Dear lord, this is a tremendous ad! [RevolutionPAC - September 19th, SUPERBOMB fundraiser]

there are some seriously rich libertarians, hope they step up and donate to RevPAC
 
Valid concern.. As a target of everyone in the media we need to be very careful, this could be construed as insensitive.

Not to mention, the actual video play and promotion will take place leading up including the day of 9/11. I have a bad feeling we're asking for a hit piece(s).
 
The ad says "from around the world". So this means that foreigners and foreign businesses can donate, right?

I hope so, because I think a lot of foreigners would donate just to bring peace and end the wars.

I wish, but I don't think that is possible. I'm Estonian and I would love to donate. The fight for liberty is universal.
 
Great imagery of Dr Paul! Music good too, nice and stirring.

Worries:
Minor - too many words on the first screen and/or too wide a line with too small a font (I was always taught that there should be no more than 6 words per line for quick reading - think of the text at the beginning of the first Start Wars).

Major - I agree with those who think that the explosion at the end creates a "9/11 problem", but more significantly it ends the video with a negative destructive image that does NOT represent what Dr Paul is about. LOVE is at the heart of the Ron Paul Revolution. The video would be much more effective and memorable if it ended with some dramatically positive imagery such as an enormous field of sunflowers growing very quickly to full height. Or an eagle soaring or something.
 
I just shit my pants. We need to focus on getting the word out on this. But still need to remember the campaign comes first.
 
One word: Forbes


This is going to frighten, shock, and scare the absolutely crap out of so many people if this money bomb is as successful as it should be.



Forbes is not as idealistic as we are. I doubt he would donate to the super PAC

Not to buzzkill BUT...

This is going to be just 8 days after the 9/11 10th anniversary - is all the explosion imagery gonna rub people the wrong way?

Love the video but the first thing that comes to mind is the timing when I see 9/19

You certainly have a very strange mind for this to have been the "first" thing that came to it. I seriously doubt any association, real or imagined, would ever be made between a Ron Paul Revolution SuperPAC and some sort of approval acceptance of our response to 9/11, as in "rubbing people the wrong way". If anything I'd say based on KingRobbStark's reaction, the ad certainly rubbed someone exactly the right way. ;)

(PS: I <3 Game of Thrones too btw, started reading Song of Ice and Fire about 8 or 9 years ago, swore after The Wheel of Time I'd never pick up a fantasy series that wasn't finished. ;) ).
