Wow that took a long time and a lot of effort to read through 31 pages of questions, not to mention the repeated questions lol!
Now I have a question, what was all that money spent on?!
lol
joking.....
I do have a few questions though.
1. Is Ron Paul actually ready and willing to lead a revolutionary freedom movement in our country?
Because thats what we're heading towards faster and faster everyday, and Ron doesn't seem to be willing to lead it really in my opinion. Maybe he is, I don't know, he does seem to want a march to come together, but he like a lot of other people doesn't seem to want to give this revolution true leadership, and every revolution has had a leader that its followers looked to for leadership and inspiration such as Martin Luther King or George Washington. It seems like to me sometimes Ron wants everyone to just vote in libertarian minded people to the government to fix everything, and thats just not going to happen without a movement behind it with a leader to keep the movement going, or that he wants someone else to step up to fill his shoes, which would be fine if he would just make it clear to everyone that supports him as to who that could possibly be.
2. Can someone get some heart and fire back into Ron Paul lol?
For a very brief period of time he changed and really believed he could change the country after I think the tea party if I remember correctly. At least it seemed that way to me. It was around the debate when he called his campaign a revolution. It was like he doubted he could really do anything, but wanted to put his ideas out there, then really got emboldened and believed he could do it, and then went to not believing he can do it but that it can be done I guess now.
3. Why do you think the campaign wasted money running television ads in SC the last week or two weeks before our primary?
SC was generally ignored compared to some other candidates, with the exception of a great mailing effort, and SC was never a state Paul was likely to win anyway since its probably the biggest pro-war state in the country lol. Then ignoring it mostly lowered Paul's chances even more, so it seems a waste to spend that money to me. I would have thought the wisest strategy in SC would have been to either campaign hard in SC and NH from the start, but in SC mainly run an attack campaign attacking Romney and Huckabee since they did seem early on likely to win SC, and hope to split the vote and gain enough votes to win the state over them as a result of voters just not liking any candidates that much, which did actually happen here in my opinion. Or the other strategy, which I thought the campaign had taken, would have been to basically ignore SC and save the money for other places, which probably would have been the way to go in my opinion.
I don't see where mail fliers, radio, and a tiny bit but of course still expensive tv advertising was worth the cost in SC since it was a small chance to start with that was then cut even smaller by ignoring it.
I mean you know why McCain won here despite tons of people hating him here? Because he campaigned very, very hard here. All I ever heard about McCain was how he was either in New Hampshire or South Carolina. He spoke at places within an hour of me many, many times compared to Paul once. And thats why Romney lost, because he gave up in SC and started ignoring it like our campaign did.
