Obama Girl Nightmare
Our Ron Paul Girl series of videos was clearly a rip-off of the world-famous Obama Girl, so it was a great honor when they suggested a collaborative video instead of sending us a cease and desist.

Hmm, well I certainly can’t argue with the relevance of this particular comment. We have a new Ron Paul Girl video coming out soon and, oh by the way, did you ever want to have sex with someone of a different race? Here’s how!
jed - hilarious comment response!
Keep up the great work!
You are pure genius:)
Really looking forward to the new RP video. Thanks again.
@Jed - I agree with Jack, great comment on the spammer.
I’m excited to see this new video….I’ve got high hopes after the last few.
I’ll throw it up on paulandkucinich.com once it’s posted.

Good Video…the only thing that I didn’t like was, the obama girl saying that Ron Paul and Obama aren’t really all that different…Ummmm…well truth is, besides thier stance on the war, they are completely different!! Liv Democrats and Libertarians almost have nothing in common….one party wants to increase taxation and government programs, meaning they are for MORE government control…Libertarians are for the other side of the coin…no to very little taxation and government programs, they want the government out of our lives. I really hope you’re not thinking about voting for Obama…yes they both stand for change in our country, one that means freedom and the other good bye EVERYTHING our forefathers stood for. In short going from voting for RP to BO would be like, and yes this is hyperberbile,…A Christian deciding to convert to Islam,…or visa versa, sure they have the old testament in common, but they ARE so different in their philosophy…that thier not really the same at all. If RP doesn’t get the nomination I will write the man in…voting for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil…..anyhoo, that’s just my opinion, doesn’t make it the right one I guess…..but I did like the video, it was done really well. down with the empire, restore the republic!!
Yes, many Ron Paul supporters have been up in arms about this. But let’s think about this for a moment…
Obama is generally seen as a legitimate, mainstream candidate. Ron Paul is not. So, if we look at it from the point of view of the average American (who may not know who Ron Paul is, or may think he’s a fringe crackpot like some of his most vocal advocates…), does Ron Paul stand to gain or lose from the association?
Ron Paul supporters are going to vote for Ron Paul. The fear that they’re going to suddenly switch to Obama as a result of this video is absurd. On the other hand, associating him with someone that the average American perceives as “safe” just might help him to cross over from fringe to mainstream.
Liberals always shoot themselves in foot by worrying excessively about the purity of their message instead of taking a pragmatic look at their objectives. It is disappointing to see so many libertarians making the same mistake.
Thanks for the comment.
The idea was that she felt so guilty about ripping off the Obama Girl that she couldn’t concentrate…
Great video
Another fantastic video! I really appreciate that you’re trying to broaden the support base for RP by reaching out to the Obama camp… this was intelligent decision - which maybe explains why the detractors can’t follow the logic.
Great video! It’s too bad that some of the Ron Paul supporters take you and your videos way too seriously. What did the good doctor say? That we should work hard and have fun doing this Revolution thing! That’s what our Ron Paul Girl is doing. Congrats!
Very creative video. Cool idea and, as usual, you pulled it off very skillfully. (Yeah, pun intended
Keep up the great work and keep us smiling. Revolution is hard work and we need to have some fun.

Ugh, stupid Americans.
Thank you Jed Gillen, for sharing Mona with us. (And the Asian girl’s really-hot, too! People at Digg are mistaking her ass for the Obama girl’s ass — I say all 3 are nice!) Anyway, please please please, for the sake of all mankind, if you can, tell Liv to shotgun a beer live for the crowd tomorrow, and please, oh gods of YouTube, make video of that incident somehow reach this screen!
Have a nice tea party, we’ll join you from Florida!

PS I bought 12 calendars!!!
Thanks for signing them tomorrow!!!
Yes, Kaila Yu (aka the Asian girl) is great. We definitely plan to work with her more in the future. Check out her link under special friends–
Mona & Jed,
I apologize for the couple of people who acted like jerks. Thanks for making the videos and keep on doing them. You’re right you know. If they don’t like it, there’s nothing stopping them from picking up a camera and doing their own.
Ummm, if Ron Paul doesn’t get nominated… ? This is crazy talk…
I think this was pretty good. Fun and cute.
Enjoy your videos and website. Keep up the good work. Hope to see you prosper as filmakers in the future.
The more I think about it, the more I think a reality show with those 2 would be hilarious. And very visually-compelling. I can’t wait for your next video. And was there any video of the debut of the calendar, your party, and (hopefully) a certain someone shotgunning another beer??

Thanks for all the nice comments, everybody!
It sure is good to know that at least some of Ron Paul’s supporters can handle a little joke! I mean, how can they complain? This video’s been watched by over 100,000 people so far!
Hi Mona,
Thanks for the tattoo clip, I think I’ll send it to my niece. Thanks for the Ron Paul support also, but I must make this comment about your comparison of Dr. Paul to Senator Obama. They have the most diametrically opposite platforms of any two candidates outside of the war issue. Please look into this for yourself, Obama wants to expand the power of the Fed Govt., Dr. Paul wants to give us back our freedoms that so many have died for.
Okay, first off:
Why is this comment addressed to Mona? The line you refer to was delivered by Obama Girl (Amber) and was written by me (Jed).
Let’s say you were watching Friends and you disagreed with something that the character Rachel said on the show– would you address your comment to Courteney Cox? Very odd…
Second:
It’s really annoying and frustrating that so many Ron Paul supporters have focused exclusively on the fact that the Ron Paul Girl says she might vote for Obama while ignoring the fact that the Obama Girl says she might vote for Ron Paul. The Obama Girl is tremendously famous, and we were able to get Ron Paul a semi-endorsement from her in a video that has now been seen by over 200,000 people– the vast majority of whom are not Ron Paul supporters. I happen to think that that’s pretty awesome.
I agree Mona, no reason to get upset about a little joke.
