Stop the madness! Focus on www.teaparty07.com ONLY!

[Derek Johnson]

If we (about 30,000+) all get 10 people to commit to 12-16 our day will be a huge success. www.teaparty07.com - get them (your name list) to sign your pledge sheet and sign up at the website. Follow up with your name list a few times to answer any questions about our platform.

This requires many signs, door to door, leaving a trail of slim jims, phone calls, bumper stickers, RP t-shirts, meetup group activities etc.

So let's each get to to commit to 12-16, this will take work, but it needs to be done. Get 100 if you can, but we can each get 10 people in 1 month to save our constitution, can't we?

So what's more important then slim jims

with 10 different points that leads to his main site to contribute or

a tea party that leads to a narrow focus? ( from the first screen/impression)

Ahhh yes... the "cat herding" aspect of dealing with free-thinking liberty-lovers. I know it well

Personally, I am 110% on board with the Tea Party, for the simple reason that the YouTube video was f--ing awesome. That, and there's enough time to both save up money and alert people.

For those who are upset that anyone would issue "marching orders" ... note that nobody is actually going to send unconstitutional goons to shut down your other, competing websites.
That doesn't mean we can't tell you honestly that we think it's a bad idea to dilute the 16th bomb.

My $0.02, given here as always for free

I agree with you that we should focus primarily on teaparty07.com but other sites are welcomed to, as long as they link to teaparty07.com

 

[ItsTime]

I disagree 100% ALL FOCUS should be on driving traffic to RONPAUL2008.COM/DONATE on the 16th period. I could care less how people find out about the 16th as long as they hear about it and donate. It is very egotistical to think you need one site to do the job.

 

[Benaiah]

Just let people do what they want. In the marketplace of ideas the best one will win.

Exactly. I mean how much of November 5th can we attribute to Youtube postings, Meeting postings, etc...? A freaking lot. This is the internet people, you want websites, lots of them, linked to other websites, and others, and so on...

It's about getting the word out, not about some ticker going up through centralization. All the matters is the donation gets made on the 16th.

 

[rebelforacause]

It really is like Michael from "The office" making the decisions

WHY NOT LET THE OFFICIAL CAMPAIGN MAKE THE DECISION

BTW
correct me if I am wrong but it's the collective people backing this thing that deserve credit

 

[Edward]

WHY NOT LET THE OFFICIAL CAMPAIGN MAKE THE DECISION

Then it wouldn't be grassroots support.

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.

.

even if just one person goes to a "competing" website and drops $100....isnt that $100 more than the narow focus existing effort would have gotten????

whats with this centralization bullshit....the money all ends up in RP's coffers just the same

Well I don't really think this is an effective way of getting people to donate...just telling them "go donate on the 16th" vs showing them that it's a huge event and if everyone does it it'll have a huge impact (teaparty07.com)

I agree with this telling more people about it is great and getting more links to it

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.

Trevor, don't let your successes make you arrogant or you'll just be another victim of your own success.

 

[jmhelms]

After reading all of the comments I realize that a couple of you are smarter than me, everyone else, not so much...I didn't mean that.
Regardless, Teaparty07.com is going to happen. You are either with us in this effort or you are not. We are all working towards the same goal at the end of the day and I wish you all the best success no matter how you choose to spend your time. What I don't want to see happen is internal erosion of the group because we don't agree with one another. Teaparty 07 is going to be a great day for the Ron Paul campaign. Join us in this fight or at least rejoice with us when the task at hand has been accomplished! If you choose not to, don't stand in our way. We are focused on a goal, don't hold us back.

People, for the love of God....STOP proposing new money bombs, STOP promoting alternate websites, and STOP using Dec. 16th to gratify your own egos.

ONE money bomb, ONE day, ONE website.

www.teaparty07.com

Focus on one day makes sense.

To balance traffic, perhaps Ron Paul's official campaign site could be used too in addition to this site and would count towards the same?
