Operation iTunes Bomb! - How You Can Help Rocket Ron Paul to #No 1 in the Charts!!!

parocks said:
I've mentioned before, you aren't rocketing Ron Paul anywhere, unless Ron Paul is in the title. I just checked Itunes, and Ron Paul is not in the title.

This appears to be yet another waste of time / bait and switch / etc etc. It appears that way, but it might not be. I'm not saying it IS, I'm saying it APPEARS to be.

You might want to change the Subject of this thread, from "Ron Paul" to "Golden State". Because right now, it's dishonest.

The band have changes it. iTunes will have corrected it by the 16th. Therefore, it's a valuable use of time to spread the word in preparations for when the bomb starts en masse.

I'm not screaming (all caps) today the 12th. If the 16th rolls around, and the song title still reads just Bombs, then it'll be different then.
 
Two days to go so we need to ramp up promotion efforts. We need to start contacting pro Ron Paul and liberty orientated sites and ask them to put a banner up advertising the itunes bomb. We should contact all the sites in the Tea Party 11 coalition: http://www.teaparty11.com/coalition.php

They're probably waiting (smartly) for "Ron Paul" to appear in the official title of the Bombs song. It's 12/14, and "Ron Paul" is still not there.

If you're going "ramp up" anything, contact whoever it is who could change the official title of the song. As it stands now, these efforts are pointless.

You don't. The only people who would get it are people that don't lack critical thinking skills.
1. All over the internet in write ups they don't hide the fact they are Ron Paul fans.
2. They have teamed up with RevPac and have committed to donate the proceeds from iTunes sales.
3. Friday night they have posted on their Facebook page they are going to hang out with other Ron Paul supporters for the arrival of Ron Paul for the Jay Leno show and do a sing along and sign wave.
4. Talks are in the works of doing a show before the North Dakota Caucus
5. Let's say your assumption is true. It's a win-win for the Ron Paul Campaign. The video and song are getting rave reviews and Facebook shares are up over 3300. That is great publicity. Those that are buying the song are in some cases not knowingly donating money to the campaign. These are people that possibly have NEVER donated money to any candidate's campaign, but the song is emotionally making them buy it.
6. We may be gaining new Ron Paul fans just from the song and video alone. These may be people that are not strongly connected to politics but are inspired to look at him a little closer.

RDM explained it all very well above. Working with Golden state seems to be a net positive for Ron Paul regardless of whether golden state are pure hearted Ron Paul supporters doing this with no self interest or not.

That being said I would hope people would focus more on giving to the campaign during the money bomb tomorrow. I think we all want this to generate buzz and create more donations to the campaign rather than take away donations.
 
Ok, the code is pretty much finished, unless minor changes want to be made: http://ronpaulitunes.webs.com

This is the most basic coding for a webpage... there are no stylesheets applied, as I figured website owners would want to apply their own colors and text (CSS) to match their site.

This can easily be inserted into any website, between the BODY tags. I will post the code for that (to send to website owners, I am assuming?) once it gets looked over.

Agreed.
Thanks for your efforts.

This is the link for itunes. The one on page 1 is different.

This whole thing is all screwed up now because of a few people who tried to sabotage this promotion from the get go. Now you have two separate links to iTunes to purchase the song. One with Ron Paul in the title and the other without. The YouTube has the song listed with the old link and people are now going to promote the new link? So now there are going to be two separate sales tallies by iTunes with people buying from the old link and buying from the new link. Is iTunes going to combine the sales from both links to create one total in sales or separate? If they're separate, the song will never make the charts. This is what happens when you try to make one or two people happy to caress their egos. Rule of thumb. You can never make everyone happy. Goal is to make the majority happy.
