Ron Paul Visits Greenville, NC (PICTURES)

[pacelli]

Ok, so Ron Paul came to Greenville, NC tonight, hosted by Walter Jones. Of course, since I had 1000 moneybomb cards, I took it upon myself to take half of them and hand them out. I started with all cars in the parking lot...

Then I went inside and put more cards on most of the tables and at the end of the food line..

Then a rep from the NC republican party spoke, and Walter Jones... and then Ron Paul!

I know I'm not the best photographer in the world but just wanted to share some of the evening. I have to give Gage Skidmore props, it is really difficult to take pictures of Ron during a speech. He makes really funny faces and shows his teeth a lot !!

I also got to meet GunnyFreedom who told me a really funny story about slipping behind the curtain to hand Ron & Walter some envelopes.

Unfortunately there was no time to say Hi to Ron and hand him a card about the moneybomb, but I put plenty of them on the "Reserved" tables where his campaign representatives sat.

Also want to say Hi to all of the Greenville Ron Paul supporters that I met and referred to this forum! All in all I gave out 500 cards. I'm saving the other 500 for a gun show around the same area.

I sat at Glens' table. He seems like a nice guy. He gave me his card and a NC pocketbook constitution.

The food was good too!

Awesome! There was someone at your table taking video at one point (I think). He gave me one of those too :)

Thanks for the update!

Did anyone pass out voter registration forms? We really need to start making this an emphasis at his events especially in states that have closed elections.

[redmod79]

That was probably me. I took some video for a few minutes at the beginning of Ron's speech. My hands were too shaky so I stopped. I wanted to pay more attention, anyways. I'm pretty sure there were others taking video for the whole speech. I'm sure they will show up on youtube, soon.

I don't think there was anyone there that wasn't already a republican. I was there, got a BTO card on my windshield and some gas from the BBQ. All in all, had a good time, I wish there was time to meet and greet, but it is what it is.

Good crowd... I wonder if that was you (Pacelli) who was moved around taking pictures. I was in the back middle with my wife and baby who ate pretty much the whole time...

Nice work! I hope more people will attend these events and pass out moneybomb postcards.

I was in the front middle with my wife, didn't move around too much once Walter started talking. We held off on the BBQ since the lines were so long-- I wanted to get the damned cards out. By the way, when I was putting money bomb cards on cars, I noticed at least 10-15 vehicles that had Department of Defense stickers on them. And remember, Ron mentioned his military support during his speech. Good stuff.

This displeases Ron Paul.

I tried to make sure all cars got 2. Even the Fox News cars in the parking lot got them.

bump for the late night crew.

I can't stress enough how important it will be to physically cover all RP events between now and Oct 19 with advertising the moneybomb. Go there and hand people flyers.

People that I handed the cards to had NO IDEA ABOUT IT. "Oh really? Wow, thanks!" Even though the online Ron Paul world has been promoting this since before the end of the quarter, these folks who were wearing Ron Paul t-shirts and bumper stickers had no idea about it.

So I think it is really important to recognize that even though we're getting lots of coverage on the internet, we are not effectively blanketing Ron's base.

If you are planning on attending a RP event, or an event where the crowd is likely to be receptive to Ron's message, order the cards in advance. They're well worth the price. I ordered 1000 from this site which I believe is handled by user Justin Page Wood. http://ronpauldesigns.blogspot.com/p/specials.html

This is 100% correct. I always thought we should promote the money bombs in other ways offline to compliment the online promotion.

[Jay Lalik]

I drove 3 hours and was not disappointed. I did want to meet Ron Paul but there were a bunch of people there, oh well. Hopefully I get to do something for his campaign (more than the sign bomb and canvassing).

Thank god we have people like you PACELLI! :)

[GunnyFreedom]

This was a great event! It was funny how when I burst into the curtains to hand the endorsements and contributions to Ron Paul and Walter Jones, the first thing Ron Paul did before I even had a chance to say anything was to yank out a pen like I was about to ask him to sign something :p

[pacelli]

It was a great time!!
