If the MSM won't cover RP, maybe a negative money bomb?

Actually, Huckleberry got his surge in could be labeled as a "quarterback sneak". He hooked up with a marketing guy that was involved with the Mel Gibson movie "Passion of the Christ". This guy had collected millions of email addresses of conservative Christians across the nation and he provided his list to Huckleberry's campaign. That's where the surge came from.

If you really believe the Old Media is unbiased, you need to spend some more time in these forums. Wake up. Don't be a sheeple.

I agree that we need to be civil. It would be good to give the Old Media a little time to get their stories together. RP's campaign hasn't even had their press conference yet. Should happen in about 40 mins. But it would be irresponsible of us not to consider all options available to us. It is a free market after all.

yeah. do not attack the "old media"... many of us are still confused with the exact amount that we raised... think about how little they know at the moment... just give it time.

"If you really believe the Old Media is unbiased, you need to spend some more time in these forums. Wake up. Don't be a sheeple."

I am a libertarian, leaning to anarchism. I am about as far from being a sheep as it is possible to be. Nor do I believe the media is unbiased.

Your post in reponse to mine is a perfect example of the kind of thing I am talking about. Look how quick you were with the name calling and the insulting tone.

It is as if people have no idea how to be civil.

Paul's supporters are partly responsible for the manner in which he is portrayed (or not portrayed) in the media, and if you don't understand that then the potential exists for you to be a part of the problem, rather than the solution.

if you think tiffany's is a good start i'm open

I don't know that much about them or what they have done, but I would like to read about them and see if they are truly complicit in the blackout. If they are, and you think they are a good target, let's discuss the possibility. Post some links for us all to read.

I'm itchin' for action!

I just want this man to have equal coverage to any other candidate. I want him in office. I want political reform...but we have to be smart. The media is bought and paid for, forget about them. The ONLY way to get his message out to the masses is to do it ourselves. The blimp, the Tea party, and so on. Once the masses are aware then the effect will just snowball. Next, we have to make sure that our votes actually count. Fair elections that can be proven have been near extinction for nearly 20 years...it's going to be hard to resurrect them. If we can spend billions PER MONTH for defense from foreign enemies, then we can spend a few hundred million PER YEAR to ensure our protection from domestic enemies. Paper ballots, counted by local citizens in full view of the public. NOT the computer voting machines they use to "tally" the votes behind closed doors nowadays. (All computers can be hacked, trust me, I have an MCSE in computer networking. (Thank you, GI Bill!)) Once we know our votes actually are being counted correctly, we can then elect our chosen leader w/ confidence. But I'm ready to strap on my boots and hit the streets for campaign reform and for Ron Paul. Whatever it takes, petitions, letters to congressmen, whatever...action equals results. Talking about it does nothing but fuel the fires. Well, the fire is ready...it's time to start cooking! I'm new to taking action in the political arena, so any advise from those a bit more savvy than I would be welcome. But I'm here, and ready to fight!

media blitz

If ya'll are tired of the Old Media playbook, it's time for us to be heard. Go to http://www.blitzthemedia.com/ and volunteer. The only way to get to the Old Media is to get to their pocketbooks and their bottom lines. We need to let them know who holds the purse strings. Just don't forget - BE NICE! Don't give Ron Paul's campaign a bad name. LET'S DO THIS. WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE WITH THE MEDIA.

Johnpp2 - Tiffany's was just an example of an advertiser on Time.com. We need to research. Check out mediablitz.com they're already up and running. Tell everyone you know.

VeteranDave - some of us have begun work on developing an effort to address the election fraud problems. When I get a chance later, I'll shoot you a pm in order to keep in contact. We will need to do this from the bottom up. Campaign wants nothing to do with the effort.

How about trying to select a day that we all don't spend money? We pack our lunch to work, make sure we top off the gas tank the night before, whatever. We don't even have to inconvenience ourselves that much, just pick one day and stock up in advance for it.
