Fall of the Republic: The Presidency of Barack Obama – by libertarian Alex Jones
Our good friend Max Keiser (who appears in both the film and the teaser trailer) tells me that Alex Jones’-s channel on YouTube has had 4,592,178 views. Wow.

Washington Post:
A soup-to-nuts agenda to reduce spending, kill programs, terminate whole agencies and dramatically restrict the power of the federal government.
Excellent.

Waiting for Barack Obamas choice for VP candidate
– Lawsuit about the ineligibility of Barack Obama for the US presidency. —- Not a hoax.
– Pranksters are sending false text messages. –- Did Caveat Bettor fall in this trap?
– Texas Rep. Chet Edwards is the surprise just out of the hat.
Bloomberg says WSJ says Tim Kaine is Barack Obamas VP.
I don’-t have a link, as the Bloomberg tape just printed it at 12:15pm EST. Will update when available.
Unfortunately, Intrade was down, so I could not check where things were trading.
He who laughs last, right Chris?
UPDATE: Jack Tapper says there is a hoax email out there, which could be the basis for the Bloomberg article.

Barack Obama drops hints about who his VP candidate will be. – Might be Evan Bayh.
Time:
QUESTION: One of the biggest moments in the campaign is going to be your announcement of a vice president. What is that decision going to tell voters about you?
BARACK OBAMA: Hopefully, the same thing that my campaign has told the American people about me. That I think through big decisions. I get a lot of input from a lot of people, and that ultimately, I try to surround myself with people who are about getting the job done, and who are not about ego, self—aggrandizement, getting their names in the press, but our focus on what’-s best for the American people.
I think people will see that I’-m not afraid to have folks around me who complement my strengths and who are independent. I’-m not a believer in a government of yes—men. I think one of the failures of the early Bush Administration was being surrounded by people who were unwilling to deliver bad news, or who were prone to simply feed the president information that confirmed his own preconceptions.
“-Not about ego”-…- is no good for Joe Biden.
“-Complement”-…-. is no good for Kathleen Sebelius and Tim Kaine.
So, it might be Evan Bayh.
UPDATE: Or Jack Reed.
