I got to thinking about money bombs. They are very inefficient and hard to organize. A lot of effort is lost and many that would support fail to learn enough, and many good candidates cannot get the money they need.
What if we could develop some type of financial donation support group that could help true liberty candidates. Here is my idea.
Each week, every 2 weeks, or every month the website would have an online debate about a certain liberty candidate. Then at the end of the week they would vote for the one to support. The one that received the most votes would get donations from the group. Each candidate would be required to meet a set of criteria developed and agreed by the group so that only true liberty candidates could get the support. After a candidate received the support, they would not be elidgible for a given amount of time. The minimum amount required would be low (say $10 dollars) but group members could give as much as they wanted. The group would all have direct email links to inform members of upcoming donation times. Imagine if the group could get about 5-10,000 members (not really that hard of a goal considering that there are over 300,000 Ron Paul mail list members. If each gave $10 dollars that would be $50,000 or 100,000 dollars respectively. Most candidates (not the schiff or Rand) types would greatly benefit from a 100,000 dollar injection. The greatest problem I see to the liberty movement for elections is not a lack of candidates, but lack of funding.
what do yall think?
