I just wanted to throw this out there, How could Ron Paul supporters get the message across that there are thousands of us and we aren't just a small group of wacks without using the internet and without the media? I was thinking along the lines of all Ron Paul supporters doing a boycot that would effect the economy on a particular date that would make headlines across the nation and we can take credit for it! Just an idea... Dont buy gas on a certain date. It needs to be something that proves we are everywhere and it needs to be of great scale. also it needs to be something everyone can do and notice. Stuff like pulling stock would not work because not everyone has stock. But just imagine it! The news couldnt ignore it it would be everywhere! also it needs to be planned a month or two in adavance so everyone knows about it and so we can get the most people to participate. Kinda like a money bomb but it could be a MEDIA BOMB!!!! how do you think we could do this?

Maybe abandon polarity/resistance and leap into the positive?

Choose to be psychologically attracted to positive outcomes, healing, service, creation of a world of peace and prosperity..... http://www(dot)youtube(dot)com/watch?v=hB5cDLvzqQA

I think the spambot myth has been debunked already

Submitted by valleyforge on Sat, 01/12/2008 - 22:01.

The money bombs proved it, and more importantly the 30,000 people who voted for Dr. Paul, move than Guiliani or Thompson, proved that Paul supporters are broad-based. The media was also surrounded by Paul activists in NH. Even Hannity hasn't used the old spam-bot line for a while.

I think it's more important that Dr. Paul continue to hone his message and the campaign gets him more media appearances. That will raise his poll numbers and frankly, that is the only thing that will - or should - convince the media we are numerous. The recent Michigan polls are very encouraging.

Keep thinking!

Goal should be
1) get media attention
2) creative/innovative
3) peaceful
4) funny?
5) spread RP's message
6) show how may of us out there, RP supporters

#1 Goal- Count The Votes Properly

What good are all our efforts and sacrifices if we can't insure a lawful vote tabulation. Brainstorming with friends after returning to New York from New Hampshire we came up with a similar idea, but other dedicated Ron Paul Supporters beat us to the punch. I implore you to check out this website and add one more thing to your plate when trying to spread the freedom message.

We must make sure our votes are counted. The future of the republic's life and your children's lives depends on it.

I think we should have a town hall sit-in

Submitted by lynnopoly on Sat, 01/12/2008 - 21:11.

Or somewhere have a sit in, a non-violet protest to show our numbers.

I don't think there enough die hard Ron Paul fans to accomplish anything along the lines or effecting Wal-Mart, or the banks. Money bombs seem to be a great way to get attention, while also effecting the media.

I also think we should have a "Tell your friends" day. We created http://tell10friends.com to do this online, but I think the idea has legs to live online. Has every single Ron Paul supporters tell 10 people they've never told about Ron Paul. A lot of supporters don't do this and that's way he can still be laughed at by the media.

What cash?

Submitted by tamtamfreedom on Sat, 01/12/2008 - 21:09.

I don't think pulling money out of my account right now would make much difference.

I hear ya

Submitted by lynnopoly on Sat, 01/12/2008 - 21:12.

The $40 in my checking account won't get much notice.

I'm sure people would love to vote for the party that caused a bank run.

Bump - media bomb is great idea

Submitted by jurgita on Sat, 01/12/2008 - 20:57.

We need something big to get media's attention, something they can not ignore. Racist stuff will become old news very quick. Any ideas, anyone?

Boycott Wal-Mart

Submitted by laura_cf on Sat, 01/12/2008 - 20:48.

We could all boycott Wal-Mart on SuperBowl Sunday. A lot of us boycott Wal-Mart anyway since they are involved with the move toward a North American Community. SuperBowl Sunday is an easy day for everyone to remember. And it's before Super Tuesday so it will send a message to the voters. What do you think?

Hmmm... Not many RP supporters shop in our Wal-Mart

Mainly Mexicans in our community...
