I will seriously consider this. It's way out of my budget but I'm likely to sign up anyway.

 

[angrydragon]

Even if we don't get 10,000 people to sign up, donate anyways. =)

I think pledge matching is a lot more involving and ultimately better way to get people to make a donation, but anything is good I suppose.

 

[Harald]

$1000 is a lot of money for most of the people.

However, if you know that 9,999 people will do the same, then, you can sacrifice a little bit (or a lot) depending on your situation to raise $1000 and deliver an embarassing blow to MSM pundits and first tier candidates.

Well, I hope you're posting this somewhere else besides just this board, because we don't have anywhere close to that number of people.

The mass media looks at how many people donate as a factor too. If they see only 10,000 people donated $10,000,000 to Ron Paul then they will disregard the numbers. We need to get all donations in no matter how small or large they are. I would rather have 100,000 people donate $100 than 10,000 people donate $1,000.

 

[Harald]

well, start the pledge then, I will sign it up ;-)

 

[Bluedevil]

I'd rather get the money any way we can get it.

Money is nice, but it's the vote that counts. We shouldn't make people feel like if they can't afford to donate $1,000 that they shouldn't donate at all is what I'm trying to say. Donate anything you can, whether it's $1 or $2,300, because more importantly it shows that Dr. Paul has one more supporter.

 

[purepaloma]

Signed.

10,000 People should be a goal for our board. Spread the word. The rest will give what they can (less or more)

Yes, but more donors giving less is sustainable. Donors tap out at $2300.

 

[damijin]

I signed up, though frankly I intend to donate $1000 this quarter regardless of the outcome. It will mostly be done through donation matching on facebook and here if they start becoming more interested in that activity over here.

 

[Lord Xar]

ok. I am in.

 

[DjLoTi]

4 people, nice. I'm afraid I can't commit that money, but I hope that it succeeds...

 

[Akus]

I'd donate more, but I've already given the maximum.

 

[Man from La Mancha]

I'd donate more, but I've already given the maximum.

If you can afford more give it thru a fellow Ron supporter that can't afford it, to give it for you.

[Stinker]

I am signing up, first time I will donate also.

 

[beermotor]

I'll join a 100k at $100 pledge match; no way can I afford the $1k.
