good idea. lets raise 1 million.

how about a "Revolution - A Manifesto" buying/publicity bomb?

Submitted by hautediggity on Wed, 04/02/2008 - 12:16.

i think the official release date is 4.29.08? let's spend the week not only promoting it, but getting people to buy for themselves & for others as gifts. let's push it to the nytimes best sellers list. it would be hard for the msm to ignore that.

Should we do a tax day money bomb?

Maybe not taxday..

Submitted by G Class Stat on Wed, 04/02/2008 - 12:11.

But definitely later this month. (April 27th) And why not make it a dailypaul.com money bomb? This way we get dailypaulers to donante and leave it up to them to recruit other donors. But also Im thinking of a money bomb... with a GOAL. Before it was "raise X amount to win". Notice there is a goal. Almost like a theme.

My vote to what the goal should be is.. "raise X amount to (respectfully) request Ron Paul to challenge mccain to a duel...I mean debate. Everyone would love to see that... although Im not sure how the good doc would recieve that request. I always thought that was the game plan... I mean what else does "now its down to two" mean. It measn the two need to duke it out. But, maybe RP has a different strategy.

Furthermore, (and Im skeptical of this) maybe it would be better to have an advertisement money bomb. Instead of donating to the campaign organize, focus and concentrate the money bomb towards an event or advertisement. Like hightide, or the granny march... preferrabley something better and more impactfull.

Yes ok I think the manifesto idea at the end of the month would be a good thing to promote a million dollar money bomb

As far as tax day I am going to do a chip in where we can give a present to Dr. Paul for all the taxes he has paid in the last 50 years even after working so hard to help get rid of them..

It could be presented to him at the Freedom Rally on the 15th.

Perhaps I will go.

This isn't a money bomb, but this event is happening:

Tax Day 08--here's the website: http://taxday08.com/

There's quite a few people signed up. Perhaps they could combine it with a money bomb and get e-mails our to their list. I think there are over 1,250 people signed up on that site, according to RonPaulGraphs.com

Why is it that people higher

Submitted by voterp on Wed, 04/02/2008 - 11:07.

Why is it that people higher in the campaign don't check in with Daily Paul?
Do they even know there was a money bomb? Do they care? Are they going to say anything?

I am not talking about Paul, he has enough stress I am talking about the campaign.

Peace, and good job...

I still think that Paul deserves a "gift" like flowers or something. I think he has had a bit of a rough time lately.

Why doesn't the campaign check in?

Probably because, if they communicate with us in any way that could be interpreted as giving us instructions or coordinating with us, all the money we spend, the value of the resources we use (such as our internet accounts, rooms, envelopes, ...), and the value of all the work we do comes under the campaign finance laws.

If we want to work independently, avoiding entangling Ron and ourselves in the campaign finance laws, we have to do it REALLY independently. That means we don't get anything but the public pronouncements from the campaign. And that also means the campaign workers won't be posting here.

This is 'ours'. They do what they do and so do we. We cannot expect anyone but the few DP users to be here.

You did a great job. There was so much confusion at first with the Coast to Coast thing, and then somebody wanting to make (this bomb) a gift through chip-in, and then well, on and on.

I actually was concerned that the word didn't seem to go beyond DailyPaul, because I didn't see activity promoting it anywhere else. (I am not on RP Forums, but I didn't see it there; and someone posted that Daily Dose on the HQ website didn't know about it until later in the day.)

If we do it again, it's GOT to get out around the web to all forums, meetups, all the rest.

Thanks eagle.

We've got 200 donors today and over $10,000 so far

Submitted by AK4RP2012 on Tue, 04/01/2008 - 19:16.

Given that recent days have been less than 6 donors and maybe a couple hundred dollars total, this is a money bomb of sorts: certainly less powerful than $6 million, but a good showing none the less. We just funded two more rallies, or two more trips for Ron to campaign.
