The "Billionaire" = RP's Publisher

That book bomb site just like the blimp is happy to EARN money off of the efforts of supporters.

Its pitiful in my opinion BUT guess what everyone loves money and will do most anything to get it.

The blimp crew all earned 2 grand a month including the web admin who just sits here like us, that should be done by VOLUNTEERS right???? We all have jobs and things to do as well but we VOLUNTEER for the greater good.

If anything ALL the affiliate money that b.s. book bomb site earns should go 100% to fund ron pauls campaign.

So the question is WHOS SITE IS IT and I would love to hear what they will use the affiliate funds for?

Same with the yahoos in the ron paul friday site who is happily affiliated with a t-shirt selling site and getting commissions off of it as well.

VOLUNTEERING is different from PROFITEERING people

So what exactly does it mean when it says "audio book"? The link at the Daily Paul takes you to Amazon.com where you can prepurchase an audio book. Is this a book and a CD? Or is it an entire book on audio only? sounds strange.

Just means you can listen to it audibly. Like while you are driving or at home. Just plug it in to your tape or cd player and someone will read it for you. This is good for me, because I am in the car a lot.
 
How very true. The only thing that I have asked when volunteering is a place to stay. Everything is on me. Don't mind helping out people with chip-ins though.

Ok, that makes more sense. Seems like this will be a hell of a book and I'm glad to see Dr. Paul getting a bigger publisher than the Mises Institute.

Yep, they mean business by getting it published and supported by a company that can give the book a "real" shot at promoting it. I think this can be bigger than we think! :)

I do not believe that there is a hard copy of the book -- it is just on tape or CD. Many books have been put on this format.

When you get popular, and you write a book, big publishers take notice. It is all about making money. If they know they can make a ton of money from Ron Paul because of his growing popularity, they will be sure to jump on board.

QFT.

Publishing is a business. There's no mysterious billionaire involved here. Such a hypothesis is just plain silly.
 
So what if a supporter generates some income from a pro-RP site. After all we are capitalists here not commies.
 
Interesting that it's a French firm... Historically, that is.

The French were instrumental supporters of the LAST American Revolution. :)

yes, i got confused, too. the link at the dailypaul.com site takes you straight to the audio cd page at Amazon. if you do a book search the hard copy version of the book turns up. it's now the #3 bestseller at Amazon.
 
I hope RP makes a ton of cash!

Ron Paul deserves every penny he makes off this book. He has foregone over a year and counting now of his life to spread this message. The guy is 73 and most that age would be playing with grandkids and watching the Price is Right. He is a true hero. I have never said that about anyone in the public eye during my lifetime. (I'm 28).

I wouldn't even buy the book used on-line. Got my brand new copy pre-ordered!
 
One thing I've been wondering is what happened to that other new Ron Paul book, Pillars of Prosperity. Is that now this book?

2 Grand a month is nothing, man. That's an annual income of $24,000, barely above the poverty line with today's rising costs.
 
Grand Central Publishing is the new name of Warner Vision Publishing. They are HUGE! I was actually really surprised when I saw who the publisher was. Primarily they publish thriller books, such as James Patterson and even published Stephen Colbert's book. Most people buy books just on the name of Grand Central/Warner Vision.
 
who cares if the organizer of the book bomb site makes money? It comes straight out of amazon's pocket, not mine. So more power to them. Did you realize that part of the money you give to the campaign pays for **GASP** operating costs?

Not sure if you are implying that I believe in a mysterious billionaire, which I don't. However, I think you were stating my point saying that publishers want to make money because it is a business. Like I said. RP is and has gotten popular. If a publisher can make money from his book, they are going to publish it because they know they can make money. My statement has nothing to do with a mysterious backing of a billionaire. Only stating basic business sense.

They were getting expenses paid too - so - that was $500 clear each week,

with one person claiming to be a "volunteer", but we found out later they got paid too.

Now that same person has come here asking people to just give them $5000 to start their own company.


Plus, at first they wanted $1000 a week - they only went to $500 after people complained.

Still, out of the about $400,000 donated - $25,000 was paid out to who knows who exactly -

we asked for oversight like they promised on the website - but they balked at fulfilling the promise - so we don't know who got what
