Update: I just bought an ad for Ron Paul in my local paper for the next 4 weeks!

I just put an ad in my local paper for 4 weeks for Ron Paul! It says " Democrats support Ron Paul! Vote in the January 21st SC Republican Primary, as it is open and cast your vote for Ron Paul!"

UPDATE: I wanted to thank everyone at Ron Paul Forums and the Daily Paul for helping me learn from my mistake. I should have asked you all first and then put this ad in the paper. This is what I did. I went back up to the news paper and I am having 4 ads, one of these for every week for the next for weeks.

January 21st Primary is Open to all voters; Republicans, Democrats and Independents. Please, support and vote for Ron Paul 2012.

Interesting idea. We could

Interesting idea. We could all buy Classifieds that say, "HELP WANTED, President who follows the Constitution", etc.

Support freedom and liberty candidates in 2012... Ron Paul... Gary Johnson...

YEP

This is great. I still say

This is great. I still say you should have used radio. Cheaper, more effective. But I'll let it slide this time haha

What Paper did you use??

A fantastic way to reach those who are not connected to

internet and STILL looking for a principled pro-peace / pro-civil liberties presidential candidate.

Thanks for an inspiring post, Patriot1!

awesome

awesome!

unfortunately, we live in a closed primary state (NY) so we are barely bothering w/ any democrats right now. but wherever you are, that is awesome of you & worth every cent!

Congrats on helping!

But I hope something like this does not lead new republican folks to believe Ron is some kind of liberal. It's great to pull in Democratic votes, but not if it costs more Republican votes. I hope you're in a heavily Democratic area. Not trying to knock you or anything.

Good man!

Way to go, thats exactly the kind of support we need for Dr. Paul!

Post Some Actual Photo

Post and share some actual photo so everyone will get inspired. Good Good Good Man!!! Ron Paul for President!

Ron Paul is Concerned About Issues, Not Political leanings...

The message is what is important, not political squabblings.

Great Idea

Wish Wisconsin let us have a Caucus here so I could help Dr. Paul win the Primary. Great idea about the newspaper ad though. Could of been worded better but you have a big heart. As do so many other Ron Paul supporters. RONPAUL2012!

You should add at the end

frases like: Learn more at wwww.dailypaul.com or bluedemocrats.com ( i dont know if there is such a website, just an example)
Interested people should have somewhere to go to learn more.
Appeal to emotions.

Are You Against the Wars? Vote Ron Paul. Learn More at wwww....
Are You Against the Bailouts of 1%? Defeat Them. Learn More at www.bluedemocrats....

Appeal to Emotions and Give Them the Source of Education.
Use the Fonts the Way I Use Them!
Use Questions and Questions Marks and Exclamations!
This is direct marketing 101.
You can give them a phone number to contact to talk about it. Yours, if you want or campaign's.
Good Job Patriot1.

would suggest endless wars, or preemptive wars, or undeclared

wars. just wars makes it sound like any and all wars.

Nice going Patriot1 !!

"If you want something you've never had before, you have to do something you've never done before." Debra Medina

It's BlueRepublican.org

You might not of even had to

You might not of even had to advertise. I've got a feeling democrats are going to want to participate if they can to shape the primary. Now since the msm has trained everyone to think Ron Paul can't win, democrats as a joke may vote for Ron Paul. Little do they know what sort of beast will be let loose. Dems are going to be bored with no primary and the possibility their socialist leader ousted. They have nothing better to do in the dead of winter. I think they believe that obama's teleprompter skills will overwhelm Paul's sincerity. Boy are they mistaken. I think I'm right on this one. I'm independent and I'll sometimes vote just out of spite.

I agree with that assessment.

I have always thought that this is possibility I want to hope for.
There is one thing I disagree with you.
Over time they will be happy they did that and those who will do it, they will be bragging about it and be proud of it. And will learn the truth, because they will pay attention to him.

Use the "Blue Republican" name

This is why the term Blue Republican was invented...

So that we can avoid using the old words that trigger the walls in people's minds and divide us. The name matters a lot. It helps you avoid having to alienate some while persuading others.

Consider also using some of the ideas in

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robin-koerner/ron-paul-conserv...

And when Romney came along

And when Romney came along the term pink republican was coined.

How about:

voting for obama? got nothing to do this winter? I triple dog dare you to vote for Ron Paul just to tick off Bill O'Reilly..oh come on, what afraid Paul will crush obama?

:D

A slight breach of etiquette. . .

. . . going straight to the triple dog dare without doing the double dog dare first.

Try...

No More Bailouts - End The Wars

Keep it real simple and highlight Ron Paul's best points.

LIBERATE THE STATES!

Personally I'm a fan of the phrasing "liberate the states". I wish somebody would use it! :)

Ugh

He's right - "Democrats Support Ron Paul!" immediately goes negative in the mind of the hardcore neocon. Think Hannity crowd.

Instead it should be something like "Democrat? Like Ron Paul? Go register blah blah"

And make sure you emphasize WHY they should support him. Wars, etc.

Rock on though, it's awesome you're doing this!
