I thought maybe it'd be interesting if people posted their most interesting or random signs or locations. I only thought about this because yesterday I visited an Army R&R post and I saw this "sign" in the bathroom of the BX/PX (shopping center).

On my afternoon train commute back to the suburbs, I discovered a few weeks ago there was a big Ron Paul sticker above one of the "TO CHICAGO" signs. Makes my day, everytime. :)s

I saw signs that said "who is ron paul?" and "youtube ron paul" near the 91W entrance (McKinley St. entrance) in Corona, CA a couple of days ago. I also saw a big banner for Ron Paul on the 5 South overpass near the Lake Foreset, Ca area a few weeks back.

i gave my friend a ron paul slimjim, he said "who is ron paul? i see a car with "google ron paul" on it everyday i go to work" i just smiled and said well let me tell you

but he didn't really care, he's pretty apathetic, except for when i mentioned not taxing tips, since he's a waiter. :)

About two months ago, I saw a random, homemade Ron Paul Revolution sign along a fence at the I-35 - I-240 interchange in Oklahoma City. It was there for several days before something, likely the weather, took it down. Before that, I didn't know there were any Ron Paul supporters near us, but there is a military base (Tinker AFB) not too far away, and later I noticed that a woman from Midwest City, OK donated during a money bomb.

went to wendy's and ordered a cheeseburger deluxe -- got to the drive through window, and the girl (all of 16?) saw a ron paul sticker on my window.

"Oh my gosh!" she said, "You should read his book, A Foreign Policy of Freedom!"

It's quite sad when I'm surprised that a teen girl read a book, let alone a political book.

Oh, and I've seen a few signs around Philly.

Today a coworker told me he was going through some expensive towns... and he saw lawn sign after sign after sign... house after house... HE LOST COUNT AROUND 70!!! I said, "Was someone just putting up signs by the road? He said NO, they were carefully placed on the homeowners' property... he said, "You could see the hired gardeners doing their thing next to the signs... these were expensive properties."

Too bad "libertarian" was spelled wrong.

I've seen many a RP sticker on public light poles, signs, traffic boxes, etc. But my favs have been a car with a RP themed taxi-cab style banner box on top of a car and a giant sign on someone's farm in the middle of farm-country Illinois. Oh, and the first time I saw a RP banner over the I355 this summer sent chills down my spine.

one day i came home and my dad was driving me somewhere, he said "lets see if these are still here" as he drives down one of the main roads in my city, there are like five lightpoles in a row that had "RON PAUL" signs on them. they had been up all day :)
i still never see bumper stickers though.

Some one put bumper stickers on a couple of traffic light control boxes on Connecticut Ave in DC near Woodley Park. I see them every morning on my way to work. They've been there since before the Anti-War march in September. Someone else put a Liberty Card in the Onion box out side the building where I work. Every time someone grabs a copy of the Onion they see the card.

Driving from San Antonio to central NY last week, I saw Ron Paul signs in Austin (I-35), Arkansas (middle of nowhere on I-75?), saw about 10 big banners in northern Kentucky/Cincinnati, one outside Erie, PA, and have even seen signs in small towns like Whitesboro and Clinton, NY.

BTW, I saw ZERO signs for Hillary, Rudy, Obama, Thompson, McCain, Romney, and Richardson combined (did see one for kucinich in Ohio).

I work for a Fortune 500 company. There is 1 other car in my parking ramp with a Ron Paul bumper sticker.

I've seen Ron Paul signs at a couple houses in St. Paul.

I've seen a homemade "RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT" sign on I-94 about 20-30 miles into Wisconsin past the MN border.

A girl came up to me at lunch today and said "hey thanks for telling me about Ron Paul, I looked him up and it seems I like him and so does my mom". I told well we hope to see you voting in March. As she walked off I said would you like a bumper sticker? She gladly accepted 1 :)

My friend at work told me she was waiting at a stop light. People jumped out of the car in front of her and a man picked up a woman so she could quickly nail a Who is Ron Paul? sign onto a pole. They jumped back into their car and sped away...

1. Driving to grand island up in New York I saw a big Ron Paul Revolution sign hanging next to the highway.

2. Driving back over the Ohio and Pennsylvania border I saw a Ron Paul billboard. Whoever paid for that I salute you.

A friend of mine is in Iowa now, working for the Hillary campaign (he works for a labor union, and they made him go--he's a dedicated socialist who I haven't been able to convert)

He says RP signs and bumper stickers in Iowa outnumber all the other candidates put together.

here is Florida I see them a lot--more than any other candidate.

Want something REALLY random? I stick liberty cards in car windows next to the driver's side front lock while I'm coming home from work.

Well, this time I was having trouble sticking the card in the window seal. The wind snatched the card out of my hand, blew it around to the front of the car, and slammed it down between the windshield wiper and the windshield as if I'd put it there myself.

Talk about invisible support for Ron Paul from elements not connected to the campaign!

Today on the 91E I saw a bumper sticker for Dr. Paul and going back on the 91W I saw two stickers for Dr. Paul on a Scion.

No other signs for any other candidates.

I went to my hometown today, lansdale Pa. The main train station in the area has an italian sandwich shop inside. I went in and saw that the owner is giving out Paul bumperstickers and slimjims. I Started talking to him about it and he told me he heard about Paul from "the breadman" who delivers bread in a truck that is a giant Paul billboard.

my friend was getting some piercings, and I went to the tattoo place with her.. and the lady that owned the place said "ohh ron paul!".. (she mustve seen my button)

needless to say, its probably the most popular parlor here in Erie, and there are two Ron Paul signs in the windows and a stack of bumper stickers on the counter. :cool:

oh, and I told her I'd get her some bigger signs for out front.


and at staples today.. customer.. "oh, cool, Ron Paul!"

and at work today "Ron Paul, awesome, he's the only one who can fix things"


and a regular customer into work today.. "hey, im starting to see a lot more of Ron Paul. Meet the press this sunday!"

my response. "yes, i know :) "

Well, I had a bumper sticker which lasted one day. It went missing while I was parked at work!Then I had a lawn sign, which lasted 2 days. Someone down the street has had one for months now and noone touches it. Apparently some who dislike him seem to truly hate him.

I have 10 more signs coming in the mail of course, which will hopefully last a couple weeks. but its been 10 days already. They could work on speeding up the shipping.

I wear my button every day and have a bumper sticker as well as a copy of the USA Today ad up in my cube at work.

I've had positive comments from the CEO, VP of Administration, and IT Manager in the past couple weeks. Don't know if it means anything in particular, but it can't hurt...right?

Just to follow up on my last post...

Decided to look up people employed by my company at OpenSecrets.org to see where they were donating...

The only persons that show up as employed here that have donated are the CEO and his father (who works for us as a consultant). The CEO donated $2300 this cycle...to Ghouliani and Fred. :mad:

Who knows? Maybe after the end of the year I can have better news to report. Not sure my donations will show up because they've all been below $200.

In my little city in MI, I've seen two Ron Paul sign waves, and one yard sign, as well as a Ron Paul ad on the radio. Nothing for any other of the candidates. The first time I saw a sign wave, it was snowy, and the sun reflecting off the snow put a glare on the signs and I thought, "Wouldn't it be cool if those were Ron Paul people?" I honestly didn't believe that they were, until I passed by, and saw the signs out of the glare. I was so inspired the rest of the day, I had that cloud nine feeling.
