The Grassroots Ron Paul Blimp Thread *T-minus 32 hours*

Keep this bumped! The blimp must fly.

A message on the blimp:

In 36 hours we will have to have gathered an additional $80,000. In 36 hours from the time of this writing, if we haven't... we will be utterly castraited by the media.

At the same time we are 72 hours from unfathomable success if we are able to get the money together. Who gets paid what, Pac vs. LLC, etc. are completely meaningless here.

If we do not raise enough for the blimp, on the 16th we will hear nothing but, "Well they may have raised $10 million, but look at their blimp project. The Ron Paul supporters are incapable of doing anything but donating money." At this point the Tea Party will be almost meaningless without a successful Blimp launch.

Pull together troops... it's time to put up, or shut up.

Donate now! (Donations as small as $10!)

If you honestly are completely opposed to the blimp project, there are plenty of other Ron Paul projects to take part in, both online and offline. Please spend your energy there instead of arguing here.

If you are at all on the fence, please help us out by donating whatever you can to the blimp project.

Let's not turn this into a debate thread.

This is just a reminder for those who would like to donate.

If you would like to debate, please go to the blimp forum. Thanks.

By the way, Ron Paul mentioned the blimp last night. Read here: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=48102

wait a minute now i know why you arent collectiing money . i use pay pal,i dont not use google nor am i going to use google ,i do not want to sign up to google to make a payment this might answer a lack of donating ,since if i cant just use my credit card or pay pal then there is no way for me to contribute


YOU GUYS ARE KILLING yourself by not using paypal ,until you have a paypal account i cant use my credit card or paypal,i will not sign up to google

 

[JordanL]

Unless you want "suggestions" to the opposite, please remove your request.

Fine. I really don't care. I'm just trying to get something done. Are you?

I am doubling down my blimp pledge today... help if you can

Cashing my check today and will send in the same amount I already sent in a few days ago to fullfil my pledge. I know alot of Ron Paul haters pledged originally to try to shoot down the blimp (along with a few Ron Paul 'supporters'), but the rest of us should be able to overcome.

Yes. Right now, I'm trying to keep anyone ELSE from further sabotaging the Tea Party fundraiser.

Let the free market work. Have faith.

 

[orion846]

paypal and normal credit card accepting would definately help

 

[JordanL]

Yes. Right now, I'm trying to keep anyone ELSE from further sabotaging the Tea Party fundraiser.

Fair enough.

If Ron Paul had a nickle for every time someone on this forum accused another person of sabbatoge he'd be to $12 million already.

We're not a very trusting bunch.

PayPal would freeze the account... we wouldn't get the money in time.

And they're working on direct credit card transactions.

I was not planning on donating to the blimp (already donated to the campaign multiple times, plan on it again on 12/16, and have donated to the tv ads for Iowa), but now I have made a donation to the blimp as well.

The blimp needs to take off; all the media has been hyped up to expect it. Not flying now would be a disaster for us.
