God bless you J D and your family this is a wonderful story and a good example for all the people it mirrors my life in Peru before I came to the USA !
I would like to remind people who are saying he flipped over night his flip was over the course of about five years and just remember Ronald was extremely liberal (from a conservative perspective) back in 1940s and 50s and wasn't Republican till 1962
He is an honest person. Now I respect him also as a political candidate. He is trying to be fair in his reflections on his own life and the experiences of people, beyond the stereotypes and noise in our society today. Wish he just didn't join up with Trump though. He is a fine political representative anyhow
I tried to find the movie on UA-cam. What I found was a retelling of the events of the story but more importantly was a disclaimer in the beginning that the story was fiction and was created in the imagination of the author and bares no resemblance to persons or events. However people and this show call it a memoir?.
Interesting how the name hillbilly came about this group of protestant scots irish people who supported William of Orange in the war between 2 kingdoms in the 1680s
@@LewisJohnsonIII You mean most Republicans, I think. Most folks obviously have nothing good to say about someone willingly associated with Donald Trump.
I didn't read the book, but watched the Netflix movie a few years ago. I really don't remember much about it other than at the end I thought this guy is an a-hole.
JD seems like a good kid with a rough past but needs to see red flags from father figures in his life that he looks up to. Sadly the father figure in his life will take advantage of him for his own gain and will leave him standing out in the rain

It's not certain what you meant by your comment, but it does look like you're taking Vance's side. I don't know shit about Vance, and didn't even know about him until the Trump announcement.

Look, I'm not trying to start shit, but I'm not sure we should be backing Vance right after the announcement. After hearing that he is a Marine and said what he did about Trump years ago, that pissed me off! Made it sound like he joined after 9/11 for political brownie points! Just like Tulsi Gabbard did. I've hated her from day one, but some have latched onto here. Tulsi could have joined before 9/11, but waited a few years, until it was politically expedient for her.

Really? A child should give up their childhood so they can act like the adult? Seems you haven’t read his book. Who would ever expect a child to be the supporting “adult” to a drug addicted adult dragging strangers into his life.
J. D. Vance is one of President's Trump's greatest political blunders, and the way things are shaking out, it could play a major role in President Trump losing an otherwise easy contest, by the greatest margin in the history of our nation.
That's not true. It's a good, solid choice for many reasons. He's normal, and will be viewed by many as dependable. He plays well in the blue collar/rust belt. He's from the Senate, so will be instrumental in working with Senate Republicans and Congressmen to pass important legislation. Those saying he's a "bad pick" are sorely mistaken.
@@bizzwoofer I think the reason people are saying he's a 'bad pick' is because he doesn't broaden Trump's appeal to immigrants, black people, women, or LGBT+ groups, or people that prioritize the needs of these groups. Whereas now the opponent is a prospective first female President, something many Americans have been looking forward to for a long time.
@@bizzwoofer It is true. J. D. Vance represents President Trump cashing in, instead of him choosing Tulsi Gabbard who would have been him trying to unite our nation, and taking the path toward having a fair distribution of our nation's unlimited wealth. Now, he could lose everything.

To bad J.D. wasnt the same man in as little as three years ago. Flipped in line faster than DEsintass. Like overnight. 🙃
You misspelled “Kamalalalala.”
There was a ghost author. He didn’t write the book
J. D. Vance is a perfect example of how to pull yourself up by your bootstraps. His story is such a positive example.

I imagine it's as much exploitation lit as a lot of others with 'Hillnilly' in the title.
I bought this book. I only read a few chapters. It was insulting. Vance is nothing but a carpetbagger.
