Celebrity endorsements -- Here is what we need right now!

[Compulsive1]

We need an emotional plea to Americans coming from a big celebrity.
Imagine the passion of Lawrence Lepard NY Times ad expressed on national TV by someone like Tom Hanks, Angelina Jolie, Kiefer Sutherland, Paul Newman, Clint Eastwood or someone of equal celebrity, complete with near tears and choking like Hillary.
I know Dr. Paul is not the man to do it. We need a plea that grabs attention and is shown on news over and over again because of who delivered it.
Oprah did it for Obama. Can we find someone of her caliber (at least in the general league- Oprah is huge) who believes in Ron Paul?
Are the Hollywood types all devoted to Hillary and Obama? Is there no one among them who realizes what President Paul would mean to America?
Is anyone reading this who knows how to effectively approach a celebrity?

I don't think so, expect more dirt. What you need to do is post on Chris Matthew show directly this link

and have people post on the story saying that was CNN news yesterday, today CNN is reporting WEAPONS GOING TO MIDDLE EAST with President Bush.

Don't worry! Fight Back, don't let FEAR IN!

NO WHINNING!!!!!!

That shit gets you nowhere. Argue, with clarity, and don't panic. We've got that where it matters most - our contender.

We have had great endorsement speeches/articles. We need more of them.

I believe there are potential Howard Stern and Dave Letterman endorsements, but not unless he either wins primaries or goes independent.

This shit gained Hillary 10% points or more in a day.
If you ask an average voter who are the celebrities endorsing candidates you will hear Oprah and Chuck Norris (as pitiful as he is) 5 to 1 over any others.
Can you name celebrities that endorsed various candidates other than Paul without looking them up in Google? Which ones are memorable ?
You don't think like an average voter. We need attention for Dr Paul and a 20 second bit involving a celebrity will do the trick more than you think.
All this take the high road mentality is why the campaign has failed to deliver a solid showing in polls and early primaries so far.
Get people's attention first! It worked for Bill Clinton for God's sake! Remember Jenifer Flowers? He was a nobody before the cheating scandal broke. People pay attention to small things.

I heard someone say on another thread that Wesley Snipes is getting sued by the IRS for practicing his right to civil disobedience and not paying taxes ^^

darnit...whered that thread go?

No celebrity is going to endorse Ron right now. We need to stop fantasizing that someone is going to come in and save us.

We need to focus, and get to to work.

Honestly, I think we should focus on democratic supporters. To me it looks like MSM is focused on the democratic candidates. I get the feeling they want hillary or obama to get the office before any gop candidate. Damn, hillary chokes out some alligator tears and its news all day straight. Yet, Dr. Paul has to raise millions in one day and break records to get half the coverage she did.
And correct me if I'm wrong, I believe in the NH primaries they had more democrats show up than republicans, not to mention the republican party has lost many members in the last few years.
Just sayn

How about Brad Pitt? If someone who is very recognized and respected endorsed him then we will have a bullet to shoot the main stream media.

Great idea - it would be great to have a celebrity on board and it would be even greater if that person happened to be black.
