Just got this email from the RP campaign


"From the very beginning, my campaign for the White House has been about REAL change and true reform.

It’s been about changing the Republican Party – and more importantly, changing the direction of our country.

It’s been about renewing respect for the founding principles of limited constitutional government, free markets, and sound money.

XXXX, this has never been just a campaign. This is a R3VOLUTION – and so far, it’s been a very successful one.

And for that, I have wonderful supporters like you to thank.

But our job isn't over yet. We still have some important work to do.

To help me make as much of an impact in Tampa - and beyond - as possible, my grassroots supporters are holding a "Rise for Liberty" Money Bomb on May 17.

This is likely to be the last Money Bomb of my campaign, so I would truly appreciate your contribution.

Already, thanks to the efforts of good folks like you, my supporters and other liberty-minded folks are now in positions of power within the Republican Party in Alaska, Nevada, Iowa, and elsewhere.

Tens of thousands of liberty-minded young people are now active in politics and working feverishly for a better tomorrow for our country.

As much as some in power may not like it, these young people are not going anywhere.

And liberty candidates are filing to run for office all across the nation at seemingly every level of government.

Thanks to the hard work and dedication of folks like you, we are the future of the Republican Party.

But there are many State Conventions set to take place soon throughout the country.

What happens in each one could have MASSIVE ramifications for years to come.

For example, the Minnesota Republican Convention is this weekend.

Iowa, Louisiana, Missouri, and Washington will all soon follow.

Combined with what we’ve already accomplished, all of these conventions will help determine just how much of an impact you and I can make at the Republican National Convention in August.

They will determine our influence on the direction of the Republican Party, including the platform and the rules, which – as many of my supporters have learned – will be absolutely critical to the success of future pro-liberty candidates.

But for my efforts in the remaining State Conventions to be successful, I need you to continue standing with me.

By maximizing the number of delegates we take to the Republican National Convention, you and I can send a loud-and-clear message to the Republican Party and the national media that our R3VOLUTION is here to stay!

So I hope I can count on you to make your most generous contribution to the May 17 Rise for Liberty Money Bomb.

Your contribution will go directly toward winning as many delegates as possible at the remaining State Conventions.

XXXX, I truly believe you and I are the future. And I know we cannot be stopped!

Our work over the next few months will not only determine the level of our success in August, but it will be absolutely essential to ensuring we keep making history beyond Tampa.

So please plan now to make the most generous contribution you can possibly afford to the Rise for Liberty Money Bomb this Thursday!

Let’s finish what we started and continue our work to Restore America NOW!

For Liberty,

Ron Paul

P.S. Thanks to all of your hard work over the past year, there’s no denying you and I are now the future of the Republican Party.

But our job is not done.

To help me make as much of an impact in Tampa - and beyond - as possible, my grassroots supporters are holding a "Rise for Liberty" Money Bomb this Thursday, May 17.

I hope you will plan to make your most generous contribution to this effort!"

Good luck asking for money after that fiasco yesterday. What a stupid move. The people running his campaign (with goddamn Benton at the head) are evidently the most incompetent campaign staff on earth or are working against Dr. Paul.

Yea, I'm on the fence about donating. It would make sense to donate if Ron is still init to win it, but I'm not donating just so we can try to change the direction of the party at the national convention.
 
I'll be donating. I have to believe Ron wouldn't ask for money unless he was going to put it to good use.

There we have it ... Ron Paul 2012!!
 
If you're not going to donate then shut up and take your emotional bullshit elsewhere.

Good luck donating just to try to change an already hijacked republican party that can't be saved. The establishment could give jackshit what Ron have to say at the national convention as long as romney is the nominee.
 
The tone of this email is completely different. I think Jesse is in the dog house.
 
Well RP just had to spell it out to you. Some of us that have been in politics more than a few years or months knew all along what the hell he was doing. Now you can go have yourselves a good refreshing cry.
 
Why not? Ron wouldn't be asking if it was not needed. Let's show him that we haven't gone anywhere... cause really, where else is there to go?
 
Why the last money bomb? If he wins the nomination then we will still donate......... Obama vs Paul?? IM confused....

But when you're done crying come back, we won't hold it against you. You'll realize that your tears will not change anything and that real action will be required, then you're back in the fold for a new battle.
 
The day before the no more campaigning email I had the feeling that Ron Paul had reached the point where there is no stopping his message of sound money and a limited constitutional government; win or lose the election.

I kind of hate to see it put to the test like this.

Still I see many of the Ron Paul Hero's pushing on. I hope I can keep caught up in it.
 
I have so much respect for Ron Paul because he doesn't lie to us, or tell us things we just want to hear, but here's the exception --I wish he would tell us if we fight hard enough, we can win the nomination. I'm not saying that would be a lie, but I am saying it is what I'm sure most of us want to hear.
 
Yes, he sat down and penned it himself :rolleyes: Thanks for the snarky question though.

He did approve the message however.

Sorry, not meant to be "snarky", I was serious, as I said.
I'm not sure what Ron knows about what is going on. All I keep hearing from the campaign is "Iowa", wow, really, there's been alot more than that.
Now, OK is trying to figure out if they are going to have any support.
So, will the "campaign" support OK if they get more money? Or should we send it to OK?
