Exploitation?

"Just one taste of Wild Berry fruit flavor with a Ginseng boost and you'll be read to 'Join the Movement.'" :D

As far as exploitation, another post was complaining that Jones Soda left Dr. Paul out of their election '08 products.

The "Revolution" Dew is the only one that directly connects to Ron Paul anyways... I see it as a good thing.

while it is possible they are trying to capitalize on the ron paul movement, you have to keep in mind companies have often used words like 'revolution' 'extreme' and 'radical' etc, etc. to try and sell mundane everyday products.

It really takes the kick out of our movement. So does the political overselling of "freedom," "liberty," etc...

It's part of their "election" dews. They have a red soda, a blue soda, and the revolution soda is white.

Red-bloody handed republicans
Blue-scared democrats
White-Clean-slate Revolutionaries!

Edit: Maybe we should start a Revolution party, It would definitely have support, and our platform could be follow the Constitution, and fight for the same values as they did in 1776. We could attract libertarians, conservatives, and any freedom loving American. Ron Paul does not have to join or anything og the sort but IF the party was dedicated to true Revolutionary ideas, maybe he might.

They should put a ron paul quote under every bottlecap
