we have only 8200 pledges on http://www.blackthisout.com/ so what´s keeping you from pledging ?

What´s keeping you for inviting your friends for the event ? If everyone gets just 5 people to donate we will get over 60.000 people onboard!

This is the last chance to get Ron Paul elected and we need serious moneybomb to do that.

I guarantee that you get a satisfaction when you recruit people onboard, give it a try! :)

Freedom is everything!

With all the respect to Glen, i think Ron Paul is much more important!

And he only needs less than 1/100th as much support, which he hasn't gotten so far. We neglect our future candidates at our peril.

This Ron Paul forums so i assume that most of people love Ron Paul! I really can´t see why a person who loves Ron wouldn´t parcipate on this historic event! or even ask somebody to parcipate. That´s why i posted this topic.

We need to build up a momentum for the fundraising and we can raise more than Mitt!

Keep in mind that there are those who will donate who do not like to pledge, for whatever reason. That being said, as one of those 43 who donated to Glen, I will have to admit that I have been disappointed in fundraising here in general. :(

He should have changed the date to his money bomb. There was too much going on at that time.

Really quite interesting to see a couple forum members disrespecting other forum members for not donating... when one in particular spends all day online on this site not doing anything besides adding to their post count.

Whose website is that? And why do they want my email address?

Agreed. It is also a bit annoying to have someone in Europe trying to constantly use a stick to motivate people on this forum. Some folks here are maxed out... some folks here are donating their food money. The disrespectful manner seems highly counterproductive, to me at least.

Perhaps a better method for our European friends would be to support efforts to which they can legally contribute. And, organize others who cannot make financial contributions to the campaign or PACs to do the same... provide financial support to proven Ron Paul supporters who could use some assistance to continue their efforts.

Wouldn't it be great if our European friends make some healthy donations to someone like Mike Maresco?
http://www.maresco.us/support

Or, pick another proven, grassroots activist to support... someone like Gage and his trips to give us photos of Ron Paul to be used as the grassroots might need for upcoming projects. Obviously, this would need to be a blind donation with no promise of it going to any specific project... that would be illegal. But, there are proven activists who could use the financial support.

So, they can keep running their mouth... or put in some effort where it really matters... and put their money where their mouth is... rather than beating up people who are straining to keep this campaign funded.

I have pledged. I just get suspicious any time someone tries to tell people that the one way they have to contribute to the campaign must be this one pet project of theirs. It makes it look to me like their motives are at least partially driven by something other than the campaign itself.

How many threads has qwerty started?

Why is it that this thread has more responses than my thread on the Ohio Straw Poll (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?319337-Ohio-Straw-Poll-At-OSU-swingstatestrawpoll.com&p=3604349#post3604349)? This is a good community but there is so much noise drowning out other threads.

Please stop making new threads about the same topic! :mad:

Thanks for mentioning that. I didn't realize the turnout was that low.

We ought to come up with a way to make up for it, like having another surprise money bomb for him that's spontaneous and grassroots-driven.

[Tarzan]

ninepointfive & Tarzan... I don´t care about you, the naysayers...We will do this with or without your help.

Just who is this WE to whom you are referring? You are NOT part of the WE euroboy... you can't vote and you can't contribute...you are just an annoyance. Are you maxed out? I am! Just how much have you contributed monetarily? Yeah, I know the answer... NOTHING!

I gave you a viable alternative to do something productive... instead you go straight back to insult mode. Get off your lazy ass and make a genuine contribution... unless you are just trying to yank our chain.

Go do something productive and stop being such an annoying putz.
My first guess would be that you are Belgian... but you are annoying enough to be French.

[ninepointfive]

Hey... we just need to focus on positive efforts. I will probably donate to the BTO moneybomb after pledging to not donate anything more than my time and effort. Of which, I do my best to run a local group, train delegates, and inspire people to work towards a productive end.

There is a lot of mudslinging and competitiveness this go-around. Forum members who post on the ronpaulforums all day should do some introspecting on doing something productive to help Ron get elected, other than be negative to each other.

I can only laugh to that kind of people... really, grow up! :D

Should we ask Ron Paul who can be part of the Ron Paul revolution...? I bet he disagrees with you!

