7. Great message!

He articulated so clearly so many things I believe!

[blm]

8. MH1 gave me a heads up about Lessig a few weeks ago and it really opened my eyes to

a whole new area of debate that voters need to consider.

I also think Lessig's points will go a LONG way with Independent voters.

10. GOOD STUFF!!!

Keep on going!

11. That video is the best summation of why I support Obama

and can't support Hillary. This man lays out clearly and precisely and logically why every honest and moral Democrat should do the same thing.

12. Finally some deep insight void of noiz

Thank you Lawrence Lessig!

13. That took my breath away!

Where in the world did you find that????

Thank you for posting.

16. Where did you find that...

A friend of mine is a friend of a friend of Lessings.

Great stuff though, eh? LOL

14. The next dem president needs to appoint Lessig to the federal bench.

[TheDoorbellRang]

15. Quite a cogent argument

He articulates a lot of the same reasons that led me to Obama, too.

17. This is why the election is so, so, so, so important

to people like myself. I've posted threads outlining all of Clinton's rovean tactics before, but people perceive it (incorrectly) as flame bait.

[Levgreee]

18. He should've also emphasized Obama's dedication to open government, because that is his 'action'

behind his talk, of more integrity of government. He won't just make us take his word, he'll let us see what's going on.

[helderheid]

19. WOW. I will forward this on.

21. Lessig rocks.

Hey, articulate, well reasoned arguments win over vapid meme repetition for me every time.

But I'm sure I'll hear that Lessig is an "empty suit" in 5, 4, 3, 2...

[I Vote In Pittsburgh]

22. 1 ...

23. Welcome to DU, Boppers!

24. Thank you

Lessig explains it all. I hope everyone sees this.

26. Holy crap, he's good.

What a mind.

[helderheid]

27. Kickety KICK!

28. tell me lessig started out supporting kucinich...

...and switched to obama only after kucinich dropped out. on all the issues lessig mentions kucinich is miles ahead of obama and clinton PUT TOGETHER.

second, he misinterprets the obama reagan gaffe. reagan was a war crminal and a corporatist. the republican party was the party of ideas--really, really bad ones. obama was pandering to the "center", period. clinton was wrong in he attack, but lessig is wrong in his interpretation.
