I put out a call to Ron Paul supporters to call in to the Daily Source Code phone line (Adam Curry's podcast) and we had over 50 people call in. This is huge! He didn't have any other supporters call in. Adam in his latest podcast #671 put whole 25 mins in about Ron Paul and how his views are perfectly aligned with Ron Paul. He said that he will mobilize and raise a "SHIT TON" of cash for Ron Paul if:

HE CAN TALK TO RON PAUL ON HIS SHOW!!! He wants to ask him some questions and have an exclusive interview with Ron Paul.

This would be ENORMOUS. Adam Curry and the company he has are huge. His influence world wide is large. He has the ear of a TON of big corporations and when he says he can raise a "SHIT TON" of money, he isn't kidding.

We really need someone at the campaign to make this interview happen. Maybe he can become a semi-regular on his show if Adam wants that. I know that he does Alex Jones show about once a month or so. He could easily do that for Adam.

Please, make this important. It will be the surge we need!

When we were working with HQ from here in Nashville to set up the interviews before the rally last weekend, HQ told us that they had to receive an invitation from the show who wanted to do the interview. Somebody needs to get the word to this talk-show host that he needs to call the campaign HQ and talk to Jesse Benton.

I have contacted campaign on numerous occasions. They're swamped with invitations. Just like this guy wants Paul for an interview, so does everyone else. I really wish Paul's campaign took advantage of this opportunity, but I am afraid Rand Paul or Rob Paul is the closest he'll get.

which is really sad, assuming that this personality is as huge as the TS claims it is.

send a private message on this forum to Bradley in DC - if he hasn't seen this already in the thread that would get to him, I believe he has contacts at HQ. and if this Adam Curry is as big as y'all say he is, surely the campaign will part the waters to get Ron on.

I'm not exactly sure, but when he was saying that he wanted to get him a "Shit Load" of money he was talking about being competitive with Hillary and Baracks 50-100 Million. If you think about it, it's not that hard. He can mobilize about half of his supporters to donate. That would be about 500,000 people. If they all gave $100 that would be 50 Million.

The key to Adam Curry is that when he wants something to happen, it does. If he wants to raise 50 Million it will happen. He has that kind of influence. His show the Daily Source Code was in syndication with Serius Satellite for a long time.

Adam Curry is huge into social networking type stuff. He is big into being able to track things almost instantaneously and Ron Paul's campaign with their live money track on his website is right up Adam's alley.

Another thing that people who know of Adam Curry don't know is that he is a helluva business man. He started the phenomenon of podcasting and is directly taking on the major record labels with his own company that publishes podcasts for podcasters as well as allows music artists to have their music online and available for free for podcasters under the royalty free creative commons license. He is doing extremely well for himself and flys all over the world all the time for meetings with big companies and such.

Exactly. I am sure once Adam gets the message of him needing to contact the HQ to get the interview. I would hope we got him a number where he only has to call once to ask and let it go from there.

xcalybur
10-12-2007, 03:20 PM
Yes it is audio only. He company does audio as well as video, but his show is audio only. For a long time before he was an MTV VJ he was a Radio DJ and he believes in the purity of audio. When you hear him talking you will hear the exceptional sound quality. He prides himself in that. He also lives near London, UK and does his podcast from his house most of the time. When he is in other countries he will bring a portable setup and record on the road. His is a mix of Talk and music and usually on Friday's he'll do Fubar Friday and do about 90% music. This Friday he decided to do a lot of talking especially about Ron Paul.

BTW, two of my recordings got on his show. I'm the idiot that states this is my second shot at this and the first one was crappy because I was nervous. I didn't think he would play that part and near the very end I am Chris Stone from Houston, TX. The last one was my first attempt. Hearing it on the podcast though, I don't think it was as bad as I thought.

He said maybe he would endorse him anyway, even without an interview.

Emailing the campaign is not the correct way to go about this. It just gums up the works at HQ. It's already been made clear in this thread that the campaign only responds to the INTERVIEWERS for media appearances.

We need a website like digg but for action items that we can vote on to allow constructive input to HQ. They could use it as radar for important contacts/events the internet campaign finds.

Only one person in HQ would really have to monitor it and it would fuel the whole addictive transparency thing we got going on with the donation counter.

I'll definitely be looking forward to it! I'm off to e-mail the Ron Paul campaign to encourage them to accept the invitation (once Adam makes the request, of course!).

