Ok, so many have chimed in that they "like" this idea. I "like" this idea too, for the record.
Great...so shouldn't the next question should be: "How can this be accomplished realistically?" I know businesses can establish auto-draft billing if they are offering a long-term service - i.e. "in-house" charge" or membership (such as what the YMCA offers). If Trevor 'n' friends could manage to bypass the system for his blimp chip-in by establishing a for-profit company, then perhaps something along similiar line could be used for this effort, right? I'm not very familiar with campaign finance laws, so my suggestions are limited. CAN the campaign offer a auto-draft option? Can PAC'S? Can a FOR-profit business? As long as the source is trustworthy enough, then this idea would be a fantastic opportunity for us to plan contributions to the campaign (you know...canvasing? calling? emailing? coverting new supporters?) that do not involve us spending the majority of our time organizing just the FUNDING-RAISING aspect of Ron Paul's campaign. As December 16th proved, the media just doesn't really care anymore (aside from the whimsical blurb) about how much money Ron Paul has. That's good news for us anyway; now we can start cracking down on getting the vote out while the hassle free auto-draft system sustains Ron Paul's momentum. To be sure, it's funny as hell to watch the "Money Bombs" make the MSM and other candidates squirm in their seats, but we REALLY need to be focusing our heavy influence in other directions (PRIMARIES, PRIMARIES, PRIMARIES!)
So...*ahem*...does anyone have any bright ideas about making this possible?
