I work cheap... My thoughts are that we cannot sit back and let someone else do it. Either we have concern for this country and our freedom or we do not. Paul needs all the help he can muster. Like the Founding Fathers he needs good people to answer the call.
I presume you are looking for graphic design people, writers, ad people or whatever to volunteer. Surely we have such here on 4um. Just dont let Jethro be in charge of the GRUNT section.
yes
Paul needs all the help he can muster. Like the Founding Fathers he needs good people to answer the call. We all must answer the call.

Few will answer, the many will be known by their absence.
hmmm, too bad you didn't need a soundtrack for a new video.
I'll donate if they can get a ChipIn, or some other online paymaster, or a good mailing address.
You know all the ladies here.
I can give some time and expertise. I have some graphics abilities and good software.
Read New History It might be a good idea to surf around to see what type of political ads work in NH. What do they like to see? What do they want to hear? Tired of negative ads? Tired of the 'status quo'? Short and sweet, with a link to info....or a Smack Down on a single topic. What are they most interested in? Can it be translated into a bumper sticker? (sorry) Can the NH MUG's be engaged to help? "Truth has always been found to promote the best interests of mankind." -- Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) British poet http://quotes.liberty-tree.ca/quote_blog/Percy.Shelley.Quote.717C Americans, divided we fail. And that's exactly why we are in trouble today. Join me to put our house back in order. It may be our last chance. Hope for America is in your hands. Liberty and Freedom is fire that burns within the human heart, let's fan the flames!
The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe with blood for centuries. James Madison (1751-1836),Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President During the first few days of October, we announced our fundraising goal for the fourth quarter: $12 million raised by December 31. But there's more: we need to have spent it by then, too. If we were to raise the entire $12 million in the last week of December, we would meet our fundraising goal for the quarter. But Ron Paul would stand little chance of winning the Republican nomination, because that money would have come in too late. Time is of the essence. You see, we need to raise money well before we plan to spend it. That's because most of the expenditures that we make need to be paid for weeks in advance. For example, we need to buy crucial airtime for the end of December right now. The sooner we raise this money, the sooner that we can spread Dr. Paul's message - our message - in the early primary states. Time truly is money. Fact is, we only have about two weeks to raise money for the early primaries. If you wait a month from now to donate, your money will only be spent after Iowa caucus-goers and New Hampshire primary voters have made up their minds. We are rapidly running out of time. The Iowa caucus is just 44 days away. New Hampshire is in 49 days. With so much ground to make up, we can't afford to waste a single day. As a result, we are spending faster than the rate at which we are raising money. In October alone, we raised $2.8 million, but our campaign spent over $3.1 million. We cannot afford to wait for bursts of press activity. What we need is sustained attention in the news. What better way to do this than by continuing to raise money at a rapid pace now? We need to keep our momentum going. Help us win in New Hampshire, Iowa, South Carolina, and Nevada. Make your most generous contribution as soon as you can: https://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate.

I think we need our own ad, although that's a super good one.

Jon... Most people are impulse donaters. Something has to TRIGGER that urge to give and whining emails do not serve that purpose. Your donors will RESIST giving if you cry wolf, it wont work. The slicks around Paul will just have to manage, the little people are not cash cows that curry favor from the other candidates.
Thanks Lod. Might be a little schmaltzy. Gotta start somewhere.

It's just a newspaper ad, but I wonder how much he charges? Maybe you could find out.

Good points. All true. Though there is one important take away from his email. The clock is ticking and there are only 44 days left till the Iowa Caucus. The TEA PARTY is just over 3 weeks out. I don't like to be squeezed either.
The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe with blood for centuries. James Madison (1751-1836),Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President Or round file material! LOLOL!!!

James Madison (1751-1836),Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President True... There is an extension of your thinking in that Paul MUST have a good showing on Dec 16. Another blockbuster day,may not pay the bills now but it is worth a fortune in FREE advertising afterwards. In other words I would trade short comings now for long term gain on the 16th.
No way, those are good!

In other words I would trade short comings now for long term gain on the 16th. You are right on each count. But if I may counter by suggesting, we can not ride the 11/5 success for 3 weeks. The only thing that comes to mind, is to see if the MuG's could coordinate a 'signage' date all over the country.

James Madison (1751-1836),Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President Knowing what newspaper this is for will determine a lot. If one were to aim for the small freebie classifieds, like those found in mini-marts by the door, you might get more bang for the buck plus more coverage to the 'lil people' who read the small classifieds ~ instead of one big ad in one newspaper, you could have one medium ad in a 1/2 dozen papers, across the state. ~ am on a quick lunch break in the middle of a marathon week, but will watch this thread and am willing to pitch in ~ the idea is worth pursuing *s

A failure on the 16th would be trumpeted from coast to coast by the media. that is what happens when one sets time limits and donation goals. Overall Paul has come up roses depending on the little guy, and if I were him, I would continue.

alright!
Are there any Ron Paul billboards up in NH?

Oh good. Maybe you and Original_Intent could start creating something. Peppa posted some good quotes and one liners. Of course, we need images, visuals. It would be practical if the ad could be a size usable as flyers too.

I volunteered grunt work and loot and hope others that are creative will step forward and help Christine, robin and zip in this effort. Everyone has loot of some nature and that is mandatory.

"THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated. ..."

Was looking around for a specific quote. I still haven't found it, but collected these gems to share.
They have always taught and trained you to believe it to be your patriotic duty to go to war and to have yourselves slaughtered at their command. But in all the history of the world you, the people, have never had a voice in declaring war, and strange as it certainly appears, no war by any nation in any age has ever been declared by the people.
Our duty, as men and women is to proceed as if limits to our ability did not exist. We are collaborators in creation.
Our duty, as men and women is to proceed as if limits to our ability did not exist. We are collaborators in creation.
The man who does not do his own thinking is a slave, and is a traitor to himself and his fellow men.
The brave man inattentive to his duty, is worth little more to his country than the coward who deserts her in the hour of danger.
