March on D.C. PLUS 11 other accessible (and significant!) cities

Ok, so here are the real dilemmas: (I don't consider the date to be much of a problem once HQ gets behind one over another)
1. Some/many may not be able to make it to Washington D.C.
2. Fears abound that state capitol marches wouldn't be that effective as they would be small in number.
My solution? Simple.
Protest a small number of important areas so that everyone can make it to their closest event, but focus on getting the most people possible to D.C. first and foremost. I was originally going to say 5 or 6 areas would suffice, but then I thought of an even better idea. The Federal Reserve system has major branches in 12 areas... what better cities to showcase our angst (for those of you in area 5, it'd be better to go to D.C. [Board of Governors zone] than Richmond, obviously)?
Anyone else's thoughts on this? It provides a simple solution to the main two points above AND is symbolic of our monetary crisis, which I doubt many of Dr. Paul's backers would argue against.

I think we have to sacrifice to make Dr. Paul's vision a reality. He wants a march on D.C. We give him a march on D.C. We can make this happen.