GROW UP! :D


PS. And yeah i´m not doing anything for BTO and Ron Paul...PLEASE don´t talk the things you know nothing about, that will only make you look more ...... than now.


One example could be that my youtube channel has millions of views ? Have you reached that much for Ron Paul ?

Yes it is. And honestly even worse, if Ron isn't elected, we will likely be a full blown dictatorship police state 1984 on steroids by 2016. The truth is it's coming. Will it come that fast? It depends on how fast people wake up. Getting Ron elected will stall this and start to seriously turn the tide in our favor. He would be the most hated President in the history of the media, but even half a term would wake up SO MANY PEOPLE. Let's get him elected!

Huffington Post's Fundrace database keeps me from donating. Liberal assholes that don't respect peoples privacy.

I'm sorry but I don't want to have visibly donated to Paul. I don't trust the government. My security is threatened if that is made public, and my career is at risk because employers almost always google employees. I do it in other ways by giving to chip-ins for more focused projects.

Fundrace can suck my ass. I stayed under $200 last election but they still singled me out. I thought only donations over $200 were made public? People giving as little as $5 were added to their fucking database.

Some people actually make donations by getting money orders under $200 and sending them via the postal service directly to the campaign. Since you fill in the information on the money order it is really easy to make a mistake when entering your name and address... so, you want to be careful and not have any typos... or miss spell your name... or transpose any numbers in your address... or be thinking of an address you have back in school... or an old PO box. ;)

To be fair, in May-June~ish I was all but begging people here to go in for a Ron Paul MB on Sept 17th and nobody seemed interested. So I set mine up and started promoting it. Around August when we all suddenly decided that RP should have a Constitution Day Moneybomb too, mine was already carved in stone.

I guess I am a lot like Ron Paul in that I sometimes make this horrible habit of being right when everybody else isn't... :D :p

Not unless we show we can support more than one candidate at a time. We got BJ Lawson millions in 2008. Most people aren't going to work as hard as Michael Moresco and I did. Most people aren't even going to try running for office outspent 7 to 1. Most people will look at the history of donations to candidates who are running on the Ron Paul platform, see that we tend to get on average less than 1/5 of our opponents, and decide not to try.

I am very thankful...VERY thankful to the 44 people from RPF's who donated. Especially some who really bent over backwards to help. I just want to remind you that this movement isn't about Ron Paul, it's about restoring the Constitution. Ron Paul himself says that. You can't do that from the Oval Office alone, you just can't. Without people of the same platform at all levels of government, you'll just end up with a logjam that reverts to it's previous condition in 4 to 8 years.

If you don't think my record in the State House is good enough, then find someone else, but we need more than just one Constitutionalist in government. Well, 4 I suppose, when you count Rand, Amash, and Lee. Don't forget that amendments, like the Balanced Budget Amendment, come through the State Legislatures.

I got elected in 2010, while outspent 7 to 1. I was able to do that because I was still largely under the radar. Now the status quo establishment is gunning for me because I stand up on the House Floor and talk about silly stuff like the 4th Amendment, which embarrasses them. I did manage to block some significantly statist bills though, like RealID Compliance. Another reason they will be gunning for me int he primary.

Glen has introduced or supported legislation in the 2011 session which aligns closely with no less than 7 of our legislative focuses. This is the most number of bills of any legislator in the 2011 session, including a heroic introduction of The Constitutional Tender act, where he was the sole primary sponsor with no co-sponsors.

Glen: Thank you so much for your heroic efforts in the 2011 NC Legislative Session! You are an inspiration to us all!

Dear Reader: Please take a moment of your time and send Representative Bradley a heartfelt Thank You! His contact information is provided below. Please visit his re-election site (http://glenbradley2012.com/) and donate your time or money as you can. Appropriately, there is a Constitution Day moneybomb scheduled for September 17th.

Here is a listing of the bills which Representative Bradley has sponsored or co-sponsored, and for which we at the Tenth Amendment Center are very grateful. Primary sponsor is designated by a P, and co-sponsor by a C.

H 2 – Protect Healthcare Freedom (C)

H 34 – State’s Right to Claim Sovereignty (P)

H 65 – North Carolina Famer’s Freedom Protection Act (P)

H 240 – Intrastate Commerce (P)

H 241 – North Carolina Firearms Freedom Act (P)
