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

[Dieseler]

what happened to someones idea of having it on Dr. Paul's anniversery. Let for once the Good Dr. have his own day with no attachments

Now I can get behind that idea!
When is his Anniversary?

 

[Buzz]

Just out of interest.. did any copyright violations get brought up with the Nov 5th donation? Studio that owns the rights for V for Vendetta?

Surely not. Not to be Captain O, but whoever produced V for Vendetta doesn't own the rights to Guy Fawkes day, and that's what the bomb was about. The facts that V for Vendetta popularized the date and influenced our choice of it are irrelevant.

We need to move in a new direction. We cannot be the dinosaur that fails to adapt. Please watch this video!

I think Feb 1st or something but I say either no money bomb or let it be just a Day For him --not some other holiday

 

[constituent]

or instead of money, people could volunteer at some local organization.

I can say one thing: Unless the initiator of the previous two moneybombs gets behind this and it gets trumpeted by Alex Jones and other people of influence in alternative media, this thing aint goin nowhere. What we say here matters little.

This forum is not and never has been the driving force behind this movement but it’s the meetup groups, ideas out in the field and alternative media to push the ideas along. This particular forum may serve the opponents of Ron Paul more than the followers because ideas and initiatives can be squashed before they get off the ground.

12/31 is more important.

Glad to see common sense prevail. Just let this dog die. MLK MB was/is a horrble idea.

I'm supposed to follow the advice of a newbie with only 9 posts?

Appears to me with only 9 posts and according to your first post http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?p=676295#post676295 that you either felt it necessary to join this forum for the sole purpose of voicing your opposition towards this idea or you decided to come on under the guise of a different username to oppose the idea. Either way both reasons reek with insincerity.

One thing is for certain: the mainstream establishment hates moneybombs and they hate MLK as evident by the fact that they murdered him. Also given the fact that this forum is infested with mainstream establishment moles any idea of a moneybomb, irregardless for who or what day it commemorates, will be vehemently opposed.

To begin with I wasn't speaking directly to you even though you arrogantly seem to think so. My comments stand whether I have 9 post or 9 thousand.

Terrible idea! This is not a uniter. This is not an inspiration.

Boston Tea Party was a much better idea than Nov 5, so it got better press and more people involved. Stick to something everyone can stand behind.

I know that you were not speaking directly to me but I was speaking directly to you and I’m speaking directly to you now when I say that to join a Ron Paul forum to oppose the idea of a MLK moneybomb is disingenuous to say the least. On that basis alone you should not be taken seriously, and that goes for all your 9 posts and all the posts that follow.

Not in favor of another $$$ bomb yet, would rather see efforts directed to a mass gathering / "Ronstock" concept.

Bump for common sense.

The money bombs did their job.

We need to quit wasting our time arguing about the date of the next one,

and get out the vote!

I did. And here was my response:

I prefer the moneybombs because they create a buzz of anticipation, main establishment anxiety (which can throw them off their game plan) and MSM coverage. Plus money bombs don't take away from the general donations. We may well hit $20,000,000 for this quarter which would not have been possible at $500,000 a week over the period of the last quarter with no moneybombs. The last quarter was 12 weeks. $500,000 X 12 = $6,000,000. That’s a far cry from $20,000,000

The mainstream establishment hates the moneybombs because they are forced to cover them and they’ll do what ever they can to stop them. That is why I am not surprised about all the fears about another moneybomb.

And here’s an additional response:

But we should still have the moneybombs because they have proven themselves to work. The first one was big, the second one was bigger with more donors. The 3rd one, if promoted with the same intensity, has the potential to be even bigger because of the additional donors who never took part in the first two (the amount of supporters are growing on a daily basis). Makes no sense to me to abandon something that works, and the trend appears to grow bigger with each additional moneybomb. Your idea can be implemented along with the moneybombs but your idea does nothing to provoke valuable MSM coverage (an additional dollar value on top of the moneybombs to be estimated in the tens of millions).

We've outgrown the usefulness of money bombs. Votes are more important than money now. Plus the media largely ignored the last one (which to me actually means they're more scared now than ever before).

And I just want to get this out there- I suggest donating $51 on February 1st for Ron and Carol's 51st wedding anniversary.

 

[Ernest]

Glad to see overwhelmingly that people think this is a really bad idea.


Post 11!

....Plus the media largely ignored the last one (which to me actually means they're more scared now than ever before).

Precisely why I think there should be another one. Those who are scared make mistakes and when they make mistakes they reveal themselves to the sleeping public.

And I just want to get this out there- I suggest donating $51 on February 1st for Ron and Carol's 51st wedding anniversary.

I think that's a great idea for a mini moneybomb
