I applaud Bill for making a case for a much needed "serious" conversation; and while I agree with much of what he says... who's flippin' idea was it to bring in "Millie" the F...king dog? Are you kidding me???

Why buy the election when it's cheaper just to buy both primaries?

Dude,

I am 100% with you on the issues, but Bill Still looks like a mortician and has zero organization or money. Why not get behind Ron Paul or Gary Johnson instead?

I will not get behind a candidate that is dead wrong on serious (cripplingly so) issues and doesn't appear to have any desire to discuss where those points are. Both of those candidates are.

I don't expect either of those two to talk with me, of course, but if they want my support they'd not only have to, they'd have to change policies.

The funny thing (not really) is the further the economy goes into the ****ter, the more people will be willing to listen to Bill Still.

We're working on loosening him up a bit. He's just very focused.

He's much more personable than he appears in his videos.

Anyone who is in Michigan and wants to meet him in person, contact me.

I've met him several times in person; he has shot footage here in Niceville and I accompanied him to The Hill this summer; I've been to his home as well. He's a genuinely nice guy and very personable "face-to-face".

I wish Bill Still the best, but Ron Paul is at least 95% right on the issues.

And there are different grades of long shot. Paul will at least get hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of votes and make it clear that there is a huge contingent of anti-Fed, anti-debt, anti-war dissenters.

It's hard to imagine Bill Still getting 100,000 votes, much less significant media coverage.

Bills money positions are second to none. But, *******n...he said he favors the

Patriot Act and wouldn't dismantle it. I wish Bill Still would crawl up Ron Pauls

ass and change his mind on money matters. I gave Ron Paul more money just a few

days ago. I'd pay Bill to go talk to Paul. A youtube chat debate would be great.

I met Ron Paul and my impression is that he is...distant even when he is right in front of you. My voting for him is moot because of my citizenship. My daughter likes him because he is anti war.

Ron Paul says that Iran is not building a nuke and gets crap for it. Then the Secretary of Defense comes out and says that Iran is not building a nuke. To make such a statement, the Secretary of Defense would have to have very solid evidence. Meanwhile the US is rallying the rest of the world to sanction Iran and the administration trying to pin a phony terror plot on the Iranian government. Then Santorum reveals that we have a program to kill Iranian civilians (Nuke Scientist).

The way we operate is enough to make any self respecting Muslim want to strap on a bomb belt even before the video of our soldiers urinating on dead Taliban. Ron Paul does not strike me as the kind of man that would authorize the killing of civilians of other nations or trying to rally the world against another country on pre crimes.

Of all the candidates, I think Ron Paul is the most likely to have that honest conversation with the American people. Bill Still would probably have that same honest talk, but don't see him as being able to take the election this time around. We can't have another 4 years of what we are doing. This is Ron Paul's third go at it, so in a way he has paid his dues to make it this far.

Great video, I sent him a $100 just for having the brains to understand the REAL issues of money and finance AND for having great music. I backed Ron Paul in his last run and gave him lots of $$$$ and time...then I found Karl and got straight on a lot of $hit. I have been a gold buyer for 35 years and used to think it was the end all ( bought my first 1/10 oz at 9 years old) but then Karl asked if I would give up all my gold to get the gold backed currency I wanted...way to blow my halcyon fantasy Karl. Now I buy it as a vehicle to compound the $$$ I have. Paul disciples better read up on the cross of gold you will be crucified on if you get what you want. Bill Still gets my time and Cash this time....hope he spends some of the money on a stylist so he is a little more prsentable.

[X] Bill Still, I disagree on issues with 100% of the candidates. The significant, math, and justice, leads me to only one choice at this time. Even reasonable people that use logic and thinking will disagree on other issues. Bill Still is the only candidate that deals with the core of every economic problem and uses math. NO MORE GOVERNMENT BORROWING!!! I also realize how hard it is after following Bill Still for years to speak in public. I do not think Bill Still has a chance to win but I would like to see another in the future to pick up the torch and carry it through if we have a chance to make it that long. When this goes full blown and we go back and look at choices, Bill Still ran for 2012 and you can't take that away. The choices we had on the other 2 sides never did address our problems, and that goes for almost every country on this planet. I don't care what Bill Still knows or does not know on certain issues. To me its significant and insignificant. Yes, those other issues need to be fixed, but the current fire needs to be put out before every thing else. I'm voting [X] Bill Still 2012,
