Will the Revolution grow 2x or 4x's it's size in 4 years?

[Michigan11]

My guess is it will likely double in 2 years from now.

What do you think?

Hard to tell, personally I think what really helped us grow was the speculation of Ron running again this cycle and actually getting a solid from beginning to end.

Now that he's retiring (which he deserves and I humbly respect his decision) it may be harder to keep the Revolution concentrated in the right direction, maybe C4L will step it up..and I also wonder if Ron is going to take a PR break for a while or keep doing speeches/interviews/crossing the deleware/whatever.

I know i'm not going anywhere, my message has changed from "Google Ron Paul" to "what is the proper role of government?".

Well when I joined this movement we were following the only liberty congressman there was. Now we have Rand, Amash, and were going to have Bentivolio and Massie, and maybe more including Robinson... That's 4 more lights of liberty torches burning and thats just at the national level, while we gave most of our money to RP this cycle. 2014 is going to be like a bat out of hell crashing the gates. Think Rocky 4!

I'm curious as to whether or not you still back Bills after he fully endorsed Romney?

Glad you reminded me, to be honest I go by my gut instincts, and from the beginning I was 50/50 on Bills, as I posted early on, but I am still in a wait and see and observe approach. Basically I'm watching him, not in a weird way either!

I could care less who our candidates at this point endorse, however their voting records are what I care about, but I did decide to remove him from my sig for now, and I don't think he has what it takes to actually win anyways, but on Art Robinson my gut says he's good and he probably has a 50/50 chance of winning this time, so maybe replace kurt bills sub-forum with Art Robinson.

My gut was good with Ron, Rand, Amash, Bentivolio, Massie too.

Chris Hightower I see as a rising star in this movement!

We need to find 1-3 solid issues we are "known for" and start nation-wide campaigns via social media, canvassing, etc. to promote and always make sure people know that Ron Paul was the one to make it a popular issue.

Such as:

The Federal Reserve
A return to a constitutional foreign policy. That of free trade and non-intervention
Or, even the necessity of a third party in today's political environment.

This movement saw the same pattern in 08', it will continue to grow. Alot of people will see Ron's purpose soon. He built the Freedom Highway infrastructure to get more liberty candidates and activists into powers of position. There is a reason we see this pattern and those posting to try and discourage and divide us are in it for different reasons.

are you seriously spamming this board with your own advert?

Even the Federal Reserve is not the real root issue, it's sound money and control of the money supply. No central bank, or any other institution by another name, to control either. Education of this matters a whole lot.

Sound Money (Federal Reserve)
Constitutional (golden rule) foreign policy
Civil liberties

Who's to say what size it is right now?

I remember back in the sixties how the media had us all under their thumb. We didn't really know it at the time but it was like they would get on in front of us and tell us what everyone believed. We believed what they said we believed and believed everyone else believed what they said we believed...or something like that.

Anyway we all knew that there was someone who just didn't fit in. Ourselves.


Then something happened. It was called the Beatles. They came to America and they were in all of the news and on The Ed Sullivan Show.



Some how they were controversial enough that they did a simple thing; they got everyone talking about whether you liked them or not.

Soon we found ourselves divided in to two camps. Then we started talking about other things. One of those things was the war in Vietnam. The camps stated to drift apart. One camp started letting their freak flag fly by letting their hair grow. People started meeting up in parks and other places to hang out and talk. Music was a big part of many of the meetings.

The other had their crew cuts and the television feeding them lies that they clung to like...well I guess much like many of us do now.

Anyway the one big thing that lots of us realized was is that we were not alone. At first we felt we were alone in our feelings but we never really were. All it took was a little getting together and comparing notes.

And maybe a little letting your freak flag fly a little.

Right, it was just a brief example, though. The details would be worked out if we were to engage in something as proposed.

If you get a chance check out the crowd in the Beatles video and compare with the crowd in the Woodstock one just a few years later.

I'm not saying everything we did was right but we did manage to have a little fun and friendship, to grow and learn together, and travel through life with.

That's true but we have to first educate the public about the Fed and that's been happening in a big time way, so we have to appreciate these victories along the way to continue on. Remember no long faces.... good post man

 

[Carson]

Maybe a little Woodstock with a little music like it was meant to be.




Welcome to the revolution.

 

[Michigan11]

Anyone feeling down, should go back and find some 2007 posts, we were very very very small in numbers, trying to find our way. Look where we are right now. What if we all would have said it hopeless back then?

None of us would even be here right now.

I know, I guess I was just looking for something good to get into discussion about. I'm sorry if it seemed like I was over talking.

 

[muzzled dogg]

Honestly I think the revolution as we know it is done

There will be no common thread four years from now tying us all together

My motivation for coming down to tampa this cycle was to try to get people who are serious about liberty on our lifetime to move up to nh. If you think that this grassroots is going to get this motivated for anyone in 2016, rand included, you're living in an Internet dream world.

That's a short sited view Shemdogg. What about our liberty candidates elected and to come? Only RP? Ideology he preached matters to you or not?
