Step 8 was just added to www.RonPaulsRebels.com

When watching the debate tonight (or any news where Dr. Paul should be mentioned but isn't (or where he's misrepresented), take special notice of the advertisers who advertis with that media.

Then, visit www.RonPaulsRebels.com and leave a comment under 'Step 8' of who specifically it was (media, channel, call letters, reporters... AND ALSO LIST THE ADVERTISERS who pay them big money.

Listing the advertisers is vital in being able to 'take actions' that get results.

In addition to Fox News itself, here are some of the sponsors of the debate who we can actively boycott. First by not frequenting these establishments/products and secondly by sending them a form letter telling them so.

Comcast
PlanAlaska.com
Red Lobster
Men's Warehouse (tmw.com)
Ford (Swap Your Ride)
Meineke
H3 (Hummer)
Vehix.com
Progressive.com

Then there are the drug companies.

Cialis
Levitra
Plavix

Do what you can to NOT support thes companies. If we get enough rebels together and let them know our intentions, then we can start to make a difference with the media. (Contact information will be provide eventually... your assistance in getting this information would greatly help. Thank you!)

p.s. I know that these aren't 'media' but all the same, showing them that we won't support them is vital in creating a better community.

bump. We need to really hit them hard.

Granted, I've never given any of those companies my business because they suck to begin with.

Do something productive to help Dr. Paul--bashing or making enemies of the media is the stupidest thing you could do. :mad:

There are some wacky Paul supporters. Fox News or any of the above sponsors could care less if you 'boycott' them. Geezus. Donate and go tell someone about Ron Paul why waste your time and energy being hateful.

I am doing many things productive including the boycott.
And 'NO', a boycott isn't stupid
And 'NO', I'm not making them my enemy... they did that all by themselves!:mad::mad:

Why are you so scared of the media?

I'm starting to actually get depressed about the campaign with all of the people here posting about other candidates, Ron's hair and attacking the media.

If these are the people supporting Paul, the grassroots is a lot of hot air, and not enough boots on the ground.

It's truly frustrating.

I agree, I enjoy following the campaign but to have to be associated with a lot of the lunatics that support Paul is a tough pill to swallow. As I've said before these are the very people that will keep Paul from winning. I can just see some 'mainstream' Republican finding this site and not being able to get away fast enough and forget about ever thinking of supporting Ron Paul.

It's frustrating to me as well. It's like we're saying: "Hey, let's focus on everything that's NOT crucial to advancing the campaign."

With that said, there is a lot of authentic support of there. I've seen it, we had 1,600 people show up for a rally in Nashville and we promoted it for less than two weeks. We just need get focused so that we're all pulling in the same direction and not distracted from the goal.

By far the biggest problem we face is getting Dr. Paul's name and message out to the overwhelming majority of people who don't know of him at all or what we stand for but would join the rEVOLution in droves once they do.

Instead or solving that problem, we have a bunch of people here who either have no political or marketing experience--or are working for another campaign--urging idiotic attacks on the ones we need the most.
