I hope whoever is in charge of this march sets a date really soon. Speaking for myself, it is very unlikely that I will get the time off from work unless I know by March 1st. The way it is set up, that is the deadline for submitting any requests for vacation days through the end of summer. I...

In keeping with Ron Paul's message, I think any financial help for getting to DC should be the responsibility of local communities, not the entire nation. Sure there are people who really cannot afford to go, but, as in our society as a whole, there will also be those looking for a free ride...

Look for any discounts or promotions you can find. Sometimes tickets are cheaper for certain day or off-times when fewer people travel. There may also be a discount for buying your tickets early, or buying them online. I think both Amtrack and Greyhound also offer some discount for groups...

The MSM WILL misreport, if there is any possible way to do so. Remember, they don't want people to see Ron Paul in a favorable light. The 21st symbolizes what Dr. Paul stands for. Additionally, the end of the school year can be hectic for students and parents alike. I think that all schools...

I think Memorial Day weekend is a bad idea, because a lot of people make plans to go away then. Whatever date you ultimately choose, can it please be decided soon. Some of us also work evenings and weekends and have to ask for time off way in advance. Then if we can get a list of everyone who...

Deciding not to vote in November is not a solution. Personally, I will vote, and write in Ron Paul if necessary. As for a march on Washington, check out this video where RP himself suggests that very thing, not for election day, but soon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryMliyeIDp4 I...

Great news about Washington state! This is just what we need to get the momentum going in our direction. From what I have seen, many people did not vote for Ron Paul in the primaries because: 1) They had never heard of him 2) They had heard only negative things or not enough information to be...

There are still nine months left until the general election. This campaign may have started early, but it did not really get into gear until recently. I am not seeing a clear frontrunner among the other three remaining candidates. If this trend continues, it is possible that none of them will...

If you will be driving your car to the polling places, don't forget to decorate it well with Ron Paul bumper stickers, signs, and other information, and park it in a conspicuous place. If you don't have "official" signs, you can make your own---nothing rude or confrontational, but some good...

I see that Romney and Ron Paul took the first two places in Nevada. Why? Because they both campaigned there, while the others did not--ie. got their messages out to the voters. RP supporters need to get their message out to the voters in all of the remaining states. The young people may be our...

Why more seniors don't vote for Ron Paul The problem is NOT that older people do not like Ron Paul or what he stands for. The problem is that the vast majority of them have never heard of him. Why is that so difficult for some people on these message boards to understand? Most senior citizens...

I wish I could believe that most senior citizens would watch the DVDs, but I cannot. I remember too well the comments a while ago when someone decided to deliver AOL internet CDs to the local senior apartments. "Somebody left a funny looking little record on my door. What am I supposed to do...

I don't mean to throw cold water on your idea, but a lot of old people I know have barely gotten used to music CDs and VCR movies. I know I don't speak for everyone, but many older people are slow to accept new technology. Unless some younger family member has given them a DVD player and some...

Right on! I only wish the official campaign would realize this before it is too late. I am over 50 myself, and live on the internet, but I feel that I am the exception rather than the rule. While a number of senior citizens use the internet, most of the ones I know get their news from other...
