TeaParty11.com - Dec 16th Money Bomb - Ron Paul Tea Party

this is going to FAIL big time if we ALL don´t start work for this... :(

usually i´m optimistic but this time i really can´t be. Hope the BTO e-mail list helps us.

i will start promoting the supervoterbomb aswell, it will atleast be succesfull.

I feel like the super voter bomb is going to be more important than this. Each will be important, but if we can send out 100k letters to each state, we can sway votes and assure a lot of votes

Agree and sad but true, the organising of this effort is failing big time.

Hope i´m wrong, thought.
 
I think the Teaparty11.com website is much better this new way; great job. Especially the transparant picture on top of the scroll is great! Also happy to see the facebook.com on the site!

One text suggestion though on 'Who really started the Tea Party?':
"Who really started the modern Tea Party movement in America? There are many who will claim that the Tea Party was established in 2009; however, the Ron Paul grassroots started this nationwide brushfire leading up to December 16th, 2007 when we raised $6 million dollars in a single day for Ron Paul..."

This text is a bit too much "claiming". I would put it more neutral and by that more acceptable to a broad audience. Something like this perhaps:
"Who really started the modern Tea Party movement in America? There are many who will claim that the Tea Party was established in 2009; however Ron Paul is widely known as the intellectual godfather of the Tea Party. And it were his supporters who organized rallies on December 16th, 2007 (similar to the following 2009 Tea Party rallies) and a nationwide fundraiser in which they raised $6 million dollars in a single day for Ron Paul..."

I'm still a bit in doubt whether it should be "we" or "they"... what's the smartest? If you would write "they" it's perhaps more open for invitation to newcomers.
 
I really like the revised site, but still I had to scroll to see Ron Paul's name. 326 pledges? We really need to kick this in the ass! Now that the site is done will the BTO list be blasted?

One suggestion for this text:
"The Tea Party represents a shift in America's mindset toward fiscal responsibility. We are opposed to any candidate who supported TARP or the bailouts that have plagued America's economy. We stand against the Federal Reserve and the trillions of dollars they have loaned to foreign banks, causing massive inflation across the globe."

I think we should add that we want to "Balance the budget". I read about some really pissed off people on TeaPartyNation because of Republicans are again willing to compromise in the supercommittee
 
We need to step up the promoting guys. I'm all over YouTube right now spreading the word. Message YouTube Channels and do whatever to get these pledges.
 
Just noticed the website was updated. I believe though that the pledge field and text should be moved above the video so that it's the first thing you see when you visit the website.
 
How soon are we going to start the pledge competition? The one we did for Black This Out started late and was still a huge success. We already have the code to set this up now. If we get it setup early, we should be able to bring in a massive amount of pledges.

Everyone should be heavily promoting this right now. There is no excuse to wait.

I agree, but as we saw with Black This Out, providing an incentive and a way to guage promotion progress (Leader Board & Personal Pledge Count) motivates people even more to promote.
