NEWSPAPER AD: last minute push: You in or out??

[Lord Xar]

Say NO to War, Amnesty, and Taxes
Say YES to Limited Government, Secure Borders, and Liberty
Vote RON PAUL in the Ames Straw Poll


Is that what we are going with?

NOW, give me the verbage for 1500+ supporters if needed, and I will put ron pauls website.. some folks will not have time to google, or even know what that is..

 

[LibertyEagle]

PLEASE DO NOT SPECIFY THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE PICTURE. It will imply that those are the total number of people who support Ron Paul!!!!

 

[Spirit of '76]

people, it is MUCH TOO LATE in the game for me to change up the images.. I am sorry...

we have to go with the mosaic overlayed on the constitution... That is what i have the designer working with 2 hours left..

Ah... There'd been so much back and forth over whether or not to use the Constitution image, that I didn't realize it had already been decided.

I ONLY NEED BULLETED POINTS AND what verbage to say about the 1500+ supporters...

Man, I'd stop asking and just go with whatever you think is right. There are too many injuns here and not enough chiefs...

Looks good to me. Can you make the last line larger than the other two?

NOW, give me the verbage for 1500+ supporters if needed

"This image is made up of and this ad was paid for by ordinary Americans who support Ron Paul."

It relays three pieces of information:
1) Yes, those are photos of Ron Paul supporters that make up the mosaic.
2) Yes, this ad was created and paid for by Ron Paul supporters.
3) Yes, Ron Paul supporters are ordinary Americans like you.

and I will put ron pauls website.. some folks will not have time to google, or even know what that is..

I personally wouldn't put the official campaign website. In fact, I wouldn't put anything regarding the internet. This ad is to show REAL Americans in support of Ron Paul (as opposed to those crazy fanatics that surf the web 24/7).

If people are interested in reading more about Ron Paul, and if they have access to the internet, they'll find him.

 

[specsaregood]

Xar you are chief. scibbler bullets. website
Do not say 1500.
Go deliver the ad get yourself a beer.

 

[Spirit of '76]

hahahahahah.. yes.

[Lord Xar]

NOW, give me the verbage for 1500+ supporters if needed, and I will put ron pauls website.. some folks will not have time to google, or even know what that is..

"This image is composed of, and this ad paid for by, ordinary Americans that support Ron Paul."


About the URL: I think that anyone that can navigate a web browser to the URL will also know what google is. "Google" has entered the popular vernacular as a verb. But this is my final comment on the matter.

 

[BLS]

No problem. I can make it smaller. You want it as is or generic, non time/location specific?

Which ever is easiest for you.

 

[ronpaulitician]

what about the BLURB underneath the mosaic/constitution backdrop???

... that 4 line blurb about us supporting ron paul.

The customized preamble?

I like it, but I'd go with original capitalization, and follow text to the letter:

...of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do hereby support RON PAUL for President of these United States of America.

 

[ronpaulitician]

"This image is composed of, and this ad paid for by, ordinary Americans that support Ron Paul."

Agree. The commas improve the readability of this sentence.

 

[Scribbler de Stebbing]

PLEASE DO NOT SPECIFY THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE PICTURE. It will imply that those are the total number of people who support Ron Paul!!!!

Thank you. No need even to imply that they are Americans instead of Iowans. Let the picture speak for itself.

 

[thomj76]

So do we have a link to the final image?

Great going last night, too. I believe the framework was laid for future projects to go much more smoothly.

 

[Scribbler de Stebbing]

The customized preamble?

Do you guys really think it's a good idea to "change the Constitution?"

 

[Lord Xar]

END THE THREAD! ITS DONE.... DOING IT NOW. WILL POST SHORTLY.

PLEASE NO MORE POSTS UNTIL I POST. I AM SORRY. ITS UNORGANIZED RIGHT NOW AND I NEED TO GET MY BEARINGS.

 

[G-khan]

Do you guys really think it's a good idea to "change the Constitution?"

No bad idea IMO

 

[ronpaulitician]

Do you guys really think it's a good idea to "change the Constitution?"

Yes. I want the 14th Amendment gone

Not sure on this one.

I really, really, like the backdrop of the Constitution. It's just such a nice image that I think it'd be a shame not to use it just because we're afraid people will be upset at the image and/or text of the Constitution being tarnished.

 

[Scribbler de Stebbing]

I'm okay with this one. Or the reduced bullets, but skipping the preamble. I'd say at this point, let's get out of Xar's hair. (BUT don't say 1500 Americans! LOL)

Ok, enough messing around. Here's this if you want to use it:
