First off I was with Joe, Iowa Coordinator all day yesterday renting the hall. The hall RP has "B", the PC Forum is in "C". It is literally 20 feet away. It is 20,000 sq ft and should hold 1,000 (seats) or so plus the Convention center can remove the wall between b and c after the Forum ends at 5 and expand the hall even more. (If there is a map of the Convention center we have the first third of hall b.)

I'm trying to get a road closure permit for outside the center for a rally.

Remember this is a work in progress so what I say can change in a flash.

The People at the Convention Center were excited about the idea after they learned what happened in KC.

What should we talk about?

Thanks for the great information, John! Happy faces 'n' smilez!

Sorry dude but I was given permission to post that last night. And like I said I DID NOT expect HQ to take so long posting a news release.

Now what did you think of the plan? That's what we should be talking about.
 
So why are we supposed to come to Iowa, again?
The BIG party that we're not invited to.
The FREE FOOD we're not supposed to eat.


Try this:
When, (if), the campaign comes South, then come down here and be treated with hospitality.

Go Ron Paul
 
potential

when I first got the news of Ron Paul's rally, I thought it was a little anti-climactic.

I said in an earlier post that I didn't think that this was a 15.

But I'll tell ya what. If things work out right, this has the potential to become a 16.

(if everyone behaves themselves;) )
 
Cool

Sounds great and love that the Iowans get first chance and it should be that way. They need to hear this great man and what a true non tax person he is. Great job and I think it is huge.

The out of staters will be welcomed Iam sure.

Oh yeah the tiny nasty things I said were just in jest.:D

Noodles, the campaign has limited finances to devote to this effort. You want more food for the masses? Donate food for the masses. Problem solved.

To help Dr. Paul win of course.

It's a long drive for many, and too far for most. We certainly understand that.

But a big showing is important to pull this off. Please stay positive.
 
Can you read???

I SAID COME TO MS AND BE TREATED WITH HOSPITALITY. That includes food.

John from Des Moines,

Thank you for your sincere apology! Did they give you permission to call it a 15 on a scale from 1 to 10? I bet they did because it's not a 15, it's a 25!

I think the idea is great, John! It certainly will not come off as a bunch of know-it-all out of staters crashing into an Iowa event, and Ed Failor, Jr. will not point this out at every opportunity. That will not happen and I trust anything that comes out of JfDM's keyboard.

15!:D A L L S M I L E Z, D A W G !
 
Campaign pays for Food

At $10 a plate the Campaign can not afford to feed everybody who shows up. The Concession stands can sell food to others. But, the Campaign wants to feed the hungry Forum goers as a HOOK. Get it?
 
I'll show up hungry, (I'm always hungry) but I'll gladly give away as many plates of food to potential converts as it takes. :)

JfDM says it will be $10 per plate, but it will really be $15 per plate! Or maybe $15,000!

The key to organizations is to get rid of a few, certain destructive people who are self-centered, unreliable, and have little empathy for others.

Some here will interpret that to mean Zydeco should get kicked off this forum.
 
Makes sense to me, John. I understand that we, as supporters of Dr. Paul, are not the ones that need to be introduced to RP and converted. That fact is apparently lost on a select few.

I'll be there, from Florida.

I assume it's not just forum goers but other people not already an activist. The press released has been released. The first 500 was what they announced.

What we are asking for is you supporters to come because you support Dr. Paul, and not to because free food is there. Let that go to other people.

Dr. Paul and the media will be there. That's enough for me.
 
lol

I may be hungry myself but will pin a twenty dollar bill to my shirt and find a meal somewhere. In fact I will try to feed another out of towner if I can make it.
