For Liberty: How the Ron Paul Revolution Watered the Withered Tree of Liberty

As the 2007-08 presidential campaign cycle offered up the usual slate of Washington insiders, Ron Paul, an obscure Congressman from Texas brought an alternative voice that challenged the political establishment. Advocating a philosophy of sound money, a non-interventionist foreign policy, strict Constitutionalism, and individual liberty, Dr. Paul inspired a unique grassroots movement unmatched in American history - the repercussions of which continue to reverberate today and into the future of the American psyche. For Liberty: How the Ron Paul Revolution Watered the Withered Tree of Liberty follows this historic campaign from the perspective of grassroots activists, and showcases the unique, often bizarre, yet groundbreaking projects they undertook as they brushed aside traditional campaign methodology.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

As a Ron Paul supporter who put his boots on the ground during the campaign, I simply loved this documentary. The film brought back many great memories of the good times we had, and informed me of some of the moments of the campaign that I had forgotten. The interviews were excellent, the cast of characters unforgettable. this film may not be for everyone, neocons and leftists will probably not understand, but for someone who was there, and lived the experience of working to change America, to right it's path, I am extremely pleased that this film was made. I especially liked how the producers exposed the media bias, especially Fox News, and the vendetta they carried against Ron in the debates and commentary. The country should have been up in arms over the shameful treatment he received from the media. Dr. Paul should be commended for his quiet dignity through all this, and the film makes this evident.I can't wait for "For Liberty, part 2, Ron Paul wins, 2012!"

I have always loved history and I have been inspired by the elegant simplicity of the documents left to us by our founding fathers. I have often lamented the erosion of the principles by revisions, that nullified the intent of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The election process has usually been distilled to a choice between two evils. The all important selection process has been reduced to sound bites. The major media outlets control the candidate selection processes. The two party system limits our choices. The Granny bus, those who walked, those who bicycled, those who raised money to float the Who's Ron Paul Blimp, have inspired me. This documentary showed how we the people can act independently but in concert to effect change. All of my life people have told me "Alan, you can't change the world." Watching this movie I realized how wrong they were, I'm going to follow my instincts, and my conscience, I'm inspired and because of this film I will do more to effect change in 2012.

I have followed Dr. Ron Paul since 1988 and find him to best represent my view in Congress. What a surprise to find a documentary film about him, his campaign for liberty and the impact he is making on the political scene. This is must see stuff (after you've watched TV news) and want the real story. A well done film document about the sea change underway across our nation as everyday people rediscover the founders dream of individual liberty. This is not just political rhetoric from politicians and bureaucrats who are pandering for votes - this is the America that you and I live in, real people, getting out and working for Liberty. They speak about it in the language that we all understand as free Americans. I hope we ALL get the message!

I can see why this movie was shown at so many theaters! Very well done and it brought back so many memories. I recommend for anyone to get an accurate view of the US you live in today concerning campaigns, and media watch this movie! So many wonderful people came together to work hard for their values. I hope for a sequel because there was much left out, and much left to happen. I also love how many interviews with just regular people there were. They did a great job not making it about a popularity contest. I am so glad the creators have made the DVD's available at such a low cost especially to those who want to pass it out to friends or even to the public. I would have liked to have seen at least a mention of Operation: Live free or Die, the movement that brought over 500 people to New Hampshire to campaign for Ron Paul from November of 2007 till after the primary on January 8th. Great work, and great movie!
