Watch For the TROLLS trying to make the March sound Bad

[RucdelaSpook]

I love the idea of a march!

Someone needs to be a troll to think the march is a bad idea?

Frankly, I know that a lot of us NEED to march. That has been proven time and again. The only question is the effectiveness of the march.

No, the media does not have to cover it. There could be 5 million people there and the media most likely won't cover it. Maybe a "web exclusive." That's about it. Then what have you accomplished? The answer is that you'll feel good about yourselves. This means nothing. It gets no results. And for most, it will mean the end of their involvement with the freedom movement, not the beginning.

I wish a march would accomplish something. But the odds of anything like a success are dismal.

Well, aksmith, I think that 'feeling good about ourselves' is a pretty good answer!!! A lot of us have been feeling kind of low, and demoralized what with the media blackouts and election fraud, and I think that a march is just the shot in the arm we need to keep on trucking!

If we have a march, (and from what I've heard from those who have already commited no matter what the date, in my own CITY-- it will be HUGE), it will have a long-lasting effect on the significance and relevance of our R3volution. We NEED to see the faces of the everyday American people that have been supporting Dr. Paul across the country. It'll be good to see that everyone who likes Ron Paul isn't just young, white, a Truther (not that there's anything wrong with that), or hard-core social conservative (or with that). Dr. Paul has attracted support from all across the field (e.g. I'm a gay, hispanic, 21-year old ex-Democrat-4-life) and I think that this march is the BEST idea that this campaign has come up with. I have been longing for an opportunity to see Dr. Paul in person, and I just love the idea of joining a large group of people fighting for something I have so much passion for: the U.S. Constitution.

I honestly don't understand why some of the people on this forum are so negative while at the same time adding that they're just being "realistic." The words on my Ron Paul sign say, "Ron Paul- Hope for America". Where's the 'Hope for Ron Paul Forums'???

Well, reality has a way of smacking one on the side of the head. Look at how much $$$ isn't coming in, its flat-lined! Granted, it's right before a Money bomb day. People wanted something to show for their hard earned efforts, time and money and got very little in return as the RPHQ Super Tues strategy failed. I can't blame them for walking away or most likely, all are on hold, waiting for another possibility/hope.

Prediction: the Presidential Moneybomb will be a Moneydud! That's reality, guaranteed!

And, the DC march will most likely be a dud too.

Personally, RP is taking a huge risk with this march idea. He's way out on a limb here and he is risking the future of his nascent Ron Paulitical movement. A low turn-out march will mortally wound the RP movement by visually showing your enemies how much support you don't have.

Trust me, if its small the MSM will gleefully report it 24/7. If its large, we'll be basically ignored (again). Worse, if the march is small, it'll probably destroy any chances for a 3rd party run and completely demoralize the remaining supporters. Ron Paul is betting the farm here. The RP movement is the very last hope America has left to reverse course from the abyss of totalitarianism? What is the payoff we get for such a risk!?

Better to take the money spent going to a march in DC and pledge it for a Ron Paul 3rd Party run. Maybe then, if the haul is huge we can entice the good doctor to change his mind.

And you will always be scared.
If you don't live on the edge, you cannot see the view.
I wish the poopy panties people would bitch and moan over at the Libertarian Third Party Watch Place, rather than here.
The March is going to happen.
period. Your pissing and moaning isn't going to stop it.
Once again,
RON PAUL HAS SAID HE IS NOT GOING TO RUN ON A THIRD PARTY TICKET.
THUS THERE IS NO THIRD PARTY TICKET TO "DESTROY" WITH A SILLY OL' MARCH ON WASHINGTON.

ETA- I'm sure others are seeing through this like a winda (with a gun rack)

Well ... I consider the poster you replied to nailed to the wall.. Some people must have miserable lives to be such condescending asses for no good reason except the MSM twinked their winkie.. Whiners.

Then take all those dollars and instead tell Dr. Paul we'll each give him 250 dollars right away to fund national TV commercials and ballot access for an independent run.

Stop being so sensible!

Honestly Congressman Paul keeps saying the People ARE the campaign. It is time for the people to feel visible, counted, noisy, exuberent, peaceful and experience each other in large numbers. An injection in the multitude of arms that no telelvision ad (and I still can't get my head around this concept of MARKETING a politician) could even begin to compete with!

This time is right! Let the games begin!!!

Obviously there are trolls here that want to make this march sound like a bad idea. Think about it...if they thought it was a bad idea and didn't want to go, then they wouldn't go. It's that simple. People who actually support Ron Paul wouldn't come on here and try to convince us it is a bad idea. We all know this. So when you see these threads, just remember they are most likely trolls.

Imagine if you were a Ron Paul supporter, but didn't want to participate in the march. Would you really go out of your way and try to make the march seem like a really bad idea? Besides how bad could a march be? The Government will realize how strong and motivated we are, the media will how no choice but to cover it, and we get to see Ron Paul in person

STOP WITH THE DAMN TROLL TALK.

PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STFU.

I thought 'gay' was synonymous with 'happy...'

And, the DC march will most likely be a dud too.

Then do your damn best to make sure it isn't. I'll see you at the rally.

Last I checked this national march idea was still in "exploratory" mode... so here's my two cents...

There is SO MUCH work yet to be done in our neighborhood and someone out there is gonna have to convince me that I need to spend several hundred dollars on travel, when instead me and my pals here in Missouri could pool that money and spend it locally and hold one heck of a mind blowing political event/statement. Having worked in the "media" I need answers to a few things.... what guarantees that the "bought and paid for" media will greet us with news choppers and live video feeds, and overall squeaky clean reporting about our message and our trek to the nations capitol ???

I suggest we focus the grass roots where the roots are... and in unison march on our state capitols all on the same day. Spend the gas food and hotel money locally... on a local event of substantial size and substance. As a boots on the ground supporter who spends 2-3 days a week helping to get out the message... we still have a HUGE portion of our locals who have no clue who Ron Paul is, and as the media keeps pumping out the garbage, the locals are getting a lot of really bad info about him. More ideas to come.... we've been quietly working on our own substantial march/event weekend pulling together many local associations of merit... that's right folks we stay busy here in Missoura...! My revolution resume....

Our best effort yet to educate our neighbors....

We can promise him the money and the support and if he refuses, look for someone who will accept.

I don't know about Marc Sanford or Jeff Flake, but maybe there is a Gary Johnson (former New Mexico Governor) or someone who is very close to Dr. Paul ideologically who will use the money to run an independent campaign.

I love Dr. Paul, like we all do, but at some point this just becomes stupid. If he won't step up and say he wants people's votes and say he wants the office and actually act like he wants it, then we need to either put him in the position of doing what we expect or finding someone who is pro-freedom and actually wants the job.

The campaign has slowed to a trickle. Has there been a single appearance in Wisconsin? Pennsylvania? (other than the one they won in a contest). It's time to either act like you want the job or pull out and let someone who wants it step up.

He's campaigning in Texas this month for President and also to keep his Congressional seat. Those elections will be held on 3/4, I think.

I think the march is a good idea but, I also think the babies and small children ought to be left at home for their own protection.

I am sure that police will be there in full riot gear.

Why you plan on rioting? That would be a very stupid thing to do :/

 

[tbrambo]

Agreed!

IGNORE THEM! nay-sayers are poison to the Revolution.

Even if they are not trolls their negativity is killing our passion. That's the porblem with most Americans, especially American males. We are weak and scared and always nay-saying about how things aren't going to work, or how it's "dangerous" or we "shouldn't do that"!!!

WHAT EVER! Raise up! MARCH!
