    If you live in TX, stop reading this

    Instead, here is a better use of your time: 1) Connect to your local MUG (http://ronpaul.meetup.com) 2) Get voter info for your area (https://voters.ronpaul2008.com) 3) Get off your ass and 4) Canvass Chuck Young Austin ps: before any cry "hypocrite", note how rarely I post here. I learned a...

    Anyone in Austin - Precinct 321

    Pct 321 Hi, You need to connect to the MUG. I know of a total of three people in 321 but if you aren't dialed into your county coordinator you can't keep abreast of that sort of info. http://ronpaul.meetup.com/14/calendar/ Please come to delegate/convention training. Please call the south...

    Testers needed for National HQ mobilization

    Linux, Firefox My main gripe is that the UI is somewhat obfuscated. The button "Report Feedback..." etc which gives a list with phone numbers needs a more descriptive label eg "View / Edit List of Voters in you Precinct". cy

    For all, A letter from an angry soldier This why we need RP!

    Complaining about problems is easy. Solving them is harder: 1) Why don't you read the docs: http://ronpaulaustin.com/rptxpac/help/index.html 2) Specifically, about your problem, that's a result of user error: http://ronpaulaustin.com/rptxpac/help/howto.html#callingDial ... a problem that...

    NEWS ALERT: Texas straw poll voting restricted!!

    Hi Jeremy :) ... I figure I'd make it "official". Son of Spooner LOL. We do need National help in this. It's been posted frequently here but I'll say it again, more succinctly. I need your * First and Last Name (aliases ok but expect the names "Liberty" and "Freedom" to go quickly) * City...

    Operation Spooner- Iowa Outreach

    Callers = 250+ and counting, that's just spooner's tally... there's more in another repository I'll have to get to. Now if each of them could just sell *one* Iowan a Lear Jet... :cool: cy

    Operation Spooner- Iowa Outreach

    Spooner => Call Iowa Hello All. For those of you not aware, I'm Chuck Young. I was "the man at the switch" of Op. Spooner, as someone picturesquely put it. So I guess that makes me responsible for the recent train wreck... :confused: I just got off the phone with Heather Olsen. She's as...

    Brainstorming Door to Door -- Grassroots Decentralized

    This dovetails nicely with my previous post. Can we reach a pragmatic concensus on simply walking precincts, collecting data as we go, and inputting it into the database at day's end? re Quadrants vs Precincts, I think the precinct method works nicely as it's a natural fit to the electoral...

    Brainstorming Door to Door -- Grassroots Decentralized

    I don't think that's a problem. We've got some talented folks and the human resource pool is growing daily. We've got an advokit server running at https://ronpaulaustin.com/spooner right now (sorry login is by invite only... see the advokit demo at http://advokit.civicactions.net/demo/ )...

    Getting Organized, State by State, and Schedule of Straw Polls

    Hi Mr. Hale... thanks for your input... OK. Where is the top down direction? It's June. Straw Polls are in August. PCC is still trying to figure out how to centralize communications for the grassroots organizers. This is the same entity that chose meetup.com in the first place. And what a...

    Getting Organized, State by State, and Schedule of Straw Polls

    Hi Bryan Cool... I think the only point I'm trying to drive home is that "simply start a new effort" is gonna have to translate into somebody from the exec initiating a new project with themselves as manager. They can't just tell someone else to "do it". Formally, if the old project is...

    Getting Organized, State by State, and Schedule of Straw Polls

    Hey Bryan, Yeah, I think the first one is good. A nice function of the executive would definitely be to keep a list of "ideas" around. They could rate 'em, but I'd say that the really meaningful appraisal of cost-effectiveness is going to come from the guy/gal who actually takes the project...

    Getting Organized, State by State, and Schedule of Straw Polls

    Cowbot, I agree that meetup.com is an atrocity. The reality is that it will probably remain the port of entry for RP supporters for some time. It is a profound challenge to get folks into more efficient communications channels (mailing lists, websites) and to capture user data for project...
