They kept visuals of Bernie expostulating vigorously on-screen with the sound removed while I inserting his voice saying something that had nothing to do with his impassioned speech making on-screen. As a former script writer-producer of documentary format video, the editing started to drive me slightly nuts because it should have been so much better.

I really didn't notice the bad edits. But that is only from seeing it once. To the first time viewer, I don't think it will be noticed if they are there. It seg'd fairly well from issue to issue. I think the intention is mainly to get his stance on the issues out there-and not produce a top of the line piece. Music may have been a little too hot underneath, but that's the only thing I noticed. He's on a budget ya know.

Why is the music in TV, movies, etc. so loud in the background? It makes it so difficult to hear what is being said. It is one reason I do not go to movies much anymore. I wait until I can rent the movie at home so I can use close captioning.

I'm probably just hyper sensitive to his kind of thing, but its no more costly to choose the right edit point or pull a still frame than it is to create a conflict tween what the speaker is actuAlly saying and what his voiceover says.

I wonder if it could be burned to a DVD? And set up to just repeat?

We need someone smart to tell us!

I love everything about it.

I've watched and listened to him and his platform, over and over...I never tire of hearing him speak.

I can honestly say I've never, in my life, been as interested in any other politician.

We've got to get him into the White House.

He is really a once in a life time candidate. Nobody that I can think of even comes close to his authenticity, integrity, and honesty.

I hope they can condense it for tv ads. But, I can't think of anything to remove.
