This is an incredibly inspiring video, especially coming from the heartland of American in my homestate of Illinois, "The Land of Lincoln". I am so proud of these guys for their heart, soul, energy and enthusiasm. The Ron Paul Revolution of Freedom and Liberty is alive and well here in the 89th Longitude West which splits right through the heart of Illinois and is where Springfield is located. Springfield is exactly 89 miles from the Gateway Arch in St. Louis. If you have a heart and a soul you will be deeply moved by the recording of the incident at the end of the video in which the leader of Mitt Romney Illinois campaign forcefully removes a Ron Paul sign from a Ron Paul supporter and steps on it. There a higher power that will prevail in this revolution and it's spelled with five (5) letters: T R U T H. Hat Tip to AlpineJones, the creator of this video, who wrote:
"My goal with this video is to inspire other Ron Paul supporters to go out and join the fun with the Meet Up groups. Illinois Ron Paul supporters had an amazing turn out at the straw poll. We also had a lot of fun and a great rally. Lets keep up the momentum."
