Would you donate (either through direct donations or by purchasing (even more) copies of his book) to keep Ron Paul on tour, giving speeches to universities and such across the country?
It'd be nice if his book sales could fund a continuous tour throughout the U.S. I'm sure many people would show up at the rallies to buy extra copies to keep the tour going. It doesn't look as though this is going to take place, so I'm assuming the book sales wouldn't do enough to help cover the expenses.
Although some may not be in full agreement with his approach to spreading the message, I've yet to see anyone else have such a large influence while fighting for this cause. (I don't mean to imply he did all of this himself. Here is an example of what I'm referring to: A man standing next to me said, "Thank god someone is finally telling us the truth." I looked over at another gentleman and noticed he had tears in his eyes while clapping. On the way out after the event I heard a woman say to her husband, "That man has the hand of god on his shoulders." Her husband replied, "He’s the only one standing up for us." <http://www.nationalexpositor.com/News/360.html>)

It would be alot to ask from Dr. Paul, but maybe even a steady stream of weekly youtube videos from Washington or Texas would serve the purpose.
I sincerely hope Ron Paul gets a chance to read this article before Thomas Foley gets a chance to work on his assignment. This to me was the most impressive and scary part of that article:
"They expressed concern that Paul’s rallies have attracted multitudes of young people who are getting “their political education.” They want Republicans to pressure Paul to drop out now and stop his education rallies. This assignment was given to Thomas Foley, former U.S. House speaker."
