I have seen some topics talking about ways to bring in more donation money on the 16th so I figured I would make a thread to include all the ways we think of. Here are some I know off the top of my head, but I know there are more, so as you name them I will add them to the list:
1. Donate your own money of course. Donate as much as you can from the money you don't absolutely need for bills and such.
2. Ebay! Lets auction off everything but our left arm. Afterall, we need that to pay for gas and income tax lol! Then you can add the money you make off of your ebay auction/sales to the donation you were already able to make.
3. Get other people to donate! Try to talk 6-7 people into donating that you know like Ron Paul. Out of that many, you will probably get 2 or 3 I would think, especially if you say something like "There's going to be a record setting historic fundraising push for Paul on the 16th so you should buy a bumper sticker and a yard sign that day! It will count as a donation so you will be part of it and get some cool Ron Paul stuff."
4. Promote! If you're one of those special internet talented people do that stuff. If you're not talented but use the internet go through sites like myspace and facebook where you can communicate with lots of people by sending out friend requests and such. If you don't like the internet get with your local meet.com group for Paul and find out what they're going to do. Printing off fliers on your computer and handing them out to let people know whats happening will help too. Or you can call news media to get their attention on the subject. You could also take an add out in a local paper for the Dec.16th event including Ron Paul's name, the teaparty07.com site, ronpaul2008.com, the BTP theme, and whatever else is important that I missed lol.
