Only one thing to say
http://www.annhudspeth.com/simmer/simmer_1.wav
That, and maybe go look at the video again.
He did not say this! Stop
He did not say this! Stop putting words in his mouth! Alex Jones said it, not Ron Paul!
Watch Ron's video again, he clearly states, "I'm not talking 6 months or a year here."
July 4th is a zoo in Washington, D.C. We could get a million people to show and we'd be drowned out by the festivities.
It's not a practical date...it's too late, 5 months may as well be 6, the last primary is June 3rd!
Holidays are NOT good. People have vacations planned and families make arrangements to be with one another on Memorial Day and July 4th.
They are not practical dates...they are too far away, and our voices will be diminished in Washington, D.C. if we are amongst hundreds of thousands of people out to enjoy the day...Memorial Day is a Monday, and people have to work on Tuesday. Alot of people don't even get Memorial Day off. July 4th is out of the question, it's pie in the sky politics.
Hey Now Settle Down Man

Poll seems Hokey!
The poll does not even list either of the two dates I understand Ron Paul himself suggested. Both sounded reasonable.
Shouldn't Paul and his closest advisers choose the dates for our selection? They should have better marketing knowledge, as well as busy schedules to consider as well.

Sorry, but...
1. He didn't set dates, and left it to us to choose
2. Both those weekends are HORRIBLE in DC already, and would totally dilute our impact, which IS what he said was most important.
Did you Vote???
Give It A Rest
how about Dec 31
I like April 19TH!
The start of a new Revolution
"Might does not make right"
This must be on the weekend when people are off from work
so that more people can attend. We must make it as easy for everybody as we can. Ron said not to wait too long and June is way too long from now. So around April would be best. Maybe May. But no later. It won't be too cold or too hot around that time. Also Donate to the campaign NOW!
How do we start and where do we start the March? I guess the different meetup groups can charter buses for their groups etc...
I think June 21st would be
I think June 21st would be okay, it is a Saturday but it's AFTER the final primary on June 3rd.
That's the only negative to this date.
I think April 19th gives us plenty of time to organize.
I fear by late June it will be too late, but if Huckabee keeps whooping McCain's ass it might not be too late.
June 21st also has historical value, but not like April 19th.
I have no problem with that
If Ron Paul says it it is so. I will be there with bells on. Thats all I needed to hear.Thank you.
The date is set by Paul himself
4th of July
Be in DC on the 4th or be the establishment slaves.
March on DC for Paul on the 4th of July, spread it around.

I think it should actually run from April 15th to April 19th.
The Rally should be on the 18th.
hear me out Everyone that lives two days away leaves on the 15th of April. We start this migration to DC with tax day the day that every person in this country gets robbed. This will start the movement of people to DC we drive for two days others can fly in when they wish. We hold the rally on the 18th its a friday It is a business day so our voice will be heard. On friday at midnight we have a Paul Revere cerimony to bring the Rally to a close and the next morning On April 19th We all exit DC and go back to our villages to revive the Revolution and take the message back to our cities to the warning of the coming threat of tyrrany. April 19th is a very important day in our history and it goes perfect with this movement.
The American Revolution Began
April 19, 1775
Have you heard Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem "Paul Revere's Ride"?
One if by land, two if by sea;
And I on the opposite shore will be,
Ready to ride and spread the alarm
Through every Middlesex, village and farm,
For the country folk to be up and to arm.
After looking for the signal (one lantern if the regulars - the term used for invading British soldiers - were coming by land, or two if they were coming by sea) in the Christ Church steeple, Paul Revere and other Americans rode through the dark of the night on the eve of April 19,1775, to warn the country folk of the danger to come. By using a system of signals and word-of-mouth communication (the telephone hadn't been invented yet), news that the regulars had arrived spread quickly. At Lexington Green, the regulars were met by 77 American minutemen (named "minutemen" because they could be ready for battle in a minute), and, at Concord, the regulars were forced to march back to Boston with the Americans firing on them all the way. This was the beginning of the American Revolution.
This gives everyone within two days 2 days drive to Rally Rally on the 18th and two day drive home.
April 19th also Waco & Oklahoma City Bombing
I think you're right on. I would vote for those days.
Remember that April 19 was also the Waco incident that showed a lot of people how evil and corrupt our government actually is. The Oklahoma City bombing was timed for the same day to make a point, so I don't know how that would be construed by the media.
Ask Not What Your Country Can Do For You, But What Your Country Is Doing To You.
The Only Thing We Have To Fear, Is Government Itself.
Asking people to sacrifice 5
Asking people to sacrifice 5 days is a bit much.
April 15th through the 19th would be ideal, but it's not practical
I think the 19th is practical, and within what Ron said himself, "I'm not talking six months or a year."
He also mentioned July 4th
He also mentioned July 4th on the radio today.
The logistics of having this in April makes it impossible. Anyone that says otherwise has never worked in group logistics or supply.
Now, if people want to march on Washington, all spontaneous and have no toilets, no water and no organization, that can be arranged. Have the March in April.
"The revolution doesn't use port-a-pottys, the revolution will shit in the streets!"
June 7th.
June 7th.
This will be after the release of Dr. Paul's new book (April), and I believe this book will give us widespread momentum going into the march in DC.
He just said it!!!!! "IM
He just said it!!!!! "IM NOT TALKING ABOUT SIX MONTHS OR A YEAR"
WELL if that's the case
July 4th is 5 months away! It may as well be six months, which is exactly what Ron said NOT to wait for.
The $10 Millon March on Washington
Whatever the date may be, I will be there, with my girlfriend and at least 2 of our friends, and maybe my brother. But...I think we need a MoneyBomb
that is not disarmed before the march. We need morale. Ron Paul needs money. The MoneyBomb solves both. We need to unite our power with our presence. Donate and March. Set the date, send the money.
Bring Ron Paul Back !
May 11th... isn't that the
May 11th... isn't that the day RealID becomes law?

PLEASE ADD APRIL 19 TO THE POLL!!!
several people have asked you nicely several times now

Done
I added it, and if you voted previously for none because you wanted April 19, please re-vote
You should reset the poll to
You should reset the poll to zero and start over again with April 19th included.
I think that would be most fair.
Thank you

Have you voted yet?
461 votes and counting - have you expressed your preference??
Just to reiterate - "something somebody said they heard on AJ's show" is no way to make this decision. And until Dr. Paul posts an official release from HQ announcing July 4, we MUST assume it is not a workable date - too much already going on in DC and too easy to be lost in the holiday crowd of red, white, and blue flag waving sheeple.
I voted. I didn't choose any of the dates.
If Dr. Paul suggested July 4, I think that's what we should plan for.
July 4 is a Friday and it would allow for the trip and march to happen over a long weekend.
Nice day
But I think that may be too late. RP said within 3-4 months. I wouldn't want to disobey an order. Especially from Ron Paul :)

A very simple, and well made point. Thank you, nathalja
Monday through Friday suck for the majority of working Americans. That's why we call it "the work week."
Please add April 19th. A lot
Please add April 19th. A lot of your dates are too late to help Ron Paul in states that still have primaries. Like my state of NM.
