How many people are participating in the money bomb tomorrow?

[torchbearer]

I haven't seen much discussion on this topic. How many people are participating in the http://www.libertywarchest.com moneybomb tomorrow for our congressional candidates?

Valentines Day, show some love!

Also- just curious how people hadn't even heard about it. :cool:

[Feelgood]

I'm not. These are completely meaningless. :rolleyes:

[yongrel]

Me! I've managed to scrape some cash together.

[Jeremy]

I'm not. These are completely meaningless. :rolleyes:

Donating is meaningless? Who cares if there is a moneybomb or not

I'm pretty sure the 400k goal was for... tomorrow!!

[Cowlesy]

I'm not. These are completely meaningless. :rolleyes:

Feelgood - I am seriously tired of your shit on this board --- all your posts are negative garbage or some snide, snarky remark. I think you might be the second person in about 8 months I've actually bothered to publicly acknowledge is a problem-causer.

Why don't you take your attitude elsewhere? Are you another wonktard troll like Redcard?

If you don't have anything better to do than poo-poo the positive work by good-hearted grassroots supporters, get the fuck off the board.

Thanks.

I think they are having libertywarchest once a month.
So if you can't donate to this one, they will have another one about the same time next month.

I had no idea there was a money bomb tomorrow.

I knew there was one planned this month, I just didn't know which day.

Hadn't heard of it.

[torchbearer]

Well I'm glad I mentioned it. At least we'll catch everyone on the board tonight... and if we can, keep this topic up in grassroots tomorrow.
Every little bit helps.

[Sey.Naci]

Guess Feelgood feels good only when he's trying to make others feel bad. Must be the misery loves company syndrome.

[torchbearer]

I've gained over $3000 this week for my campaign alone... and my moneybomb isn't until march 2nd.
People have been very generous, and the emails have been inspirational.

Think of this as our second wave....we must be relentless...

Brent, that link isn't working.

Sorry, it messed up when i copy and paste it.. try this one: http://www.legis.state.la.us/election2003/03hseprimary.htm

[Cowlesy]

Just remember guys, never think for a second that you should balk at chipping in $5 or $10 to the cause. It's my opinion that the primary reason moneybombs succeed or fail is whether or not people believe that their small donation can make a difference.

Well let me tell you, for all our Ron Paul Republicans running...every single dollar counts, and when everyone understands this, the multiplier effect on the amount of donations can be staggering.

1 one person on here pulls the trigger and donates $10.00, and then 50 other people who view this thread also see it and decide to pull the trigger, your minimum is $500 --- and if half of them go $20---you're at $750. Maybe you have one big-show in there that is touched an drops $250?

RPForums has consistently demonstrated that when we motivate folks by giving them an honest candidate who authentically needs their help, we turn into a huge force for funding.

if you've got the spare change, please join in my moneybomb march 2nd & 3rd.
http://www.moneybomb1.com to sign up.

I've got a widget up like Dr. Paul http://www.joinsanders.com
Its motivating to see it go up so fast... I was just at 1200 a couple days ago.

We raised $400,000 for the blimp easily, we raise 4mil and 6mil each in a day for ron paul.. $300,000 should be doable.

I'm anxious about it.. because it could just as easily fail, it just depend on how excited people are about the prospect of getting me into congress.

I wish I were in the position to run, though living in the 14th district of Texas, I have a few terms yet before I have a congressional goal=)>

I am going to go back to college and prepare to enter into politics. I am certainly willing to help anyone who has the ability to run now in every way I can.

Has anyone told Ron Paul himself about this money bomb tomorrow? I'm sure he would be very interested and quite generous.

I'd love to see a story about it on the daily dose tomorrow.

I also am planning to enter the big arena, but Priority #1 right now is to get into a top Law school. If I feel I have the time, I am considering a State Rep run while in school, to prepare for the Federal Rep position I hope to run for someday, hopefully by then "Republican" will have a meaning that I am proud of.

I'm planning on giving a little to each RPR running.

Seriously???? Fantastic again!!!

You alone know the path that suits you best, I'd humbly suggest blasting your LSAT's, getting top-rate grades in Law School...and considering the political arena when you're comfortable pledging 100% of your time to it.

Everyone's path to politics is different. We see that in our current Congress which spans the spectrum of J.D.'s to people with some college experience. Know that if you're in line with the Constitution and thereby Ron Paul's views on the role of government, there IS a base ready here to listen to your message and consider bringing the guns to bear.

Cowlesy, did I ever tell you I like your new avatar?
Did you ever watch that G. Edward Griffon Seminar i posted on here where he talks about the analogy of the pirates?

Well if Rodney Alexander (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_Alexander) is the only guy you are running against I think you have a good chance. I can't believe after all the scandals he has been through he has continued to be the 5th district's congressman. . . . .


. . . .well on second thought I suppose i can believe that he kept his seat, we are talking about the same state that had the Edwards V Duke gubernatorial race. I still remember the bumper stickers: "Vote for the crook, it's important." or "Vote for the lizard, not the wizard" . . . .


. . . . Man i really miss Louisiana politics!

Also, if you remember the thread about $8 thirty second cable TV spots... Well just about every cable company has inexpensive spots like this, so your $10 could reach 100k viewers in a candidates district.

Ditto. Very good video.

I was wondering if we could have a permanent folder on Ron Paul Forums for our Liberty candidates seeking office since the posts tend to disappear into the later pages so quickly.

The best way to support them, besides donations, is to keep them prominent on these boards, which naturally would help secure more donations.

If there already is a folder, what is it?
