I'm definitely not planning to keep my life savings in this business checking account. Mostly, I want a place to sweep online purchases until I can convert them to physical commodities, a place where I can write a check or two per month, and an account that I can manage online. Fiduciary...

I've looked at the local commercial banks and tried to find one that wasn't affiliated with a big Wall Street bank, but that's not all that easy for me to do. Once I threw out the big banks, the rest all looked about the same. I know that local banking is a cultural tradition, and there are...

I have a small online business that I've owned and operated for eight years. I need a small business checking account. I doubt I'll write more than 1-2 checks a month, but I'd like a debit card. I don't want a line of credit, but I do want online banking. I don't need to make nightly...

The Kentucky Club For Growth rounded up. Martha Jane King scored a dismal 20% on their fiscal responsibility rating in 2011, and scored a "worse than dismal" 19% in 2012. That's 19.5 in my book. Hey Martha Jane King! You're going the wrong way! I'm glad a fiscal conservative who respects...

THANK YOU! I wish I could do more, too. I signed up to phone bank. I'd rather take a bullet for Thomas than phone bank, but it's important so I'll suck it up and do it. :) I drove a friend's 14' box truck around Lexington one afternoon with 4X8 Thomas Massie signs on it when the KY-4...

I'm not a slacker. I'm doin' the hard work.

I tried to raise some national money on RP Forums to elect Phil Moffett as Kentucky's governor in 2011. We were all broke after electing Rand... with your help! We didn't get any national help with our governor's race. I guess it's too much to ask for help electing our governor, but all we...

I thought my original post made it clear why I took the time to reach out to people on the Ron Paul Forums. I see Phil Moffett very much as I see Rand Paul. He's not a perfect liberty candidate, but who is? He's a very good liberty candidate, despite some of the claims in this thread that...

The fact is, the bailout ball was a major diversion in Rand's path to victory. It cost a huge number of the Independent and conservative Democrat votes needed to win a US Senate seat in Kentucky. This isn't Monday morning quarterbacking, either. Those of us most active in the grassroots ground...

Forget voting for him. For now, I'd be happy if you'd avoid deriding a good, solid, electable liberty candidate because he's not your idea of a perfect (and perfectly unelectable) liberty candidate. I've voted Libertarian Party since Ron Paul ran as the 1988 Libertarian Party presidential...

Exactly! Thank you! And thank you for your work in the state legislature. I did a little of that last year and it's difficult and frustrating work. It's a den of thieves. That's one more reason why Phil Moffett would be so good for Kentucky. We need him to check and balance our awful state...

I'm definitely missing a lot of this long story. For example, I'd have mailed the checks. I'm guessing there was some reason that the checks needed to be delivered in person. I'd hope that Phil could visit in person and talk to people. The money is important, but we're looking at this as a...

I wouldn't say that MARCH of 2009 is "late 2009". :rolleyes: Some of my Kentucky liberty friends knew Rand and encouraged him to run. He was initially reluctant, as many great candidates are. We were all enthusiastic and supportive in our own way, very early. I had my first Rand Paul gun...

Any suggestions you have would be appreciated! Fund raising isn't some esoteric thing. It comes from people. Hence this thread. :) If you'd like to correct the fund raising deficit of this "great guy", please send him $10! Yes, I see that you're in the Students For Liberty (sweet!), but...

No, I think I covered that very well when I explained that David Williams did what was in the best political interest of David Williams, as he always seems to do. Does he get great credit for seeing that Rand was going to win late in the primary and doing his best to use that to his own...
