I have donated once already will donate again, does anyone have poll information on his chances? I would assume pretty slim, not that it isn't worth fighting though.

That's cool, but I already have one....

Is there an alternate prize? A flamethrower perhaps?

Would help if he didn't look like a skinhead. I approve of his sentiments but he needs to get rid of the facial hair and grow some on his head.

Thats pretty shallow. Pretty similar to the sheeple mentality of voting for someone because of their skin color.

He's a former Marine...I assume the haircut is leftover from his military career.

Somebody must have missed the "haircut" poll at GIM, where it was discovered that there is a huge "miser" population here that forgoes the barber and simply shaves their own hair down.

I can't believe that more people are more concerned with his hair, than the message.

His message is spot on. And the hair goes well with one of his biggest items on his resume, his iraq-war experience.

Let me ask you, and not to start a flame/troll thread to get anybody banned. But it doesn't bother you at all that he has jewish ancestors, right? It's all about the message, right? It doesn't bother me, but I know some here might object to that.

Specsaregood, I've said this before. It's irresponsible to think that ALL jews are bad or evil. You've got Aron Russo, Peter Schiff, Benjamin Freeman etc. It's just as reckless to suggest that any race is this etc etc. But then you've got the zionist Adam Schiff, rep from Cali. I personally treat everyone as an individual and I treat them the same, but always have my wits around me.

We are in complete agreement.
And for the record he is also "some Cherokee and god knows what else".

In related news:
Here is a link to his new radio ad that is about to start playing in NM:
http://twiturm.com/bmi8r

It promotes his upcoming, "Out Shoot a Marine" competition.

Their campaign has been quite creative.

They are doing a fundraising drive today.
They are just under 1k to get 10k for the day.

Donate $20.10 and get entered in for a raffle for the Reminton 770!

I donated, he is a great candidate and working his ass off for the nomination.

Since no one else has what it takes to say it, I guess it's up to me...

CONTROLLED OPPOSITION 101 baby.

Ha ha, Oh man we are so doomed if we keep walking into traps with our eyes wide open. I can not even imagine the laughs they get from stuff like this.

There is an old saying were I come from....Full me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.....

Do you have any evidence that Kokesh is "controlled opposition"? I didn't think so.

He's a good guy. I had the opportunity to hang out/party with him at a conference earlier this year. I think this Congressional campaign is a real longshot however, given the demographics of the district. Hopefully I'll be proven wrong.

Besides common sense and knowlegde of how movements and rebellions are infiltrated and hijacked, no, I have no "evidence" that you would believe.

Is it legal to have a raffle in which you have to donate to a political campaign to enter?

Unless there is a "no purchase necessary" clause, probably not. I won't be alerting the authorities, however.

If you are saying that, I doubt you know much about Kokesh or the people involved in his campaign. The people involved in helping his campaign are no doubt some of the hardest-core liberty activists.

Kokesh has been a hardcore anti-war activist AND pro-veteran activist.
Remember this from the RNC convention? That's him.
http://staging.radaronline.com/exclu...keshbanner.jpg

Michael Maresco aka (LibertyRider) is working on the campaign full-time. If you don't know about Michael, checkout http://libertyrider.com/
He went on bike-tour coast to coast stopping at hundreds of sheriff's offices and handing out the book: "The County Sheriff: America's Last Hope" (http://sheriffmack.com/index.php/books-by-richard-mack) Which argues that the county sheriff is the highest law office in the county and has the constitutional authority and duty to override federal police, etc.

Also, the "freedom's phoenix" guys have been working on the campaign hard. If you don't know about those guys....well then you haven't been paying attention. They coined that "Ron Paul Revolution" sign and really kickstarted the grassroots movement that got thousands of new liberty activists involved.


While his campaign is definitely an underdog going off past stats, if anybody can pull an upset it is gonna be Adam and his crew.

To claim he is "controlled opposition", is a bit insulting. How about coming up with some evidence of such? Because his record and the people involved in his campaign is a record that does not say "controlled opposition" to me.

Well you've pricked my curiosity. Why would you consider him controlled opposition?

I ask honestly, because as I pointed out I have donated before and plan to again but will direct my money elsewhere if you can throw some dirt on him.
