I disagree completely. I welcome anyone who brings a new, creative voice to my attention.

Thank you, everyone who is building their own, special home for liberty.

Don't let anyone pressure you!

This kind of feel-good, "I'm special" egotistical garbage is unnecessary and counterproductive.

Let's have another money bomb tomorrow. I'm sure we have enough time to get the word out. jk

I agree that we need to focus on the 16th. We've got the opportunity to make it huge - that's IF we market it right. We need to spread the news word-of-mouth.

Your view is more in line with Dr. Paul's message.
Thank you

ONE DAY, ONE EVENT, ONE WEBSITE AND ONE CHANCE TO MAKE HISTORY.

If some people want to distract from the message and go and do their own "creative" thing that's fine. Just don't climb back on board with Trevor and his team when everyone raises the 10m on Dec 16th and your team took 20k from that on the 10th of December or whatever the heck other date it would be....
And oh yeah, while I'm at it...
F*** YOU FRANK....Yeah and you GEORGE IMUPMYOWNASSOPOLOS

Tea party 07 isn't good enough to discourage

other sites. Don't we have enough followers in our society? All good ideas are welcome and they can point to Mr. Pauls main site.

 

[kylejack]

I have to agree. Other sites are fine to promote, but link them to teaparty07.com. We want just one counter, so take counters off other sites.

 

[MozoVote]

I think what is important here is the message of UNITY. I feel like Dec 16th is going to be like that moment in "Horton hears a Who" where all the whos shouted in unison. We have time to promote the tea party, and get Americans of all stripes that want reform to yell with us!

 

[FluxCapacitor]

It seems that the best way to do this is to have as many websites as happen to crop up naturally. Grassroots! Each website can explain the TeaParty07 event in its own way, but they all link to TeaParty07 and that's where the hit counter and pledge counter is. Some people will need to see a high count on the pledge counter to be inspired to take part.

If this is the best and most efficient model, then the TeaParty07 site should be very focused on gathering the momentum and making it visible. This means it should not get distracted trying to tie in with the history of the Boston Tea Party. It shouldn't talk about inflation or income tax. It should have a general message and stay focused on building momentum.

 

[McDermit]

i'm 100% behind the teaparty site. This is a solid idea.

 

[SwordOfShannarah]

Kimochi and Indy Vidual- sorry to say this but you're brand new and you seem to be posting a recurring theme that is counter productive... and in more than one place. Hmmmm.

At any rate- don't feed threads like these. Let them try to start their own sites. It didn't work last time and it won't work this time. It's a waste of energy to worry about it.

why limit the message to just one market?

Why not a Tea party site for the anti-war...

A Tea party site for illegal immigration

A Tea party site for gun owners...

Everybody has their hot button...lets get ALL of them...

this is an RP fundraiser...not a teaparty.com fundraiser

Geez... Go and start your OWN WEB SITE, if you think it's that important. I wish people would quit spamming these forums with their ENDLESS attacks upon Trevor and teaparty07.com. Quit talking about it and take action - go design your own site and we'll see if anyone comes to it. God knows I won't.

November 5th, November 11th, and the Tea Party all can credit their origins to the original Money Bomb, which was designed to be a weekly event involving a high number of contributors each donating a small amount of money:

To find 40,000 solid volunteers to step up to the plate and donate $25 once per week, every week, to Dr. Ron Paul's Presidential Campaign fund. 'Bombs Away' times and date will be provided to your email and posted on this website. Congressman Paul will be given a million dollar boost every single week. We are growing rapidly.

I have trouble instructing people not to contribute to other money bombs that work within that framework. I support the idea of generating $1 million within an hour once each week with smaller $25 contributions AND I support the idea of generating $10 million or more on November 16th with larger $100 contributions. I think both goals would be achievable if their were support for both.

 

[Naraku]

Like I was proposing earlier, just picking one day when those guys are doing their money bomb and seriously backing it as a server test for December 16th would be a perfect idea. I'm not on any ego trip, I'd rather the people behind both efforts get credit over me.

I just think it's the best way to keep everyone happy.

Guys,
I really don't think we should panic about new websites and new money bomb ideas. We saw the Nov 11th competing with Nov 5th early on and the people drifted into support for Nov5th because it seemed to resonate better with them. Once it caught on it became viral. Good ideas, when accepted, will thrive in this medium, becoming way to strong to be seriously affected by new smaller ideas.

We still should be proud of the Nov11th guys for the work they did, but in the end the market found an option they prefered.

The idea of shutting down ideas is very much based on the top-down (centralized) style of management which is the exact opposite of what makes this grass roots movement so successful.

imho, for every 10 ideas promoted that don't take off an idea appears that much more than compensates for any of the damage that the earlier 10 might have caused. For that reason I encourage anyone who is willing to have a go at promoting an idea, but warn them not to be too discouraged if their idea gets criticised or goes down like a lead balloon. What you learn may lead to something very successful not to far away and many of us are thankful for your efforts to help the good doctor.

 

[Brian Bailey]

Many of you seem to have little or no faith in this movement and its people.

You seem to think that Ron Paul supporters are sheep in the same way that many on these forums refer to the general populace as sheep.

This is an insult to both us and to everyone else.

Wake up. Grow up.

The message of freedom does not need you, sitting on your computer, to hold its hand and guide its way. Individual liberty and equality for all are not to be arrived at by requiring millions of people to prescribe to your strange decrees of uniformity.

No one here, I repeat no one, is saying that the Tea Party is a bad idea. In fact, it is a great idea; but it is by no means the only idea.

If you think that one glorious day is all it takes to elect somebody President of the United States then you need to do some serious re-thinking of your worldview.

This movement can only be derailed by the simple narrow-mindedness that some of you have started to espouse.

 

[Naraku]

Yes I think the problem is that adhering to this idea and telling everyone to not donate until then, but save up, is only going to hurt things.

Even when the Tea Party happens and becomes a massive success, the biggest advantage will be the press coverage, while the money will be much less useful.

It would be useful for Feb 5th, but not the early primaries and Paul HAS to win them to take things away. There needs to be some money in between now and December 16th and using that to the advantage of the Tea Party is a good idea, I think.
