Out of the Closet...

[Caravaggio]

I have to admit I've been a lurker for some time. I've read thousands of threads, news articles, and youtube videos. I am now convinced. You have convinced me. One of the threads I recently read, implied that perhaps there should be a thread with regard to what "I have done today for the campaign". I pondered this most of the day today. My wife kept asking me, "what's wrong with you today? Are you ok?" It became clear to me that I must act. That I must act consistently, intelligently and with vigor. Today, I joined your ranks.

Today I:

-Donated to the campaign. I will give the remainder of my maximum on the 16th.
-Skyped the links to Ron Paul Videos to 5 close friends and had meaningful discussions with each of them. I am convinced I can persuade them all. I commit to reaching out to friends and colleagues each day.
-Wrote 3 emails to Marines
-Picked up 50 Slim Jims from a colleague. I need to order some.

Tomorrow I will staple a dollar bill to each slim jim, and head for the mall. I will ask each person who seems open of new ideas to take the dollar, if each will simply read the contents of the slim jim and not just throw it out. (Yes, I can hear the jokes about a dollar not being what it used to be!) But maybe it will make a statement. I'll also ask them to get online and read something about Dr. Paul and view a video online.

I'd like to thank you all for your discourse, intelligence, humor and information. Please allow me to lurk from time to time. I need to come here for inspiration.

To Grassroot action! Dr. Paul 2008!

Man, if I had the money I'd follow you on that idea, that's mah-velous!

Anyone noticed that these posts are beginning to increase in frequency!

A great idea stapling a $1 Federal Reserve Note to Slim Jims.

Absolutely awesome idea.

Welcome to the Ron Paul Forums. All of the above that you are participating in is truly doing the best thing you can possibly do for your country. Congratulations for your Maximum Campaign Contribution. The 16th is going to be huge.

[0zzy]

Thank you Thank you Thank you!
You do more than me,
but I don't drive and I'm only 17 and all my friends care less about politics and call me a kook for talking about Paul so much and a loser for thinking politics is interesting.

That's because they don't understand the stakes of our times. If we bomb Iran, the odds that you and your friends will be drafted shoot up considerably. There's only one candidate that I trust not to bomb Iran right now.

" Selective Service would provide manpower to the military by conducting a draft using a list of young men's names gathered through the Selective Service registration process. Virtually all men - ages 18 through 25 - must register. Only if there is high compliance with this law, will a future draft be fair and equitable. The obligation of a man to register is imposed by the Military Selective Service Act, which establishes and governs the operations of the Selective Service System. "

In the last year or two, they've been reconstituting the local boards that decide whether individuals can get deferments or not.

Scary.

Wow! Way to come out!! You've set yourself a high-bar - something we can all aspire to emulate, and work to do daily. We do it because we must.

Great idea! Definitely stamp/write on them first. (on the border - we don't want to come across as vandals.) Then the dollar you give out will keep on passing the message many times-fold.

That is the best idea I've hear in a LONG TIME (which is a week or two around here). I'm going to try that one out for sure.

Welcome aboard. I think this might be just the ticket for a Black Friday promo nationwide. I think it's brilliant. Talk about cheap advertising!

Stamp Ron paul on each dollar for a latent effect.

It is so great to have you here! It's so exciting to more "Ronbots" and "spammers" join our ranks. Thanks for what you are doing.

[Slist]

Have you tried this one-dollar action? Did it work well??

I'm bumping this because it seems like a good idea..

It seems that you are also suffering from ROCD (Revloution Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) which is usually caused by chronic OCG (out of control government)

We here at Ron Paul Forums are like a big support group and all have discovered a cure for our illness - Liberty therapy. LT,Combined with a strong Constitution, can not only cure those suffering from ROCD and OCG it can become a recipe for a lifetime of freedom that you can not only share with others, but pass to your children as well. Our physician highly recommends this treatment. If you wish to seek treatment, please contact:

Dr. Ron Paul.
at www.ronpaul2008.com

p.s. This treatment can also cure apathy and disillusion. I highly recommend it.

[Kingfisher]

Excellent. Welcome

[CurtisLow]

My wife kept asking me, "what's wrong with you today?

I know what you mean... It is a wake up call and I'm sure we as Ron Paul supporters feel the strain of what our government is doing to our country and freedoms.

Welcome to the forums as a member and glad to have you on board!
