No More Money Bombs!
Whether you want to or not, the likelihood is low of having another moneybomb day on New Years, Xmas, Every-dead-revolutionary-I-can-think-of's birthday... Like Peyton's Priceless Peptalks:"It's prolly not gonna happen."
There really just isn't that much time. (Or money left in my bank account). And now, we can sit here and complain about, or praise any media attention the Teaparty made; we must ask ourselves: is watching youtube videos helping Dr. Paul get elected?
Now is the time when we must use our passion and inspiration and use it for productive things that will help the campaign from the BOTTOM UP, not from the top-down. That privilege (or curse, imo) is left to the official campaign. They are doing what they can, and with our generosity, they will now be able to do it for much longer, and at a more far-reaching scope.
We must get back to doing what we do. We are the roots of this great tree of freedom. We must start kicking up the efforts at the local publicity level. Make twice the amount of signs you made last week, and if you made none, make even more! Meet with your meet-up groups to continue canvassing. Continue with the letter writing campaign. Nothing beats the impact of handwritten letter, from an actual person. No matter your beliefs on the OM "Blackout", we can all agree that most people read their mail, and are likely to open a handwritten letter addressed to them personally. I'd place good odds that most people would then think about Ron Paul, and at least look 'em up on the 'ol internets. And once they do that, I take even higher stock that they will become just another root in this great big tree, and join the efforts themselves. The way I see it, it's like I'm getting to vote absentee for that state! One more vote for Ron Paul!

Every stranger I meet I tell them to research Ron Paul for themselves. I hold a door open for someone on the street, I ask them if they know Ron Paul. It's as easy as that. Most people are interested if you just tell them a few facts about him. I don't even try and sell him, i just inform them. I've had quite the positive response. And I do it while I'm going about my regular day, and you can too. Now is the time.
Let it not be said that we did nothing.
Freedom is contagious. Spread it!





















I disagree
Money bombs when done right help to energize the grassroots. I believe more money will be raised with them than without them. It is going to take big time money to reach the whole "sleeping" electorate. It is unfortunate but that is the case.
Obviously there are many other activities we can do to be productive. Letter writing, sign waving, canvassing etc.

I agree
This week I received my car magnets and t-shirts from the campaign (also considered a donation). Since showing my support visibly I have located other RP supporters and been able to answer the "Who is Ron Paul?" question. Make yourself visible and people will come to you. We all know that lots of commercials may not translate into votes, but name recognition will. Make yourself into the commercial or personal endorsement you won't otherwise see (or hear) in your area.
