If I won the lottery this weekend, I'd go broke for Ron Paul
Submitted by Crabacado on Fri, 02/03/2012 - 00:00Here's what I'd do!
Rent a big ass RV Bus through the general election. Have it wrapped like Ron Paul rolls. I'd have a caravan of really cool shizz. Mobile projection screen and sound system for @RonPaulFlix and YouTube etc. Everywhere,anywhere, on demand.
I'd get with the NH Ron Paul laser guy, and we'd hook up the mother lode laser! A killer trailer rig doing walls and even clouds at night. Maybe more than one of these.
I'd pay to get Jordan Page, Sly, Aimee Allen, Joe Perry, Barry Manilow and a few other Ron Paul musicians to do a "Liberty Summer Concert Series". I'd also challenge them to come up with the ultimate Ron Paul/Liberty Anthem together (on the scale of We are the World)! I'd submit a few lines of my own.
I'd bankroll Adam Kokesh and bring him on the bus tour. Some others as well. We'd roll to every state left in the primaries/caucuses.
I would have my team of lawyers getting permits left right and center.
Huge, free beer, Ron Paul Movie Nights in cattle pastures, parking lots, campgrounds, beach bonfires, you name it. Every night, a different venue.
After the GOP Convention, depending on what happens, I would adjust accordingly.
Open Schedule at this point.
I would put it all on the line (and expect nothing in return) if I won the lottery this weekend.
AfterPoint: I would set aside enough for college for my kid (and a lil more) and I'd also buy a choice piece of property in Myrtle Beach and open a travelers Youth Hostel (this market desperately needs a good one!).
Me, wife and kid would run it in season March-November.
December-February it would be a warm home and healthy meals for 200-300 homeless people.
Thought I would share my feelings if I won the lottery this weekend. That is all.

SuperPak - Yes
Same Here.
I like the ideas about using that money for a 1/2 $Billion superpac. That would really change the game. That is what I would do with 95% of the money (the rest of it would be to buy expensive steak dinners for myself).

True, but if enough of us buy tix
the odds of a Ron Paul Supporter winning increases. We should all spend a few bucks for a chance....for Dr Paul. Imagine what a profound impact it would have for the campaign if a winner of 540 million dollars gave just 10% even? 25 million or so after everything? He's raised what? 35 mil so far? Romney at twice that.
My most outrageous..
..idea if I won it? Pay the effing GOP in every state to just keep their mouth shut and let the people decide.
More realistically, I'll pay all of the RP national delegates' expenses in Tampa. That way, everybody is present and only a few of the opponents. Romney? Nah, he wouldn't risk it.
funny that Rmoney could and we actually would
do it
It's actually a very interesting idea
when you think about it. 10's of 1000's of Dr Paul supporters buying lotto tix and increasing the odds significantly. Winners agree to spend a good chunk funding other grassroots efforts and their own. I commit to this...if...
Wonder how many people we
Wonder how many people we could get to pitch in a dollar to buy tickets....say we bought a million tickets? Surely our odds would increase...would it be worth the try.....hell just the media attention might make it worth it. No? Yes?
Truth before all else.....it is what will allow us to emerge with dignity and honor.
how much would it cost
to cover every combo?
"The two weakest arguments for any issue on the House floor are moral and constitutional"
Ron Paul
don't know, probably more than the cash payout
Just buy into the concept of increasing odds and buy a few tix
A 1/2 $Billion Dollar SuperPAC for Ron Paul
Mega Millions for the DR! Surely one of us has a chance to win.
It's a great idea
I'm just not sure how to organize it. Any ideas?
It just occured to me , what if
Some of the SuperPAC's started sending money to creative RP supporters. Imagine what we could do...
Can a RonPaul supporter win for Ron?
?
You guys all have some great ideas!
tks
If I won..
..I'll buy a lot of passenger buses, bullhorns, tents, and rolling food stands that will go from state to state, take the voters to the polls, and provide free food afterwards. Donate to RP campaign, purchase campaign slots on major local media, newspaper ads, and provide food and allowance for our foot soldiers.
Buy your Mega Millions tix
I'll end up with 10 or 20 bucks work. Small price for a chance at George Soros pwnage
Nice ideas
Yes, Feeding Freedom and Truth tour. Ron Paul Family cookbook recipes?
Pork Barrel sliders
Lobster Rolls like Ron Paul rolls
Constitution Burgers
Yes,
..my thoughts exactly :D
I Like It....
It would be great if we all had a chance to roll out our own fantasy marketing for RP.
Beside funding your pac, I would create my own pac to fund a parade of vets around the country and on TV.
"Support the Troops"
I would sponsor national debating championships with $100,000 prizes for those who could win foreign policy debates, ala RP. Maybe a reality TV show - the winner gets $250,000 salary to run a Ron Paul pac. Maybe also Ron Paul Elementary - free salary and schooling for a future RP candidate.
I would also use a few thousand dollars to participate in your parties.
Maybe we should have a lottery bomb?

I absolutely love the debate
challenge idea. That would be huge.
Wow, you make some good ones there!
That's awesome, your ideas are epic. All Ron Paul supporters should start a national lottery pool where we all promise to ShareSuperPAC $$$ with each other if we win a lottery. Think about the increased odds of winning something substantial...and sharing a good chunk of it to support the grassroots and really get it done.
BTW, I'd definitely fund you and your passion.
Retweeting for more comments
Sorry, but I thought this post would be a little more engaged.
Gonna check my tix on Tuesday
?
Still buying tix
One in a mil is all it takes
Buying a few more tix today
A lil' dreamin' never hurt anyone.
You should at least BUY A TICKET so we can have some suspense
I mean just hearing your fantasy is great and all, but you didn't even go to the store.
