Times Square Project - Dec 16th - URGENT!

[celticsman7]

Also, if a New Year's Eve ad costs $270,000 and this only costs $50,000, then why not just do both days for a combined $320k? To me it looks like a good deal. We were thinking that it would go into the millions but it clearly isn't.

 

[tonyTheBest]

lets do this, its a good idea

What we want is a good exposure, and this one just does it.

 

[slantedview]

ok, I think that most people want this project done will start raising money tonight unless something something comes up

yes. can we use an existing PAC to channel the funds through?

here is what it could look like http://www.ronpaultime.com/

Vadim - do you have all the FEC crap figured out? Don't you need a PAC?

we can if this one proves to be a success

BTW-If it falls through, I'd want my money resent to a) the blimp, b) operation live free or die, c) operationnh.com, in that order.

nah, its like paying for an ad in a magazine, all the supporters will be considrerd customers of buying display ad time through ronpaultime.com, the contributors cannot write off- it is just like blimp- contributors are buying advertising-

Let's make it happen.

I'm all in... if you haven't been to Time Square on a sunday afternoon, then you really have no idea how packed that place is with tourists/people

The MSM should/will pick this up.. especially since it will show in real time just how serious we are about winning this thing

 

[vadimg]

we need NYC meet up (1,000 members) to be there and also support this effort

 

[overcoming hope]

this is worthy

Sunday is a slow news day, better chance that local media will cover. This will draw attention to the Tea Party. Thousands of people from around the country pass through times square (even if it is a Sunday and the weather is bad) I'm in for 20 bucks if you go forward. ignore the nay sayers. If you don't like the idea then please move on and don't donate to it.

I am not from New York and have never been to Times Square. Is there a lot of people there on a Sunday? I live by Minneapolis and downtown is never a popular place on weekends. What if the weather is bad?

There are TONS of people there on the weekend!!! This will definitely get a lot of exposure. Place is like a zoo!!! And I am not kidding!

This page needs a spellchecker like a mother. Otherwise, great idea.

 

[Exarel]

This would be awesome! Instead of casting doubt on this given the very short notice, I will pledge $100 if there is enough support.

That's $100 X 500 people.

Can anyone else help with this?

Same. If we have enough pledges for this, i'll donate it.

 

[Charles Wilson]

I think this is a great idea but it should be timed for the last day of this quarter. We could have a final money bomb for that day. The huge amount of money raised by the grassroots during the fourth quarter should generate a media bump that will be worth millions in free advertizement for Ron Paul. The financial benefit should far exceed the costs even without the MSM. It will show the world that Ron Paul and his Revolution is for real. Also it will show the MSM that we can communicate the Ron Paul message to the public without their help if necessary. In other words, if the MSM wants to continue to ostracize Ron Paul then they can kiss our ass. All politics are local -- we can reach the local folks.

I will be happy to pledge 200 dollars, however it will have to be after the 16th because all of my money now is pledged for the Tea Party and the blimp. I get my next check on the 17th.

I think that this is a good idea. On new years eve with all of that going on no one really cares about the news. i don't know. i think that this cheaper way is much more worth our money!

im in.

 

[PlaytoWin]

I'm in for $100. Where do you donate?
