One of the other posts sparked an idea. We have a limit to the amount of money we can give to Ron Paul ($2300) and I know there is a lot of people out there who can't give this much or much at all, but there are some people out there who would like to give more than $2300. Here is my idea and there is a problem with it, but we'll see what ideas people have.
How about we setup a main site for people that can give more than $2300 to pool that money together. Then we can contact the people who can't give the max and divvy out the extra money to the Ron Paul campaign in their name.
The problem is, how would you trust the person that is doing it? I would be more than willing to do it. I'll even setup the website, but how do you know that I would actually do it? Here is my idea on possibly proving it. Have a site that shows what each person has donated in total and then if Ron Pauls campaign can validate the money comming from the people we'll give in their name. They should match exactly. Don't know if Ron Paul's people can do this or not, but it would be a great way to get more money to the future president and would also allow richer/millionaires to give what they see fit and we can even it out over tons of people.
This would also be a great way to recruit people to the cause. You can say to someone, "How would you like to give a campaign donation to a candidate who wants to change the world?" "Now what if we did it for you, would you support Ron Paul?" It almost like buying a vote without buying a vote.
Of course I could be WAY off on this one.
