Black This Out, Want $6,000,000? We Need THE ENTIRE MONTH for Promotion & 25,000 Attendees

How is this? I wrote it like an "About" section for a website. You can link it near the pledge button maybe.

This is the official website for the October 19th "Black THIS Out" Money Bomb. A money bomb is a 24 hour online fundraising event. Black This Out refers to the mainstream media's blackout of news coverage on the 2012 GOP presidential candidate Ron Paul. We're essentially trying to raise a donation total so large that it would be impossible for the media to ignore it, hence the Black THIS Out theme. Our goal is to raise $6 million for Ron Paul.

On the day of the event, all donations are to be made to www.RonPaul2012.com. There will be a donation ticker on the website, so you can see how much has been raised so far. No donation is to be made to the BlackThisOut.com website. The only purpose of this website is to collect pledges and to help spread the event through social networking tools. The emails collected from those who pledged will be used to remind them to donate on the day of the money bomb. The emails will also be used to notify people of upcoming money bombs later in the year. Once again, on Oct 19th, the only place to visit to make your donation is the campaign's official website at www.RonPaul2012.com.

Thanks for the reminder email

Hey I got a reminder email this morning from ronpaulforums.com staff. Thanks for the reminder but do we have the other RP sites sending out email bombs as well (RunRonPaul, Campaign for Liberty, the official campaign page, etc.). I only ask because the number of pledges that my email said (13000) would mean that the average pledge would have to be $461.54.

Dear xxxxxxxxx,

Because of the media's bias and their refusal to admit Dr. Ron Paul as a 2012 GOP Frontrunner, we have no choice but to make a very clear statement. On Oct 19th, we will stand as one with Ron Paul and his mission to change the course of history by raising more than $6,000,000 in a single day for his campaign for the Presidency of the United States of America. This will be our statement. Let the media Black THIS Out!



Black THIS Out Progress:

The Oct 19th "Black THIS Out" Money Bomb will be the one to surpass them all, but ONLY with your help!

So far, we have over 13,000 people pledged to donate what they can to the Ron Paul Campaign on the 19th. Over 13,000 people, ALREADY! That's many more people than the August 20th $2,000,000 Birthday Money Bomb, and with 14 days remaining until midnight of the 19th, we have the opportunity NOW to take this early momentum and really make the donation numbers EXPLODE!

Please be a part of the momentum - be counted by joining below at:

http://www.blackthisout.com

and

Here's where the two Mega Moneybombs of 2007 stood:

• Nov 5th, 2007 - November 5th MB - 17,000 Pledges - $4.3M Raised - 35,000 Unique Donors.
• Dec 16th, 2007 - Tea Party Day MB - 36,500 Pledges - $6M Raised - 58,407 Unique Donors.

With 13,000 people already pledged to this event and 14 days left to promote it, I think it's clear to see that we have a very real shot at out-raising our past moneybomb records of 2007, but we can ONLY do this WITH YOUR HELP!



What Each and Every One of us can do to Help:

• #1 - Help us Get Pledges on BlackThisOut.com & the Facebook Event Attendance totals:
The most valuable resource we have right now is YOU. Your network of friends, family and co-workers is the KEY to reaching the greatest number of people in the 14 days we have left before October 19th. lso, almost 10,000 people are already confirmed as "Attending" or "Maybe Attending" on the Black THIS Out Facebook Event. We need MORE! Our goal is 25,000 attendees, so attend yourself and then invite your friends.

• #2 - Spread the Word via Facebook, Twitter, Youtube & Email:
Help to share BlackThisOut with your friends and family on Facebook, Twitter and email by going to www.BlackThisOut.com. Just search for the social networking toolbar above the pledge form in order to help spread the word. You can also search for BlackThisOut promotional videos on YouTube and use them as a tool to help in your promotion efforts.

• #3 - Get More Ideas by Reading our BTO Promotional Guide:
For those who would like to do even more, This Promotion Guide has all the "How to & Step by Step" instructions so you can spread the word about Black THIS Out as far as possible. It is the official (lol) planning thread for this event. If you want to help us organize the event, just visit that thread. All the major links and even the marketing materials (e.g. posters, cards, widgets, etc.) are included in the first post. Please spread the promotion guide link below to any of your friends that want to help out with promotion.

This is our Final Chance to get Dr. Paul Elected President:

We need early momentum in order to build this into something spectacular, and that takes both time and effort. The Black This Out Money Bomb could be the DECIDING FACTOR on whether or not Ron Paul wins the GOP nomination. The campaign is currently trying to make a big push into 2nd place, but this can ONLY be done through the financial backing of the grassroots. If Black THIS Out reaches its $6,000,000 goal, the campaign will have enough funding to push as hard as they can to break Ron Paul into first place!

This is most likely OUR LAST CHANCE to get Ron Paul elected President, and judging from recent polling numbers and the weak presidential field, we definitely have a good shot at making this a reality. All that's needed is the ability for the campaign to make this push into first place. If we win the primary, we win the General election hands down. If we fail to achieve this, it could spell doom for our entire Republic. Don't allow this to happen when we're so close to VICTORY! Please do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING you can to spread Black THIS Out as far and wide as possible!

The amount of donors is always many times that of the amount of pledges. Also, C4L can't get involved because of the FEC, the same with RunRonPaul and the guy who runs it. We've already tried. The campaign though will hopefully be getting involved shortly.

We're not sure if the Daily Paul will be sending out an email or not. You can get on them if you want them to.

This is for ItsTime when he comes back to this thread. I think that the Facebook Event description isn't allowing you to fit everything on it because you're allowing the information to run too far vertical. I tried to rewrite the information, though it might need to be compacted even more. Try out what I have below. It should hopefully take care of the issue of people not understanding what a money bomb is. If it still doesn't fit, I'll try working on it again later. We're getting too many new people that don't know what's going on, so we need to make the description as informative as possible.

In case nobody saw my thread about it...

http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showth...ttendance-Numbers-for-the-2Mil-Birthday-Bomb!

Black This Out just passed the Facebook attendance numbers for the $2Mil Birthday Bomb and we still have 14 days left to promote it. The campaign hasn't even gotten involved yet. This thing is going to be HUGE! Here are the Facebook attendance numbers for the Birthday Money Bomb...

Aug 20th - Birthday Money Bomb - 7,840 Attending - $2,000,000 Raised

We just exploded past them. Like 100 people signed up within the last 30 minutes.

Yes! I didn't think we would pass it yesterday, when I checked the numbers on the Fb page this morning I was like dammmmnnnn!!!! To me everything over this number is like a bonus. With 13 days left that is going to be a lot of bonus.

I helped organize a campaign in 2007 to systematically message all 100,000 Ron Paul supporters on Myspace about the Nov. 5 and Dec. 16 moneybombs. It does not seem possible to message all of Ron Paul's "likers" on Facebook, because only administrators have that access. However, it may be possible to automate a system to collect all people who have "liked" one of Ron Paul's statuses in the past year of so (deleting duplicates). Perhaps this would get a hundred thousand or so of his fans. Does anyone with coding experience have ideas about this? Post or message me if you want to discuss further! Thanks!

I told him to come help us out in this thread if he has experience.
