I posted this idea here months ago. It got some interest, but was never solidified. I would like to get a group of us working on this as a side project and have it completed & ready for print and handout by the march. If you'd like to help in this project please post your ideas here on how to collaborate this massive undertaking.

If you're unfamiliar with the Common Sense pamphlet authored by Thomas Paine in 1776, read up on it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Sense_(pamphlet)

If you are already familiar with it, then wouldn't you agree....it's about time for version 2.0?

If we can get it produced by the march, I cannot think of a better way to distribute it to like-minded people. I think we could use a Wiki to coordinate writing.

One person in our original discussion even suggested nailing it to the White House door. I think that would be awesome, but don't know how possible it would be. To catch up, read the original thread here: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=6572

Yes. It is time. We can use it to promote the march on DC.

If you want I can help you come up with some stuff. Email me and we can brainstorm and put some ideas out there.

I'm working on getting a wiki set up. Hope to have it operational by this evening so we can start laying the groundwork.

I don't like it...Huckabee is using a Common Sense theme

He also has a PAC by that name doing robocalls.

ah, screw Huck. If he started using the word "liberty" a lot should we just give up on this movement? :)

OK I have a Wiki set up for us.

http://vaperized.com/wiki

Anyone who is interested in helping in this project, please check it out. This is a closed system, so you'll have to register to view/edit pages first, but will take less than 10 seconds and doesn't even require an email verification.

If you have questions on how to use the Wiki, PM me and I'll help you out.

I've set up a Purpose, and a page for a List of Ideas to address in the pamphlet. Once we've agreed on these things, we'll begin an actual document.

Let's get to work!!
