why? could you explain in 50,000 words or less?

Why your group cant raise a measly 350k? Doesnt mean people that know what their doing cant. Colorado is a pretty rich state. Its only 350 people giving a grand each.
 
@ 1800RONPAUL which goes to C4L the woman who answered had no idea wtf I was talking about...
 
You don't need it. You can search by name on the IRS site. In fact, you can look up a non-profit's EIN on the IRS site.


was just curious, because without the filing, do we actually know the name filed? For instance is it Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty or just Campaign for Liberty?

I remember looking for the filings back in Jan 09 didnt find anything then either.
 
do you have C4L's EIN?
There is no EIN for "Campaign For Liberty" that I can find.

I already looked. They definitely aren't where they should be.
Makes you wonder...

Not finding EIN's or 990's for "Ron Paul's Campaign For Liberty", either.

As I've said elsewhere...the mountain west is where the liberty movement has a good chance. It's definitely possible... although I still think it's pro-Buck millionaires just giving the money to C4L to run ads. If this is the case I don't even mind so much, Buck looks like the better and more viable of the bunch and it may be a good thing for the C4L in Colorado. Others might have more of a problem with the use of the name.

so I tried a search for

5211 Port Royal Road, Suite 310
the address in google.

Try plugging in 2010 Campaign for Liberty in your resources.

Edit: and also 2009 Campaign for Liberty

plausible.
 
If anything I think it will make people realize that they need to contribute directly to candidates and get more involved locally. At least that's what I hope.

I second this! While a "national" organization may be more flashy, it has way, way more unknowns like we've clearly seen.

Well I know with Club for Growth they allow you to direct your funds to a specific race/candidate. If C4L is going to be involved in this type of activity it needs to come up with a transparent process.
 
The plot thickens...

Buck earned his undergraduate degree from Princeton University in 1981, and his Juris Doctorate from the University of Wyoming School of Law in 1985. In 1986, he was hired by then-congressman Dick Cheney to work on the Iran-Contra Investigation. Following that assignment, he worked as a prosecutor with the U.S. Department of Justice in Washington D.C. In 1990, Buck joined the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Colorado where he became Chief of the Criminal Division. In 2004, he was elected the District Attorney for Weld County, Colorado. Throughout his years in Colorado, Buck has served as an instructor at the University of Denver Law School and for the National Institute of Trial Advocacy.

From what I'm hearing, C4L didn't spend anything on this. A group with money wanted to run ads for Ken, and they asked if C4L was willing to do it and get free publicity for their survey.
