The Trolls are out again.
rpcallblitz and friends are working overtime it appears to stop the blimp.
I believe they are paid (or unpaid as it were) by other campaigns to disrupt Ron Pauls progress. If anyone says anything to them they attack back, all the while saying they want Ron Paul to succeed. This is not how Ron Paul people act.
Notice how they constantly try and create doubt and distrust about the blimp.
Previously he (rpcallblitz) worked long and hard to bring negative comments into the forum, by saying on the one hand a nice thing but then taking a twist so that Ron Paul was smeared. He did this continually. Other threads were deleted because he would not stop his negativity. We should BAN RPCALLBLITZ
Why would they work so hard to stop the blimp? Because its a geat idea and will help promote Ron Paul.
The blimp is going to be an icon for this years campaign and will be featured in photos all over the world. This blimp will cause Ron Pauls name to be one of the most well known names on the planet, In other words it will be very successful.
I love the wording including the "Ron Paul R3VOLution" The wording is being chosen by advertising professionals.
The web site shows that they are doing this right. They have retained excellent lawyers who know the political business. One wrote a book about what a fraud the elections laws are!
I salute the organizers of the blimp. They may even have one for each coast it appears.
The goal is to WIN in NH and this will help. Millions will see it. Many millions more will see it on the news. This is perfect for the TV people who will want to show the blimp every day on TV as its cool.
So please disregard our plants from other campaigns and help with the blimp.
Do not let these fools from other campaigns confuse the issue. We have a once in a lifetime chance the change things for good and get the government back into the constitution - and we should not let these few idiots stop us from our chosen tasks.
Run, Ron Paul, Run!
Help the Blimp!
Transparency finally provided
Who thought this was 100% volunteer? I sure did.
I thought I was paying for a blimp. See total wages.
We finally have the transparency that should have been given BEFORE they asked for pledges.
It's a lot of paid people to help what is really just a flying billboard.
http://www.ronpaulblimp.com/Transparency.php
Yep
Yep, given these people are going to have to leave their current jobs to do this. I'd hope they make it a point of paying for the blimp first though, because the extras and paying all their salaries (though the lawyers are going to have to be paid now) can come later as donations will come in much faster once its up in the air.
As I said already, Promise on the website a ride for the $5,000 donation and money will come in!!
Why do they have to leave their job?
The captain flies the flying billboard.
There are hundreds of volunteers who would do this for free.
Every seat has value and should be given to people to pay for them, not people who are paid to sit on them.
I've said it before
I'll say it again. Until the website promises a ride for $5,000 donation many of the previous pledges aren't going to happen.
I would never have given to "Who is Ron Paul?"
Because I think it's negative at this stage. It's weak. The first message was powerful.
What would Wolf Blitzer and other media people say?
Rnn Paul is the guy they have been interviewing for months!
It's kind of a slap in the face to them.
Unfortunately, I donated before I realised the switch in wording.
Ok
That's like the 5th time you've made a comment about the blimp fund going toward new cars for the people behind it. If you're not a car dealer trying to make a sale, drop it.
I donated. It's fine.
It's a great project. Change is good. They're responding to legal requirements, etc. We're not socialists. A little salary for them is good, also. It's reasonable. This will be a lot of work to do well. Some of these very creative and enthusiastic guys on salary is probably at least as good an investment as funding some of the Ron Paul campaign staffers.
They may be waiting for Monday to send out the email, getting the website and initial questions right first, which is the proper way to do it.
Who cares about the exact campaign message? This is not a deal breaker.
People are being pretty petty. It's not a TV spot. As long as Ron Paul's name is on the blimp, 90% of the effect will be there. People who don't know him will still have to find out about him, their interest piqued by the blimp.
Need to have unity. If this goes down in flames it also may impact adversely Dec 16th. At this point in time, any failure associated with RP will be bad for the campaign in general.
Spike in donations
They revised the refund policy = spike in donations.

These pictures of the blimp
These pictures of the blimp shows nice weather |I don't know about you but its WINTER and weather can change at any time I never saw a blimp flying around in cold weather .Since It's cold there will be no outdoor events for mass people to see it
E-mails
Send them out as we were told!
Pledging vs actual donations
Just ask Romney about the difference.
Better to get the money up front.
I've donated $25...
...of my $100 pledge, but no more until this project shows more transparency.
They have a transparency link...
They have a transparency link on www.ronpaulblimp.com so that you can see all of the expenses. I personally think they are very reasonable for such a large undertaking and it is very professional. I put my $25 pledge in and my 11 year old turned in bottles and cans for another $25 because she wants the blimp to fly.
Let's do it people...every bit helps. If you pledged donate it! If you are maxed out...donate it. I'm saved up for Dec. 16th as well, but heck...a blimp will draw attention...take some time and think that through.
================
Who is John Galt? Vote ███ ███ 2012!
What is the transparency link?
I can't see it
94% of all problems are due to SYSTEMS, not people (Edwards Deming)
Do the math guys - no chance
Do the math guys - no chance they raise the needed funds in time. 75% of the original pledges were fake.
