Note from Trevor, posted on www.TeaParty07.com:
Hello Ron Paul supporters,
Obviously there is a lot of confusion regarding what to do about today's request for funds from HQ. The forums and chat rooms are filled with differing opinions. The fact is there are pro's and con's to all courses of action.
It's important to realize first and foremost that we do not have to make any rash decisions today. When things like this happen it's always best to wait at least one day to sleep on it. Things are always clearer in the morning.
For the moment it's probably best to donate some money now if you can afford to donate today and on the 16th. In this way we don't have to change any plans and the campaign can get some money right away. Many are already taking this course of action.
But, if you are unsure about your finances or about what to do please hold off. Waiting just a few days isn't going to hurt anything. That being said please know that HQ's request for funds will be addressed. I'm sure there is a happy medium that will allow us maximum impact and consideration for all sides of the issue.
On a personal note I promise you I'll be doing my best to gather information and to weigh all sides of the issue before making a final recommendation. Of course, in the end there is no one who can dictate to you what you should do. You will ultimately make our own decision about what is best. I will simply do my best to present you with all sides of the argument to help you in that decision.
Again, there is no need to be stressed out or worried. There is a happy medium and I believe we will find it. If you are unsure of what to do, for now do nothing. I'll be in touch tomorrow.
Sincerely,
Trevor Lyman
