I was all set to move on Ron Paul Revolution II, but...
...but this thread really took the wind out of my sails. Well, for what it's worth, here is something I have been circulating, hoping to get something going...
==============================================
I’m working on a YouTube video to hopefully inspire a viral Sign Bomb on the day of Ron Paul’s announcement of his candidacy. But looking at the calendar, time is getting tight and the video is at least a couple of days away. Below is the script for the video which serves as a basic outline of a plan for a BIG KICKOFF to Ron Paul Revolution II. I think the best thing to do is put it out there right away and hope that people will agree with the vision and want to make it a reality.
Here in Los Angeles we are already planning a sign making meetup for next weekend. We have someone who can store the signs and have them ready to go. We already have a couple of favorite spots from Revolution I. We’ll shoot and YouTube our sign making meetup and hopefully inspire others to do so.
Please read the following and consider helping make it a reality.
================================================
Ron Paul is widely expected to announce his candidacy for President of the United States in mid February at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). In 2007, his run for the White House sparked an historic grassroots political movement that came to call itself “The Ron Paul Revolution”. Since that time, the landscape of American politics has been forever changed as a result. The Tea Party movement and the campaign to Audit and Repeal the Federal Reserve Bank as well as the historic change in Congress in the last election are all direct outgrowths of the Ron Paul Revolution. The core principles and issues that powered it are now deep in the public consciousness: constitutional power, big government, debt, taxation and personal liberty were once off limits to discussion and are now integral to the national discourse thanks to the personal action of countless Americans during the Ron Paul 2008 campaign.
History does not repeat itself but it does sometimes rhyme. In a few days we get a second chance at making history. Were you involved last time? Did you miss the chance to Be a Part of It? Our time has now come!
Let’s prepare NOW to give Ron Paul Revolution II a BIG KICKOFF.
Here’s the plan:
On the day that Ron Paul announces, let’s immediately show the country that he has the support to win. Let’s have a national sign and banner day that captures the attention of the citizens and the media.
In order to accomplish this, we must prepare now.
1. Hold local sign and banner making meetups as soon as possible. Build a big cache of visual ammo that can be passed out to the troops when the time is right. If you are not among a community of Ron Paul supporters, look online and find one or create one for your local community yourself. But even if you are a lone individual on a street corner that day, you will be part of a much larger, national event.
2. Prepare printed materials for distribution to passing pedestrians and motorists.
3. Develop an email and telephone list or online RSVP system of all those who want to show up for the sign bomb on the big day. Set up an email announcement or telephone tree or online calendar event to get the word out right away.
4. Designate a few key, high exposure locations as targets for Sign Bombing. Busy intersections are great for sign waving. Freeway overpasses are great for displaying big banners to oncoming traffic. Make sure that the predetermined locations are well known ahead of time.
5. At the end of the day, post your signs and banners in appropriate locations so that they will get exposure in the following days.
Imagine that you are an American on your way to work. You are listening the news on your car radio and you here a report about Texas Congressman Ron Paul’s announcement of his candidacy for President. Just then, you come to an intersection and there are 30 people holding “Ron Paul 2012” signs and chanting his name. One of them approaches your car and hands you a brochure. Who the heck is this guy? You need to know more and search the internet as soon as you get in to work.
6. Develop a telephone and email list of all local print, TV and radio media. Upon receiving the word, send a fax and email to the media telling them that large groups of people are at your preset locations waving Ron Paul signs.
7. At the Sign Bomb, take pictures and video. Send the pictures via email to the media on your mobile device. Call the media and tell them that a large group of people are at this location campaigning for Ron Paul.
8. When the event is over, if no media came out, bring copies of your pictures and video to the media and make yourself available for an interview in their studio.
Imagine that you are an American who has just returned home after a long day at work. You turn on the TV and the news reports that Ron Paul has announced his candidacy. They cut to a reporter standing at an intersection in a nearby city. He reports on the throng of Ron Paul supporters gathered behind him. Who the heck is this guy? You need to know more.
We are going for a nation wide, visible, immediate expression of support for Ron Paul that kicks his campaign off in a big way. We can do this, but in order to be successful we must get started right away. Make your signs. Set a spot. Get the word out. Rally the troops. Notify the media. Make it happen. Yes, we can.
Make it a celebration. Let it be a street party! Let’s put our gloves on, get in the ring and land a blow…
FOR LIBERTY!

I'll continue to spread the good word of Dr. Paul and talk about him as if he is running.
), this movement isn't lacking a presidential candidate.
