The Revolution won't get very far, if we don't continue to promote it with future candidates, campaign managers, lobbyists and activists.

Here is a great opportunity to improve upon the great skills we already have.

There is an old saying, "Political technology determines political success."

Good people and good technology determine how well we will do in politics.

If you believe in your ideology, you owe it to yourself and your beliefs to attend this class.

I bought a ticket and encourage others to take advantage of this deal, $25 for a day of learning and networking with serious activists...

I hope to see people there, (and if some folk can afford the ticket, but not the time, perhaps they could sponsor someone? Investments in activists usually have great dividends )

Lets make this first attempt, at a grassroots organized seminar, a rousing success.

It'll be money well spent...

bump for school

Many posters think being right is enough to win in politics. This is wrong.

Usually it is the side with the most educated activists who are the most proficient with campaign technology.

If people really want to see a change they either should attend the school, or sponsor a scholarship for the school or donate to the school to help make it happen.

Otherwise, the Ron Paul movement will have a difficult time winning future elections.

While the Ron Paul campaign may have set records for fundraising this past election cycle, the Freedom Movement is in serious jeopardy.

In less than six months, Obama and his big government control freaks may control the two most important branches of government.

For the first time in fourteen years, these people will try to impose a massive government healthcare system and take away your health freedom or whats left of it.

Obama will raise taxes to fund their pet government projects.

Obama will clamp down on media freedom by imposing the fairness doctrine. The few semi freedom loving radio talk show hosts might get booted off the air.

Obama will flood the country with socialist leaning illegal immigrants who will become voters and make a permanent socialist majority.

Obama will try to limit school choice and put more restrictions on guns.


Do you want to know the secrets why a newcomer like Obama newly elected in 2004 beat former first lady Hillary Clinton who had been preparing to run for president for eight years and had national connections with supporters for decades?

What was Obama's secret weapon?

Campaign Schools to train his activists. He out organized his opponents with a highly trained army of political volunteers.

Camp Obama training schools were held around the country.

These are just a few of reasons we should be supporting and attending this school.



Make the time right now to sign up for the school. If you are serious about helping Ron Paul supporters win, you need to attend this school or help others who can attend this school.
