Ron Paul Announcement on the Rally for the Republic

!! Digg It !!

Tuesday, July 22, 2008 | by Ron Paul

If they expected us to retire quietly from the scene, the political elite are in for a surprise.

Today I am making some very big announcements.

First, from August 31 to September 2 in Minneapolis, we will host a handful of events that will shake the political establishment. Everything will culminate on Tuesday with the official launch of the Campaign for Liberty at the Rally for the Republic.

The Campaign for Liberty will be the largest organization for peace, freedom, the Constitution, and sound money in American history. It will launch in grand fashion with lots of special guests and - if the early television and print inquiries we’ve received are any indication - plenty of media attention.

I would like to personally invite you and your family to join me and thousands of others in Minneapolis for these events and send a message to the Republican Party.
Tickets will go on sale for the Rally for the Republic this Friday, July 25 @ 10AM CST. We want this to be an unforgettable day, so we are holding a ticket bomb all day Friday in the tradition of our famous money bombs. How many seats can we sell on the first day?
In patriotic fashion all tickets will cost $17.76, so you can afford to bring the whole family.

This leads me to the second big announcement...

YES, YES, YES!!! The RPNC

YES, YES, YES!!!

The RPNC (Republican Paul National Convention) is going to MASSIVELY influence the delegates in St. Paul, MN.

I'm about to faint I'm so excited.

Ron Paul ROCKS!!!!!

GOD BLESS RON PAUL!

We're going to make HISTORY in St. Paul!

Federal Reserve

The Federal Reserve is only 5 blocks north of the target center, how appropriate this rally got moved there.

Let's picket them!

A picket line or protest in front of it might make a fine activity when taking a break from the proceedings.

And if we can provoke the media into covering it - even with a "Look what those Paulite Loonies are up to now!" piece - it will set the stage for getting part of our message across to more of the population.

weehaa

RU R Brother Tucker?

I do hope when Tucker Carlsen shows up someone either has a sign like:
RU R Brother Tucker? Or a chant "are you our brother tucker?" as many times as he has flip-flopped his support and made things worse. I guess he's from the "any exposure is good exposure" media school. Good luck to all who attend.

Everyone Has To Come To Paulstock!

whatever it takes - this is Paulstock ... our version of Woodstock -

we have to overflow even this 20,000 seat auditorium -
we need to have people flowing out into the streets to support
the Freedom Message!

Wake Up GOP - here is your only hope to have a Republican in the
White House for the next four years.

No Ron Paul supporter is going to vote for McBama -
(he has already lost)

No to McBama

Yes to Campaign For Libery and the Rally for the Republic!

Ron Paul 2008 and beyond!

Or Ronstock

as just seen in another post....

The media is already buzzing about this event!

Be a part of history -

the climax and the beginning!

Want to sleep in your car!?!?

If not, you might want to get busy looking for accomidations NOW.

I hate to sound crazy, but I went looking for hotel rooms and found that just about everyone is booked solid. Please don't wait to make hotel reservations.....Or you'll be sleeping in your car.

Several have made reference to camping/RV-ing....Sound like a great idea if you've got the gear. I have absolutely no idea how many of those spots are left available.

I would just hate for any of our people to miss the RP event 'cause the neo-cons booked all the rooms for their event.

Thanks for the link.

I'm not really into the camping thing but that info will surely be helpful for those that are.

Keep Diggin'

"digg it" link hard to notice

For some reason that "digg it" link is hard to notice at the top, maybe it's the image below it that immediately grabs the attention.

I recommend making it more conspicuous.

150th Digg'er!!

BTW, a plug for Ron Paul...

Here in the "Left Coast", tomorrow 7/23...don't forget to tune in to KFI-AM 640 @ 8AM for an interview of Dr. Ron Paul by Bill Handel of nationally syndicated legal advice talk show "Handel on The Law".

For a live link to the interview:

Woohoo!!!!

This is our Flagship event.

This is our Flagship event. I'll be there if I have to walk.

So true....

I absolutely HATE crowds but wouldn't miss this event!

Dr. Paul is my hero!

The first email I opened this morning was my Letter From Ron ~ that was posted above.

