Some of you have already heard this but I wanted to encourage those who don't know to please do all they can to email their friends and family video clips of Ron Paul speaking. I heard from the campaign HQ that if we can get someone to watch or listen to Dr. Paul for at least 6 minutes, then 70% of the people will be converted into supporters. I personally have witnessed this countless times and it totally works.

There are literally thousands of videos on Youtube so you have a plethora of videos to choose from - there are videos that cover a broad range of topics and perspectives. Personally, I love anything Aravoth (http://www.youtube.com/user/aravoth) does since those have been quite effective for me. I've have several people convert by watching this video as well:

Several great videos are posted here (http://www.obamala.com/). Which videos do other people find effective?

Please be sure to mention that Dr. Paul is raising in the polls and is a leading fundraiser amongst the GOP candidates. When people understand that Ron Paul has all this momentum, they are much (much much much!) more likely to give their support.

We still have a lot of work to do. Half the people I speak with don't know who the man is. A great many others like what he has to say but don't know about the huge grassroots support, increasing poll numbers, or insane fundraising. When they are told this, it changes their attitude towards Dr. Paul completely.

We have to make the Tea Party (http://www.teaparty07.com/) fundraiser gigantic. If we can, I'm confident it will convert a lot of the fence sitters and other people who are weakly supporting other candidates over to our camp.

Yep, done this numerous times. I always show the "A New Hope" video. I get right about a 70% convert rate.

And don't forget, all the videos I am putting on the podcast can be downloaded to your computer. They are also iPhone and iPod ready! Get those iPods and use them to SHOW people Ron Paul.

See my signature for details.

I have seen this happen within my family with about 5 people. It's really amazing.

Ugh I would have two more people, but they are Democrats and it's too late for them in NH.

Definitely use http://www.obamala.com for the obvious target audience.

its actually 75% of the time an undecided voter watches a 5 minute video or longer they will support ron paul and 10 % of those supporters will donate time & money

Thanks for this info. I have to twist arms to get this done, but it's well worth it. I NEED to buy a laptop. Thankfully, MO's primary is Febuary 5th: Plenty of time to buy a laptop :D

Isn't it a shame he won't do TWO FULL HOURS with Glenn Beck, then...

Unless of course that situation has changed.

Are people talking about the Ron Paul DVD Bomb at all here on ronpaulforums.com ?

http://www.ronpauldvdbomb.com/

They seem to think its a good project over on dailypaul.com - their 4 banners are the blimp, dvd bomb, op live free or die and 30 days to Iowa.

The point of the ron paul dvd bomb is to get the best quality dvd in bulk to NH and Iowa - 25k dvds to each. I think its a good project.

I know that the blimp idea has been talked about a lot here, I'm surprised I haven't heard much here about dvd bomb.
