Thanks for the comments, everyone. My understanding is that GMA is doing this as part of their Super Tuesday coverage; it’s not specifically about Ron Paul, and there will be other campaigns. With that in mind, it’s important to show up, so Ron Paul’s support can be seen, and it’s also important to present a welcoming face for the Ron Paul movement. Imagine someone tuning in to GMA and seeing Ron Paul signs for the first time. You don’t want their first exposure to Ron Paul and Ron Paul supporters to be a lot of complaints. So: keep the message positive, keep it pro-Ron Paul. You’ll be reaching a lot of new viewers who will judge Dr. Paul based on what they see of his supporters.
