Is this guy a plant?

[RonPaulFever]

A couple of days ago, this crazy-looking fellow shows up here at the campaign office asking to help out....today, he's been out front ALL DAY holding a Ron Paul sign and looking completely batshit insane. We've attracted our fair share of weirdos, but this seems odd to me. Is it possible he was paid to do this by another campaign? What can I do to get him to leave?

Absolutely a plant ! Just go outside, tell him you need to take the sign and put it elsewhere, hand him a bumper sticker and thank him.

 

[ClayTrainor]

What exactly is he doing that's so insane?.

 

[Wolf]

I don't know how you should go about it, but you really should get him to leave.

 

[RPsupporterAtHeart]

Well you have to clarify exactly what he is doing that is insane.


Some people are just weird. If he's a plant, get a bat

Plant or not, it certainly doesn't sound like he's helping our cause. Send him on a coffee run, then send him to buy paper clips, then tell him the paper clips are the wrong size and send him back for bigger ones, etc..........

Ask him about the CFR.

I doubt he's a plant.

 

[Lord Xar]

he just looks cuddly and warm.

If he is just out there being a walking billboard, whats the problem.

IS he doing anything "weird"?

It's about 70 degrees outside.

One of my friends drove by earlier, then called me and asked "Who's the crazy Vietnam guy standing outside the office?"

 

[Wolf]

He's not weird. It's cold out. And people are only going to see him as they drive past.

Edit: Oh, it's not cold out... Maybe bring it up jokingly. Why the coat/hat? You're scaring away prospective voters.

Is he from the equator or something? Maybe he really is cold?

Maybe he's not a plant, maybe he's just been smokin' some plant!!!!

Seriously, though, if you don't think he's a good representative for the campaign, just find something else for him to do that will make him feel useful......let him stuff some envelopes in the back room, or in the room behind the back room.....or do ya'll have a basement perhaps????

 

[Vox Populi]

You should call the insane asylum an have him arrested for looking kooky! That'll teach those Ron Paul supporters not to look kooky. If that doesn't work, call FEMA and have him sent to a FEMA camp.

Wait, who's the plant?

 

[HappyJack]

Explain the problem to him, 70+hat+coat=shithouse rat crazy Then find him something to do, without sharp objects.

Good suggestion. Give him something else to do.

 

[dsentell]

Quick!

Think of something of the utmost importance that must be done AND he is the only one who can do it!

 

[Soccrmastr]

Nah thats fine. He's getting the word out. Have him do more productive stuff though dude!
