If Elijah doesn't change the graphics back, he is going to lose half the pledges

Better think about that before getting committed to the blimp graphics.

I think it is a big mistake not to include the words "for President" on the blimp.

They tell you why the picked what they did here,

I understand their reason. I'm telling you how it's going to fail if they keep it up.

Who is Ron Paul?

We chose the Who is Ron Paul message because the reality is that most
people do not know who Ron Paul is.

Google Ron Paul

Google is a verb in the dictionary. People know what this phrase means. It is commonly
used in the main stream media. We chose the Google Ron Paul message because
it is a call to action that people can do immediately; they cannot vote for a long time, and may
forget about him by then. When they Google him, they will get a lot more
info.

They say most people don't know who Ron Paul is. These are the people who are not on the internet (older folks, etc.)

So then you say "Google Ron Paul" to the people who do not use the internet?

Do you want to turn off all the people who hate politics?

If you do want to turn off all the people who hate politics then put the word president on there.

If you want to attract all the people who hate politics then don't mention anything about politics.

We see this as being HIGHLY EFFECTIVE in attracting new supporters.

The whole key is for this to be as EFFECTIVE as possible.

They list an email on the site -- if you truly think they are making a mistake contact them. I'm getting tired of all these threads complaining about this so much. I don't see what you think this thread is going to accomplish.

There might be a reason for that, election laws, but not sure.

So you're the marketing genius behind this.

Ok, i'm a bit frustrated and should take that back. But am i the only one who thinks these reasons are flawed?

 

[torchbearer]

Hating on the people who are actually doing something... yeh, that makes sense. You don't like the way its done, don't donate. Got suggestions or a problem? Email them at the contact info..

These threads are for flaming only.. I don't care for your excuses. People need to stop this kind of crap.

The whole point is to turn people onto politics and wake them up. It would be nice to be able to give children a toy blimp and show them that politics can be fun, and good guys win sometimes.

If you take that away, what do you have? That is what the revolution in love is. politics. (note the reversal this time).

We really need something about the election on there. I don't want people or our kids scared of mentioning it
anymore, like its beyond them. I want it in their grasp, like its part of them.

Please email the Blimp Management - they are responding.

You can now contact management via email at www.ronpaulblimp.com.

I finally got a response to an email I sent this morning saying why they should keep the original wording and NOT use "Who is Ron Paul".

They said:
Please see http://www.ronpaulblimp.com/Message...

This is what I sent to them again in reply:

This is bait and switch.

If you want the pledges to become payments, you need to stick with what was promised.

As Ron Paul would do.

If anyone doesn't know who RP is , they will ask.

If anyone does know, they will wonder why we still treat him as a nobody.

Sincerely
Stephanie Relfe

PLEASE EMAIL THEM WHAT YOU THINK OF THE NEW WORDING ON THE BLIMP.

These threads are for flaming only.

Maybe in your world. But one of the purposes of this forum is dicussion, feedback & constructive criticism.

 

[libertyanne]

I Agree!!!

Better think about that before getting committed to the blimp graphics.

People do not like bait and switch.

 

[libertyanne]

No. How do we KNOW these "experts" are all 100% commited to RP and not a spy?

 

[leipo]

Well, that seems a bit far-fetched.

 

[MozoVote]

I am clicking the "report" triangle on LibertyAnne's posts when she repeats this beef and urges people to complain to the blimp site. That is spam.

The dispute with the blimp organizers is for her to resolve with them, not for everyone else to take sides on.

Get the blimp to Boston by December 15th!! www.RonPaulBlimp.com

Optimism is fun... Try it!

Come on Elijah, your quote is my favorite on here. Let's be optimistic that people can be turned on by politics. We aren't running Rudy here, we have the real thing. We can mention Ron Paul as President.
