The renting advertising (Blimp Timeshares) is just a way to jump through the legal hoops and essentially do this without a PAC and allow unlimited "purchases"
Do you want: "Who is Ron Paul/Google Ron Paul" on blimp?

All great points i agree with.
The business part of it is for legal reasons...
It gives us more flexibility in taking money.
You're paying for advertising - yes... Privately. Like the guy buying the NYT full page ad. Your contribution limits are... well... not so limited.
But the advertising you're buying is the Ron Paul advertisement.
Does that make sense?

I like this one. I like it better written as "Liberty, Peace, Prosperity". And the name "Ron Paul" in larger font above the slogan.

Where is a sticky thread giving all the current up to date info the blimp? What graphic and slogan will be put on it? What justifies this? What route will the blimp take?
What is the organizer thinking as of now? Any obstacles? Any issues?
Where can I contact the guy in charge of all this? Other than mailing him a letter to: 129 Bleachery Blvd #50 Asheville, NC 28805
Why isn't the organizer of the blimp answering any questions or doubt raised by the members?

Geez, this blimp idea is not well executed.

The time is past for cute things like Google Ron Paul and Who is Ron Paul. Matter of fact any given time I go google ron paul half of the news results link to news editorialists calling us kooks. That's the last thing we want potentially new supporters to see.
Keep it short sweet and simple.

Replicate on both sides as most people won't see both sides. Short sweet and simple and gets the message across.

It needs something more inspirational......

It's a blimp
Everyone wants this to be more than a blimp. It's not a TV ad, newspaper article, etc. It's a BLIMP!
You have to ask yourself what the purpose of a blimp is? It's simple, name recognition. You physically can not write a dissertation about how cool RP is on the blimp.
I think the choices are perfect. The fact is, if someone has already done the research on RP, they have already made up their mind and the blimp is useless. So, the target audience absolutely has to be those who don't know who he is - or those who have been to lazy to do the research and needed a big fat Ron Paul sign on a blimp in their face to get them moving.
For whatever reason, people seem to think that the artwork is going to change minds. It's not. It can't. All it can do is spur dialogue and/or research. It achieves this very well - and this is what we want!
"Peace, Prosperity, Freedom" is not going to spontaneously cause someone to vote RP - they are going to do research. So, in essence, it really makes no difference what is on the blimp - as long as it has Ron Paul on it. <- Name recognition.
If everyone is really so upset, let's instead move forward with the current artwork and try to coordinate something with the blimp organizers regarding artwork for the second month! It is clear they have very little time to organize this and it must be terribly hectic for them. I'm sure they would appreciate a little patience and understanding.
Once it is up in the air, then we can discuss better strategies for the second month!

At a minimum, paint over the "Who is ?".
Its embarrassing!

Issues
I think we should look at the most important issues here.
We are trying to cover the most ground with the fewest words possible.
The topics we surely need to cover are:
Putting his name out there
Informing people about who he is
Get people interested
I feel that the simple "RonPaul2008.com" on both sides does this. If you feel there is room to add something else, like "For Liberty!" or something like that, do so! But I doubt you will feel comfortable dividing the size of the web link in half to fit that on. Afterall, you were only planning on putting one three word line in the first place.
RonPaul2008.com shows his name, links them to a place where they can get information on him, and also leaves a certain air of curiosity because they will wonder what's at the web site and want to look it up. It covers all fields.
Let's also not forget that at his website they can donate, and that will be of great help as well. New people donating as well as informing themselves. Plus the website has links to his other sites like YouTube, where they can watch videos.
My suggestion is "RonPaul2008.com" it's simple and effective on all levels. We don't have the room to say a lot, and that, in my opinion, says the most with the least letters possible, which means it can be written pretty huge.
