I say we have it right around CPAC so we can deliver a major 1-2 punch to the establishment by breaking another fundraising record then winning the CPAC straw poll. What do you guys think?

The first moneybomb will be soon after Ron Paul announces. Sign up at http://runronpaul.com

Yeah I know but I am thinking we should start to think about a specific date sometime around late January/early February. Maybe the weekend before CPAC ? I like the idea of having it close to CPAC. Like a CPAC Money bomb or something.

Ya, we should probably do a poll for each month...February, March and April...
April 15 would be ideal if he waits that long

Fundraisers for Ron Paul for CPAC is a very logical thing to do, it would certainly send a message. (Also props to the Atlas Shrugged moneybomb. =D) We won CPAC 2010 and if we win CPAC 2011 it would really send a clear message that Ron Paul is a major contender, plus if he breaks another record at the same time then the media would not only be forced to report that but they would also most likly tie in his CPAC victory which they may not mention otherwise.

Yeah having a Money bomb along with CPAC makes perfect sense. The media will have a very hard time ignoring a huge money bomb and straw poll victory. Just my thoughts.

I always liked the date of 1/11/11 its just a catchy date. Might be a bit too early though which sucks.

I'll put up a poll on theronpaulteaparty.com month by month...
What are some significant dates in January?
I have 1/11/11 and Jan 17 (Martin Luther King Jr Day)...so far

the moneybomb should not be the same day or too near to the day of cpac, what we want to do is create momentum, think of it like ripples in a pond, we want to drop our "bombs" in the pond to make our ripples feed off each other so they cover the whole pond and are self sustaining

Tea Party Day.
Send a message that Ron is the intellectual father of the Tea Party.

That would require Ron Paul announcing and setting up his campaign website within the next 2 days...

I agree with some previous posters, we don't want it too close to CPAC. If we have like, say, the week before, that builds momentum up to CPAC and actually helps get his name out and can bring in additional voters, and it gives the media two different stories to mention. Whereas if they occured right after eachother, the media could briefly mention them together in one story.
We want his name in the media for as long as possible. So if we break a 1-day donation record, then a week later win CPAC, Ron will be off to a tremendous start.
By the way, when is CPAC again?

I still need some more dates for January...I have a poll set up but there are only 2 significant dates in January.
I'll do a monthly poll as the month goes on without an announcement.

I say we hold the moneybomb no sooner than a couple weeks after CPAC

I think it should either be a week before or a week after CPAC. Either way I just hope we win CPAC and break some new fundraising records.I Dont think we should have a money bomb in January,its too soon and we need time to organize and get the word out for a BIG Money Bomb. We need the first one to be big to set the tone for the rest of the campaign.

If we can't win CPAC we might as well pack it in. In other words get your ass, your families asses, your friends asses, and your dog's ass there.

Around CPAC isn't a terrible time but i would say a week before the release of Liberty Defined. The release date is April 19.

The first money bomb should be the day after Dr. Paul announces. This would be the most effective way to wow the media and make sure they don't ignore him.

the first moneybomb should be after RP announces, maybe a month or 2 after, so we can spread the word and make it big... we dont know when he will announce
basically hold fire until he announces.
I reckon tax day is a good one to go for IF he has announced

As a software engineer and IT guy...I wouldn't wish this on anyone...
well, I'd wish the money part on myself...but the amount of crashes occurring the first day of going live would be horrible...

Maybe we should just let the Ron Paul campaign decide when it is. lol
