Ron Paul Overnight, v2.0

[berkeleybound]

The next Republican debate is on August 5th, 2007. Therefore, get started making and staging your "Ron Paul for President 2008" signs in the early evening of August 4th 2007. Then in the wee hours of August 5th hit the streets in your city or town plastering the signs everywhere you can!

Edit: Better yet, start putting some signs out now. Don't wait for August!

Overpasses, street corners, along highways, in store fronts, in front of media outlets newspapers, television networks, anywhere and everywhere!

Why wait until the wee hours of the 4th?

Start making your stuff now, and you'll have 3-4 times as much come August...

I totally agree - but as for the overnights on every 4th of the month from here out.. it's just a way to take unified action. It's very effective to see 10+ different signs for Ron Paul in one day.

The Belly of the Beast Ron Paul Meetup agreed to participate last night.

In addition, make sure we hit sign locations so that local media have to see them on their way to work. It wouldn't hurt for the local groups to send a media advisory with a contact person to encourage media coverage (make their job as easy as possible, spoon-feed them the story, it's a great lead-in for the announcement of the debate that night when they don't have anything else to report; and they love stories that tie-in their locality with national news!)