Does he want a phone interview or a review done in person?

he lives in UK. I am listening to his podcast today which has clips of Ron Paul and discussion today starts about 50 mins in. He's saying he got 50 callers endorsing Ron Paul and he'll consider endorsing him

"We can get this guy elected" Adam Curry "get him on the phone for me and I will be a loyal supporter forever"

20 minutes of coverage 50-70 mins in and closes with 5 minutes of endorsements from callers

That was a great piece, and Ron Paul IS Pro Life, there's no reason to be ashamed of that. I think it was very favorable and shows we are all right in saying Ron Paul can do it as long as we all press on!

Don't email the campaign. They get 15,000 emails a day. They will never see your email. If you want help, ask for a specific person and leave them a message, but it is unlikely that the campaign will respond to a request for an interview with this guy unless someone tells them that this is a phone interview only and explains who this guy is and why it is important.

Do not get stopped with the phone answers. They ignore you completely! Get them to pass you on up to someone else. Don't stop calling. Do what you can to get the person on the phone. Tell them you are calling from the interviewers office and you need to speak to someone. Only one person do this however. The guy who started this thread should be the one.

The campaign is overwhelmed right now and can't tell which interviews are more important than others. You must explain to them why this one is important - it is over the phone - the guy has a large audience - he has experience in fundraising and has done so in the past -the interview shouldn't take too long - it could result in tons of other celeb endorsements because of his contacts, etc. Make it clear to them why this is important or it will get buried.

Do not stop until you actually speak to the person who is handling requests for interviews. No messages. They are ineffective, time consuming and won't help you one bit.

"We have reached out to [Adam Curry] and are waiting for a reply."

Hopefully this will work out!

I have been sending out the link of the Friday podcast to people to download and fast forward to 47 mins for the 20 mins of Ron Paul discussion. But it takes a while to download. I was wondering if someone could edit the file so we could e-mail it as an attachment. I don't know how to do it. But it would help a lot. Any ideas?

wow, just listened to adam curry in the link someone provided which was
edited to the dr. paul part..........many thanks to whoever, i forget! it was great!

ADAM CURRY IS HOOKED AND THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN!

i think calling HQ today will help......i'm going to call.
i know that when you call hq lots of times the people who don't have any emails
listed on the page are there at the office.
today would be excellent too cuz there is nothing scheduled for dr. paul for a few days.

http://www.ronpaul2008.com/contact

jonathan bydlak, jesse benton, lew moore and kent snyder are the ones we need to reach i think - jeff frazee too. he's down there.

hey, how about rachel mills in dc now?

HQ said in their update that i got that they NEED to raise the 12 million by December 31.......it's not some off the wall figure........that's what we need to compete. here's the message:


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
October 10, 2007

Around the beginning of August, our campaign set a fundraising goal for the third quarter. We decided that we had to raise $5,000,000 by September 30th. At the time, we weren't sure we could meet that goal.

But meet it we did, thanks to you. And during the last week, Ron Paul received more press than he did during the previous nine months of our campaign.

Now it's the start of the final quarter of the primary season. We've set a goal again, and this time, we're letting everyone track our progress throughout the quarter - the first campaign in history to disclose immediately every cent that is raised.

Our fundraising target for the 4th quarter is $12,000,000.

Without a doubt, this won't be easy. But this goal is not optional.

Other campaigns spend frivolously. Some even pour millions of dollars of their own money into their campaigns. We do not have either of these luxuries.

This is a goal that we must meet if Ron Paul is to win the Republican nomination for President.

We all need to redouble our efforts. Please get us off to a great start this month by making your most generous donation now: https://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate

Then tell your friends, family - even people you don't know - about Ron Paul and our message of freedom. And don't forget to look for your name and watch Lady Liberty's torch light up after you make your donation: http://www.ronpaul2008.com

We only have one chance.

Jonathan Bydlak
Fundraising Director
Ron Paul 2008

if this guy adam curry ( i never heard of him until friday nite) can bring in millions as
has been written here in the forums then WE NEED HIM NOW

HUGE Update:

Adam Curry posted a new show today: DSC 672 (http://www.podshow.com/shows/?mode=detail&episode_id=83310). In the show he gushes over Ron Paul again and plays a voice mail left by Rassmusen from the campaign stating that Ron Paul would love to do his show and that he just needs to call him to set it up. He also talks about Aaron Russo on his show and Freedom to Fascism. He stated that he WILL support Ron Paul and he will do fund raising for him.

More to come.
