The media is trying to taint this movement by painting its supporters as crazy or vicious. It would be the ultimate travesty if they succeeded in that, because I would like this movement to stick together and be an be an effective influence long into the future.
So I've had an idea. An idea which could be as effective as any money bomb in terms of raising awareness of Ron Paul, that would simultaneously be great PR for RP and his supporters.
I suggest that we organize a national Ron Paul food drive.
Here is how it might look: Thousands of Ron Paul supporters all around the nation would go out on a predetermined day (or days) to collect canned goods from people in their neighborhood. In the process of doing this good deed, those same Ron Paul supporters would take the opportunity to tell their neighbors about Ron Paul and why he would be the best president. You see, when we ask people to vote for Ron Paul, we are basically asking them to become one of us. But in order to make that sell, we have to be the kind of people anyone would want to be. I think that a massive grassroots act of charity in Ron Paul's name would be just the thing to supply that context. It is also an opportunity to show how people who don't believe in huge government intend to pick up the responsibility of caring for our neighbors.
We would have to work out some details and do it in a way that generates publicity. I think that can certainly be done. At this stage this is just an idea, but if anyone has any feedback or would like to work with me to make this happen, I would like to hear from you.
Another possibility could be a "Giving Blood for Freedom" day, which I'm sure we could work with the Red Cross to help us publicize.
Any other ideas along these lines? Would anyone like to help me to make an idea like this happen?
