Things are changing. Have you noticed it?
Look at the crowds of Ron Paul supporters now......a lot more older supporters, and a lot more women.
Our demographic has changed, and I think that it's a good thing.
New ideas have come into our camp.
We had some ideas in the past that were great in a way, but they were overused. They were misunderstood by the public and (I think) skewed public perception.
I think that the Re-love-ution sign was one overused, and misunderstood, campaign tool.
It was a great sign for the die-hards - it stood as a symbol of solidarity. But outsiders didn't understand it. It looked odd (and alien) to a lot of the mainstream public.
But look at what we're doing now:

Bold.
Precise.
Easy to understand.
Positive.
I think it's time to retire the re love ution. It's time to replace it with a real tool that everyone understands.
Keep it as a symbol, but lets use the tools that anyone can pick up and build with.
This is just my opinion. I don't mean to offend anyone. You are the reason that our campaign has grown into something better.
Thank you.
