I am Rob Johnson, chairman of the University of Michigan for Ron Paul. We're putting on what will be a major Ron Paul event at the University of Michigan on the biggest day in sports rivalry!
This will be the biggest Ron Paul Football outing of the year! We have a large group of OSU fans who will be heading to Ann Arbor to campaign side by side with us. This is a chance to make a huge statement to the ability of Paul to cut across divides. The Michigan-OSU rivalry is the biggest and most heated sports rivalry in the entire US, if we can show that Ron Paul bring us together, we will make a huge statement about how deep his support runs. In addition to the typical campaign activities, the plan is to have not one but two Ron Paul airplane banners flying at the same time! In fact the Buckeyes have already raised all the money and have set theirs up! We need to catch up with our rivals and get our plane up there! Please donate at:

In addition to that, there is a very good chance that ESPN Gameday will cover this game. If they do, they will be have all the major commentators and crew covering football games across the nation in Ann Arbor. They always have an outside booth behind which fans can stand and hold signs. We'd like to have a giant "Michigan and Ohio State united behind Ron Paul Banner" held by Michigan and Ohio State fans behind the booth. If this happens we would literally reach MILLIONS of viewers. I can't think of a much better opportunity to make a huge splash for Ron Paul. The audience will be national and the visual impact of Michigan and Ohio State fans standing together on the most heated day of the rivalry will be unprecedented. Please contribute to our banner if possible and held make this an event they will talk about across the nation! Local and national media will be informed about this event, and judging by the reaction I already got from the Ann Arbor News, I think the media will be there.
