What happened the last time Fox cut Paul?
Leno happened. After Nevada and SC, Paul will most likely have beaten Rudy 4 times and Thompson 3 times. It should be easy to show up Fox's bias. Heck, they were just called on it last week.
Anyway, by then a couple of candidates may have dropped out. The campaign played it right last time, let them do it again.
hello?
any follow up here?
so we do some guerrilla marketing
Guerrilla warfare is the unconventional warfare and combat with which small group combatants use mobile tactics (ambushes, raids, etc.) to combat a larger, less mobile formal army. The guerrilla army uses ambush (draw enemy forces to terrain unsuited to them) and mobility (advantage and surprise) in attacking vulnerable targets in enemy territory.

let's use our heads and get creative...
how bout you just hand out
how bout you just hand out signs by the gate for people to hold up? also you couldtrick the anouncer into saying your going to ask your gf to marry you then when they put the camera on you you could say "honey would you vote for RON PAUL!? and hold up a sign and she will say yes!!!! ha ha ha!!
Handing out signs is THE BEST IDEA
look, to begin with, it's cheap!
And get the fans in on it! y'know. appeal to their all-amarican sense of defiance of authority.
I'm tellin ya, it'll work!!!
It'll take maybe 1,000 signs to make an impact, tho. So maybe more. Crowd will be like 50,000, So one of every 50? hmm. maybe 5000 signs!
Every TEN people! ANY crowd shot will have an RP sign!!!
Shit, most people are compleately apathetic about politics, so they wom't have a reason NOT to wave the signs.
WE gotta pitch it to them as an F.U. gesture!!
Discuss.
Ron Paul supporters
at the superbowl and being noticed would be great! Also handing out some materials as well.
Any RP supporters going to
Any RP supporters going to the game get a white jersey and RP it!!! Cut out RP head and make a super slim jim!!!
Blimp
can we fly the blimp over the super bowl ?
How about this -->
The campaign air a commercial during the superbowl? (although that would cost a great deal, but would be seen by many) or is this prohibited during the superbowl?
Or... lets write to Tom Petty and see if he will do something during the halftime show. He appears like a Ron Paul supporter.... am I wrong?

advertises on Fox, i just cancelled my account
America is sick, call a doctor! Dr. Ron Paul.
How about Ron Paul Signs EVERYWHERE!
Live TV, right?
IMissLiberty
Could someone
contact HQ about this, please.
I think this is illegal!
The link is dead!
What about equal time laws?
Ron Paul can definitely sue, as can Kucinich and Hunter.
Seriously. Besides, since when was politics ever inserted into the Super Bowl? How much does one minute of air time cost? They are willing to lose MILLIONS just to screw Paul?
When is the Super Bowl?
Oh, you won't be able to get the blimp there - it is a No-Fly zone!
I may be a vegetarian, but I'll defend to the death my right to eat pork!
Pretty sure the equal time law only applies to paid advertising.
the FCC has left it upon the media to be "fair" in its treatment of the candidates as far as reporting goes. Damn it really works well doesn't it.
I read somewhere (I thought
I read somewhere (I thought it was on DailyPaul) that the NFL was banning the blimp from flying over the Superbowl. Has anyone else heard this?
it's a no-fly zone. For any aircraft.
I may be a vegetarian, but I'll defend to the death my right to eat pork!
Does this...
...really surprises you coming from Fox?
I'd suggest that the Ron Paul Blimp makes way to hover over the superbowl or around the Superbowl surely it would get a camera shot in.
NFL restricting blimp over stadiums
I thought I heard the NFL was trying to get a ban on the RP blimp flying over its’ stadiums. Isn't that public air space? Anyone else hear this? If so, we might have to boycott the super bowl.
Ever seen an F-16 intercept a blimp?
Since 9/11 areas around major events (including the Big Game) become restricted airspace.

HAH!
That's gonna kinda make them look stupid when Ron places in Nevada...
what happens if edwards and thompson are out and Paul wins Nev.
"All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent" Thomas Jefferson
you know that feeling you get...
when you read this kinda news and it feels like someone just punched you in the gut.
i dont get that feeling anymore.
the question is. how are we going to respond?
Same with me! I can barely
Same with me! I can barely muster a raised eyebrow anymore when the media shows its true colors. It's actually kind of nice, like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. After several months of being abused, I've become desensitized. They can't hurt me anymore. The only thing they continue to hurt is their own credibility. :-)

Flood All The Other Campaigns With RP Supporters with Signs
So every time they interview one of the other candidates, the Ron Paul signs are in the background. It was so great when Luntz was doing his focus group and all the Ron Paul signs were parading back and forth in the windows on the far side of the room!
Go Ron Paul!
Find a few team members that like him
..have him in their dugout or every time they are interviewed to say something..RP banners appearing in the crowds, maybe the half-time entertainment will say something about him to everyone..maybe, maybe...
How about a large section of
How about a large section of superbowl audience each holding a sign that together is a massively large Ron Paul banner? :)
Nah..I have been there.
Nah..I have been there. Tickets are $1500 and the chances of having a group like that together now is very slim..but who is doing the halftime show, do you know? If it is a band, one may be an RP supporter and he could just grab the mike and say something...?
