I actually think it should just be one word...and not Revolution, we need to step in front, not seem like a uprising anymore....

Like Obama just Had "Change" after a while, and i'm sure he had the best marketing people around, we should start with something and end up with just "FREEDOM"

"Ron Paul - Truth and Freedom" with spin off signs of just "TRUTH" and just "FREEDOM" with a logo of course....copy what works.

Love it, but I think anything using a computer reference will come across as "RP - Rising out of our moms basements" to the general public because of MSM.

I'm more wary of copying the style of someone who has failed. Besides, a reboot isn't a computer nerd solution--it's what us ignoramuses do just before we give up and find someone who has a clue.

Maybe senior citizens will ask their kids what that means. Could be good. 'Means grandmom and grandpop were right all along, that's what it means.'

I agree with that too...I like Retake as well thinking that way, as if "someone else other than the people now have our country"...

Slogans themed around "restoring" freedom and liberty assumes we have experienced greater freedom at some time in our past. When was the greatest era of freedom in the USA? 1790's? Not if you were black. 1880's? Any time in the last 100 years? The Marxist income tax is almost 100 years old, 100 years of tax slavery.
The last 50 years has been an accelerating slide towards socialism/corporatism and less freedom. Do we want to return to the 1950's in terms of freedom?

I suggest slogans should reflect a new era of freedom. Libertarianism is a relatively new political/economic ideology that many people still know nothing about. Libertarianism is definitely influencing the Tea Party revolution, but it shouldn't be geared towards the past, it should be looking to the future and lessons learned (if that is even possible for some people).
Some of these are kind of clunky, but just trying to throw some ideas out there...
America's new timeless choice: Freedom.
Advancing Freedom.
Our heritage of liberty has reawakened...something...something...
Discard our past bad choices, time for future of freedom.

I like 'Legalize the Constitution'. The tea parties have all been about the Constitution and if they focus on that, they will see why Ron shines.

Yeah, our enemies are working overtime to misrepresent us as people who won't stop at ending the societal experiments that failed and keeping the ones that worked. But we could narrow the scope and still do well with it.

Reboot economy? (y/n)

reTHINK FREEDOM

going off reboot, but the premise being most of the people we know really do think we are "free". We need to get people to really think about what freedom really is and that there is another way we can be living...

reTHINK FREEDOM: no more war, no more income taxes, etc...

Ron Paul 2012.
Problems fixed.

Certainly a feel-good phrase, these days. But I fear we should be leary of promising too much. We have the solution, but they've been #$@&ing things up for decades and decades, and the medicine is liable to be something other than tasty.

Ron Paul has said the economy will be a big factor on if he runs. Bottom line is people prefer keeping their heads in the sand until forced to peek out. Slogan should reflect an awareness of the economy and the bought and banksters at the Fed ruining the dollar and the economy.

Yeah, with Obama's planned spending every man, woman and child will be in the hole for a quarter million bucks. Pointing that out to people might wake them up.

Libertarianism is about the government leaving you alone - that's likely to resonate with a lot of people, when you make it personal - light bulbs, toilets, girl scout cookie and lemonade stand raids, etc.

This is a bit long, but very effective. It could be modified a bit.

Why not go with the book title "RON PAUL - DEFINING LIBERTY" or "RON PAUL - LIBERTY DEFINED?"

Especially if he announces in conjunction with the release of his book.
