Make Ron Paul's Picture Larger
The add has a big picture of all the founding fathers but there is just a little tiny one of Ron Paul.
*edit- I see that the updated list says this has been changed
A growing ad venture
This is the guy:

Could it be a coincidence that the first big bucks come from someone working in "the world of opportunities to invest in small growing companies" as his partnership firm puts it?
How very appropriate: this is a growing venture that won't stop growing.
Updates to the ad text
Lawrence (the person paying for the ad) just wrote that there are some changes to the ad... Here is a link to the updates: http://tinyurl.com/2kox29
Good change
This change sounds good: "we do not speak for the Founders. we speak for the people."
Because I've noticed it rubs people the wrong way.
You don't have to be super
You don't have to be super rich. If you have - or are going to - contribute the full $2300 to the campaign, you can also place ads in your local, or small town paper.
I ran a 3 column wide by 5 column inches - a 3x5 - for 4 days prior to Nov 5th, for $594. A 2x2 ad for our MeetUp group runs $48.40; and a 1x1 for the MeetUp group runs $12.10. You can get even better rates for Supplements, Greensheets, etc.

Idea
This newspaper ad has sparked an idea in me.
Being that Tea Party 07' will bring a lot of attention on the Ron Paul campaign, what can we do to capitalize on this at the moment when attention is greatest?
I propose we consider a Media Blitz idea. That is, a coordinated effort utilizing multiple mediums to simultaneously spread the message of Dr Paul. If we do it right, we can perhaps get Dr. Paul's name recognition to skyrocket.
1.) Television:
News networks such as CNN and MSNBC are already watching the progress of Tea Party activities, so a successful fundraiser will cement their involvement in the Blitz.
2.) Newspapers and Magazines:
Perhaps a separate fundraiser can be set up (one which is not directly involved with the official campaign) that raises money for printed advertisements. These advertisements should be concentrated in early primary states (such as local papers) and national publications in the days immediately preceding and following the Tea Party.
3.) Radio ads:
With the official campaign already running ads, perhaps grassroot support can add to this area in the days around the Tea Party. This isn't limited to independently funded advertisements. Supporters can also flood into radio shows, call music stations with song requests for Ron Paul, and generally just get the word out.
4.) Traditional Activism:
Being that the Tea Party also includes normal activities, this should be self-explanatory. If we can turn out in volumes, we may be able to get more News coverage and aid all the other media operations. Not only that, but things like flyers, billboards, and slim jims, will hit the target with local areas and increase supporters.
Anyone think this is possible? Ideas?
5)
Start a search engine marketing campaign buying all of the candidates names in IA and NH...So when searchers type in "Mitt Romney" etc...then get a Ron Paul ad...
Romney and McCain do this...
Here are the results of this from the McCain campaign...........

Bill of Rights
Every effort should be made to raise people's consciousness of the importance of the Bill of Rights and its defence during the 15th of December, following that by the Tea Party money bomb on the 16th.
Don't lose sight of the essential, friends. Remember the Bill of Rights! It's no use having it on paper if you don't have it in the hearts and minds of the People!
Bill of Rights
I hate to be critical when a positive momentum is building, but the Bill of Rights as a fundraising day would be impossible to spin in any way but positive. People will be questioning the history of the Boston Tea Party like never before...and the answers will be disappointing. It wasn't the story book event of patriotism we learned about in elementary school.
The Bill of Rights, however, are pristine in their glory. I wish we had put our energy behind Dec 15 for Bill of Rights day so that people would be asking, "What's so important about amendment #3?" and so forth.
As a community of Ron Paul supporters, we really should do something monumental to pay respect to the Bill of Rights on Dec 15.
Bill of Rights
The two events should be combined, but it's important that people start reacting loud and clear to what is being taken away from them.
Sunday the 16th is on and is ideal for the fund-raising under the Boston Tea Party, no doubt about that.
But the out-reaching effort leading up to the partying should strive to build a stronger consciousness among the clueless of the 10 Amendments and what has been happening to them lately (or maybe for a much longer time than we care to remember).
Some sort of big Bill of Rights event should be devised for the 15th, as you suggest, in preparation of the day after, so to speak.
A personal note if I may: I live in Europe submerged by the "Government shall provide you with a bunch of rights" variety of hypocritical rubbish that allows for censorship of the media (and indeed of the Internet), as well as political jailing for thought-crime, and I know the difference the other variety of rights makes.
I often quote Stalin's 1936 Constitution of the USSR where it says something complicated like "the Government shall provide publishers their right to have printing presses and allowances of paper." How nice. Sounds like the "many rights, lots of exceptions" parts of the new European Constitutional Treaty that will be imposed on 27 countries without a popular vote.
But give me rather "Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or of the press" anytime, if you please. And without that, my friends of the good old U. S. of A., it's goodbye to Internet freedom for the whole World.
Ideas
We should try to give a real world face to the 16th December event.
1) What about holding house/tea party on the 16th? We have 1000s of meetup groups what if they all meet for a house party on that day? Good way to recruit new people too.
2) We could have a picture mosaic with "tea party 07" banner in all 50 states + DC in front of well known building or other characteristic of that State. This could be eeasily set as an account on flickr with a link on the official tea party website.
Even Better... lets throw
Even Better... lets throw "tea" off a boat...
using something else in the place of tea to modernize it would also be acceptable.
We should do this in a couple biggish cities and get some media attn.

So the small group of spammers bought a USA Today full page ad.
Truly inspiring
I never vote in my own country's national or european elections (I'm tired of censors, thieves and warmongering hypocrites), and unfortunately I won't be able to vote in yours either.
But what a truly inspiring spectacle all of you are for the whole of Europe! May you succeed in again making your country a beacon of liberty for the World to follow!
It's happening everywhere...
I get an online subscription to the student newspaper at the Univ. or Arkansas, and just this Monday it pops on my screen, and guess what was front page news......"Students Rock for Ron Paul!" Seems like some musical groups organized a free concert and forum for speakers highlighting the Ron Paul Freedom messege, and they were bold enough to even allow anyone their opinion (can you say: fair and balanced?). They also had free food, so you know the attendence was good. If we can only blast through the MasterMediaBlackout.................the campaign ought to be finding ways to expose this abuse in a subtle and intelligent way. Also, we have some very eager beavers on college campuses Nationwide.............we need to harness their energy before Barak does ( I don't think anyone else can). Attack, and show no mercy!
