Awesome - I am giving $500 and my g/f is giving $250 -- so $750 from this house Nov 5!!!

Great to hear you are giving more than the $100 too!!!

Screw $100 each on a single day. We need it to be $1,000 each.

So we are on track to raise 800k in a single day right now if every person that has pledged keeps their word.

Why not be a little less selfish guys, and change that 800k in a single day to 8 MILLION in a single day? That would be more than double the current record-holder Barack Obama's most raised in a single day!

It would give Ron Paul the biggest MSM rongasm you've ever seen! His name would be everywhere! It would increase his chances at winning more than ten-fold!


Isn't that worth it... for FREEDOM?

You forgot that most people can legally donate less than $1000 by this point, and most can't financially, either.

You can donate more than $2,300.

You can donate $2,300 once for the primaries (current), and $2,300 for the general election.

If RP doesn't win the nomination, there will be no general election for him, and he can't use the money for it, so your money gets refunded to you.

All more the reason to donate every single penny you can!

If your $2,300 works and RP wins, he is president! If it fails, you're safe, and get your $2,300 back!

No. The campaign doesn't accept donations over $2,300 for now. It would just be more work for them to refund it (and they do refund).

I swear you're a troll, sometimes. Especially given your username.

If the campaign really does not accept it and it gets returned to you, you lose nothing.

Please stop calling people selfish. I'm sure everyone is giving what they're able to give, some have given perhaps more than they're able. Trying to lay guilt trips on people is not the way to go. Strategizing and coming up with ways to raise money, and more importantly - primary votes is one thing - pressuring and guilt is quite another. People do tend to give more for positive reasons - to do what they can to support the message and try to get him elected - and not from negative pressure. Calling someone selfish is more likely to get a "screw you" or resentment than anything else.

And no, people should not try to give more than $2300! Sigh.

It's not what YOU have to lose... it's that it takes time for the campaign to process, including reporting to the FEC that it was returned. Waste of campaign resources.

Even if this drive raises $1 million in a day, it'll be great. But, at the rate people are signing up, if they had set the date 4-6 weeks later, they really could've gotten to 100,000 people.

I think we stand a good chance at hitting $3M that day. We're already on path to get $2.5M and that's at only $100/signup. I've heard several people say they are going to donate more. If my best customer pays me all he owes me this week, I likely will as well.

You can't make that connection?

Oprah is black, Obama is black. Oprah's previous views on politics are quite different than the platform Obama is running on. I would have thought for sure Oprah would have been a Hillary woman.

But for Oprah, skin color is thicker than water.

It's getting ridiculous. First we have black people getting free scholarships around the country just because of their skin color, now we have black presidential candidates getting elected just because of their skin color.

Just purely ridiculous.

I'm not so much disgusted that they were removed (even though I fully approve of them) but that a bunch of thugs and bullies intimidated those in charge of the project until they complied. To be blunt, I want to vomit.

I'm ashamed of the bullies and ashamed of those in charge of this project that allowed a bunch of thugs to dictate their decision making.

All of a sudden you're concerned about hyperbole?

The thing has been watered down. I can see adding other references, but to take out the videos that got people excited about this in the first place will only slow fundraising momentum.

Do the math... With the V references, the conversion arate was upwards of 25%. It's slowed down to 11%, and today we actually have LOST subscribers.

It was a bad decision to censor the V videos.

I guess you did not see the people screaming for all references to the Nov 5th campaign to be BURIED on Digg!

Quite frankly, when people are willing to do try and sabotage another project that is in support of Ron Paul they are nothing but jack booted thugs.

I don't so much mind that the "V" references were removed (even though I LOVED the references because the movie was great) but because certain individuals BULLIED those in charge of the project.

For goodness sakes, they were disrupting this forum with dozens of threads, demanding that the Nov 5th stories on Digg be BURIED (THE NEOCONS ALREADY DO ENOUGH RON PAUL DIGG BURYING ALREADY), and ranted and raved.

Basically, I'm worried about the NEXT interesting and unique project that springs up!

Will a bunch of you scream and yell if someone starts a project with the theme of drug legalization for example? Will you demand it be buried?

I find it disgusting how part of the community attacked and tried to destroy a project in SUPPORT of Ron Paul.

I want to vomit and gag and vomit some more at the actions of these thugs and the fact those in charge of the project gave in.

I don't see much difference between them and the people who are now ranting and raving over multiple threads about how everyone should abandon the project because the creator decided to compromise on the V videos in order to bring a little peace and stability to the movement.

Ultimately, both groups are being immature.

Ok. A big part of your objection to those opposing the whole 'V' connotation, was that they were sabotaging a fundraising effort that would benefit Ron Paul. Don't you see that you're doing pretty much the same thing?

We need to come together on this and just support Ron Paul. The infighting is somewhat inevitable in a group as diverse as ours, but it's discouraging nonetheless. Please consider the big picture. Do your actions help Ron Paul? Let the answer to that question guide your actions. For Ron Paul's sake.

We cannot sit by and let a project be MANIPULATED by those that were OPENLY CALLING for everyone to SABOTAGE IT by BURYING Digg articles!

It's obvious those in charge of this Nov. 5th campaign were totally and unfairly pressured into eliminating the "V" references.

If we do nothing now just think what will happen NEXT TIME someone starts a project that a certain small group of people don't like?!

They will think to themselves, "Hey, guys... Those folks got the Nov. 5th project to remove references to "V" by making a big fuss! We can do the same thing! We can scream, yell, and attack this new project until they submit to OUR authority over THEIR project! Lets start a thread telling them we will be BURYING their project unless they submit!"

I'm sure if you e-mail the site owner he'll take your name off the list. It's unfortunate if you decide to do so, and even more so if you convince more people to follow your lead.

I've been pretty neutral on the whole "To 'V' or not to 'V'" question ;) . But as I watched the number of subscribers increase, I realized that this was going to be a huge boon to Ron's campaign. I exhort you: please consider what's best for Ron's campaign, and not what's best for you.

I am supporting two things:

2) Not allowing a PRECEDENT to be started where people think they can FORCE those in charge of project to change it if they simply threaten to SABOTAGE IT!
