Free At Last! The next money bomb is ready!!

[celticsman7]

If the MLK idea does not pass, how about a money bomb on January 17, two days before Nevada and South Carolina, in celebration of the birth of Benjamin Franklin. That day in history, 301 years ago, represents the birth of American prosperity. Just a thought.

 

[Akus]

I think the next money bomb should be in February. Just to give people some breathing room to come up with more $$ and beat our own record yet again. I proposed we move the day.

Hey, maybe our next one could be for Joseph Stalin.

Look, fortilite, I did not insult you or use profanity to cuss you out. Were you born in a barn?

I stand by what I said. Traditional conservatives will not go for this. Not one bit.

We don't care about traditional conservatives. MOST of the revolution is young people. Have you ever seen a john mccain or mitt romney rally? They look like geriatric conventions.......

I'm in as well. I knew this post would bring out the kooks/racists/supremacists.

Okay, I can't read all 9 pages before I post.

I think, from a marketing standpoint, this is a bad idea.

It feels like a cheap attempt to gain my sympathy.

Ron Paul has done some great things and some great ideals, but to compare him with MLK?
Lots of people KNOW and LOVE the deeds and the man who was MLK, and when they see us trying to compare Ron Paul to him, they WILL be offended.

This is a bad move, like when John Lennon said the beatles were "bigger than Jesus".

Technically true at the time, still an offensive comparison.

EDIT: LOOK HOW DIVIDED WE, THE RON PAUL SUPPORTERS, ARE OVER THIS!

 

[GeorgiaRPFan]

Wow, a moneybomb day all set up without any input from the forums. . . something's not right. . .

 

[davidkachel]

You really need to read this website in-depth:

OK, in the interest of open-mindedness I took a hard look at the web site you suggested.
All it lacks is a "paid for by the KKK and White Supremacists of America" credit at the bottom of the page.

Let me guess... you probably think we didn't land on the moon either?

I agree BUT thats why i said we should involve all the peace makers not just one.

Ron Paul stands alone in congress.

maybe John Lennon too

Did you seriously just post a STORMFRONT hosted bullshit site that LIES about an American hero, Martin Luther King Jr.? Jesus Christ.

MLK is the American LEADER and SYMBOL of nonviolent protest. Nonviolent protest is the Ron Paul Revolution. We are protesting the corruption of our government, and donating our money along with our vote to someone who will change all that; Ron Paul. A money bomb on MLK Day is an amazing idea, and I completely support it.

 

[KewlRonduderules]

Actually thinking about this more, I think this would debunk and lay to rest once and for all, the White Supremacy nonsense out there. And if there is a significant amount of money raised, this can be viewed as quite beneficial for him. It'd be a hard case to sell that he gets support from White Supremacists. In this respect, it might be a VERY good idea.

But on the other hand, I am pooped out with the moneybomb stuff.

Is there another way that this money can be raised other than a moneybomb?

 

[literatim]

I just don't trust some new person.

Me neither, but I do trust the guy who is managing 1000 canvassers in New Hampshire. That would be Vijay, the original poster.

 

[V4Vendetta]

Vijay, the video (at around 3:40) says to donate on January 15th, but the text above says January 21st:

"On January 21st, when we honor Dr King and his message of peace and freedom, please support Dr Paul, who carries the same message, with a pledge of $100."

make that 3:20

 

[RonPaulVolunteer]

Instead of a money bomb to the campaign, We should set up a money bomb for the operationnh folks to get those ads in the key states.

Something along the lines

"10,000 donors donate 10 dollars to reach 100k" That will def. fund their great ads that it seems we all like on this forums.

so instead of complaining to the officall campaign people on not doing enough, we could fund this and its a win win situation..

Yeah I'm all for that!!! The campaign is flush, let's help out the people with GOOD ads!

Heck yeah, if anyone is loyal and trustworthy it's this guy. This dude quite his job, moved across the country and is leading a huge effort. He is an example of why we're going to shock everyone in the primaries.
