Check my past posts -- I have been one of the main Ron Paul supporters in opposition to the direction the Blimp project was headed. The opposition went out of our way to make sure our concerns were raised on this forum and we have taken quite a bit of attacks for doing so.
I have stepped back over the last few days and read the posts and monitored the changes to the http://www.ronpaulblimp.com/ web-site. I have to give a lot of credit to the Blimp Team. They listened to our concerns and they responded. They easily met us more than half way. Is the final plan perfect. No. However it is close enough and given their willingness to listen in the past, I am sure we can all work together to make it better as time moves along.
We need this blimp to fly... and the only shot we have is the plan on the table today. No alternative has a chance to work at this time.
The Blimp is worth 10X the cost... easily, every $1 spent will get us back $10 in return through free media attention and positive name recognition for Dr. Paul.
$200K by Friday is easily doable. I have watched the grassroots effort do this time and time again.
It is time to stop bickering, bitching and whining and show our adversaries that we can make anything happen. To show the naysayers that no matter how far apart we can be, we can still pull together and get it done.
With the way the project is set-up, there is no financial limit, and all we need is to show one Ron Paul supporter with the financial capability to back this project, that the grassroots wants this to happen.
Even if it is just $10 bucks... lets get the blimp charts moving up and show our support!
