Protesting Bill Clinton: Video From a Heckler’s Point of View




“How dare you”

Stumping for his wife at a campaign fundraiser in Minneapolis, former president Bill Clinton made the news recently for his blunt admonishment of 9/11 Truthers who were shouting during his speech.

News coverage of the event

The statements made by the protesters addressed concern over the following topics:

A longer video of the event was released on the activist We Are Change website. Those who do not publicly protest and have only seen protesters on television might find this longer version interesting.

Filmed by the protesters themselves, during one split screen scene the first-person camera angle elicits a feeling as if the audience members–disgruntled by the outbursts–are looking back directly at you the viewer, as if you are the protester. Very ‘Being John Malkovich‘.

‘We Are Change’ video of the event

Self-described anti-globalization and anti-privatization activists, the We Are Change website admits they don’t have all the answers:

“We are CHANGE. We are about education, motivation and activation. We do not know all of the answers, but we seek to redefine and reinvigorate the distribution of information. We recognize that the world does not function through a left/right paradigm, but a top/down hierarchy that threatens to destroy free society as we know it. As students of history we recognize the perils of continued globalization and it’s deceptive philosophy. Privatization does not equal progress.”

The heckling appears to have achieved mixed results. While some, like this website, have chosen to note the purpose of the protests, the former president is a master of public speaking and succinctly slapped them down. “How dare you” resonated much louder than the random topics blurted out in protest, as news coverage of the event demonstrated.

But right or wrong, answers or no answers, We Are Change certainly spread their message. Just like their website said they would.

      There is no way i could ever trust Sen. Clinton, she went to a Bilderberg Group meeting, those people think they can decide who our leaders will be so i have chosen Sen. Obama for the Dems candidate. But that does not mean that i would support him or any Dem. for a presidential candidate, when we finally get to November i will not have anyone to chose for our President. The Dems. and Reps. are two side of the same coin, in truth i think they are one organitzation that has two faces, they both do a public dance in front of the people on television and for the press while they conitinue to allow our country to fall apart. We currently have a foothold situation goin on in this country but no one what to talk about it in any shape of form, in fifteen to twenty-five years the United States we see today will be called a new name the North American Union!
