Couldn’t make it to Restoring Love? As you’ve seen by now, TheBlaze has you covered. In fact, here is the opening video from the night that thousands inside Cowboys Stadium saw. It’s called the “History of America,” and describes how Glenn Beck came to realize we need to reconnect with the story of America:

    Wow! I think Ron Paul would be “creeped out” by Brother Winston Paul! I’m sure he would not support raging rhetoric, and neither would his son Rand Paul, Senator who was actually elected and has some power to change things. These young people are products of being indoctrinated in public schools,instead of educated. I was appalled when I entered college in 1964 and the Profs were doing nothing but tearing down all the historical heroes of America. I like a lot of Ron Paul’s Libertarian ideas and beliefs. But the Fanaticism of some of his “followers” is just too Anti-American and “out there” for me.

      Young man, I write this reply after I just left my wife and son and returned back to Afghanistan. I hope one day you will realize how great America is. I have lived 9 years of my life overseas, mainly in the defense of our great country. Everytime I come home, it is an emotional experience. You have no idea what the rest of the world is like. I am not some tourist who goes and just sees the best things of a place while I am there for a few weeks. I live with the people, I speak their languages, which I speak 6 fluently. I live among them, I see life through their eyes, I serve them when I can. I have many friends from many countries. I have lived in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East. I can state with great understanding all that America has to offer, I see the good and the bad of the rest of the world. I pray that one day you will understand the great blessing that is yours to live in a country that does not know what poverty even really looks like, true poverty, not the crap that the media says is poverty. One day you will understand.

It’s sad to see you young folks being taught a different history in school. You live in a special place and the ideals it was founded need to be preserved. I hope you get it one day.

    Glenn is one of a very few individuals that is appointed in time to arouse the souls of mankind. His gift of storing telling, his contrite spirit, his ability to reach into and touch the spirit can only be received by a person who themselves has a child like spirit and is willing to see things as they really are. His vision and drive…the very thing that makes his heart pound with passion…comes from a man that himself has taken a great fall in his history and his life. But through his healing journey, his eyes have been opened and his mouth has been anointed to share the healing medicine of truth. And now he has been trusted an endowed with this special gift to share, so that we may be healed too…as individuals and then therefore as a nation. Ridicul, unforgiveness, pride, hate for one another and many other enemies of the heart and mind interfere and many times block that medicine from working and therefore we remain sick and unreceptive to treatment. I love Glenn. His style and purpose. Is he perfect? No! Does he make mistakes? Yes! But Glenn is a special person with a special purpose for a special time.

      I agree, IPad Guy..—–Glenn’s words and sentiments are a tremendous PUSH BACK against the decades-long inundation from the left. He hits a sweet and solemn chord within the hearts of conservatives; in tune with our greatest personal desire to secure our country’s future and prosperity, and delivers a resounding rejection of the Left’s Corrosive Slop, currently masked as a wholesome meal “…sure to fortify”.

      Our silence has been our consent for Big Government to continue their expanding domination over us, yet now, my voice proudly joins Glenn and his allies—the millions of Americans ready to STAND AND PUSH BACK.

      Thanks, Glenn, for reminding us of the courage and accomplishments of those who came before us, and the power we possess to reject and slap away the filthy plate of Big Government.

And if you are not inspired, either you were not there tonight…or you are dead inside. I do not need to say, “God bless Glenn,” because God already has. Those among us who believe in the message he carries also are blessed. Otherwise we wouldn’t be here far from home, and open to ridicule. Ridicule that we welcome, since in our righteousness, it cannot harm us. It makes us stronger.

    A REAL Tea Partier’s commentary on a FAKE-tea partier’s creepy, propaganda film:

    “Decades from now, what will you say?”
    I was a “Paulbot.” I was there. I WITNESSED WITH MY OWN EYES… THE DIRTIEST, MOST CORRUPT ELECTION THE COUNTRY HAD EVER SEEN! In 2012, the gop tried every slimy trick. Poll-cooking, media blackouts, tea-party co-opting, ridicule, rumor-mongering, fear-mongering, debate exclusion, debate marginalizing, demonizing his supporters, broken rules, broken bones, delegate theft, false arrests, lies, propaganda…

    (Beck-style scripted pause)

    … but (Beck-style scripted grin) THEY FAILED! Ron Paul was nominated in Tampa that year! EASILY WON election. And as his administration began the national healing the LEFTIST GOP (and it’s FAKE-conservative media) FAUGHT IT EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. America, emboldened with renewed humble confidence, streamlined government and BOOMING PROSPERITY (with the gutting of UNCONSTITUTIONAL regs and CONCLUDED “WARS”), elected a Constitution Party President in 2016. The Grand Old Party (having cheat-nominated “conservative” Lindsey Graham that year) finally did WHAT IT SHOULD HAVE YEARS BEFORE… merged with the democrat party.

      I get your frustration with the GOP and even with the conservative commentators during this election. However one thing you have to give Beck credit for is the fact he realizes the solution does not lie with politicians. The sooner you Paul followers realize this the better off all of us will be. Romney at his worst is still going to be pro American ideals and principles. Obama at his best is a socialist.

      Sit your asses home and bitch and complain about not having your leader in office, but know it was you and not us who sat and complained about not getting their way, while we stood and did the best

      Chris260, Romney is a socialist, this is what you people need to realize. Socialism is not Communism. It is big government over the people. We are supposed to be the opposite, a Republic, the people over the government. Romney is not for restoring the Constitution and Bill of Rights. He has said that he does not believe that assault weapons should be in the hands of the people. He is for the NDAA that Obama signed, he is for the Patriot Act, he is for big government. He is another puppet, just like Obama, to the big financial corporations that he has been a big part of his whole life. Paul supporters willnot just stay home, they will vote Gary Johnson or write Paul’s name in. Romney will not be able to defeat Obam without us. So, it will be up to you and the rest of the Republicans to actually get Obama out. A vote for Romney will be a vote for four more years. You have been given the facts, now your vote will be the deciding factor.

      While I supported and voted for Ron Paul, I think the time has come to let it be. No, Romney is not my first choice. No, Romney is no Ronald Reagan. No, Romney is not seriously conservative; BUT, neither is he a socialist, marxist, arrogant, narcissistic, America hating community organizer whose GOAL is the transformation of the United States into a third world nation. So, brother winston smith, I will not be writing in Ron Paul (and thus giving my vote to Oblamer).

      Team1Blazer, Propaganda is all that is. You were never a Paul supporter. If you would have been a Paul supporter, then you would know that he still has a chance at the nomination. His name will be put on the ballot for nomination as he has the number of states with the plurality of delegates. True Paul supporters will never give up, will never vote for the lesser of two evils and will continue the r3VOLution beyond this election cycle. We have won chair positions in many states and are going to change the GOP back to what it used to be. The party has lost its way and does not even tout the principles that made it what it was anymore. It is evident that the GOP has lost its way in the way they held the primary, with violation of party rules, locking out certain Republicans because they did not like who they were supporting, committing federal crimes to coerce voters and much more. They seemed to be following the Liberal playbook in everything they did. In Georgia, they put up a policy denouncing the NDAA, until an amendment said they should not support any candidate that believed in the NDAA. They quickly got rid of that policy, why? Because Romney is for the NDAA. Blew my mind. I have been a Republican for 36 years, but I am not sure if I will continue. Shame on the GOP.
