Ok guys,
There has not really been an awesome project here in a while, so I thought I would throw this idea out.
Overview:
In order to have a solid base from which to publicize Ron Paul and Liberty in years to come (hopefully 2012), landowners that support Ron Paul come together to establish a massive, free, billboard campaign.
What Needs To Be Done (in no specific order)
-A professional website, explaining the goals, mobilizing volunteers, and allowing landowners to sign-up needs to be made.
-A list of people who own land, preferably with land bordering high-traffic areas such as highways and major roads, needs to be compiled. These people agree to allow the grassroots to construct billboards on their property.
-A list of people that are good at construction needs to be compiled, as well as a list of people that are willing to help with construction, and other random chores.
-A chip-in needs to be set-up after the landowners and volunteers are organized. This would be in order to purchase construction materials needed to make the billboards, such as concrete, wood, metal framing, etc. These funds could also possibly be used to help travel expenses of the main builders.
Essentially, each billboard on each property would be tailored specifically to that property. If we have two properties available, one being situated on a massive interstate, and the second located along a smaller highway, more funds would be directed towards the first, and better located property.
Another interesting idea is renting out these billboards in downtime, giving the landowner a percentage of revenue, and using that money to fund further projects, or to donate to other worthy causes.
The first goal could be something like a very doable 5 billboards by December, or something like that.
Well, what do yall think? Add suggestions, comments, and whatever you think!