I feel bad for the people who have donated because you will never see a blimp fly - these guys are not businessmen.
Look... this stuff in NOT HELPING AT ALL
I have my own issues with the Blimp... thats not to say I don't support it CAUSE I MOST CERTAINLY DO!!... I support the idea for sure..
You'll see I've posted in other topics about this too.. but look.. this post has zero place here really... and here is why..
Nobody... NOBODY.. has been screwed blued or tattoed ok... the folks involved in this ... in SETTING IT UP AND BRINGING IT TO FRUITION are good people..
I'd say at the very least they have earned the benifit of the doubt... so all though I am not financially supporting it myself... at the moment anyways.. I think to knock it is to knock a potential VOTE FOR DR. PAUL.. and to say what you said.. is really un-informed.. as you don't know what the folks have in mind that... again... have thought this up...worked on it.. and brought it to fruitition...
So.. UNLESS there are a NUMBER of vaild complaints from folks who have donated and are REAL.. as in.. Paul supporters who were ALREADY MAXED OUT WITH THE OFFICIAL CAMPAIGN.. and decided to participate in this and felt there was a problem... THEY WOULD BE THE ONES TO BITCH...
Not you... Not me..
Enough pessimesim and either OPTIMISIM...... or SILENCE.. think about it!!!!! I know your a supporter as am I !!!!!
Peace
How
do you know this? Did someone tell you? If so, who?
Or is this just speculation?
Once again, I question your
Once again, I question your validity. What makes you say 75% are fake?
As all my other questions to you, I don't really expect an answer because you're full of crap.
Seriously dude, why have you made it your mission to bring all the bad vibes to this? We all know how you feel about the blimp, why do you feel the need to keep on droning on about it?
Do you support RP? Do you believe in him?
That's 3 questions, please answer all of them or none.
I flagged this post as
I flagged this post as offensive. There's no need for this rhetoric.
I'm impressed - I flagged
I'm impressed - I flagged your post as well
Eh...
I hope you didn't mean mine.
I'm on your side.
Hmm..
I'm on BOTH of your side too .... But I can't flag it..
I attacked its logic, as ya'll did too... and IF its not understood... then perhaps we don't have a real Dr. Ron Paul supporter... and we have a trouble maker... thats different..
But I do hope everyone see's why.. Hey.. if you don't support it.. shud'up.. aint gonna hurt us..
AS LONG AS THE DONORS ARE MAXED OUT WITH THE CAMPAIGN!!!! It won't hurt Dr. Paul either!!!
75% has been verified -
75% has been verified - since the neo-ron's on this site like to spam Huck and Fred's site they fired back... take your medicine and enjoy it Howard.
I've never made a negative comment about Ron Paul - never will. The blimp is a waste of time, energy, and money - I will do my best to make sure all know this.
Question for you Howard - what gives you the right to question support others have of Dr. Paul. Are you attempting to say you are better?
Here is proof - Ban rpcallblitz
Look, I have been saying we should ban rpcallblitz
Here he speaks his truth - he lost his false focus it appears.
"since the neo-ron's on this site like to spam Huck and Fred's site they fired back... take your medicine and enjoy it Howard."
Here he speaks from knowledge of what other campaigns are doing and expresses glee that 'they fired-back" Is there any doubt he is a plant from another campaign?
Then he reiterates from his con man book that he will not attack Ron Paul - well his methods are a little more subtle eh? Making his comments moot.
Then he attacks Howard for Howards very reasonable question. He uses the attack to run back legitimate questions about outrageous behavior here.
Please ban rpcallblitz!
WTF?
WTF is a neo-ron?
Now I think you're just making things up, good lord man.
75% have been verified how?
75% have been verified how? Please show me the link or whatever you have verifying this.
No you haven't made a negative comment about RP that I've seen, but sheesh, everyone here knows YOUR opinion about the blimp. So at this point, you are simply derailing the project. This ties into what I asked about you being for RP; why would you derail a project that supports RP, if you support RP and you have nothing vested in the project?
I in no way have said or implied I am better. My right to question your support is due to the negativety you bring to the table when the vast amount of your posts are based on unverified information. If you do have the info, post the info or the link. This goes for a lot of what you have posted about the blimp, not just the 75% you mentioned above.
You know what, the majority of us here are here to get RP to the Whitehouse. There are a ton of projects, strategies, and such between the grassroots and official campaign that are not to everyone's liking.
Why would someone who is truly supporting Ron Paul try and derail something?
Who is Ron Paul?
"Who is Ron Paul?" is ridiculous to have on the blimp. It's kind of late in the game to be asking that question. And, nobody is going to get the Randian analogy, so it's not as cute as they think it is.
These guys r smart
Dude
these are marketing guys I talk to people every day about 10 on average they don't know ron in CT. But after hearing some of his ideas they say YEAS!
U r either a troll or just clueless, I hope the latter.
