re:

Voted against the Patriot Acts. Patriot Acts or Patriot Act?

...who can beat her, according to the polls.

Maybe this can be improved/changed?

If you can address the above two changes,

And a couple more ideas:

--Perhaps consider using his Toll Free number 1-877-Ron-2008

--You could reword/reduce a little text here, Ad sponsored by Freedom4um.com.

It looks good to go!!!

Thanks Critter, good job !

Voted against the Patriot Acts.

Correct me if I am technically wrong, but isn't there a Patriot Act and Patriot Act II or is it just referred to act Patriot Act II?

...who can beat her, according to the polls.

I've tried a few ways, and none looked great. lol

If someone is a better wordsmith, please, help!

--Perhaps consider using his Toll Free number 1-877-Ron-2008

I thought he had one, but I didn't know what it was, and the contact page on his site doesn't show it. Thanks! I will change it.

One last thing.

Can you fit all the dashes in the phone number?

1-877-Ron-2008

BTW, I called the number to make sure I could reach from my area, it did go through but hit a recording. So I tried their 'regular' number 703-248-9115 , which went to the same recording. SO, I'm assuming that the recorder is on because it's a weekend. (It does give you an opportunity to leave a message if you like)

THAT'S ALL CRITTER !!!! GOOD JOB!! Thank you !

RE: The ad

imo, the most effective ads/ movements don't begin with a negative. hillery is a negative.

Something like:

"Who do you want for our next president?"

"On January 8th, let us nominate the man who can restore our country to truth, principle and freedom."

is better.

#376. To: angle (#375)

My personal feeling is that people don't read newspaper ads unless something grabs their attention. I think the Hillary reference does that. Once we have their attention, she is never mentioned again, only positives about RP.

However, I am not an expert.

Critter,

About the "calling the campaign" suggestion, is the national campaign really equiped to handle lots of incoming calls at that number? And, might the number for the Ron Paul Headquarters in New Hampshire be better, since that is probably where the actual on the ground campaign organizing in NH is taking place?

On January 8th, 2008, help us nominate
the only Republican candidate who can
beat her, according to the polls.

Help us nominate Ron Paul!

Personally, I think this part is too busy. Perhaps simplify/streamline it?

Maybe delete 'according to the polls'? (not really necessary?)

Also, 'nominate' shouldn't be used twice in two sentences, imho.

Using two colors, say, red and blue on the white background could improve it's appeal?

I dunno, I might be wrong, but those are my thoughts.

Otherwise, it still looks great!

I think the Hillary reference does that.

The Hillary reference is genius. RP will take up residence in the average GOP Partybot's head with that hook. It's the only true thing about Paul that could possibly persuade a hidebound Republican party hack to do the right thing.

i agree. it grabs my attention and makes me think, yes, RP is the only republican who can beat hillary. i think that will resonate with GOP voters because that is their biggest fear.

November 28, 2007 Paul: 'Washington did not change me' (CNN) - Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) prefaced his answer to a question about cutting federal spending by responding to a previous statement by Sen. John McCain (R-AZ,) that in 1994, Republicans took control of Congress to change Washington, but instead Washington changed Republicans and spending got "out of control."

Paul said, "The statement earlier made that we all went to Washington to change Washington, Washington changed us. I don't think that applies to me. Washington did not change me. I would have liked to have changed Washington."

Paul eventually answered a question from Emily in Los Angeles who asked specifically which federal programs the candidates would cut in order to reduce spending.

"By cutting three programs such as the Department of Education, Ronald Reagan used to talk about that, Department of Energy. Department of Homeland Security is the biggest bureaucracy we ever had," Paul said.

Wonder if we say, Let's help Ron Paul change Washington.

I disagree.

"According to the polls" provides a foundation for and strengthens the claim.

As for the parallel sentence structure of "Help us nominate", that makes emphatic that RP and the "only candidate who can defeat her, according to the polls" are, indeed, one and the same. So, I don't mind it.

I also think the Freedom4um part stood out more when it was the only unbolded text. Maybe bolding Freedom4um.com only would be better (if you want it bolded).

Finally, there is a capital "C" in the second "Freedom4um.Com".

We're dealing in black and white newsprint, right? I was operating under that assumption. I think color costs more.

I could asterisk the claim, and put "*according to polls blah blah blah" at the bottom somewhere.

We can use either, or parts of either, colorize the first, etc.
