C4L Events Coordinator Answers Your Questions about the Rally for the Republic

I have been doing a similar thread on RP Forums that has proven to be popular and very helpful to both the readers and to the C4L as we seek feedback on the rally, the organization, and the mission moving forward.
So when Michael asked me if I would be willing to do an update/Q&A thread for Daily Paul, I jumped at the opportunity. So ask and I will, when propriety or necessity allow me, answer your questions fully. When, for any reason, I can't answer a question, I will tell you that as well. Thanks to everyone for your continuing commitment to Dr. Paul, the C4L, and the freedom movement.

Thank you Don...
and everyone else involved for a great Rally! After watching the neocon snorefest coronation I realized how truly privileged to witness 12,000 freedom lovers uniting in a common cause.
Great job!
Video
Will the Campaign for Liberty be capturing their own video of the day's events? Does the Target Center offer capabilities for quality video capture? This is a historic moment and all the speeches should be made available on DVD to patriots that aren't able to attend for whatever reason. IMHO, you can't count on any MSM to record or broadcast a factual representation of the excitement soon to be unleashed. For Freedom, Prosperity, and Peace— let the r3volution commence.

Don, What kind of advertising is being done

Do you have a need for volunteers at the Rally?

Yes, I think they do
I am volunteering for most of the day, except I made it clear I want to be in my seat and listen to all the speeches. They had no problem with that at all. I left a message with Marianne Stebbins, Logistics Coordinator to see what they still need. Feel free to contact me too.

I hope the Rally sells-out,
I hope the Rally sells-out, but is that realistically going to happen? I was worried before, now I'm getting more worried...If we don't sell the place out the MSM is going to jump all over that fact to make the movement seem illegitimate...
Hey Don:
Once again thanks for being here and answering all our questions. Could give us a general overview of the expenses for the Rally now that the performers have been announced? I just got an email from the campaign saying that this was going to be a million dollar event. I was just wondering if you could give us an overview of the really big ones.
Thanks.
Don
I'm hearing different things. Is the Rally going to be televised on C-Span2?

Any YouTube video segment at the rally on a Big Screen?
Will there be approx. 15-20 min YouTube segment of a videos to show at the Rally to get us fired up and remind us of why we joined this movement. Just an idea. We want the crowd even more fired up and inspired to keep the movement going. Here are a few that I like:

I arrive in Minneapolis on Sunday and will be working with the technical team to determine what, when and how to integrate some of this material in the program. There will be a 12 minute video that we produced as part of the official C4L roll-out at the event
I hope there is also some
I hope there is also some music to pump us up. Like a NFL stadium during a big game. I'm not talking about the musical acts, I'm talking about there being no down or dead moments in between speakers or anything. I know RP is not a flashy type, but we need to sell and market ourselves baby! Pump up the volume to get us fired up. I missed this when I went to hear him speak. we created our own cheers and excitement, but some music and lights and video would have been great.
Great...!!!
Be sure to attach some moving music to stir up emotions. Music does things, good things to people. I can't wait to see what you and those working with you, put together!!!
In Liberty,
Fellow Patriot

Willie Nelson is a liberal.
I would hope he wouldn't be invited. I couldn't see him supporting Dr. Paul regardless. Dr. Paul doesn't reflect his overall views.

Don't blame me if there's no voice for liberty opposing McCain and Obama in the Presidential debates. I donated to Ron Paul Libertarian, Bob Barr's campaign.

he will perform at the DNC.
Wonder if Arlo Guthrie will be there. That will be something!
Nope. He will not.

Thank you, Don!
About ten days ago, I asked if you could set up a meeting with Dr Paul and the national delegates prior to the convention. You came through for us, and the delegates I've been in touch with really appreciate it. I look forward to meeting you in MSP!

I am glad we were able to make this happen. I certainly agreed with the need to do so.
Lack of support.
Hi Don,
I thought you should know that my request to DH at C4L resulted in no help. I had requested emailing of ticketed rally attendees on the N.E. charter bus route. About 380 people as of the 9th when I made the request.
The bus is now dead due to lack of ticket sales. I am dissapointed and so are those who were looking forward to riding with 50 like minded activists.
It is this lack of initiative on the part of C4L/R4R that makes me wonder how the "grass roots" can succeed on a national level.
Thank you for you time.

I received email
about ronvoys today. So I would not call that no support, if I received one...many others must have received as well.
