Ron Paul has famously had thousands of wonderful YouTube videos made by supporters, spontaneously, without any central direction by his campaign. The musical ones have been especially impressive. This grassroots media have been one of the most inspiring aspects of the rEVOLution. Unfortunately, the few self-directed YouTubes on Barr I have seen, such as this one, have been negative. Without the YouTube constituency, the Barr phenomenon will never be even a decent afterward to the Ron Paul movement. If Barr wants to win over this group, he must become more radical, more libertarian, more inspiring to the youth of America. Condemn the empire, Bob. Call a spade a spade. Attack the corporate state, the military-industrial complex, and the banking establishment. Make the sickening elevation of the torture and indefinite detention regime a top issue. Call for a return to Jeffersonian America, with a fully restored Bill of Rights an unparalleled priority. Denounce the policy of perpetual war for perpetual peace and point out that it was wrong to vote for the Iraq war regardless of the intelligence and administration propaganda. Demand drug war amnesty as a way of renouncing your past.

Talk like a Founding Father, talk like a libertarian, talk like Ron Paul. Or else the YouTube community, and all it represents, will continue to characterize you as just another Republican.
