We have so much force
We can flood cspan 2 with positive ron paul phone calls
we can tip a poll in favor of ron paul within minutes
we can flood cnn and msnbcs email boxes...
YET we can't call the campaign and simply tell them how we feel and most importantly tell Ron Paul how much he is putting at risk in the hands of these people?

This isn't rocket science. Ron Paul is the only candidate opposing the war. Turning people against the war benefits him the most.
What is it you don't understand about that?

The campaign does not have to supply hi res images for a brochure. There are a ton of hi res Ron Paul and supporter images on google.
This type of griping is circular. If you cannot get something from one place get it from another.
One phrase for all the whiners. You want this country back? The Lord helps those who help themselves. i will be satisfied one way or another whether this is a win or not as we are putting out a very powerful message. The numbers will rise. i am not worried. But I have MY plan. Call it a faith based initiative if you will.

"...the firing of Campaign Manager John Sears and his aides Charles Black and James Lake. In each of his presidential bids, Reagan relied heavily on one adviser. Sears was the man in 1976, and Reagan chose him again last year, despite the objections of his more conservative friends and despite the fact that he did not much like Sears personally. Reagan was acting on the advice of his personal staff, particularly Mike Deaver, who deeply respected Sears' ability. So totally did Reagan rely on Sears last winter that he permitted him to eliminate two of the candidate's most loyal retainers, Lyn Nofziger and, of all people, Deaver. Not until his unexpected defeat in the Iowa caucuses in January did Reagan really rebel. He was also annoyed by the way the press was playing up Sears as a kind of Svengali, and the candidate as Trilby.
Five weeks of anguish followed, during which Reagan worked behind the scenes to reorganize his conflict-ridden staff. Sears ended up trying to fire Ed Meese, his last important rival in the entourage. Finally fed up, Reagan discharged Sears and purged the whole top echelon of his campaign staff on New Hampshire primary day in February.
Though that was a bold move, the long imbroglio and its aftermath raise some serious doubts about Reagan's ability to handle subordinates. After Sears left, Reagan for months was responsible for an untidy and ineffective operation.
The staff now seems better organized; it has been strengthened by the rehiring of Deaver and, more recently, Stuart Spencer

It's to late to change the campaign Super Tuesday is 30 days from now. Forget the campaign and have all meet-ups chip in and put full page ads in your local papers it’s cheap and hits older voters that actually turnout and vote after that canvass, canvass, canvass with voter registration cards, literature and DVDs that you can get cheap only 25 cents each from http://www.ronpaulreveres.com/

THE CAMPAIGN HAS ALL OUR MONEY
Contact them today. Tell them we want a grassroots liaison. They have 20 million, they can hire ONE extra person.
One of the reasons we placed 5th in Iowa is that the voter database DISAPPEARED the morning of the caucus. The file was corrupted and there was no backup. Tell me this is part of the grand "strategy"
We need to contact RP HQ and the senior leadership needs to shake things up here. Everyone I got on the phone in Arlington does not seem to give a fuck one way or the other about the campaign. They sound like they are putting in their resumes. Call them up. You can almost feel the apathy through the telephone. Something needs to change.

If they can't make the change on time (although we have been asking for more competence for months! ), then let's find a way to get the money we donated to them for our grassroots efforts.
ANYTHING is better than that inept, moronic, idiotic Official Campaign.

If they were a poor campaign I would agree with this 100%. However, they now have 20 million dollars and they are not showing it.
