I don't know how to start it, but I was thinking of it, so we are halfway there. We need an ongoing moneybomb for people who want to be delegates but cannot afford plane tickets, etc.. Can we get this going now, it needs to start now and people need to know about it if they are on the fence but don't have the funds. Let's get this going like we did in 08, like yesterday and build up the fund.

this is a VERY good idea.

I was just creating a thread for this idea, but I will BUMP this one instead!!!
I suppose it would all have to be pledges only, or who would hold the funds?
we need these fine people to KNOW we will cover them.

it cost money to be a delegate. I haven't been elected yet, not quite sure how it will pan out in my state. I can come up with the money for the initial cost. Maybe the gas money (won't fly) to get to a national but hotel rooms might be a little tricky.

Anyone know how much all this costs? Need to plan ahead.

I am not sure if it costs money to become a delegate

but we could all pitch in enough to supply hotel rooms and sort. We could maybe book an entire hotel and get a discounted rate if we got enough people on board on this. I am sure supporters would not mind being cramped up in a hotel room for an evening. We need to help people like you who can go, but cannot afford a room. Let's see if this post takes off and we can get on this. Keep up the great work.

the same thing a while back. I believe these delegates need to be compensated by us the supporters. They are right now the most important commodity this campaign has. This would go a long way towards hotel rooms, what they would get paid day to day normally, and overall to show our support for there support.
