NY Times: "A newly declassified document shows that J. Edgar Hoover, the longtime director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, had a plan to suspend habeas corpus and imprison some 12,000 Americans he suspected of disloyalty." On Digg (please dig it) Also on Yahoo (please rate it)

Well, no one gave me a choice about being gay, either. Of course, a black person can always *act* like a white person (cf., The OC Obama), and a woman can *act* like a man (cf. Hillary :O ). And, of course, a gay person can *act* straight, but it don't make it so. You're welcome to have your...

There is a real danger that core supporters will become overextended and/or numbed. Too many bombs! I think focusing on outreach (including door-to-door and gee-wiz things like the blimp (which will pull in more money "on its own" once it's in the air)) are more important than raising huge...

Very powerful and very well done.

Great ads. #3 is the best, and should work very well for moderate Republicans/Democrats/Independents. Please make a donation, this is better than the official campaign ad work! +$100

The problem with ISPs is that many people have very limited options (basically, either slow access or access through one evil company versus another). Most cable companies carve up their sales territory (oligopoly). The only real competition in broadband is between evil phone companies and...

There is no longer any such thing as privacy, and there never will be again, so long as we live in a technological age. The best one can do is try to minimize information leakage and stay "under the radar" (whether it's from government or commercial abuse). Even avoiding recordable...

Ron Paul is just a conspiracy theory, like NAU. :) What next, a Ron Paul blimp?!

Article focuses on dem candidates' lack of fiscal prioritization, but mentions "Republicans." Read it and weep. WHO IS RON PAUL?!!!! USA Today: Democratic candidates duck tough 'boomsday' choices OMFG.

A couple of things: 1. While I understand that RP supporters are passionate and self-sacrificing (just ask my credit card company :| ), as libertarians/free-marketers, should we really be so upset that we might have to use the services of a for-profit company to market our candidate? There's a...

I think the interview went, actually, very well, considering the target audience. RP is usually presented as a kook, fringe, extremist candidate, and this put him across as very human, likeable (grandfatherly), well-spoken, and genuine about the issues. Take it for what it's worth (which is...

Err, did I say $100? Well, they changed the categories, so I had to round up. :D I hope I get that raise soon. :|

Unfortunately, I can't, which is why I just had to raise the limit on my credit card, to support those who are. Not to mention the blimp. :|

Support Our Troops! ;) Having people -- REAL people, not chat room junkies (jk) -- on the ground in NH is critical to convincing people there that Ron Paul is a REAL candidate with REAL support. 100 people on the ground are worth 10,000 on the 'net. LIVE FREE!

I pledged $100, and I will be fulfilling my pledge tomorrow. Personally, I trust people who believe in Ron Paul, and am willing to take a chance on that trust. (If something were to "go wrong," there are civil remedies available, regardless of the stated Terms.) When George Washington asked...
