This is what I want to see on January 3rd, but it seems many of you have taken on the careless attitude that we have already won Iowa. I've seen it all over the forum and it's disappointing to me. I keep seeing people trying to tell the campaign to air the Gingrich ad in Iowa and New Hampshire, yet they don't seem to understand that in order to do this the campaign needs funding. This means YOU need to Help Promote the Dec 16th Tea Party Money Bomb.
I'm tired of hearing the excuses for why we can't raise enough money. I've heard them all a million times, money bomb fatigue, the economy, people are maxed out, etc... While there may be some truth to all of these things, it all comes down to the fact that promotion is what makes these bombs huge. I sought out to prove everybody wrong with Black This Out. I said that all we needed to do to create another huge money bomb was to promote it like HELL! And guess what, we had our largest day of the year by raising almost $3 million dollars!
Then with 11/11/11 everybody got lazy again and so that bomb turned into a bust. We weren't able to make enough people aware of it to make a difference. I tried the best I could to get people back into promotion mode for 11/11/11, but it was like pulling teeth, so I eventually gave up and just let it fail. The Tea Party Money Bomb is coming up soon and while there are more people energized and wanting to promote this time, it's not nearly the amount of people we had promoting Black This Out. 99% of the people that visit this forum avoid all the money bomb promotion threads. Why do you think I titled the thread the way I did? Nobody would look at it if I mentioned the money bomb. It's always the same four or five people posting that understand how urgent it is to promote. I wonder how many new people will post in this thread.
I DON'T CARE IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE MONEY. YOU CAN STILL DONATE YOUR TIME TO PROMOTION. (Not angry here, just stressing a point) As you can clearly see by the result of 11/11/11, promotion is KEY! Without everyone on this forum rallying behind the Tea Party Money Bomb, it will fail right when the campaign needs the money the most. Can you afford to let this happen? Why isn't the campaign releasing the Gingrich ad on TV in Iowa and New Hampshire like many want them to? Why is it only a web ad? We don't know, but my guess is that the campaign is running low on funds and is trying to stretch their money by getting free advertising by the media through the shock value of their new video. It seems to have worked, but what the campaign really needs is an injection of funds so that they're prepared for Iowa and New Hampshire.
Again, all this requires is your time. No money is needed to promote, so no more excuses. Making these bombs huge has everything to do with notifying as many Ron Paul supporters as possible. Without the participation by all of you on the level of Black This Out, Dec 16th will go down in history as the day the grassroots failed Ron Paul and America because they were too busy posting on RonPaulForums. Can you allow this to happen when it takes so little effort to help out? All it takes is to spend one hour a day helping to spread the word. Below is the new email I and WD-NY worked on. It was sent out through both the Black This Out and Tea Party email lists. Please read it and go to the Promotion Guide to help out.
