Here is a way that people with a few hours to spare can pull in potentially thousands of new Ron Paul voters / supporters / enthusiasts / contributors.
Firstly, while some people say the internet has been saturated with Ron Paul, I believe that there are still huge numbers of internet users that have little if any idea of who Ron Paul is. Many have their own niche interest and never bump into the Ron Paul revolution goings on.
Anyway, here is the outline of what you can do:
As background, I am a youtube director and one of my videos is quite popular with over 500,000 hits, which accumulates at about 10,000 new hits each week. If you search "Billiards" mine is the first video that comes up.
A couple of days ago I searched out "Ron Paul" on Youtube and then clicked the "View Count" link. I noticed that the second top video, with over 1.5 million hits, was a video that had been popular, which had simply added "Vote Ron Paul" to its title. This means that probably 30,000 or more per week are seeing Vote Ron Paul when coming across that video.
So I decided to add "Vote Ron Paul 2008" to the end of the title of my already popular video. A day later and it is coming up 7th after a search for "Ron Paul" under "View Count".
There are thousands of videos on youtube which have attracted 500,000+ views and which continue to gather 10,000 to 50,000 views per week. Search for various niche categories such as "sport", "race cars", "stripper", "funny" etc etc etc. Whatever you can think of and you will find some videos that get a lot of views.
Then contact the posters / directors of these videos and ask them to look into Ron Paul, and to consider adding "Vote Ron Paul 2008" or something similar to the end of their video title. (It doesn't affect the video's popularity as far as I can tell.) Also ask them to put a link to www.ronpaul2008.com in the video description.
If you can convert a few of these video owners, then this will expose potentially 100,000+ new people to the Ron Paul name.
It would be best if you pick out some subjects you have some familiarity with, and search out video uploaders in those categories. That may help you appeal to that video director.
If you can pull just a couple of director converts, that means exposure to tens or even hundreds of thousands of potential voters to Ron Paul for the first time, over the next few months. Hundreds and possibly thousands of these could end up as new Ron Paul voters, promoters and contributors.
So if you're looking for ideas of what you can do to help push along the Ron Paul Revolution, then give this a try. Certainly some video directors will welcome the idea. Some of them may even be inspired to make some more great Ron Paul videos.
Maybe some good video editors who read this forum, could produce a video to encourage directors to do this. Unfortunately my video editing / screen capturing abilities are lacking in this regard.
