Here's the script I've developed for talking to someone about Ron Paul QUICKLY.
Maybe you'll find something useful in it.
It sticks to the three big points: The war, taxes, and rights.
Yeah, I know, simple language, but it seems to get people really interested.
I live in a blue area, so the thing about the war is simpler for me.
(As the insurance ads say, "Sorry, Red Staters!")

[talk fast throughout]
I'd like to give you my political card, is that okay? [give Liberty Card]
[smile] I'm asking you to vote for this guy Ron Paul.
[serious, eyebrows up] He's a Republican against the war!
[eyes wide, serious] Did you know Hillary wants to keep the war going?
Ron Paul wants to end the war fast.
[At this point the person always says, "I never heard of him!"]
They don't talk about him because he wants to help Americans FIRST!
You know, he's really, really smart with money.
[tap head] This guy KNOWS how to manage money.
He is SO smart!
[smile] We're going to have less taxes with him!
[serious] And he doesn't believe in spying on Americans.
[confident frown] You know, the way they're doing nowdays.
[smile, eyebrows up] He's a good man, a really good man.
[serious, hand over heart] Very honest, VERY honest!
Not like those other guys, you know. [smile and wink]
Ron Paul is for real, he's the real thing.
This card tells you more about him.
Please vote in the Republican primary.
Okay, bye!

Good stuff. I'd like to hear others' similar scripts. I'm horrible at it, so I could use more examples.

"Who you gonna call?....Ron Paul!" At the top of your lungs.

Kidding....that is getting on my nerves. We need to talk to people, not yell at them anymore. Yelling is okay at a rally, not when your trying to get people to come on over and talk, it's intimidating.

I need a better script as well...looking forward to more posts here.

Educate yourself about every aspect of what he says

I get people talking and then ask them what their pet issue is. Then I listen...and continue to listen... and when I'm ready to speak I give them 30 more seconds.

Then I tell them Ron's.

And then I listen.

You want to engage people? Don't talk... Listen and Respond.

I talk to people all day about him while on the streets at work.

but I always end it with, "you know I could talk all day about him and not do him justice. You REALLY have to just go to the website on my card and watch his videos. I have them all lined up for you"

then I hand them this

I'd probably laugh if someone came up to me and started a spiel like that. Or else I'd just roll my eyes and walk away.

The wink would really kill it. To me, winking is creepy at worst and corny at best.

But then again, I'm a dick. Haha. I usually just hand them a card and don't say much. Usually a smile or a nod. Sometimes a "Hey" or "here ya go" as I hand it to them. If they ask, I answer. Otherwise, the card speaks for itself.
