What if Ron Paul is left out of the debates?

[Eagle_of_Liberty]

Like he was left out of some of the 2008 ones.

The key to winning over the people lies in his media coverage in the debates; I think alot of people actually agree with him but don't know it yet.

We'll email bomb the hell out of the network.

 

[olehounddog]

Just don't see that happening this time.

i HIGHLY doubt anyone would leave Ron out of the debates. They couldn't deal with the angry calls/letters/protests we'd organize. They know better......

We could pack the house and keep booing and never shut up which wouldn't even give them the chance to speak. I'm sure others would look down on us for that though. There has to be a better way but this could be one option.

Rent the conference room down the hall and get higher attendence than the "main event" - just like last time - leave egg on their faces again.

Snowballs for everyone. I'm thinking of the movie Elf.

This is not going to happen.

 

[Dr.3D]

Then he wouldn't have to put up with stupid questions like this one.



Why can't they ask all of those in the debate the same questions?
If they don't, the deck is stacked for those asking the questions and they can avoid any issue they want.

Ron has been on TV more than any member of Congress. In fact I had heard he had more facetime than the President. He's often on 3, 4, and even 5 times a week giving interviews. They won't ignore him this time, they can't, they've given him too much credibility.

 

[trey4sports]

Put it this way, if there were serious shenanigans going on we would wage all-out war on them........ and we'd win.

It's unlikely any serious or credible organization hosting a debate would dare to challenge the liberty movement now. This could happen if a minor group hosts and "major" or "front-runner" candidates opt to use the event as a political ploy. They will be looking for opportunities and ways to marginalize and create a "fringe" message for successes and support. This has already been established. While it's comical to watch the centralized efforts blunder about and lose ground (for now), it's still chilling knowing the command they have over collective memories when they start to get their memetic formulas in high gear. It is not inconceivable that a defunct or marginal group like YAF could be used for such an effort.

It's also not inconceivable that this will be seen as desperate by the masses, which could be terrific for us.

1)Lets launch a moneybomb on every primary debate day (or the day before). This has to be done especially during the early primary debates. This will bring attention to Ron Paul. If Dr Paul once has won one primary, an exclusion from the following debate(s) is unlikely to happen.
2) FAUX has some supporters of Dr Paul: napolitano and stossel. BOMB them with emails. Call into their shows etc...
3) Reactivate the blimp and let it fly above the particular convention center where the debate takes place. You can use the money collected with the moneybomb to finance this.

What about a bomb right after the debate? You might get people donating based on a good debate performance...

That seems to be a great idea, as long as he is allowed to participate...

We'll go Wisconsin on their asses

 

[ChrisDixon]

They'll probably let him in the debates, just to have an opportunity to attempt discrediting him on national television. Remember the "North American Union" question last year? They'll try potraying him as some kind of conspiracy theory crack job (the mainstream already thinks we all are). Then remember the Fox News moderator who replied to Paul's point about leaving the Middle East with the question "So you say we should take our marching orders from Al Qaeda?" I know, we all see through this. But how many mainstream crowds get turned off when people talk about anything remotely off the mainstream doctrine of news and history? Or how many mainstream Republicans get turned off by terrorist appeasement?

I'm not worried about Ron being left out. I'm worried about him being set up to be knocked over on national television. And we all know he's not the best when it comes to swift rebuttals. He's well-thought, but not always well-spoken. They'll soundbite him to hell and back afterwards.
