Not really media but Jones Soda put the presidential candidates on their bottles and guess what, McHilObama are there but no Ron. Not even Bob Barr. This 2 party system sucks.

I signed up and created a new thread to go with yours and the other one posted. I suggest everyone go over there and create a new thread to express your distaste with the lack of Ron Paul Cola.

It just goes to show - you may be able to buy anyone else, but nobody can buy Ron Paul. ;)

Hahaha. If Jones made a Ron Paul soda, I'd personally buy a couple cases. :) It'd be so neat. I love their Bubblegum soda.

Somehow it isn't quite as insulting to be dissed by a company that makes Mashed Potato and Gravy soda and Green Bean soda as it is to be dissed by the MSM...

Seriously think of how much they would have sold. I don't drink pop but I would probably have bought a case for the heck of it.

or- someone could start their own soda company w/ all kinds of freedom info on it? Liberty Soda?

There is a formula here- this is better than buying signs on lawns. Liberty Soda is the message of liberty "FUNDED BY PROFIT".

Why imagine how much money they could have made- go make the money yourself!

what's pop?

It's the noise carbonated beverages used to make when the corks that were used to seal the bottles was removed.

Damn Yankee.

That's what us hicks from the PA/Ohio area call soda.

Damn I got goofed on for saying that when I moved to the East coast. Snobs. :D

We call it all different things in Indiana:

Pop, Soda, Coke, Cola, Soft Drink, Drink, Beverage, Carbonated Beverage. It doesn't really matter what it's called, I want one.

Once on a cross country trip I bought a soda at a mini-mart. The clerk asked me if I wanted my"pop in a sack?" :confused: I was kinda dumbstruck before I realized I was in Iowa and people talk weird there.

Ron Paul implicitly endorsed Jones Soda in his book, since it is made with sugar instead of corn syrup.

Yeah, I forgot the English language is losing it's ability to be descriptive. So many unsophisticated people attempting to speak it these days. :rolleyes:

It used to be people would sometimes wear gay clothes... now some people are gay and the clothes are manufactured in the orient.

Is this so the dictionary writers can stay in business? In stead of adding more words, they just find it necessary to change the definition of many of them.

I suppose it could just be the typical lazy American way of doing things. :p

Well, actually the term was used for clothing that was brilliant in color.
Actually, I believe it still may be.

Give me a break...you really think they are going to spend the money to put Bob Barr on their bottles? You know how many bottles owuld get sold? Maybe 2.

That damn company for not wanting to waste money just to please YOU!

And why stop at Bob Barr in your logic? Why not force them to put every single candidate who will get 0.05% of the vote on their bottles?

Someone should point out to Jones Soda the serious market potential there is with a Ron Paul labeled product.

If you would rather have high fructose corn syrup in your soda, then you can just stick with the other companies.

The major reason I like Jones Soda is because it doesn't have any high fructose corn syrup in it. They use pure cane sugar. The sugar is much better for you than the HFCS is.

That's great, but there's still too much sugar.

I have to mix it with hard liquor or it leaves a bad taste i my mouth (much like full calorie versions of other drinks).
