I LOVE IT !
You must be registered with the correct party to vote for Ron Paul in states with CLOSED PRIMARIES. Click Primarily Paul and scroll down to the State by State chart. The black and white is great for a black and white ad, the color is wonderful for a color ad.

Not bad at all, and I'll pony up. But why does it have to start off like every other Republican ad? I get phone calls all the time from groups and candidates asking "Do you want Hillary to be president?" Of course the answer is no, but I always tell them that I think it's more important decide what you are for, and that any money I have is going to Paul, not them. I do understand it has to be acceptable to the paper, too. But I'm wondering how effective that opening really is anymore with the Republican base. Paul is not just another Republican, and for me the headline detracts from that.

One thing I heard this morning on the news, is that 60% of NH folks are 'undecided'. This ad is GUTSY. It puts the most important things in black and white. And, RP can back it up. NONE of the others speak for Americans first.

My 2 cents: Illegal immigration; disarming citizens; warrantless searches; income taxes; fruitless, endless war. (Have a little pic symbolizing each, kinda collage-like.) Is there a Doctor in the White House? No. But there could be.

But are you a part of the Republican base? I think the Republican base is scared to death of Hillary. People like us who already know and believe in Ron Paul don't need to be sold. We have to sell it to the base. Since not many of us are part of the Republican "base", our opinion really doesn't matter, does it? What we have to do is figure out how to turn the opinion of those who do matter. I guess what I am saying is that we have to figure out the best way to reach the people who don't already believe in Ron Paul.

RP is beyond the two party fraud. Why give it support. Wonderful work, by the way.

The more input Christine receives, the more choices to ensure she is coming up with the best. If olde Jethro is going to pry loose some loot, guess I will have too also.

Maybe the RNC knows that it works, so that is why they use it? I have to assume that they spent about half a billion dollars studying what works. lol And we are competing against them for the same potential voter. It's like when I was trying to decide on a design for my window stickers and yard signs for my alarm business. I looked at the design of the nation's largest company, ADT, and said to myself, "Well if they can go with one color, blue, on a white background, why should I do anything fancier?" I should think they studied the issue long and hard before they settled for their design.
But why does it have to start off like every other Republican ad?
#419. To: angle (#415)
Anyone who knows that is already voting for RP. We need to move the unlearned masses.

Isn't it the dems that are the swing vote?
RP is the only republican who can beat hillary. i think that will resonate with GOP voters because that is their biggest fear.
#421. To: Critter (#419) (Edited)
yes, RP does that to people, doesn't he?
to move the unlearned masses
#422. To: christine, critter (#380)
I don't think that's RP's message and I caution against that tactic.
scare, fear
#423. To: Cynicom (#416)
Bless you too Cyni. It's getting time to get serious. Freedom here is on borrowed time. This time next year, we may never again have the chance to have our voices heard by such a candidate. We probably won't have RP making another run in 4 or 8 years. We may not even have elections. Freedom comes with a price. 4um charges nothing for us to post here, and has never asked for a dime. I think it's time, those able, chip in and stand up. A vote for RP is a vote for yourself. It's an investment. It's not like throwing money down the toilet at TOS'S of old. For NOTHING. This is for something bigger than us all.
If olde Jethro is going to pry loose some loot, guess I will have too also.

My two bits... Ron Pauls platform is.."The Constitution"... I admit I stole that from somewhere. If he stands on the Constitution, how can anyone argue with that?

Well, okay. I dont want to be a freerider, I do spend time here most every day. You dont kneecap people that hide their loot do you??? You know full well that conservatives sit on their wallets and their hearing goes South when you ask for money?

Pep It boils down to this other than Ron Paul we will have most likely Hillary. To my mind with her comes this country's demise, a dictatorship if you will. Bush has set everything in place for her coronation. For those that are enamored with their own station in life and cannot see beyond their bankbook, there is a huge surprise awaiting you. This government and Hillary has great plans for everyone.

I like the ad but there's a part of me that worries - like Tauzero and a few others do - that using the fear tactic against Hillary alone is not the full picture. And are we certain that there are "numerous" polls that show RP beating Hillary? The other "enemies" of America are the RINO's and NEOCONs. Also the reference to the income tax thingie worries me in the sense that it's not a realistic goal for a Prez to accomplish or even set in motion. Ron Paul would not increase income taxes - that's for sure and that's what people would like to hear - but doing away with the IRS is a stretch - it almost makes him sound pie in the sky frivolous. a. I think we could keep the are you scared of President Hillary in. But if we could also incorporate the fear of being betrayed by yet another RINO Neocon candidate that would speak to both concerns of GOP delegates...maybe in the text that follows in smaller print: Or another RINO in the Oval Office? then "Do those images scare you" b. Also in the paragraph that follows, I'd say "We are asking you to vote for the only candidate who can beat Hillary Clinton in a general election and who will put America First and who will stay true to the Constitution. c. On the left side of RP's photo I'd delete the income tax abolishment phrase and replace it with "Work to downsize government agencies" or something to that effect. d. Also on the right side of his photo, I'd delete "never voted for an unbalanced budget" - kind of redundent to the other stuff you have about taxes. Instead I'd put in "Is not beholden to any special interest lobby groups"
I guess what I am saying is that we have to figure out the best way to reach the people who don't already believe in Ron Paul.

Along those lines, I would be much less specific about what Paul will do. The more specific you are, the more you give people reason to not support him. Just give them the URL and 800 number. Eliminate the negative (the things I listed. Can't be a long list.) Accentuate the positive. And the positive is Paul himself. I'm a small-f fascist myself, so I know I'm right on this.
Maybe the RNC knows that it works, so that is why they use it?
