Good Morning America Wants Ron Paul Supporters
February 4th, 2008 by Dan McCarthy

Good Morning America just called up Ron Paul HQ to ask us to get the word out that they’d like to see some of our supporters on the show tomorrow. They’ll be broadcasting from 44th and Broadway, New York City, tomorrow morning from 7 to 9 am Eastern. Get there early to get a good space (other campaigns will be out force as well) and bring plenty of signs. This is a great chance to show a huge national audience how big Ron Paul’s support is.

Yes, 30 foot pole guy or anyone willing to copycat 30 foot pole guy. I'm sure he won't mind.

I'm going to take a guess and say Good Morning America told all the candidate supporters to come

Let's outnumber everyone else!

Heaven forbid they do this anytime BEFORE supertuesday when they might help him get some traction a few days leading up to the primaries.

I wish I had more notice, but being Super Tuesday, it's too far for me, anyway. I am doing some last minute stuff around here, since the polls open at 12pm.

Thanks for the comments, everyone. My understanding is that GMA is doing this as part of their Super Tuesday coverage; it’s not specifically about Ron Paul, and there will be other campaigns. With that in mind, it’s important to show up, so Ron Paul’s support can be seen, and it’s also important to present a welcoming face for the Ron Paul movement. Imagine someone tuning in to GMA and seeing Ron Paul signs for the first time. You don’t want their first exposure to Ron Paul and Ron Paul supporters to be a lot of complaints. So: keep the message positive, keep it pro-Ron Paul. You’ll be reaching a lot of new viewers who will judge Dr. Paul based on what they see of his supporters."

But please don't forget to vote tomorrow also and bring someone to the polls with you.........Winning delegates is the goal!

+1 one this. It is probably especially important since tomorrow is Super Tuesday, and remember how many people wait until the last day to decide for whom to vote...

i agree, it's way more important to be around the polls, watch them, do exit polling, video tape suspicious behavior,
check what happens with the ballots in the evening, follow the cars if necessary, check the rubbish bins for ballots thrown away etc,

Watch out for plants....

WORD.

Also take care to leave any peripheral materials or signs/shirts home.

Ya know the ones I mean......., and hey I'm one of you, but when I go out to promote Dr. Paul I PROMOTE Dr. Paul and no other 'causes'.

Definitely have signs with big letters and have tall poles available so you can get your sign above the other candidates. I'd love to see a "Don't Tax Me Bro" sign too.

Good luck NYC.

Get there with a sign saying how Dr. Paul has more military donations than all the other candidates combined!

Yes Yes. Do up some signs that can actually be used as free mini-billboards that actually give the audience some of issues that are on the table (and some facts and figures too) that they can think about and then google Dr. Paul on.

MSM can be our free advertising tomorrow morning. That would be a nice switch.

Exactly.... You knew precisely what I was talking about.

There are people out there that will do anything to make the Ron Paul campaign LOOK BAD.

Beware of them.
