Dear Ron Paul Supporter,

Even though you don't live in Iowa you can play a crucial role in helping Ron Paul win the 2012 Iowa Republican Caucus on January 3.

I'm asking you to consider giving a 1 or 2-minute speech at one of the local precinct caucus meetings on the evening of January 3rd telling people why you like Ron Paul and why Iowans should vote for him.

Iowa law allows anyone, from any state, to give a speech at these local precinct caucus meetings. You can give a speech, but, of course, you may not vote. There are a total of 1784 precincts in Iowa, and our goal is to have a Ron Paul supporter at each of the precinct caucuses giving a 1 or 2-minute speech.

Perhaps you are hesitating.

Perhaps you think that just giving a short speech wouldn't help Ron Paul.

Here are just two examples of how important these stump speeches are. In one meeting in Council Bluffs, Iowa in 2008, Ron Paul went from likely getting 12% of the vote to actually getting 40% of the vote after a supporter gave a great 2-minute speech. In another meeting in Jefferson County, Iowa, Ron Paul got 82% of the vote after local Ron Paul speech contest winners delivered their powerful stump speeches. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSok_nzRtZA&feature=youtu.be

Please consider helping Ron Paul win Iowa.

We need you.

Is one of these threads stickied? They now want people from all over the country to come into Iowa on the night of the caucus and make a speech for Ron Paul. This is part of an organized effort to make sure that there's a Ron Paul person at every precinct. This doesn't appear to be part of the official campaign, and the official campaign might be doing the same thing, but I'm certainly in favor of a project that is based on people doing important tasks on the most important day in a systematic manner.
I'd also recommend, if they aren't doing so already, that they all get the results, and report the results to many places. I'm am very pleased that rp2012.org is on top of this, and can act as a type of clearing house for this data.
