The time and money needed to elect the best president since George Washington and Thomas Jefferson are quickly running out.
The Time
New Hampshire could hold its primary as early as December 11. Iowa is set for January 3, with Wyoming, Michigan, Nevada, South Carolina and Florida scheduled soon thereafter. And Super Tuesday (20 states) will be on February 5.
The Money
Dr. Paul is frugal with taxpayers' money and with donors' money. When other campaigns spend $5, we spend $1. When John McCain had 120 staff members, we had 15. The New York Times reported five days ago that Hillary Clinton now has "a campaign staff of about 500 people." We now have 58.
Frugality goes a long way. But frugality doesn't erase the need for us to spend millions of dollars to win. Our country is enormous, and most Americans - even Americans who regularly vote in the primaries - have never heard of Ron Paul, let alone know what he stands for.
And that's where the $12 million goal for this quarter comes in. A few days ago, we wrote a check for $897,695 to broadcast several different TV ads in New Hampshire alone. That's nearly $1 million to broadcast just TV ads in just one state.
And then there's Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, South Carolina... So as you can see, it won't take long before our $5 million in the bank will be gone.
We have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we have little time to seize it.
Washington. Jefferson. Paul.
