Even though I live in the 10NC CD if you are elected I can say I have a representative in congress. I await election night with great anticipation. Good luck and Godspeed.

I will be writing in Libertarian Max Longley. Unfortunately my vote will be discarded, because people like Price fail to de-rig the elections. They're more concerned with pretending to support democracy overseas (at our expense of course) than in actually getting their own constitutents' votes counted.

However, the last six videos did not play. Can they be made available again? Lawson, you were great. Price has got to go! Please someone let me know how I can view the last six videos. Great videos!

I think he did a good job- but I would give him a few suggestions from my perspective. I know without a doubt he is very intelligent. He wouldn't have been able to do the things he has done if he wasn't incredibly bright. I just want to see him stand each time he speaks. I know he probably has a million topics running through his head at once but I would slow down his speech and I would attempt to speak a little more with passion- because I know he has it. I have no doubt he hasn't spent an enormous amount of time breaking down each topic and attempting to find the best solution- he is a scientist. However it wasn't 'logic' that got him involved and to run for office... it was his passion. At the end and a few times I got a glimpse of that passion- I would just advise him from my stand point to try to connect with that passion. The other guy is good at slowing things down and 'seeming' to be sincere about it (although I don't think he is.) The other guy is good- good at b.s.-ing, which is why scum like him stay in power. I would clearly advise BJ Lawson (yes I've donated to his campaign) to take a deep breath, slow down a little bit, feel that sense of 'passion' in his gut each time he goes to speak- and just express himself. Unfortunately most people are 'sheeple' and don't spend much time thinking about each topic- they unfortunately decide much upon emotion. I KNOW you have the emotion behind what you are doing... I have no doubt, I just want to see and sense it more. I want a chance to connect with you a little bit more. Show us that you are disappointed with the way things are going- (although I did get a sense of that here and there), take time to 'feel' your feelings while you are speaking... people connect with that. They trust someone they believe feels like they do. Slow it down a little bit, 'feel' and experience why it is you are doing what you are doing, and while I do think it is important to use your head of course, make sure the people see that you are passionate about this. I need to see that- I think most people need to see that, I think you'd be better off. I KNOW I support you, as 'if' I were a regular person- get me to believe it. The end was good, but I wanted to see a little bit more of that throughout. Stand up, stand tall, slow it down, feel your emotions, and speak from your heart as well as your head. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FOR DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING- A TRUE PATRIOT!!! -Jason (((Mr. Lawson, I HOPE you read this…)))

It was very strong, rapid-fire and put him on the defensive throughout. My only minor quibble regards a couple of questions wherein you remained seated. My first thought was that it was a mistake, negative body language or something along those lines. But near the end, I felt as if you were more relaxed and confident hence you didn't need to stand for a quick rebuttal. Meanwhile, Price stood every time but by the end he was fumbling with how to respond to you and was no longer affecting the body language of a "regal politician" that he had started with.

Ron Paul's book changed the way I view politics. It will make things much clearer if anyone is confused by what Ron Paul (or B.J.) says about certain issues. And beyond that, there are, as John says, a whole list of books you can look into if you want to know more (which i'm sure you will after reading it).

He recommends a list of books at the end, which together make up a fine basis for understanding the philosophy and the practice of liberty. -jcr Mike,
