The 1 thing you can do to GUARANTEE Ron Paul WINS the nomination.
Submitted by EdSchill on Wed, 02/01/2012 - 14:21Last night proved that Ron Paul can draw 7-10% of voters without advertising or on the ground campaigning all while being BLACKEDOUT by the media. How ? HARDCORE SUPPORTERS.
So what can 7-10% percent do to GUARANTEE Ron Paul Pulls a majority and starts winning primaries ?
Make it YOUR job to bring 4 people to the polls with you. It is JUST that simple. You don't need to convince them to support Ron Paul, the gold standard or non interventionism. You just WANT their vote. EVERYONE knows 4 people they can get to vote for Paul. Sell yourself, beg, plead, bargain, barter ...take em out to dinner after. Just make sure they qualify, are registered and can participate.
How easy is this ? So easy. All I had to do was ask. On April 24th I will be taking my wife, mother in law and two next door neighbors with me to vote, then out to dinner after. I am still working on more....but if everyone did what I just did, we could easily turn 10% into 50%.
Not everyone is a political zealot, in fact most people are apathetic enough and more than happy to give you a vote they are probably going to squander anyway.
Micro manage this campaign, don't take on the world, only what you can control. PUSH, PULL OR DRAG just make sure you bring eligible voters with you AND make sure they vote for PAUL.
Empower yourself!!!

Increase Your Voting Foot Print.
Help spread the message that every Ron Paul supporter is responsible to PHYSICALLY bring 4 Apathetic qualified voters with them to their primary or caucus to vote for Ron Paul.
How about bring as many as you can get!
Just make sure they are registered GOP to vote, which the time is closing in most states. Texas is so f'd up with their redistricting tied up in court, who knows when our primary will take place.
Sorry for the minor buzzkill, but check your math
If 10 out of 100 are RP supporters, and they each get four more people onboard, you now have 50 out of 140, or about 35%, not 50%.
In that scenario we actually need to get eight other people each to reach 50% (90 out of 180), all other things remaining equal.
However... if we pull some of those people over from the neo-con side, now we're talking. And/or get one or two of the newbies to get one or two others to vote, and now we're REALLY talking!

The math doesn't matter.
The math doesn't matter. It's the commitment and the actual following through.
Or...we could all just sit home and watch the polls on TV.

Oh I heartily agree about commitment
But math is hard. And if we do it well, it reflects better on us. Lefties are often bad at math, and so yes we do need to be bad at math too sometimes to get their votes. But not this time. This time, let's be good at it. We won't offend the lefties (because I already lost them with all the math in the OP anyhow), and we'll get new and even madder props from the cool math kids and geeks and right wing bean counters and those who have avoided fluoride at all costs and have both hemispheres phunctioning thanks to a healthy pineal gland (much like the Panama canal of the cranium; "Panama Cranal"?)). (Can't we all just get a longboard?)
Piling on a non-sequitur about Tell-Lie-Vision doesn't help, but your commitment shines through like a freight train. Keep it coming brother.

The message of empowerment is what is important here.
turning 1 vote into 5 is powerful and encouraging because it puts us in the drivers seat, it gives us control of our destiny in a way watching the outcome on TV does not. This plan is absent the sort of neocon proselytizing you mention because trying to convert neocon msm warmongers is a mostly fruitless effort. Where as physically bringing 4 people to the polls effectively increases your voting footprint in a significant manner.
The best thing about this is
The best thing about this is what kind of effect it will have. Remember folks, there is a difference between begging a stranger to vote and begging a relative or a friend.
If they see you so passionate about this candidate that you are willing to drive them to the polls, then this speaks volumes about your passion and commitment. This will not go unnoticed by those that are apathetic and may, in many cases, pique the interest of some and they might become interested in why you are so passionate! Send them some videos, hand them a book....and their journey begins!
So, start on them now. Get your list together and keep on it (without being annoying)!

For Those of You Who Say....
This is illegal or Immoral I submit this to you...
This is already done in every single election and I mean EVERY single election. By a politician making promises to all of these people using government largess to fulfill them they are essentially buying votes (and using taxpayer dollars to do it not to mention).
Ron Paul isn't promising anything to anyone but to leave them alone. He isn't out making promises at the expense of taxpayers like other politicians are. Frankly the reality is this is why some people don't vote for Ron.
So to me this is a great idea and it's using our own money. Get a few friends, go vote, and buy dinner and a bear afterwords. Call it a celebration. Great Idea.
I took 4
and look what that got us in SC.. Oh wait.. diebold took them back..

I did this exact same thing. My 1 vote turned into at least 3
I got my parents, who do care about politics, but just don't have to time or internet expertise to really do their own research to go to the polls with me and vote for the Doctor.
I've also been working on my uncle and also my friend. Not sure, but that could have been another two votes.
The only bad thing is that we live in South Carolina.
On a side note, I feel embarrassed and disgraced that my state went to the Grinch. I'm not fond of Mittens, but Grinch and Frothy just make me honestly, psychically, sick.
I was listening to Frothy talk one time, and I actually felt like throwing up. I'm not exaggerating. I've never felt that disgusted at another human being before.

start making a list
Youll be suprised how many people want to be passionate about change but dont have the time or effort to sort the garbage.
4 years ago i had my brother, mother, cousin and a couple friends... Ive since added nearly all of my family and no telling how many friends. I bet i can get at least twenty voters who otherwise woulda stayed home or went the wrong way. Start keeping a list of both sure things and those you think might be open.
Dont be so insistant that you turn people off is all i say.

Hell, with people today being so unethical I bet you could buy their votes. Just find 10 eligible voters you can bribe with 5 or 10 bucks, drag them to the polling place and tell them they get their money when they show you the picture of the filled out ballot on their cell phone.

All it takes is 4 people and 3 easy steps.
Step 1: Identify 4 eligible apathetic potential voters.
Step 2: "motivate" them to vote for Paul.
Step 3: Physically take to polling place to vote for Paul.
It can be done.
I spent the last 4 years talking about Paul and his policies to at least one person each day. I am a waitress. Other then almost all of the servers and managers that voted for Paul in N.H. that day because of me talking (really Paul) I also talked 2 dems. to register as indies to vote for him. Not to mention customers also. One man and his wife who I saw maybe 8 times a year came up to me a few months before the vote this time and asked me how Paul was doing. I talked with them for a while and he told me that he was going to vote for Paul this year for me. LOL! This is how we do it. Oh, by the way I used bribery on several with homemade cookies and candies. I asked them to just vote for him in the primary and then whomever they wanted in the election. (in hopes that they would keep on listening to Paul the whole time). So bribery works too.

Exactly! Just win your precinct
"Micro manage this campaign, don't take on the world, only what you can control. PUSH, PULL OR DRAG just make sure you bring eligible voters with you AND make sure they vote for PAUL."
Exactly! Focus on winning your precinct. If every one of us did nothing else, Ron will have this in the bag.
Spread the word - big block party if Ron Paul wins this precinct. Forget everywhere else - if Ron Paul wins HERE, in that building down the street, THIS precinct - bring a dish, the bands will play free, and the beer, the beer is on me.

I am doing the same - working my precinct and my county.
Get on the delegate train.

Such a great idea...I will bribe my friends with a case of BEER for each, free food from my restaurant, and I am going to get a LIMO so we can all go to vote in style.
Can we keep this simple and amazing idea posted permanently at the top of DP?
Never be afraid to ask simple questions.
this is what we need.
guys like you willing to go all out, it will help inspire others to do the bare minimum 4 while also making it exciting and getting the word out there.
I wonder if this could become a permanent post ? Hmmm..
