run ads on NYT, USA Today

I would love to but I am not in a financial position to do so. I feel bad about that, but we all do what we can. I have given him the maximum campaign donation and have made lots of small contributions to projects. You need to understand that I am not that rich. Yes, I am comfortable, but spending $200,000 on ads in USA Today and the NYT was a HUGE commitment for me. Really not something I could ever repeat easily. Arguably what I did was crazy (ask my wife and three kids), but I felt like at the time he needed the help, and I wanted to make a mark. We did have the largest one day fundraiser in history off of that ad. When I see how well he has done, and how the ideas have caught on and spread, I never once have regreted the decision to spend the money. I sincerely hope he wins but the size of the whole thing is beyond me now. What I can give today does not move the needle.

Overall I am so encouraged and proud of Ron and my fellow supporters. Over 50% of the youth vote in Iowa went to RP. We are the ultimate growth stock. Just give us time and we will win. The fourth turning that we are currently undergoing is going to be EPIC. Think American Revolution like. God bless the new young generation that is going to pick up this torch and run with it, and doom on all my fellow baby boomer co-horts who are part of the problem, not part of the solution.

Keep fighting, we are right, therefore we will win. I feel it very deeply.

I don't feel any volunteer, especially a generous one, should be called out like that.

I appreciate every little thing that you've done in the past and continue to do.

Thank you.

I am still in awe if what you did, +rep.

 

[Romulus]

You are the man, LLepard!

 

[Maximilian American]

Thank you LLepard for being apart of the cause.

 

[RonPaulGetsIt]

Ill always remember what you did. And thank you again.

Same here.

 

[Aratus]

Llepard, when Rand Paul decided to run for Jim Bunnings seat, he wanted everyone
to feel that the 30 million dollars spent in 2007 was an investment for tomorrow
and that he was intending to complete what his father had started. today it
feels like 2010 was a dress rehersal for 2012 & part of the learning curve.

 

[aowen]

llepard, I just wrote a paragraph praising you but deleted it. There's no need. The kind of satisfaction that I hope you receive from how much you have benefited liberty would dwarf anything I could add to it on an interweb forum. Calling you, and those like you, great Americans degrades, in my opinion, your importance to the human species and The World at large. THANKS!

 

[undergroundrr]

I still have the USA Today Thanksgiving ad.

 

[mosquitobite]

I still have the USA Today Thanksgiving ad.

And on it- the PROOF that LLepard pretty much advertised the tea party - and all claims of anyone else starting the tea party fly out the window

 

[parocks]

That USA Today ad was definitely one of the big things of 2007. The open source nature was key. For some reason, 4 years later, we don't do that any more.
