campaigns, but they all seem so fucking cheesy, entertainment driven, and almost reality show-esq.

Holy fuck. That can't be real. Did they really think having that guy puff a cigarette at the end was a good idea? Man, that was so lame, but, at the same time, I loved it. Having the balls to smoke in an add is pretty ballsy for a politician.

As someone reminded me yesterday, it's still not as retarded as "I'm not a witch" But it's close

Herman Cain singing a stunning rendition of John Lennon's "Imagine" with just a few different words....

I dont get it why in the world is he smoling...?

He's a totally likable guy, sugarcane.

But man, he's the master of flip-flop and he's a FED insider. He's not a political outsider, he's an insider. I wouldn't vote for him EVER.

Scheavo · « **Reply #12 on:** October 26, 2011, 01:38:53 PM »

He seems to be a Koch Brother candidate, meaning he's purely corrupt.

Yup. They're the ones who basically came up with the 9-9-9. Terrible regressive tax.

kirksnosehair · « **Reply #14 on:** October 26, 2011, 02:17:43 PM »

Based on his fundraising numbers I don't think he can last past South Carolina at the most, but if he pulls out a win in Iowa or New Hampshire, anything, could happen, and frankly, I'd be THRILLED if he were the Republican nominee. Because I think Obama would beat him in a landslide.

Then again, I thought Dubya was unelectable so what the hell do I know?

I don't know if you can say it failed... I'm sure 30% of the country will eat this up.

I wish that Obama would smoke at every speech, right before he starts talking, and then puts it out on the podium. That would be fantastic.

I would like this video more if it was Cain that smoked. I don't care if his campaign chairman smokes.

Well, sure. But I'm talking about us DTF folk.

I wonder.. if a candidate came out and said, "Dream Theater is awesome," how many votes would he get just for that endorsement?

Jon Hunstman already did that. He has 1 percent...

SMOKING A CIG CUZ FREEDOM

I thought the cig was a pretty good touch, but the black guy at the end sold it for me

By "the black guy" you mean Herman Cain, the presidential candidate this ad is for?

Wow, that's embarrassing lol. I haven't much time these last two months to really stay on top of this race in terms of watching debates or stuff on television. Everything I know is from various articles I come across online. This whole time I thought Cain was someone else

ReaperKK · « **Reply #27 on:** October 27, 2011, 10:15:01 AM »

that is one hell of an ad.

I hope Cain stays in this for the long haul, I love watching him debate, the whole apples & oranges thing was just hilarious.

Scheavo · « **Reply #28 on:** October 27, 2011, 12:59:08 PM »

Cain can be so entertaining, I almost think he's a paid actor.

Fuck, that just made me think of Reagan... maybe the man does have a chance.

jsem · « **Reply #29 on:** October 27, 2011, 02:17:32 PM »

Lol. Reagan did had Milton Friedman as his economic adviser though, and lolCain has no real economist or anything that helped him put together his 9-9-9. It's just Koch-brother funded organizations.

I am embarrassed by almost all of the Republican candidates running so far. The lesser evils seem to be Huntsman and Paul...

That's about right. Sixty percent of tea-partiers think it rocks, and sixty percent of Republicans think it's fucking stupid.

However, I think Braveheart's assessment is correct. He was clearly trying to rope in all of he anti-PC crowd, and half of them were pretty turned off by the whole thing.

As for me, if he'd been casually smoking while giving the message, or just had a smoke burning in front of him, it might have added to his likability. The over-dramatic smoking was more creepy than anything else.

You've gotta register as one, and vote for Paul in the primary/caucus.

What is the primary for? is it just a way to get an accurate statistics on who has more potential? Or does it count for something else later?
