Video Trailer From "The Undefeated": Daughter.Wife. Mother.Warrior.


The Undefeated Teaser Trailer from Dain Valverde on Vimeo.

By Gary P Jackson

Watching this preview brings a tear to my eyes. The kind of tears when you experience a championship win, or watch an inspiring movie. The kind of tears when you are inspired. This new teaser from the movie The Undefeated is just that powerful, and a small look at how the entire movie will effect you.

In this clip you will see Tammy Bruce, Kate Obenshain, Sonnie Johnson, former Palin staffer Meg Stapleton, Mark Levin, and Andrew Breitbart. As you will see, the "warrior part of this segment in the movie has to do with how Sarah took on the highly corrupt Alaska Republican Party, including the self named Corrupt Bastards Club. [These Bastards proudly wore caps with "CBC emblazoned on them!] She also took on Big Oil and as Meg Stapleton has said, actually starred down a top oil executive in the airport once, when he told her she didn't know who she was messing with!

As we've said before, this is a must see film. If you are already a strong supporter of Sarah's, this will only re-affirm why you support her in the first place. If you're on the fence, this movie should change your mind. Even if you don't care for Sarah, something tells me going to the movie may cure you of that. Sarah Palin is a woman of strong character and convictions. Someone who everyone should respect, even her foes.

Andrew Breitbart wrote this today at his Big Government website:

The much anticipated Sarah Palin documentary by filmmaker Steve Bannon comes out in theaters next Friday, July 15th. People can now see the trailer for the first time. I’ve now seen the film three times and one thing that stands out is how Sarah Palin has always been on the offensive and refuses to apologize for who she is. Subsequently, there are tens of millions of Americans who not only relate to her, but her ballsyness contrasts more with the Republican Party than the Democratic Party. If Sarah Palin doesn’t run for the Presidency, someone in the Republican Party should take note on what real leadership looks like.

Democrats who watch this will see somebody they wish they had on their side—and they did once, in Alaska. Governor Palin stood up to the deservedly vilified ExxonMobil whose criminal misconduct with the Exxon Valdez was exacerbated with years and years of legal wrangling and deep-seated corruption that Governor Palin took on directly. Bannon’s movie is not a woe-is-her exercise in victimology; it’s a jarring look at how entrenched politicians and entrenched media can distort reality to maintain the status quo.

I have built a brand and a mission based upon pointing out media distortion and lies. I have never seen a greater disparity between the media Sarah Palin and the real one. Mainstream media types who have seen this movie are admitting as much but claim that it’s Sarah Palin who drastically changed into a completely different person. No, this was a manufactured Palin, manufactured to destroy her in the pursuit of protecting Barack Obama.

Rebels of all stripes who come to this film with open eyes will be inspired by a daughter, a wife, a mother, and a warrior who took on the system and won.

I couldn't agree with Andrew more. The Undefeated premiers in theaters nationwide on July 15. Click here to get tickets to a theater near you. This is not a movie you want to miss.

Andrew Breitbart At RightOnline


By Gary P Jackson

Andrew Breitbart is one of my heroes, and proof positive, that with little more than determination, anyone can accomplish pretty much anything.

This is a wonderful speech by Breitbart at the RightOnline conference this weekend. In his usually witty manner, Andrew takes us from his days as a "typical shallow Hollywood liberal" to one of Conservatism's greatest champions.

You'll want to bookmark this and watch it over and over again.

Breitbart: Sarah Palin 'Gets' Pop Culture


By Gary P Jackson


Jason Mattera, editor of Human Events, shares parts of his interview with Conservative media giant, Andrew Breitbart. Here Breitbart discusses how Sarah Palin, unlike the rest of the GOP, understands how today's pop culture influences everything, including politics, and how to use it.


In fact, not only does Andrew Breitbart think that Palin’s the only GOP candidate to understand how culture influences politics (not vice versa), but he believes that that’s why the mainstream media targeted the former Alaska governor. "They want to destroy her," he told us, "because they [media] recognize that she has a transcendent pop culture factor."


Here’s Part Three of our interview with the author of the brand-new book, Righteous Indignation: Excuse Me While I Save the World, in which he discusses what makes Palin so appealing, and why establishment Republicans should take notice.


Jason and Andrew, while discussing other presidents who "got" pop culture, left one former President out. Richard Nixon understood the power of culture, and famously appeared on the hip, and very edgy show [for it's day] Laugh-In, where he said "Sock it to me!(?)" one of the hip phrases of the day. It was remarkable because he came off as "the man" TRYING to be hip, but it worked. People liked Nixon for it.


I think normal people Sarah Palin's age [and mine] are quite comfortable with pop culture, and take it for granted.

People born in the late 50's, early 60s, who came of age in the 1970s and 1980s were exposed to a different world than our elders. Our culture was more media driven. Not to mean it was all shallow, or superficial, it's just we were used to more media exposure from a variety of sources, than our parents, and frankly, to most of us, it just "was". It had always been with us, so it didn't seem out of place.


My parents, and their contemporaries could, and would, quote Will Rogers and Mark Twain, among others. That was their "pop culture." People my age quote classic lines from Caddyshack, Animal House, and Saturday Night Live! It is what it is.


The Republican establishment has so insulated itself from the real world, by embracing the Washington Beltway, are totally clueless. They have forgotten what the real world is like, and they are so set in their ways, they'll never embrace the new world.


This, by the way, is what happens when one of the GOP establishment tries to act hip. If that's not pathetic enough, it just so happens that was a Martin Luther King Day rally in Jacksonville, Florida in 2008! Kids, and establishment Republican presidential wannabees, don't try this at home!


Mattera and Breitbart also discuss Katie Couric, and her fall from grace, after driving CBS' already dismal evening news ratings straight into the ground:


Speaking of Sarah Palin, her nemesis during the ’08 campaign was Katie Couric, who was not really trying give American voters information about this possible vice president, but was instead out to humiliate her.


Palin got the last laugh, Breitbart says, when CBS dismissed Couric for her abysmal ratings. "When I watch Katie Couric lose her job, that is a victory in this battle, because that person has manipulated media in the name of objectivity to take people down."


Breitbart also discusses the ascendancy of citizen journalism, and alternative Conservative media, as well as where the future will take us.
