A small group of us has an idea for a project but want to see if there is enough interest to spend the time and effort to put it together. We need to know if you would be willing to take actual action and put on a Ron Paul House Party Event. The basic idea is to create a "Ron Paul House Party Kit". This kit would provide materials to those who wish to host their own party and invite their friends and family. Basically, a Ron Paul Tupperware Party.
The Ron Paul House Party Kit
This kit would include most everything you would need to present the ideas of Ron Paul to your family and friends. The goal is to make the event fun and entertaining. There will be 'party favors' so that the converted could take materials with them... yard signs, bumper stickers, printed materials, etc. The goal would be to have this effort go viral so your fiends tell other friends and host their own RP House Party... and so on, etc.
Using the Resource we have on Hand
We would like to keep this as simple as possible yet still be effective in regards to gaining supporters, voters and potential contributors to the Ron Paul Campaign. We want to use resources already available to put together some of the materials we would need. While we will need to create some custom content (how to guide, collateral materials, etc.) I want to use what is already existing as much as possible. This would also include a training segment for the host and a website to provide additional ideas and feedback for making this effort as effective as possible.
Our thinking, right now, is to create a complete kit which would also include basic 'party favors'. We provide a DVDs of Ron Paul videos explaining his position on various issues. We would also offer kits of different sizes that would include bumper stickers, yard signs, stickers, slim jims and other printed materials. The DVDs would have basic topic (economy, military, abortion, religious faith) but would also include an a la carte feature so you could customize the presentation to your particular audience.
Funding and Sponsorship
Our intention is that these would be sold to the host. We would also offer 'sponsorships' so supporters could pay for the kits to be contributed to hosts without the necessary capital. By selling the kits (at a very reasonable price) we would not run afoul of campaign financing laws. We would also cover any direct costs to produce, procure and ship the necessary materials.
Do you have any Interest?
No kidding, no joking around... would you avail yourself to such a Kit and arrange and present a Ron Paul House Party?
Need more details??? Please post your questions here and we will try to clarify.
additional: As eleganz noted below... yes, this is basically a tupperware party for Ron Paul. Our goal will be to provide enough materials so that extensive speech preparation will not be necessary by the host. It would be great if the host were fully familiar with all the materials... but, more as a reference source to refer any difficult questions to Ron Paul's position on the issues in the form of collateral materials that would be part of the kit. If we can get this going we could also have hosts assist with future meetings to make it easier on new hosts and to make the process more effective and enjoyable. The Tupperware analogy is a good one... think of that sort of presentation if the purpose of this House Party Kit is unclear.
