I WILL BE MARCHING ON JUNE 21 - who will be marching with me?

Romney can't GIVE his delegates to anybody. He has no control over his delegates once he drops out of the race. His delegates are now uncommitted and do not HAVE to support McCain no matter how bad Romney wants them to.

Only his Michigan delegates are uncommitted. The rest are going to McCain.
It would be wonderful if Ron Paul were to become president but it most likely just isn't going to happen. So a couple years from now what are people going to be talking about?
I agree 100% with that last line, spreading the message will do the job of supporting the campaign. The message is much bigger than just the campaign though. It is supporting the Constitution, the country, and it's people.
I think our only real difference is that i'm pessimistic and you're more optimistic. You still look at it as if he has a decent chance of becoming president, and I don't agree that that's the case. A CHANCE sure, but not much of one at this point. Even if he were president, the message is what makes Ron Paul so important.

Well it's not as much about him becoming President now. It's more that I don't want to see him fade into the background, because that's what the media has wanted and has essentially succeeded in doing. I believe Ron Paul is the face of this movement and should be at its forefront leading the charge. And a couple years from now I still want Ron Paul to represent that voice of positive change in Washington.

4th of July is one of the absolute worse choices strategically. It will go hidden in the Hoopla of ONE Of the day's events.
June 21 makes sense in every regard. Let The CIC know this so he can declare that day.

Dr. Paul does not want to be the one telling you people what to do.
He has enough faith in everybody to figure it out themselves - in fact, that is the entire foundation of his campaign and political philosophy.
He "suggested" a march because he wants it to be the peoples', the market's, creation.
The fact that getting RP supporters to do anything in tandem is like herding cats is what is *forcing* him to be more active. He does not want to be, he wants the movement to be organic.
Quit fretting about what he wants - as he says every chance he gets, it's not about him, it's about the message. He's just the champion of it today, it was somebody else before him, and it will be somebody else after him, and it's all of us this very moment.
Come with us on June 21st when WE will be the news story, when travel is cheaper, when people don't have other holiday commitments, when we commemorate the ratification of the Constitution of the United States of America, and we all end the evening celebrating what we've accomplished with none other than our favorite current champion of personal liberty, Dr. Paul.
Once you learn that you don't need a government or a human figurehead telling you when to march and what to believe, and only that you have the capacity and liberty to decide these things for yourselves, will you truly understand what the good Doctor is saying.
Come with us on June 21, I assure you that Dr. Paul will be elated to be summoned by us on that night to crown our achievement and speak to us about the liberty we all strive to take back.

Thank you! I'll just say first of, YES, I respect the significance of having it on the 4th, but it will amount to nothing more than wasted energy and probably a good chuckle at the media's expense. We would need astronomical numbers in order to stand out on the 4th amongst the hordes of tourists. They could easily do a pan over the masses and give a broad sweeping story about the heavy tourist influx in D.C. Do it too soon and we'll default on half our numbers, guaranteed. I would beg to say that almost everyone in my meetup group wouldn't make a short deadline because the funds just aren't in yet.
If you'd rather forego a good margin of our potential outcome, then have it in April or May, just so Ron Paul can make a potential dent in some states, OR, give enough prep time for a large segment of RP supporters to come to DC on a low tourist-driven day to show the government/media, that we're still going strong, we're not going to stop and that the message of Liberty is what unites us, Ron Paul was our catalyst.
You just don't get it.
They are taking over because their faith in "the market" is being severely tested by the paralysis of the grassroots. They do not want to be running the show, just like they don't set up money bombs, etc. It's market-driven. They are just taking a role because of the inept inaction.
Pick a good date and GO. The rest will follow.
The entire message of this movement is that people need to stop looking to a Great Leader for permission of when and where and how to do things, whether that be the federal government or a presidential campaign.
Take some responsibility for yourselves and ACT.
Come with us on June 21. The rest will follow YOU.

So you just want to go ahead and pick a date? you have no permits, no location, nothing and you say everything will fall into place on this magical date?
If you want to ACT why don't you call the National Parks Dept., go down to DC find the location you want and see if its available. Or better yet, since RP said he will look into these things why don't we wait a couple days and see what he says. Did you ever think he might actually want to be involved in this? Not because the grassroots is paralyzed or inept
