Ron Paul has massive support amongst Independents, Democrats, Libertarians and disenfranchised Republicans. However, Dr. Paul absolutely can not win the Republican Nomination without strong support from the Republican base. If you think Dr. Paul can win the Republican Nomination just by converting Democrats and Independents, you are crazy.
For months, the media has been subtlety tricking the Republican base into thinking Ron Paul is not a “real” Republican (by introducing him as a Libertarian, highlighting his support from Democrats/Independents and emphasizing that he will not support the Republican nominee). We must counter this thinking at all costs! Reaching out to the Republican base is possibly the most important thing we can do right now!
Here are a few very simple ways we can reach out to the Republican base:
Identify yourself as a "Ron Paul Republican (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=33021)"
Emphasize Ron Paul's 10 terms in congress as a Republican
Emphasize the single-day Republican fundraising record (Nov 5th)
Put a GOP bumper sticker next to your Ron Paul bumper sticker
Wear a GOP button when doing door-to-door canvassing
Attend every local GOP meeting you can!
Also, while we’re trying to get new people to become GOP delegates, at the same time, we should be reaching out to people that have been Republican delegates numerous times in the past. Even if they don’t support Dr. Paul outright, we need to influence them so they’ll be more favorable to him in the caucuses!
Lastly, for the Non-Republicans supporting Dr. Paul, ask yourself, if he was elected President, wouldn’t you be more likely to become a Ron Paul Republican?
