Alright, I'm on board with video ideas for Ron Paul girl.

[ShaneC]

now that I think about it, I do know one indie director/editor/videographer who might be able to help us, if she's willing.

She's out in Cali, and I haven't spoken to her for a while, but if I can track her down, I'll see what I can do.

How about a vid with a girl from each state or region, flashing around between them all?

 

[micahnelson]

I dont wanna be that guy, but...

Obama got attention with his girl because the MSM hadn't seen the "candidate-girl" thing yet. Hillary's girl got attention because of the lesbian thing, and the idea of anyone finding Hillary sexually appealing is... brb. Ok sorry I just threw up.

Having a Ron Paul girl would not advance us a quarter of an inch in the Mainstream Media. We do not need to increase our viewership on youtube- we dominate youtube, and even if we were trying to, why offer sex appeal as a lure via the one format that has unrestricted availability of pornography?

Hey I like how many ideas are floating around! I'd encourage everyone to keep putting every idea out there and get the creative energy flowing. The vid producer(s) will just need to be picky about what they use, and make sure the end product is edited up to a high standard.

PS. Has anyone else noticed there aren't enough smiley options?

Yeah, and the Asian girl could be saying "Awww, me rikey Ron Paul!" and the black chick can say "Ron Paul is my homeboy!" while she wags a finger.

When you were thinking about what you considered "classy", what made you think pigeonholing spokesmodels into racial stereotypes would further that goal? I'm not trying to be rude, but boy is this a terrible idea.

I certainly was NOT picturing the racial stereotypes you just posted. That was awful.

"Me rikey RP, RP is my homeboy, ? "

NO NO NO NO. That is the crap I want to stear away from and that is why I said, keep them classy.

Anyway, I moved on to the idea making them diverse through political issues.

have

the gun rights american girl.

the low taxes american girl

the non interventions tighten our own border security American girl

the loves an honest man of interigity American girl

etc........

I'm imagining the song "Wish they all could be californian" playing in the background.

Then why did you choose music and images that were racially associated with each spokesmodel? Why jazz for the black spokesmodel? Because black people like jazz? Such messages like "hey you black people like jazz and this black spokesmodel also likes Ron Paul!"seem like they would be really offensive to people of those races.

That's a lot better than a black girl who likes jazz, and a Latina who likes salsa.

I'd like to see a group of little old ladies (basically) sitting around (quilting?) talking about "back in the day" - and the freedoms and liberties lost.

LOL I love it!


Ok:

The old ladies are sitting around quilting...then talking about their freedoms "back in the day" Then they see a Ron Paul commercial on TV.... then suddenly they rip off their dresses....and they're wearing a Ron Paul shirt undernearth.... with a Disco ball slowly dropping down while the lights go dim.

Then the old dancing ladies say "Boogie to the Freedom...Yeah!"

because I am just brainstorming for one and two, I wasn't picturing them at all the way you were. The way I pictured them made all of their races contributions to this nation look extremely cool! What I was picturing would invoke pride in anyone who picked them as their favorite girl.

Most of us LOVE jazz and are greatful to the fact that African Americans brought it into the American mainstream culture.

Zen, martial arts, asian decor is HOT and many are are greatful, for the asian influence on American culture.

These are facts of the beauty of the All american melting pot.

I just did not see it with the ugliness or denegration you did.

I agree, some will still want to make the beauty of Americas cultural diversity an ugly thing by crying "stereotyping" so scratch it.

If it were up to me, I wouldn't even copy Obama's supporters ideas.

I just ask that if someone must copy, that they upstage them and do it bigger and better with new twists that make the women look cooooooooool and sophisticated ( which can be very sexy) , not like trashy whores!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you!

I like the Martha Washington idea.

I hope these girls don't mind being on here, but they're all Ron Paul's myspace friends. I'm not sure if they all support Ron or understand politics much, but I think they would make good models for Ron Paul.

I like her, she'd make a great spokes model for
Ron Paul, if she has a grip on the issues that Ron holds.

 

[Joe Knows]

I like the Martha Washington idea.

How about Dolly Madison?

 

[DjLoTi]

Wow that nurse was really hot

 

[herepamwas]

I am offended. Why can't we look past what people look like?!? Why can't we do something like this?

I don't care for these things...

Numbers man numbers. That was a very good video to look at when a girl video brings them in.

I hadn't seen video, it's REALLY good. I especially liked the dog Zeus at the end. No seriously, I did. Why? Because I like puppies. I'd love to snag the last portion of that, call it Pups4Paul and send it to some of my girlfriends. I bet they would think it was really cute...and then ask me who Ron Paul is.

We should work on a video like that, AND a video like this. I hope there is enough support to do both projects, and many more. Whatever way ya'll decide to take it, I'm in, for whatever I can be of help with.

I like the idea about Martha Washington, I drew up a (very) rough sketch last night to spark some ideas or debate for costuming and look/direction. I prefer to modernize her slightly and keep her cute rather than vampy. Only problem was that I couldn't think of anything distinguishing to make her "Martha" rather than a generic Colonial Girl. Can anyone help with a good site or more info about her? I'm thinking of doing a "Which Ron Paul Girl Are you"? Quiz with characters from some of the ideas generated in this thread.

On the line of the Disco Grannies video, I think that is an original idea and has alot of potential. I wonder if the Granny Warriors for Ron Paul would oblige us, they seem like fun ladies. Maybe we could even work a more traditional Martha Washington into that bit. Anyone have an in with them? http://www.grannywarriors.com/
