I am POed. Jeremiah Black TV Ads in iowa dying for lack of funding?

Please keep donating. We have a lot of other states to fund these ads for. The sooner we get them funded, the sooner they can get on the air.

Look at the 'poll' threads on this forum...too many people are getting caught up in meaningless polls...it's like a sporting event; we HAVE to be #1 in such and such a poll. The public doesn't give a rat's hindquarters about on-line polls. They DO get excited about blimps...they DO get excited about innovative grass-roots commercials...wait until Russert grills the Congressman over the failure of the blimp Sunday morning. I'm cringing already...

Hi Rahl. Sometimes, you have to clear your cache and then refresh the page to see the new number in the Chip-in.

Yeah, it takes a few minutes to get through so you see the chipin amount go up.

Why dont I see an urgent plea for funding on thier site?

I would imagine because the urgency has been in the postings on this forum, on the Daily Paul and to the emails sent out to about 75 of the largest Meetup groups, thus far. We know that these are the early states, right? We know we are running flat out of time.

If we want to get these on the air in Nevada, South Carolina and West Virginia, we're going to have to somehow get the word out better. RonPaulLibrary, I think it was, recommended that the website be revamped. Skiingff is going to do that to include more detailed information. Then, we need help from folks to create some banners, pointing back to OperationNH.com. Maybe called something like Grassroots TV ads for the early primary states, or something like that, so we don't confuse people. Then, we need to get them everywhere that Ron Paul people frequent.

I came in late and understand the need for these airing in other state through super tuesday 1) are they fully funded for Iowa and New Hamshire? 2)What is thier project financial need to continue the adds through to super tuesday?

THESE GRASSROOTS ADS ARE FANTASTIC. THESE ARE THE ONES THAT SHOULD BE AIRING NOT THE OFFICIAL CAMPAIGN CORNY, BORING ONES. SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING.

SORRY I CAN'T DONATE, I'M NOT A US NATIONAL. My sis makes top quality tv commercials ...campaign hq ads make her cringe. Grassroots ads perk her up!

Seen it before. That's the one i was referring to! Must be because I'm not American. I hate it (not the message)I find it syrupy, the music lulling you into stupidity and the voice over sounds too much like a cross between Huckabee and George Bush with the promise ...of, well, nothing. The grassroots ads are full of vitality (something i thought the Revolution was oozing with!) Yes, i know, we are trying to get the conservative vote...I guess the fundies will like it.

Your not trying to garner the NZ vote after all. Kiwis would, most of us, run a mile from that ad!!!And then another mile! Like i said those grassroots ads have the 'X' factor!

So can we set up a grassroots money bomb within the next week or so?

500k out of the teaparty would've been more than enough to fund the current commercials and blimp projects..

I hate to say it.. but I'm kinda p-oed right now

Exactly. Why won't the campaign just donate $500 thousand to the grassroots? That itself could handle at least 5 states.

They cannot. Period.

 

[dircha]

There's no reason the official campaign can not pay market value to the rights holders of those ads and run them themselves.

 

[rational thinker]

They cannot. Period.

Oh, it's in violation of some rule or something?
