My title is hopefully the title that will be picked up and echoed on all the blogs to counter the absolutely DISRESPECTFUL title that this TV station used with its article:

They have feedback email -- YOU HAVE MY PERMISSION TO let 'em have it! The gloves are off for me.

Click: Republicans and Democrats, Please Protect Us from Ron Paul!

This should be forwarded to every columnist and news anchor in America, in the hope that they might plagiarize it.

282 Words on the Movement in Europe

By Allan Stevo

The trans-Atlantic connections between the US and Europe are strong. So strong that a movement in one is often noticed in the other and even, at times, a movement in one builds into a movement in the other. The Atlantic divides us but our connections run deep. With pride in those connections, many Europeans have started a movement in favor of US presidential candidate Ron Paul and his ideas. The movement is recognized to be in support of Ron Paul, as well as in support of the many Americans backing our candidate (as can be seen for example in the case of this poster made by a German man in Munich:

Never, before has this happened in this magnitude to a non-yet-elected American presidential candidate. This Saturday and Sunday (December 15 and 16, 2007), the Strasbourg Tea Party will take place in Strasbourg, France, and will serve as the first Europe-wide gathering of Ron Paul supporters.

* It is an audience receptive to Dr. Paul's positions
* The ad is highly targeted to the magazine's audience
* This is a full page, full color ad
* We can get great page placement

All of this for $3600. The problem is the deadline is Friday if we want to get it in the January issue (the only one in time for registration).

Here is the ad (not the final draft):

This morning MSNBC showed the attack ads by Romney and then showed Jeremiah Black's ad.

Lets ride the wave and get Jeremiah completely funded for his current work and new pieces.

This gave us free national showings on MSNBC!!!!

If we can fund these and get the best ones out now this will give us more free advertising on the networks...

Lets ride the wave right now.

From Ronpaulblimp.com:

Hi everyone! We are dealing with uncooperative weather as well as delays on the blimp artwork.

The banner company tried to ship the first banner via plane, but ended up needing 4 weeks notice for a cargo shipment because of security regulations. It is currently in route to the blimp via UPS and should be there by Wednesday, Dec 12. The second banner will arrive by Thursday, Dec 13.

I recently spent a significant sum of money running a full-page advertisement in USA Today supporting the candidacy of Ron Paul for President of the United States. Several people have asked me why I did it, so I have decided to explain my reasoning.

I believe that as American citizens we stand at an important crossroads in history. We are faced with a very important decision that will have repercussions for many, many years. We need to make a decision as to what we want America to represent, and to become. History will record the outcome of our decision. If we blow it, many more innocent people will die, and history will not be kind. As I say to my closest friends, I do not want to have to explain to my grandchildren that I was one of the “good Germans.”

Let me state it clearly. The America that I grew up in believed in the rule of law, not men. The America that I grew up in believed in telling the truth. The America that I grew up in believed in following Judeo/Christian values, and yet made room for those of different faiths and backgrounds. The America I grew up in had a religious flavor, but we were wary of those who wore their religion on their sleeves. The America that I grew up in believed in the golden rule: treat people the way we would like them to treat us. The America that I grew up in believed that you did not lie, cheat or steal. The America that I grew up in believed in the inherent goodness of most men, but recognized that evil exists. Nevertheless, the America that I grew up in did not believe in an eye for an eye. It believed in protecting oneself from evil, but in the process of doing so we were cautioned not to become what we were protecting against. In short, the America that I grew up in was a place where one could be proud of one’s country, and thankful to the men and women who had sacrificed so much in the past to give us this heritage.

Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul's supporters are set to take off into uncharted political territory this week with the launch of a giant airship that will fly up and down the East Coast advertising their candidate's name.

But the Ron Paul blimp project is more that just a way for supporters to win more exposure for the Texas congressman's White House run. It's also a daring end run around U.S. campaign finance laws, amd it might set a new course for election fundraising, or blow up like the Hindenburg.

"We created a business plan that allows any U.S. citizen to buy as much blimp as they want, without having it count towards their current campaign contributions," reads an explanation on the Ron Paul blimp fundraising site. "This updated legal arrangement offers the best of both worlds, no limits and virtually no regulations."
