A couple of days ago, this crazy-looking fellow shows up here at the campaign office asking to help out....today, he's been out front ALL DAY holding a Ron Paul sign and looking completely batshit insane. We've attracted our fair share of weirdos, but this seems odd to me. Is it possible he was paid to do this by another campaign? What can I do to get him to leave?

Absolutely a plant ! Just go outside, tell him you need to take the sign and put it elsewhere, hand him a bumper sticker and thank him.

I don't know how you should go about it, but you really should get him to leave.

Well you have to clarify exactly what he is doing that is insane.


Some people are just weird. If he's a plant, get a bat

Plant or not, it certainly doesn't sound like he's helping our cause. Send him on a coffee run, then send him to buy paper clips, then tell him the paper clips are the wrong size and send him back for bigger ones, etc..........

Ask him about the CFR.

I doubt he's a plant.

he just looks cuddly and warm.

If he is just out there being a walking billboard, whats the problem.

IS he doing anything "weird"?

It's about 70 degrees outside.

One of my friends drove by earlier, then called me and asked "Who's the crazy Vietnam guy standing outside the office?"

He's not weird. It's cold out. And people are only going to see him as they drive past.

Edit: Oh, it's not cold out... Maybe bring it up jokingly. Why the coat/hat? You're scaring away prospective voters.

Maybe he's not a plant, maybe he's just been smokin' some plant!!!!:D:D

Seriously, though, if you don't think he's a good representative for the campaign, just find something else for him to do that will make him feel useful......let him stuff some envelopes in the back room, or in the room behind the back room.....or do ya'll have a basement perhaps????:rolleyes:

You should call the insane asylum an have him arrested for looking kooky! That'll teach those Ron Paul supporters not to look kooky. If that doesn't work, call FEMA and have him sent to a FEMA camp.

Wait, who's the plant?

Explain the problem to him, 70+hat+coat=shithouse rat crazy Then find him something to do, without sharp objects.

If it was 15 degrees colder and he had a flag w/ 50 stars on it I wouldn't see the problem. Just talk to him and get back to us.

The hour is far too late for standing outside with signs. And waving a sign alone always looks crazy. Give him something more productive to do.

Lol, though gheyish sounds your post, wise it is. I love these forums. What's nice, is that once this is all done, the trolls will be gone. By the way, as I said, that guy looks just like an ugly patriot (inside he must be beautiful). Unless...is he doing cartwheels? If so, boot him NOW. Ask him to do a somersault. If he looks like an ass doing it, he's COINTELPRO.

Be careful about asking him to take that coat off. What if he's NUDE underneath??? You think he looks crazy now, just picture him out there butt-ass naked with that flag and nothing covering his willy but that RP sign!!!!!!!!!!

Temperature is relative. I see no leaves on the trees. It looks like a stiff wind. that drops the felt temp.
When I lived in Key West and was used to 90 degree temps, I got cold at 70.
Now living in the Frozen North and used to sub zero. I roll up my sleeves at 32 degrees. and don't wear a coat.
Crazy huh.

Dave Pedersen

All patriots look crazy when they stand alone. Have someone join him out there and he'll look normal all of a sudden. Better yet have someone ask him to help them distribute some flyers in a neighborhood somewhere. Maybe if he starts walking he'll lose the cap and trenchcoat for something more "sane".

Yeah, surround him with people, or give him a job in the back room. Be proactive (and non-confrontational)!

Seriously though, I'd just get a couple more people out there to waive with him.

Why would a plant want his picture taken? I think this guy is just weird. Lets not start a witch hunt.

Get off the internet, get 19 more people and so stand WITH HIM. They he won't look like the only Ron Paul nut out there with a sign. By the way, he doesn't look nuts to me.
