This is quite interesting, it seems there a quite a few states that have had little to no advertising from the "official" campaign
So far, New Mexico has had no advertising for Ron Paul at all,...no tv ads, no radio, nothing.
Please let us know if your state has been neglected by the official campaign as New Mexico has. I have much respect for the New Mexico Ron Paul grassroots supporters , who are single handedly trying to get the word out on Ron Paul, with no help from the official campaign (which will show when we have our primary)
I know some of you will say,...oh your primary is not for a few months,...well, keep that in mind when I tell you that I have seen TV ads already run for Hillary, Obama, Huck, and McCain.
Still waiting for the campaign to help us grassroots supporters out,...tv ads, radio ads,...do something HQ!!!

It looks like they are waiting this house seat out. If they went out and spent the 6 million it would be hard to replace. After he wins his seat the upcoming states will get very interesting with the HQ's full support. It will probably be his best chance to pick off a state.
RP knows the deal with MSM
Ron Paul knows that the only reason the MSM supports the other candidates with excessive coverage is because they spend millions of fiat dollars advertising with them. Ron Paul will not take part in this. It goes against his core beliefs. Period. He needs his campaign funds in other areas. It is up to us to spread his message. He will not take our donations and give it directly to the monster he is trying to slay. That is why there aren't more ads. He is a true patriot, not just talking the talk. To give our hard earned money to these crooks and help to further their empire would smack of hypocrisy. It's just too bad that most people get their info from the very entity trying to surpress them.

Tell You The Truth -- I Don't Know
Vote RON PAUL 2008
____________
I have satellite television and generally watch HBO, STARS, some CNN, a few other channels (The Daily Show, and some others) -- But haven't seen any RON PAUL advertisements on any of those. At the same time, I haven't seen any for the other candidates either.
I do have XM radio (in the car) and heard a couple of months back (two or three times) a nice supportive RON PAUL for President advertisement there // while listening to the top hits of the '50.
-- Would like to see them everywhere.
YOU are the campaign
Help yourself out - it is not about Dr. Paul -
Ask not what Dr. Paul can do for you, but what can you do for yourself.
Please don't slam "shutdownthefed"
I am from New Mexico and have seen Obama, Hillary, & McCain but no Ron Paul commercials. I agree, the grassroots support here is great, but a little help from headquarters is much needed and would be greatly appreciated!
The majority of our success....
has been grass roots (money bombs-canvassing-donating). We do not rely on headquarters to wipe our butts. The good Dr. has over $6,000,000 in the bank. It's a long way until November. He needed (needs) to secure his congressional seat, and then continue his presidential focus. It's not even March yet, and you're ready to give up. By the way, this is a forum, and we can slam anyone we want. Including those that proclaim to be supporting Dr. Paul (but are really criticizing). I will continue to donate. I have set aside vacation time from work to go to the convention, and will support the good Dr. and his beliefs until my last breath of life. McCain will self implode, and Huckabee will try and continue to mimick Dr. Paul. It's the economy stupid, and no one can hold a candle to Dr. Paul on the economy. It's all about the delegates people.
I didn't just become an Oregon delegate....
to listen to you whine and waive the white flag. Bye!
In California
I have heard many radio ads on talk radio AM in the SF bay area.
No TV though.
Ill support Ron and his message forever.
Please go back to supporting McHuckabee.
we don't need your negativity here.
if you need grassroots ads let us know
if you need grass roots ads let us know or donate to vietnam vets against mccain and ask them to put their ads in your state
I have seen a couple here in Texas, but they
are the older ads...not really the hard-hitting ones that I had hoped to see.
I have been
Calling into the 14th district trying to id voters. I am in NJ and our primary is over. Are you a preceinct leader?
Nothing in Arizona
I had a recorded message from Dr. Paul on Super Tuesday and that is probuably because I gave my number when I donated to the campaign.

No
Only got the Phone call from Dr. Paul. Any precinct leaders out there ID-ing voters in other states (on the preceinct leader page of HQ site)?
Thanks
I started a thread
I started a thread http://www.dailypaul.com/... on this last week. Our Rhode Island Meetup group has raised enough to buy a half hour of airtime twice a week on a small radio station for 2 weeks, we bought a few ads in some newspapers and some radio ads on the #1 radio talk show in town. I've seen a small mailing from the campaign, but we've done everything else on our own.
YEP, THIS IS EXACTLY MY POINT
same with our meetup group, and tons of others Im sure. With the millions of dollars we raised, this is unexceptable. New Mexico is right for the pickings, there is much interest here for Ron Paul,...but until these people see him on the television in the form of TV ads, that show him as a presidential candidate that is running,...theres no hope for us to win are primary.
Illinois
Primaries are over but I never saw or heard a single ad. Not to say there weren't any but I never saw any exposure except a few signs and bumper stickers.
No
I don't watch the television anymore.I get my news off the internet and take it from there. Since I hardly ever see him mentioned even on am radio(which I listen to a bit but never even hear his name mentioned.So Screw the MSM. All they do is bullshit us anyways.
In Houston, Texas
I have seen many ads for Ron Paul in highly watched time slots. Remember, Texas has a lot of delegates. The great thing about the revolution is that it is grassroots. Do what you can to get the word out, vote in the primaries and become a delegate. Remember, this entire process is about getting delegates. If you have questions, or need help, visit the official campaign site and find the information for your state. Keep fighting, we need your help.
Ads cost money
Raise the money and run ads! Quit being so negative on this site.
NOPE..
Im not going to donate money after hearing what the official campaign spent it on. Yesterday Ron Paul revolution radio covered the official campaign expenses,..
tell me why Kent Synder the campaign manager is made $48,000 for the month of January alone!!!!
Seems like many of you want to sugar coat anything and everything and not want the truth. The truth is, Rons campaign has no oversight, and is run by a bunch of douche bags, we all know it.
Im not trying to be negative, I just think we should all know where all these millions that we raised are being spent. Don't you want to know what there spending the money on?
Didn't say to donate it to
Didn't say to donate it to the campaign. If you don't like how they spent the money, raise it and run the ads yourself. If you think you can do a better job of running a national campaign, then why don't you run for president! Romney spent five times what Ron Paul did and he isn't in the running anymore. McCain has raised and spent five times what Ron Paul did as well. Clinton and Obama have raised over ten times what Ron Paul did, so of course you are going to see their ads.
Agree?
So you agree with Kent Synders salary of almost 50 grand a month??
I dontated to help a grassroots candidate become president,...thats kind of hard when everyone in the campaign is taking all the money for their bloated salaries dont ya think?
