Should Ron Paul Personally Campaign in Hawaii?

[VinnyG]

RP is now in Missouri (votes next Saturday). Makes sense because earlier today he was next door in Kansas for today's caucus.

No other events are shown on the official website.

How cool would it be, what a great surprise, to wake up tomorrow morning to find that he flew overnight to be in Hawaii starting Sunday, that John Tate and his brother Ronnie were there only to be setting up things in advance?? Stealing a march on the other campaigns. I can dream. At the very minimum he deserves a little time in a place with nicer weather. It's not like there's anything meaningful to be gained in AL or MS.

Then after the Tuesday HI caucus he could come back to MO for a second round of campaigning there, kind of like what he did in ID and WA.

No...Tate and Ronnie should not just be there o set up. Ron Paul should have every single person at his disposal in Hawaii doing everything they can to reach every single person. Ron Paul is in an "all in" situation here. He has nothing to hold back for. There is no need not to spend every last penny he has trying to win Hawaii since the states coming up in the next couple weeks are pretty much losers anyway. And if he has a strong showing in Hawaii, it would make up for it with a bump in donations

Listen, I didn't read the article just posted so i don't know if this was brought up. But there is a very large community of nissei, many of them uchinanchu (Okinawan ancestry) in Hawai'i. They will be very receptive to Ron's foreign policy of getting the military bases off their home island. Also, isn't Schoolander (sp?), the guy who produced "The Philosophy of Liberty" videos, in Hawai'i?
Maybe Ron should spend a couple of hours at the Brigham Young campus...lol. Or make sure the students know about the town halls and meet & greets.
Also, given the elevated place of women in the culture, Carol should give some interviews.
Then, like someone was saying, they could hit American Samoa. I think if they heard Ron's message, they'd back off Santorum and vote for "the real thing".

Yes, and at Pearl Harbor!! He's the only vet running, seams like a great place!! Plus, Ron and Carrol need a vay-cay!!

Just emailed Doug W. I'll try to get on the uchinanchu website and talk up Ron Paul this evening.

FYI for large anti-war population in islands

Our meetup group has been doing sign waves pretty much every week for the last 9 or 10 months...we will see how it goes.

I am utterly baffled as to why this didn't happen. I'm also baffled at the people who voted "no" in the poll.

"Any decision the campaign makes is correct, therefore I will vote no". LOOK at the situation we're in.

Nothing but primaries on the horizon, all of which ron has ZERO chance of winning. They only two REMOTE chances at victory are Hawaii and Montana - and our chances in Montana are very remote still.

I would like an explanation from everyone who voted "No" here.. because there is no excuse.

My guess is no because it will take too much time, and, the jet probably isn't rated for transocieanic travel.

Have Ron speak at Pearl Harbor.
