Ayn Rand on Johnny Carson: make this go viral 14AUG12 & Ayn Rand Was an Illegal Immigrant 14FEB12

HERE is an expose on rep paul ryan's hero ayn rand. Share his admiration for this selfish, greedy, callous, crude and crass illegal immigrant (she was, see below and consider all the conservative ballyhoo about Pres Obama's executive order for Dreamers) with everyone you can, because the romney-ryan cabal is intent on imposing her destructive and divisive philosophy on the entire nation....
I just stumbled upon an article in Salon published today by David Haglund:
 Did You See This? Ayn Rand on Johnny Carson

In it is a two part video uploaded to YouTube by warpicachu of Johnny Carson interview Ayn Rand in depth on her philosophy.  It's amazing, the absolute kiss of death to the Ryan/Romney ticket.
She explains the core concept of her teaching, the central value, which is selfishness.

Did You See This? Ayn Rand on Johnny Carson

Ayn Rand and Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show in 1967
Ayn Rand is back in the news this week, thanks to Mitt Romney's selection of Paul Ryan as the GOP's VP nominee. As David Weigel explains elsewhere in Slate, Ryan's longtime (albeit partly disavowed) devotion to Rand could have consequences for American monetary policy if he and Romney are elected—while Rand's strident atheism may cause problems for Ryan on the campaign trail if reporters choose to bring it up.
What may get lost in this high-toned Rand discussion is just how much a part of popular culture she was in her own lifetime. Lest we forget, the YouTube user warpicachu has uploaded her long 1967 interview with Johnny Carson in two parts. Besides hearing Rand distill her philosophy into a few TV-friendly sentences, you'll also get another glimpse at late-night talk shows as they used to be. "We do like to sit down occasionally," Carson says, "and get some views of people who are important in the world today."
See the videos below the fold, and enjoy.
PART 1


PART 2


There's so much I could pull out from these videos and quote to you from what this evil woman says... but I just don't know where to begin... every comment she makes is a new ad for the Obama campaign.
Remember, Paul Ryan made Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged required reading for all his staff and interns!  What will the "values voters" say if they know just exactly what his philosophy espouses.
LET'S MAKE THIS GO VIRAL!

Ayn Rand Was an Illegal Immigrant

According to today's anti-immigration Republicans, the Russian-born novelist should have returned to Soviet tyranny. 14FEB12

NOTE, the opinion expressed about ayn rand being a great American is that of the author of this piece, included here only to show this darling of the right wing gop / tea-baggers was in fact an illegal immigrant!
Earlier this month was the birthday of Ayn Rand, the controversial philosopher and novelist, who emigrated from the Soviet Union in 1926. Regardless of what one thinks of her ideas, there is no denying that she was a great American. When the American intelligentsia was playing footsie with Soviet communism, Rand unabashedly defended liberty and individual rights, America’s core values, famously declaring: “[The] United States of America is the greatest, the noblest and, in its original founding principles, the only moral country in the history of the world.”
But this proud naturalized American, who arguably did more than any contemporary figure to restore the faith of Americans in America, might have been hounded out of the country if one of our current crop of Republican hopefuls had been president when she arrived. Why? Because Rand lied and bent every rule to gain entry into the United States.
As a vehement anti-Bolshevist, she knew that she would die waiting in line if she applied for permission to permanently relocate to America, although that’s exactly what she intended to do. Temporary tourist visas were easier to land, but only for those who could prove they didn’t plan to settle here. So what did Rand do? She committed perjury. She convinced an American visa officer that she had a fiancé waiting for her in Russia whom she intended to marry after a six-month visit with her relatives in Chicago.
But Rand instead married an American citizen in 1929, gaining a path to citizenship. According to Mimi Gladstein’s biography, Rand timed her wedding before her visa, which she had gotten extended, finally expired.
However, others doubt that Uncle Sam would have handed a three-year extension to a Russian passport holder, raising suspicions that Rand might have been—gasp!—an illegal immigrant when she got married.
