Paul Festival just might help get more delegates

[sailingaway]

It's only like the Rally for the Republic in that it takes place near and around the time of the republican convention. It's a festival in every sense of the word, with some education mixed in, and it's non-profit. We're looking into finding out how to give the campaign any remaining funds after the event.

then it should absolutely have Ron's name, and I support it. Delegates will go somewhere, and Sarah P intends to have convention space, as I have heard.

Sorry, I thought it was earlier. There have been a lot of 'band show' ideas. I agree having a positive presence near the RNC is a great idea. You might want to make sure you have a campaign contact so you can coordinate with any ideas they might be pursuing for a campaign event or presence.

Is it going to be like PorcFest, with things for thekids and all?

 

[newbitech]

I SPECIFICALLY clarified that my intent was NOT to undermine the festival, but to PASS ALONG PERTINENT INFORMATION.






There are also Majority Opinion People who disparage ANYTHING said by Members Non Grata.

"Nothing positive", as POSITIVE is defined by Moderation Slant, and NOTHING TO FORWARD THE CAUSE are not the same thing.

I confess, I am not in a festive mood...this entire millennium.

Shirley MacLaine, Steel Magnolias: I'm not crazy...I've just been in a very bad mood for 40 years."




Guilty, as charged.





Ron Paul Forum Members who are in good standing with the MAJORITY OPINION on Ron Paul Forums are NOT the only Americans with skin in this game.

I invite a few people with Join Dates PRECEDING mine to weigh in on whether the INFORMATION I PASSED ALONG is pertinent...or superfluous negativity.

you should leave this thread alone.

you should leave this thread alone.

Jeepers newbitech, two days and 23 posts later without ONE from me, I AGREE.

The question was whether the information I introduced is PERTINENT, however un-positive.

 

[jordie]

Agreed. It reeks of hero worship.

Says the person posting on "Ron Paul Forums"

 

[speciallyblend]

I second that! +REP

lately it does not matter if we have good news or not, someone on rpf seems to want to crap on it, seems to be the memo lately on everything. it has limited what i post or do on rpf for sure. i have found the daily paul not to be so negative lately like rpf something needs to be done about it asap!

Let's get some re-enactors and a cannon

Do you think we could recruit some revolutionary war re-enactors to bring out a cannon and fire it off?

I'm not sure how far the location chosen for this is from the GOP National Convention, but could you imagine the sound of a cannon echoing through downtown Tampa? (well, the soundwaves might break some windows, so maybe we should not take a cannon downtown, lol)

(listen for the echo in this video, and then imagine a bunch of establishment republicans soiling their pants, lol)



Kids like cannons. I like cannons. Let's bring a cannon.

when i did bonnie cannon's wedding we had an old civil war cannon that was shot. IT WAS KEWLLLLLLL!!!! plus loud niceeeee establishment soiled pants sounds like a great idea. instead of a blimp maybe fly a drone around tampa. To remind the gop est to nominate Paul. If the military can fly drones? why cannot WE!!!

Did you read the "requirements" to hold this in the state of Florida anytime near the RNC?? Heck they were specifiying what diamiter of wood or plastic would be allowed. They're not going to allow cannons (real or fake) or muskets (sp) or anything of that nature.

You spelled muskets correctly.

the pertinent information will stand on it's own merits, you are arguing for no reason thus distracting the thread from possibly consuming that information in a CONSTRUCTIVE way.

Post the good stuff, ie pertinent info, and let it be. That is all.

Doug Wead is our contact.

Yep. We intend to have a kids area. It will be family oriented during the day. All adult oriented comedy, music, speeches, etc. will be during the evening hours.

ROFL! I'd love to see a re-enactment! Great idea! Do you have any leads or info on how to pursue this?

 

[Warrior_of_Freedom]

how many delegates are there total?

2286 and 1144 are needed to win. There are 521 up for grabs AT the convention, and then there's Santorum's delegates:

 

[Tinnuhana]

You need to get White down there with his balloons.

 

[G-Wohl]

Agreed. It reeks of hero worship.

And what is wrong with that? Ron Paul has lived a heroic life.

I would come, and I'm from Michigan!
