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

Maybe because it would cut out their main advertising space? These guys need to afford to keep the websites running.

So do other websites that support Paul and do it anyway. They are either serious or they are not. I am sure if they asked for donations to keep their sites up, they would get them.
 
Patriot Polls has added a widget. I would post the url, but its censored here for some reason.
 
Sentinelrv, please post your great update e-mail to daily paul too! There are lot of support for this! :)
 
i honestly hope that we get more active on daily paul too! There are lot of great supporters of this moneybomb there!
 
I've read through this entire thread tonight, so I know that a lot of work has gone into this. Thank you to all that are working so hard to make this happen.

Because I want Ron Paul to win so badly, I felt like I needed to give my 2 cents...

1) I'm not sure I understand the focus on drumming up "pledges". I get that you're trying to set a goal for $$$ raised during the money bomb, but I think setting huge goals for "pledges" can really backfire. Has there been any money bombs where the "pledge" goal was met? (I donated back in 2007 and again this year, but I have never pledged.)
2) Also, given that this is likely the last money bomb before Iowa, New Hampshire, etc., and given where Ron Paul is in the polls (within striking distance of first place, i.e. WINNING), it seems to me that we need to pull out all the stops with this one. I would suggest that we ask people to "Donate all you can". This was the language used in some of the videos leading up to the tea party money bomb in 2007. Some people will not be able to afford to give $100, but we want them to give all they can. Some people will be able to afford to give much more than $100 and we want them to give all they can.
3) I'm also struggling with the idea of some who have posted that think that this money bomb is going to be about converting people to Ron Paul supporters. I think it has to be about convincing everyone who does support Ron Paul or at least some of his positions that NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT! I remember in 2007 language was used in some of the videos like "don't miss out on the rEVOLution" and I remember after the 11/5 and 12/16 money bombs in 2007, people hearing about it and feeling like, wow I missed out if they didn't donate. I think we can tap into this and get people thinking that they do not want to miss out on the biggest political movement in at least a generation.
4) I really think we need some amazing videos on YouTube promoting this money bomb. Viral videos were what spread the word in 2007. (I wish I knew how to create/upload these videos, but I don't.) The videos really move people. They touch people emotionally and make them want to act. I can remember either being brought near to the point of tears or wanting to stand up and applaud after watching some of them. The message has to be about restoring our country and saving it for the next generation. People really do feel that this country has gotten way off track and Ron Paul is the only way to get it back on track.

Well, that's all I've got. Thanks again for everyone's hard work!
 
the chip-in for Lew Rockwell ad was succesfull under 24h!

It means that people are willing to donate for promoting this!

Now we really need think other places where we can advertise and set up new chip-ins! ASAP!
 
I am still hoping we could get a revision of the teaparty11.com website. Could you put "Ron Paul" "Moneybomb" in big text on top of the Tea Party picture. Use the Ron Paul official logo and the new "Moneybomb" logo found in the email?

nathanielyao, Patriot Polls still needs added to the coalition. The banner on their website should work. I can't link it as their website is censored here for some reason.
 
Ok, Gage is going to send an email to his 11/11/11 list about pledging to TeaParty11.com. Also, I talked to Dusman and he said he's looking into creating the pledge meter for the forum.

Could everyone change their messageforum signatures everywhere ?

And could everyone change their profile in all the social networks ?
 
Nathaniel, I sent you an email about the Lew Rockwell ad. Please read it. I need a properly designed ad that meets all the requirements so that I can pay for this thing now.

That's AWESOME! So much better than the way it is right now. Not only is it more compact, but it has a certain edgy feeling to it now, exactly what we've been missing. One thing though, if possible I'd still like to keep our goals at the bottom of the intro so everybody knows what we're shooting for.

Can't wait to see this put into action!
