Cowlesy...reaching that goal would be so much easier...if there were more active members in this forum.

Help us out and encourage the inactives to come back

[Mosheh Thezion]

it is my understanding now, that a person does not need 5000 to run...

He mearly must proclaim himself in public, to the public, as a candidate...

its 5000 as an exploritory committe... testing the waters... when you reach 5000 you must file.

or.. making a public committment... before he must file.
i.e... you can file.. without raising the 5000.

ONCE IT IS MADE, he has 15 days to file form 2...
and in 10 days after that... he must file form 1...

and then file another form each quarter.



Or am I wrong?

This has nothing to do with running for office MEMAT.

Make me poor!

[kathy88]

I owe $25 bucks for a match from last week. Been at a huge par-tay all weekend and I'm dead ass tired. I'll take care of that in the a.m. and may just throw in some more for this little gem of an offer. And you ARE the fucking man, Cowlesy. I am truly too lazy to go get my wallet out of my car. LOL. Night all.

[Paulitical Correctness]

BUMP.

Look what your money buys, folks...


Day 1 Statue of Liberty to Trenton

Barely made it and am feeling the miles deep in my bones. It’ll take a week or so to work up a rhythm. Till then the posts may be a bit short and staccato. Am uploading vids as we speak, and due to techical issues I may not get any pics up till tomorrow.

The day was very tough, but went well. Found some bugs I’ll need to sort out, and am bummed the best take at the SoL seems to not have made it. Ah well, ya puts in yer quarters and takes yer chances. I have a back up, but does not have the passion the later one did. Maybe it’ll be in my phone… I’ll look as I get other issues sorted

The big news is that the Newark Sheriffs Dept asked me if I want a job, “because they need more people around here discussing these kind of issues”. In fact, I had great responses from all three offices that were staffed on this holiday weekend. One vid I am uploading has “before and after” clips from the inaugural Sheriff canvass. I am just starting to develop my pitch and did not even broach the subject of getting the officers on cam. Almost didn’t get a set to the Union County Office, as I was prowling around looking for an open door (I had been directed by a city cop) I ran into one desk-jockey who wouldn’t even get out of the chair to look at what I had. Didn’t seem like a bad cop, but not a good one either. After realizing he was not going to lift a finger, I moved on, circled the building and found nothing, was about to give up and decided to go around back (where I had found the helpful city cop earlier. Hoping he was still there, I turned the corner to find he had been joined by… a sheriff. This guy was much more pleasant, and after hearing my spiel, said he would personally put the materials on The Sheriff’s Desk. I was stoked that persistence, and dogged determination paid off.

What made today extra tough was pedaling through an unknown metro-area. Metro areas are nasty places for a long distance ride. I was suprised we got no flats, lots of glass, etc.. to avoid. Navigating in cities is tough as well. Very easy to miss a turn (especially when there are no streets signs) and get into a bad place . We muddled trough it, but one wrong turn put us where few bikes tread, (an elevated expressway) we got off the next exit, but added three miles and it adds up quick. Then there was the parade detour which added a couple more miles to a growing day.

I asked two cops on the street, separately, for directions, both got handouts One helped to refine my speech with. He was in his car talking to a girl on the street, when I rolled up and politely interrupted for directions, after answering I mentioned what I was doing and handed him some stuff. Then said, “I took an oath to defend the Constitution, not to defend Corporations, Bankers, and Corrupt Politicians. He liked that and I swear I saw that part of his memory light up behind his eyes. “Ya know, you’re right” he said.

The best was Newark though. The security gal minimally informed and called the Sargent down to take the materials. He came down with a HUGE man and I proceed to pitch. “I’m pedaling that bike out there from the Statue of Liberty to Alcatraz, because that is where I see our country headed, and we all NEED to do something about it.

I am working on the pitch to slam fascism. What I said today is variations of, “One definition of Fascism is the marriage of corporations and Government. The word scares some people, but if we don’t do something about it, history may just treat us more unfairly than it has the Germans.

Lots more on the mind, but I need to sleep and the second vid just started to load, Will post picds and vids tomorrow, (G-willing)
Till then, much aloha…

[itshappening]

wow, amazing :)

I dont think we will make the target so quick... but I think we'll make it eventually. :cool:

Where's the secret billionaire? :D

[Paulitical Correctness]

Again, look what your money buys...


By this time most of the locals had heard about, “some guy on a bike pulling a trailer over the Timmonds” so had quite an easy time of getting them to listen why. I slowly made my way to this nice $40 motel seeding a message of liberty all along the way. I stopped at an Ice Cream Stand and got a cone to celebrate. A man walked up and asked about my bike, I gave him my spiel and the next thing I knew I had a dinner of home cooked, farm raised, (and delicious) chicken cassarole and fresh salad. I was famished, and it was heavenly. We talked as I ate. The wife had liked Huckabee, and Paul, but “didn’t want to waste her vote.” We had a nice talk about voting your conscience and how the whole “waste your vote” thing is a farce. Voting for the lessor of two evils, is still evil…

:):):)

[ClayTrainor]

Where's the secret billionaire? :D

It's not me, but i threw down another $17.76 for Michael tonight, hopefully some others will join me :)

[kathy88]

COME ON GANG. Pay day maybe? 1700 more and the big C has to cough up a G note.

I'm going to try to do more later this afternoon. Have to check the budget first.

Exactly. A lot of time you don't get much bang-for-your-buck, but you can be assured with Michael that every buck will be spent on the promotion of our cause.

Cowsley, would you consider extending your offer? After all, Michael's gonna be on the road for two months and $6K was his original goal. Would give us more time to bump him up to $5K, then you come in and top it off :) :)

[qh4dotcom]

Bump

[FSP-Rebel]

Wow, Cowlesy. You have deep pockets.

[DirtMcGirt]

Who knows --- was disappointed we couldn't spread the message to raise a few G's, and that grand has gone into my moving truck expenses.

[DirtMcGirt]

I know I thought we would hit around 4500... where you moving to?

[Cowlesy]
