Title: New Hampshire Freedom4um Ad is Ready to Go!

Thanks to those here for your time and interest in creating our ad (a special thanks to Critter) for the Manchester Union Leader. Pending agreement with the paper, our plan is to run it on Sunday, January 6th , two days before the New Hampshire primary.

We have two choices. The 4 x 6 Black and White for $1100 and 4 x 6 Color for $1864. Our preference, of course, is the eye catching color!

Several 4um members have pledged financial support and now we need to hear from others who enjoy posting here on a regular basis. I believe that the presidency of Ron Paul is our last chance to Restore our Republic and to save our country.

I would appreciate it so much if we at Freedom4um could do our part in making this happen. You may PM me with your pledges and with complete confidentiality. (1 image)

Subliminal messages in the ad:

1. Title statement looks like a fact. For a casual careless observer who does not go deeper than title this could be an ad for the person named in the title.

2. 2nd line "Scare" is negative. Instinctive answer to the question is NO (I don't get scared -> I'm not with you)

3 "scares us" - repeats 2. -> Those who get scared loose.

4. "Put an end to war on drugs"? Like, is he actually FOR them?

5. 5-end stars in the photo can be interpreted as a hint that the object is part of the system.

Just some marketing thoughts...

With those two it would be difficult for MSM to ignore him.

I agree. A lot of poeple won't notice anything but the title and think it is an ad for Hilary and instead of getting scared they might even like it. Instead of going negative like Fred and McCain did in the debate it might be good to only talk about the positives - Ron Paul's stance on the issues.

God is always good!

New Englanders may be an ornery lot but they are honest. Most will at least speed read the ad and if they already have problems with Hillary it will be reinforced one more time.

We will get a circulation of over 250,000 statewide with a readership in excess of 300,000. Those are people that vote. If we get 30,000 to read the ad and think,our money is well spent.

Voting for the sorry lot of Giuliani and McLame has got to sour the thoughts of many people.

Always a dangerous thing, but I just had a thought from back when I was purchasing advertisements: do we get a 'proof' before we pay and the ad runs? After reading their whacked endorsement of McChurian, I'm not sure that I trust those guys...

No proofie, no payie was the motto, back when.

No proofie, no payie

Bill Loeb was an honest man. I dont know who runs the show now but I am satisfied not much has changed.

Below about bills wife, I liked the last sentence.

"She and her late husband, William Loeb, bought the two papers in the 1940s, and her husband was credited with turning them into some of the nation's most conservative. He earned a national reputation for himself and the newspapers with a blunt editorial style and active involvement in presidential primaries and state politics.

The Union Leader is the largest newspaper in the state and the only statewide daily, and the Sunday News is the New Hampshire's largest Sunday paper. Their endorsement in any election -- from mayoral to gubernatorial to presidential -- carried enormous weight. Forbes called Mrs. Loeb "a great conservative, a good friend and a principled ally."

Mrs. Loeb, who also was an heir to the Scripps Howard publishing fortune, took over as publisher after her husband died in 1981. During her 18 years at the helm, she pursued a more subdued, but still forceful approach. During a February visit by President Clinton, she didn't hesitate to publish a front-page editorial with the headline, "Mr. President, you're a disgrace!"

Not to bash the ad but i didnt like the 'SCARE' deal either. most probably because i have heard identical sentiment from numerous people who support rudy since 'we can't have hillary'. when i ask them why they'd support an abortionist gun-grabbing crossdresser when theyre purportedly conservatives, they say 'BUT WE CANT HAVE HILLARY NOW THAT IS A SCARY THOUGHT!'.

whenever i see a 'NO HILLARY' sticker here it usually accompanies a 'support our troops' yellow ribbon or a dubya sticker.

so, while you're right that the hillary fear factor may sell, i think that that aspect may be largely irrelevant when the race we're in is among only REPUBS. maybe something like , 'who really represents traditional conservatism, and has the record to prove it?' Paul quashes all the other posers. so something along those lines would work.

Great idea for the ad, maybe i can price some such ads here in local papers.

I agree with you.

If a large group of people formed a corporation purposed to produce and market automobiles (like GM), could they then hire gunmen as salespersons to increase their sales? Well that's exactly what governments do.

Can I still get the goofy photo if I'm too cheap to send $50?

If I send $100 do I get 2 goofy photos?

How about 25 goofy photos for $1000?

And don't worry, I've got everybody bozoed EXCEPT you, including myself.

Will you send naked goofy photos to the hard-core Republicans?

If I send you a SASE wil you send me a copy of the terms and conditions?

I need some answers ASAP. Especially about the naked thingy.

Ron Paul admires Friedman (Milton Friedman 1912-2006 by Ron Paul). I think at one level, we have people who think in partisan terms, lumping people together with their ideas. At a higher level, there are only ideas.

Ideas are different from actions. Ron Paul's notions of free markets are probably not very different from Milton Friedman's. But I doubt that Ron Paul would have cozied up to a dictator who had been installed with the help of American intervention.

I think we have to decide if we like Ron Paul's ideas about free markets. Have they guided him in the right direction during his life? Has he lived up to his stated ideals, or has he at least done a good job of trying?

RP has discussed his positions on Trade. Free Trade. He said, he supported some agreements, and others he did not. He does not support trade where there is no mutal benefit to such agreements. Meaning, if America loses, he does not support it. In the interview I saw, he gave more specifics as to which he did not support.

He believes in Trade, but ONLY where there is mutual benefit.

Seems he might be the only one that truly looks at when it is good for us and when it is not.

I don't think he intends to impose any serious trade restrictions. He didn't oppose the Dubai ports deal. He doesn't oppose MFN status for China. He says that NAFTA/CAFTA are wrong because they are "managed" trade, not because they allow free (unfettered) trade.

Ron Paul won't be saving the middle class with "fair" trade. He would work to save the middle class by opening up competition to our fiat currency. That could do more to help than imposing arbitrary fair trade standards.

It remains to be seen.

True it does.

Managed trade, meaning to me anyway, that there is no mutual benefit.

RP himself says that the trade agreements are to be examined one by one. They are complicated, and I believe they are because of all the hands in the pot. So, do we really know the actual above and below board deals for each of these agreements. I suspect he'd rip them apart, but then, we'll never know if he is not elected.

We should read his positions and go from there. I wonder if there is any YT vid out there that gets into this issue in depth.
