Guys and gals, if you want your ideas to be heard, you'll need to send them to the parents of this brainchild at the web site. Make sure you sign up. I attended the first conference call on this idea and am part of the planning committee now.
Mr. Austin, you PM'd me asking for details of the meeting and I thought I'd go ahead and answer you here so that other interested parties will know as well.
The conference call lasted a little over an hour. There were about 20 people on the call. Some of us got assigned tasks and will be conferencing again tomorrow morning @ 10:00 am pacific time. My job right now is to get permit information from D.C.
A date was discussed but not firmed up. It will depend on availability with regard to the permit. Most organizations march and rally in the summer time. So it might even be too late to do it then, but I should know by tomorrow. Any sooner won't be enough time to pull this off, especially given the response they've gotten over this. And, we don't want to have this rally too late in the summer. I know from experience that D.C. is sweltering hot during the summer months. I helped put on a march in the middle of last June there and the weather was perfect. Flag day, which is June 14th was given consideration as a first choice.
We also discussed a theme and came up with 'Restore the Constitution for Freedom, peace, and prosperity.' We talked about who to invite and how we wanted to keep this march very positive. Ron Paul is the guest speaker and he will never go for a hostile protest. We will most likely be inviting the 43 other congressmen who co-sponsored HCR40 which is a bill to stop the North American Union, NAFTA, and the NAFTA superhighway.
We talked about the positions that need to be filled for this event -
webmaster
artist
programmer
State Coordinators
Video production crew (for documentary of the event, etc.)
Public Relations
Attorneys for legal advice
Event organizer
National travel coordinator
March logistics officer
Accountant
Advisory Board
This is a very fluid situation and is developing and changing by the minute. Soon these positions will be added to the site for people to volunteer for. You will note that there are phases of planning on the site.
There is a lot involved in planning an event like this, we will be required to have a certain amount of porta potties, we'll need a stage and sound equipment, lighting. We have to coordinate with the park police on a march route and an ending location. We have to promote this and coordinate speakers and entertainers.
Keep your ideas coming, PM me any time, and please, spread the word, and sign up to help and to march.
Remember, like the Good Doctor says, this is not about one man, this is about a message. It is up to us to get this message out and to restore the republic. We have found each other and there are more of us freedom lovers than there are of the elitists who are running our lives and this nation into the ground. It's time we took our lives back. It's time we took our country back.
Let's do this.
