This young group fits the Ron Paul demographic for targeted voters. They are getting the snow ready in New Hampshire.

Passing out literature in lift lines? Boarding with Ron Paul bibs? Hmmm. My son (24 years old) is a snowboarder and RP supporter.

put a sticker on the front end of your board... every time you get on a lift, it's right there for everyone to see

Would be amazing to get one of those beautiful 'action shots' from like below a jump, the sun catching the white of the snow and just a boarder, in the moment, with RON PAUL 2008 on the bottom of his board and in the middle of the frame.

A postcard!!!

We will need some good signs on the way to the ski lifts.

Hundreds of thousand of people will be at the ski resorts over the upcoming school breaks.

Since California and Nevada are early primaries they should be targeted.

Most skiers, snowboarders and mountain bikers like the freedom message.

we need stickers on every lift pole, so that every time someone hops on a lift, each pole they pass says "vote for ron paul 2008"

How about a MeetUp?

I made this:

But it could be for the whole US or just state by state.

Do you want to run a snowboarder for RP meetup?

I had a local meet-up that had 7 people,but i had some money issues and no one in the group stepped up to help keep it going so i let it go.

I love to spread Ron Pauls Message and passout flyers and talk till im blue in the face,but i just dont have the money to keep the costs of 19 bucks a month and various expenses,though i use every dollar i have to print flyers and i pass them out.I also donate some to the www.ronpaul2008.com or other chip ins.

I would love to plan and do some advertising here,but i have found it hard to get everyone together to donate to help,so in someways im frustrated because i dont have the funds,but i know from working on amendment 44 that we can get a majority vote for Ron Paul in my 3 counties and many more in Colorado.The front range meetup groups are doing a great job.

I try my best with what i have.
If i could find some help,id be more then glad to post my activities and plans and accounting,so others could see something Great happening in Summit/Eagle/Lake counties. I have alot of ideas for this area.I would love to share.I know this just by my flyering and talking,people love the message.I'm proud to do the foot work.

If others want to help,I know we could easily get 56% majority in all 3 counties where i roam;)

My wife is starting to get jealous,but she is a supporter:)

I'll be in Telluride, hopefully in December. We are skiers, so we'll slap a bumper sticker on our skis and the back of our jackets! Great idea!!

I've been a ski instructor for the last 2 ski seasons at Winterplace Ski Resort in Ghent/Flat Top, West Virginia.

I suggest including us skiers and not just snowboarders! We're cool too! :)

We will need some youtube videos also.

Much of Ron Paul's financial support comes from the west.

We need some Ron Paul Meet up groups in every ski resort.
