Here are some pictures of a few of our past newspaper ads. They include Tuesday's ad in the Union-Leader & Concord Monitor, Wednesday's ad in the Union-Leader & Valley News, and yesterday's ad in the Nashua Telegraph, Concord Monitor, & Union-Leader. Now we're trying to do follow-up ads with a slightly different tone.

What is the legality of putting someone else's phone number in an ad?

[Man from La Mancha]

Nice, keep up the good work.

[Matt]

Looks good, one suggestion though. Would it be possible to incorporate his current campaign portrait somewhere? It seems kind of odd to only have pictures from 30+ years ago. If you put it next to the picture of him in uniform in the same size I think it would be a nice contrast. Just an idea, I'm not criticizing and I think it's awesome what you guys are doing.

I dont want to ruin what your doing, I think its great, but arnt there better ways to spread the message instead of newspaper ads? think about it, you can get around 100,000 slim jims for $2,000. Just my thought

[Ron Paul Fan]

The link says that the newspaper has a readership of over 250,000 so this is a pretty effective way to spread the message! Great job on all of the hard work guys! I appreciate it at least.

O well if its that much, then thats great. Hopefully people are paying attention to it.

Of course they'll pay attention to it! It's in the newspaper! The ad is big and it's beautiful. It's a work of art. You've got a Reagan quote on there with military personell and an immediate withdrawal from Iraq! They'll see it and they'll love it!

Yes. Slim Jims are great. However, they require legs to pass them out. So, if you or anyone else is close enough to go to New Hampshire and go door-to-door passing out Slim Jims, please, by all means, do it! In fact, if you are willing to do so, I for one, would be quite happy to contribute money towards campaign materials.

In the meantime, let's run this ad.

[LibertyEagle]

Ron Paul is hardly showing up in the New Hampshire polls.

Don't you folks think we should run this Ad in next Sunday's Union-Leader?

If so, please donate.

I am not easily impressed. That first ad is one of the best ads I have ever seen given the circumstances. We need to be using that one nationally. We need to spread the word. This one will draw in Christian republicans like nothing else.

[skiingff]

Yes, but we also need to counter the arguments that Ron Paul is "weak on defense" and "anti-troop."

99% of people don't know these military facts about Ron Paul. They should.

[Adamsa]

If there is any place Ron will do well in, it has to be NH, I'd just ignore the polls and keep campaigning.

[BillyDkid]

I chipped in $25.00. So who is doing that gorgeous color ad and when will that be in the papers? Also, what happened with the Sunday paper inserts project. Is that still on? I donated towards that too. I was disappointed to see that one pledge drive (what was it - 2500 people for $32.00) failed and was not even close. I pledged in the one other drive for a million people for a hundred dollars (I think that is what it is). We need another pledge drive for a more reasonable amount - Say 500 people committing to donate $50.00 or something like that.

[LibertyEagle]

Yes, I agree. But, they will not vote for him if they do not know about him or his stances.

I certainly hope that everyone that is even close to New Hampshire will travel there and join the folks there who are doing their best to get the word out.

For those of us who are not close, this Ad is one thing we can do to help out. This Ad will be on page A-3 of the largest newspaper in New Hampshire. Don't you think we should run it? I do.

Max is running the full page color Ad. He will show us the Ad again for a final approval, before it is placed. I would expect that he would do so within the next week.

re: the Sunday paper inserts, I'm not sure which one you're talking about. There is one that USAFCaptain is working on for Florida. Is that what you're talking about? If so, he is checking on some prices at last check. As soon as he gets a couple things nailed down on that, this Ad will be highlighted a lot more.

[LibertyEagle]

$50 chipped in. :)

[saahmed]

Doesn't that full page ad kind of give the impression that Paul is a big supporter of the war? I think there should be a line in there about opposition to the war. I mean any supporters it gains by making it seem likes hes in favor of military spending and the war are going to be lost once they look into him more and realize he is for the opposite. It would be important to show that despite his opposition to the war and increased military spending, he still gets all these military donations and praises.

I think it shows he understands which wars are worth fighting.

I agree! It must say he's against the war!

[Tidewise]

What is the legality of putting someone else's phone number in an ad?
This is the legality:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Don't ever forget it! The campaign laws are unconstitutional. Just ask Scalia and Thomas!

[skiingff]

I agree! It must say he's against the war!

Fair point. Will make this change and re-post when the revised ad is available.

[work2win]

I agree as well. It needs to show his war position, explaining that he doesn't think this is a smart or just use of our military.

[Suzu]

The phone number is wrong, it is 877 not 800.

[skiingff]

The phone number is wrong, it is 877 not 800.

Yes that will be fixed (even the 877 # is wrong). We tried calling it.

[Suzu]

Maybe it's 888. I forgot. But it's not 800 I know that much!

[Karrl]

I too think it is probably a good idea to highlight that he is against the war. But then I wonder what was the campaigns' reasoning for not including anything about the war in Iraq, or on foreign policy in the radio ad just released? I'm baffled by that.

[Jojo]

Fair point. Will make this change and re-post when the revised ad is available.

By the way, thank you guys for doing these ads! They're great!

You have to distribute the slim jims for them to do any good.

You can't communicate everything in a single radio ad. They'll likely run other ads with different themes.

22% there!

This ad is especially significant now that Ron Paul is, ONCE AGAIN, king of military fundraising.

http://www.operationnh.com/newspaperad2.jpg

After some minor tweaks (the phone # and adding he voted AGAINST the war in Iraq), the ad will be a great way to spread the word about the military supporting Ron Paul.

Now there is an ad that should be run in the Union leader. It is will be much more effective than the founding fathers one. Especially with since it has the Regan quote and shows the military support.

[LibertyEagle]

Ok, then please DONATE!!! :)

[Ridiculous]

Is the ad above the actual ad that will be run? I want to see the final ad with a promise that it won't be changed before I donate.

What is the status on the Founders one, is it scheduled to run?

This Ad is being run by Skiingff. He has a history of doing what he says. Look at the first part of this thread and take a look at the ads run thus far.

Max is doing the Founders' Ad. Yes, I assume it is going to be run. That is why people donated to it.

[ItsTime]

He has run many ads here in New Hampshire. I have seen them personally. He has never changed the ads he has asked money for.

Thank you for your hard work!

But newspaper ads have an air of credibility about them. This effort is wonderful and we need to support it with $$$$. We also need to see about doing this in our hometown newspapers.

This is perfect for "republican" publications. I will say that it alienates the liberals who support Paul a bit since it's all Reagan this , Republican that ... and Ron does have a lot of "liberal" / "democrat" converts behind him... and you should aim to get more with the advertising.

We should really aim to usurp clinton/obama's voter base, since they will not end the war nor change monetary policy etc.

Good idea maybe we could run something about the democrats wanting to stay in Iraq beyond 2013. Stress Ron Paul as the only real alternative to the republicans that started this war and the democrats that enable them.

[LibertyEagle]

Guys, we ran a different ad a week ago, several times and in several newspapers in New Hampshire. It highlighted the fact that Paul wanted us out of Iraq.

The ad that we are trying to run right now if for another purpose. It highlights his military experience, his support of the military/veterans and their support of him. It is often said that Paul is not "for the troops" and also that he isn't a true Republican. This Ad aims to lie those claims to rest.

I personally think it is a good ad and think we should support it.
