Short Term AND Long Term: It's not one or the other!

I replied in another thread w/this but it may get buried so I started a new thread with it. I'd love to see some more ideas brewing on what we can all be doing locally to wake up people for the not to distant future WHILE we work on the long term with Campaign for Liberty.

I've been thinking a lot about this- trying to balance working longterm while dealing w/what's to come short term because I've been pretty stressed over the near future, too. We have to do this on two fronts imo. First, we work w/Campaign for Liberty. Spread it far and wide. I'm getting quite excited- thinking about news programs, liberty retreats, huge conferences (shall we meet once a year in secret?), so many options! I can't wait to see what the site rolls out!

Short term- it would have mattered very little if Dr. Paul were the Repub nominee. He would not have won. Just like the repubs went left to defeat Goldwater. If, by some miracle, RP were nominated he would have been silenced in some fashion or another. We're kidding ourselves if we think that he would be "allowed" to be POTUS if we're really up against what we think we're up against. I prefer Dr. Paul NOT silenced. As for things to come soon, that is our job. We have to massively reach out locally with our meetups already in place and start preparing people. Use your imagination. Get flyers out. Speak at local events about preparing for economic collapse. I think most of us have been doing this on a smaller scale among friends/family. Spread it out. Summer is here. Teach people how to can food. Offer camps on survival. Gun safety for teens. Whatever- just start thinking about it. The porcs in NH have an awesome phone system in place if I recall correctly. Maybe meetups could set up something similar- it's a warning line if someone needs *help*. Call in, all the "members" get your message and can come to your aid. We have the network in place to get this done on both fronts. We just have to DO IT.

Just my thoughts. They're a bit scattered right now but you get the jist of it.