If they expected us to retire quietly from the scene, the political elite are in for a surprise.

From the first paragraph I broke into tears. We are beyond fortunate to have such a beautifully spirited, fightin' leader...

...and the dailypaul to express our feelings. Thank you, Michael!

I am bursting with pride and can't wait for our Convention.

Amazing pictures of the Target Center: The full arena can seat up to 20,500! To think we had an estimated half to three quarters of this number at the Revolution March. Aichiwawa, mama...no wonder we had to upscale to the largest arena in Minneapolis. ;-)

Ron Paul Gets Bigger Soapbox for Shadow Convention
Email

July 22, 2008 9:14 AM

ABC News' Z. Byron Wolf reports: Ron Paul is not holding his breath for a speaking slot at the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis/St. Paul in September and he has long planned a day-long shadow convention to give him an arena to expound his limited government mantra.

But, worried about the size of his arena, his new political action group--The Campaign for Liberty--has booked a bigger one.

They'll announce today they've changed from the Williams Arena at the University of Minnesota to the much larger Target Center, seating capacity: 18,000.

Paul's supporters have been undefinable and unknown throughout the election cycle. There are the loud and sometimes rowdy, usually young sign-waving blimp renters, omnipresent in the early primary states during the Republican race. And there is the legion of online supporters, contributing millions online and creating what Paul hopes will be a lasting grassroots framework.

But there were not (on balance) many voters for Paul, who while he stayed in the race against Sen. McCain longer than any of his GOP rivals, has very few Republican delegates.

So Paul's shadow convention (speakers include anti-tax crusader Grover Norquist, shaggy haired cable personality Tucker Carlson, and Barry Goldwater Jr.,) will be a test of his new group's staying power and organizational mettle. Supporters have been encouraged to exploit state delegate rules to get appointed to, infiltrate and make themselves known at the national convention before decamping for the Target Center.

Driving up from Chicago on our way out to LA!

My husband and I are moving to LA and we're driving up on the 30th for the events and we can't wait! Unfortunately we have a U-Haul and won't be returning back to Chicago so we can't bring anyone but I'm willing to donate $ for people who want to go but can't afford fuel. Is there a support link somewhere?

GO RON!!

Up To 20,000 Capacity

That's what Wiki says:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w...

And I bet it will still be overflowing.

Accommodations

Hey, will someone create a link to hotels and camp sites in the area and keep it bumped?

I'll drive there...no way will I ever get in a plane again.

My Malibu gets 40 mpg...with air on.

Few rooms available

at this time (if any) in the downtown area.

I just booked a room that's about 20 miles away from downtown 'cause that's the only thing I could find.

Better get started NOW if you plan on finding a hotel room for this event!!!

Metro area campgrounds & RV parks + nearby hotels

Nearby hotels (within 4-5 miles)

My old stomping grounds. I can't wait to see you all there!

Can someone find good airline tix from South Florida?

I want to meet all of you there, but tix pricing is getting out of control!

Help!

Yours in Health and Freedom

Can't hitch a ride....?

Are there no meet ups in your area. If you can get to Orlando you can join us. So far we are renting 2 minivans. But will rent more and caravan up there.We will sleep 4 to a room and split gas. Email me if you are interested. If you belong to a meet up, try to get 6 including you together to rent a minivan for appro. $52/day, split the gas $70 tank full that can take you approx. 350+ miles (rough estimate), and split hotel 3 in a room $100 or less/day.
We traveled to D.C from Orlando. Cost per person $165 (6 in a minivan,split gas and hotel). To go to Minneapolis 6 per minivan, gas, hotel It will cost $240 approx. Arriving Sunday, stay 3 nights and back in Orland Thursday.
The long drives are FUN FUN FUN. We made new friends this way.

I'm so excited!!! This event is going to be great!

Now the real question is, "How many ways can we advertise this event at the grassroots level?". It's our event to make history! Will we let Dr.Paul down and ultimately the country? I hope that I see dozens of threads filled with ideas and action later this afternoon. The DP should be flooded with them! I have a few of my own that I will contribute after work, that is if someone hasn't already done so. Awesome stuff!!!

Hope is on the way!
