Peter Thiel gives another $1.7 million to Ron Paul Super PAC (Endorse Liberty)

[bbwarfield]

the creation of the first ULTRA-PAC all joining together in a corporate structure with specific department..... endorse liberty will be come internet marketing.... revpac will be split between Media and grass root supplies..... and santa rosa? dept of things that make people go "hwa?" (okay im not sure but everyone always mentioned there name was weird and the tag at the end of adds was illegible/looked like something youd see at the end of a video ment for a memorial)

not gonna happen but it would let people donate to "specific" things but leave make some funds more fungeable

Hey Everybody

The article says the money was donated in early January. That means it was already spent. There is nothing to see here.

This mayn't go down too well with ultra-conspiracy-nuts & it just so happens that many of them are Paul-supporters because he's not part of the whole bilderbergers, CFRs, etc etc thing, whatever it is So this donation might cause some backlash on Paul from conspiracy-nuts, I've already seen too many idiots saying "everything is planned & hence so is Paul, he's Jesuit (or mason or whatever they go crazy about )", even if a kitty is stuck on a tree, they think even that could be part of some grand-conspiracy

I don't think all Bilderberg attendees are evil, bloodsucking scum

Bohemian Grove on the other hand........

dunno that I'd call that a "game changer", though it should be a great help

a lot of Thiel-watchers just got their wish

this, and in tune with Ron's message.

But the last few things RevPak did were absolutely wonderful, the ads Corey et al did.

Three cheers for Thiel!

--
edit - however, it is to ENDORSE LIBERTY not RevPak, so how can it be the game changer for RevPak? Also, I agree it might already have been spent, but maybe not all.

I don't mean any offense to Endorse Liberty PAC, but, RevolutionPAC's ads are better . . . more professional looking. Endorse Liberty has put out a good 15 minutes long (!!!!) ad on youtube, maybe too long, but it gets the point across.
I've said it before and I'll say it again:

That santa rita PAC ads were the best of the bunch with the most bang for your buck.

Rita if it is still going is the only one doing tv ads targeting the 70% of GOP primary voters (older folks) who are NOT getting their news on the internet. Frankly, given Ron's dominance of the internet, they seem to be the one best targeting his marketing gap.

Didn't Thiel donate $900,000 not long ago? So is this another 1.7 mil on top of the previous donation?

It would seem so.

Some of you are such whiners! haha, good God.

He gave them the money, let them figure out what to do with it.

They're not stupid.

ATTENTION PEOPLE OF EARTH

Read the damn article. For the millionth time, this was money donated in early January. It's just now being reported. That money was likely spent long ago.

Thiel is a cool f'n dude. that's 2.6 million he's donated to Ron Paul Pac's this cycle.

 

[coffeewithchess]

Well, the good news is that with Google TV ads, for about $10,000 (depending on video editing/production costs, could be a lot less) 5 million more Americans can see commercials helping wake them up, I would say that's a minimal cost.

it won't happen it was spent on web ads watched by us, likely. I don't get why they thought Ron needed most more exposure on the internet, but there it is, it was their money:

Thiel donated $1.7 million to the so-called super-PAC, according to a report the group filed today with the U.S. Federal Election Commission. Endorse Liberty spent more than $2.9 million during the month and ended up with $60,181 in cash.

Billionaire PayPal Founder Peter Thiel Donates Another $1.7 MILLION to Pro-Paul SuperPAC

http://money.cnn.com/2012/02/20/news/economy/peter_thiel_ron_paul/

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Silicon Valley renaissance man Peter Thiel donated another $1.7 million in January to a super PAC that backs Ron Paul, according to disclosure documents filed Monday.

The PayPal co-founder donated $1 million on January 3, and followed that up 10 days later with an additional $700,000 gift.

The donations, disclosed in Federal Election Commission filings, account for almost 75% of the $2.3 million collected by the Endorse Liberty super PAC last month.

They aren't the first donations from the entrepreneur, venture capitalist and hedge fund manager.

Thiel made donations of $150,000 and $750,000 to the super PAC in December, gifts that were disclosed in the committee's year-end filing.

Thiel is the co-founder of PayPal and worth about $1.5bn.
