RADIO ADS: ANTE UP NOW! - lets do this!

If you're doing, say 4 ads on WHO, go one in each time slot, hit all the listeners.

What do you guys think, 60-second ads for just a little more? For example, a total of six 60-second ads or a total of eight 30-second ads for roughly the same money. Which is better?

Sixty second ads. We need to say as much as we can about him. :D
 
Okay everyone... Can we start formulating the script NOW...

Post it here.. A person posted a great ad a few weeks ago that was from "someone else" It was very poignant.. can someon repost that here..
 
ok. I am going thru voiceovers now and the men sound good, but this one woman sounds very infectious.. makes me want to listen...... but perhaps we should go with a mans voice.
 
There is only one candidate running for president who . . .

[insert never voted for tax increase, etc.]

Congressman Ron Paul.

When you vote in the Straw Poll on August 11, vote for the candidate who will defend our borders, not Iraq's.

Ron Paul. Restore the Republic.

Paid for by Americans for Liberty or whatever. Not associated with any candidate . . . (whatever language is required).

Just some ideas. With all of us throwing stuff in the pot, something great will come out.
 
Didn't someone say sometime back that they were working with a copy editor, or something like that, to put this thing together?

Pretty good script
Anyone know what the main issues are for Iowa?

advice for political ads: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2519/is_7_23/ai_90702311
It's for TV but really applies to radio too

these are winning issues
1.) Ron Paul has never voted for a tax increase in 20 years
2.) Didn't he receive an A+ rating on gun rights?
3.) Protect our borders
4.) Is pro-life big in Iowa?
5.) Honesty. Not 'politics as usual' kind of candidate.
 
Also a winning issue: Bring our troops home and save America's heroes from this endless civil war. Bring our troops home to have a strong army to protect America and its borders. Ron Paul will HUNT DOWN OSAMA BIN LADEN!


maybe end with "Are you tired of broken promises?" or "Tired of politics as usual?...Vote Ron Paul"
 
Don't forget to throw in the website address.

There is only one candidate running for president who . . .

[insert never voted for tax increase, etc.]

Congressman Ron Paul. As an ob/gyn, Ron Paul delivered over 4,000 babies. Ron Paul would appoint judges to overturn Roe v Wade.

Ron Paul believes we should have gone after Osama Bin Laden, and that we should not be borrowing money from China to fight a UN war. He believes we should defend OUR borders, not Iraq's.

Google Ron Paul or visit RonPaul2008.com. Cast your vote for Ron Paul in the Straw Poll in Ames August 11.

How much can we fit in 60 seconds?
 
I think it was on this board that I was reading about the Iowans response to the Call Iowa program. I think that was how I found this board. I was looking for information on what would appeal to voters in Iowa since I had signed up for it. I think it was called Operation Spooner before the HQ took it over or something - I don't know, I didn't even know who Ron Paul was back then.

In that thread people were sharing what had received the strongest response. I think the message said something about pro-life being popular (Personally, I'm pro-choice, but if people who were calling Iowans are getting responses with that, maybe it's worth taking a look at. You have to market to your target audience, I guess.)

Also what received a response was the hypocisy surrounding the whole issue of the troops being in Iraq, supposedly to defend our country, & yet removing our troops from our own border. I think they liked the idea of bringing the troops home and protecting our border.

Also, it was stated they are big into family values. (Personally, the one clincher that sold me on Ron Paul was that he's big into family values. The day I found out he had been married to his wife for 50+ years was the day I became a Ron Paul junkie. That's committment. I thought to myself, Any man who can make a woman happy for 50+ years deserves my vote. Of course, I love everything else about him, but that caused me to fall in-love.) I'm not saying this should necessarily be included but maybe including something on family values would be good. I don't know.
 
Good. Insert somewhere in there (maybe before delivered over 4,000 babies) that he has been married to the same woman for over 50 years. Good contrast with Benito and the trophy's husband.

Maybe even add that he has 5 children and how many grandchildren... 19? Talk about family values.
 
Why not say "There is only one candidate that has been married to the same woman for 50 years".

Although that's true, people in their minds are going to think you're parsing words, defining what is is. Then they'll deduct credibility points. Besides, it's more syllables taking up precious seconds.

That's okay. Keep the ideas coming. We're throwing everything into the soup for now.
 
Here's a radio script I've come up with for a 30-second ad:

"There are 18 men and women running for President of the United States"

"Yet only one has never voted to raise his pay."

"Only one believes U.S. troops should guard America's border and not Iraq's"

"Only one belives in letting Iowa farmers grow hemp."

"Only one has been married to the same woman for more than 50 years."

"And only one has delivered 4,000 babies."

"On Aug. 11, please go to Ames and vote for the one, the only Congressman Ron Paul for President."

Paid for by Americans For Ron Paul Campaign Committee, not affiliated with the official Ron Paul for President campaign.

Hope you like it
