EDIT: THIS HAS BEEN BURIED!

 

[LibertyCzar]

If we are to Digg this, we should forget about all other Ron Paul Digg subjects today, just focusing on this one issue.

 

[LibertyCzar]

Secondary Digg story, because some will be buried before we are successful:

BURIED

 

[LibertyCzar]

http://www.digg.com/2008_us_elections/Petition_to_Invite_Ron_Paul_to_Iowa_Debate BURIED

It is at 41 current Diggs. We really need to get something on the front page. BURIED

 

[LibertyCzar]

This is a new one: http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/Petition_to_Invite_GOP_Ron_Paul_to_Iowa_Debate BURIED

But please keep Digging all others that have not yet been buried. Also, try not to succumb to the bait by commenting. Don't even give the thumbs down to negative comments. The submissions are self evident, especially by now.

Once something is comfortably popular, without much risk of being Buried, then we can start commenting.

EDIT: ALL SUBMISSIONS UP TO THIS POINT HAVE BEEN BURIED!

 

[LibertyCzar]

I'm guessing that the support for getting a Digg story about this issue is not sufficient. But here's another Digg story just started: http://www.digg.com/2008_us_elections/Ron_Paul_Excluded_From_Iowa_Forum

BURIED

Imagine if you spent the time wasted influencing 14 year olds on Digg instead on telling five people everyday actually eligble to vote in the real world why you support Ron Paul.

I'd say Digg covers less than .1% of the eligible voting population. Wouldn't it be wise to broaden the focus?

 

[LibertyCzar]

How is abandoning Digg broadening the focus? It sounds like replacing the focus. Besides, I'd hardly say that Digg is an adolescent only website.

I'm doing my part in this. The fact that it is such a struggle should say something. Now are we going to let them say they turned back a Ron Paul effort on Digg?

Edit: the role models we fashion Ron Paul after would not surrender any venue. Period. Leave that to the Democrats choosing not to debate on Fox News.

How does "Digg" work?

It looks like a story can just get buried for no reason.

 

[angrydragon]

digg is somewhat odd. I'm just learning myself.

The one quoted is still there. Here is another one, posted at about 3:30 pm eastern time: http://www.digg.com/2008_us_electio...UL_FROM_DEBATE_WORKS_FOR_JOHN_MCCAIN_CAMPAIGN BURIED

As long as we are respectful in the comments area, and I think that should be completely neglected, this is doing the right thing.

NOPE! Even if only one in ten Diggers (of 20 million) are eligible voters, that is still 2 Million, which is more than 1%. And Digg continues to grow in popularity.

LibertyCzar, what's your Digg ID? I need to add you as a Digg friend.

I am AnObserver.

I just checked, and realized you can have friends on Digg.
