[tsetsefly]

not the book right?

[Matthew Zak]

obviously it was the book

[coboman]

Man, I don't believe anything anymore. The only surprise from the official campaign is how bad they can do their job, which is no longer a surprise.

[10thAmendmentMan]

not the book right?

What book?

Edit: Nevermind. I didn't see the other thread.

[JAHOGS]

Whatever man.... This is getting old guys. Let's all grow up a little bit.

[musicmax]

It's "coming", [Admin note - remove personal attack ]

[radhruin]

It's "coming", idiot.

Wow, petty name calling. A new low. :'(

[mkrfctr]

ghemminger comes out of the closet!

/kidding
//or am i...?

[zeegrim]

Bah, toying with us, first you need to wait for an e-mail, now you'd rather eat than let us all know?! :-p

[musicmax]

Wow, petty name calling. A new low. :'(

No, a "new low" is when Americans don't know how to spell two-syllable words. When they can't differentiate between "its" and "it's". Between "loose" and "lose". Between "your" and "you're". Between "their", "they're" and "there".

And it's even a lower low when someone defends the idiot and his idiocy.

Sorry but most of our parents could not afford to send us to private school. Many of us could not even move to the suburbs either.

Nice. Way to be a grammar nazi. :rolleyes:

[risiusj]

Calm down, everyone. If we don't watch out this place will turn into an internet forum. :cool:
No one's spilling their guts until the campaign unveils whatever it is.
Just sit back, wait, and have a little bit of faith in the pros.

[JosephTheLibertarian]

Yes, I'm another socialism survivor.

I'm going to Lunch - I'll let you guys know after I get back!

Not the Book!

OMG! :eek: :D :) :cool:

You know, DjLOTI did this once. It was just before he announced the creation of RonPaulRadio.com . The threads turned into huge flames and long lists of annoyance about how a secret was being held, blah, blah, etc.... All that happened was alot of frustration was created among people on this board.

Ron Paul Radio is huge as you obviously know. Teasing the forum had nothing at all to do with its success though. Rather, it only succeeded in driving people nuts, kinda like torture.

[yongrel]

Wow, it takes less and less everyday for flaming to start. Lovely.

[slantedview]

should i go to lunch too, or stay glued to my screen waiting for ghemminger?

yeah, dj took some serious heat back in the day, but he prevailed. i think his was a worthy surprise.

[justinc.1089]

Aaaauuuuuueeeergggghhhhh the campaign is even starting to taunt us now I think!:mad:

The official myspace just posted this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7V9WbaL-o_Q

I'm thinking its talking about what I'm thinking the big secret is too.

Oh God. That sounds exactly like Fred Thompson's strategy a couple months back. "Well! Ever'wun's always bin sayin' that yew gotta campaign aggressively and spind munny't break-neck pace to win, but the rules are about to change. Ahm not doin' inny campaignin' an' look wher I'm at in the polls! I just think that...mumble, mumble...somethin' 'bout flies in the summer...mumble..."

I'm donating my hard earned paycheck money to Ron Paul SO THEY CAN SPEND AT BREAKNECK PACE, not take a Fred Thompson strategy. Please don't let that be what they're thinking.

[justinc.1089]

Well I can't just blurt it out but there are tons of clues and hints and stuff as to what it may be in that enormous thread we have about it lol. We can't have other campaigns or the media catching on anyway for this, its too big.

[kushaze]

If there isn't a revealed secret when dude gets back from lunch I am going to be supper pissed. The secrets better be freakin awesome to or I will be supper pissed. If the secret is awesome I will go shovel my driveway, which will cause me to be supper pissed.

[Patronus]

Whereas a harsh critical attitude might not be completely warranted, making just simple grammar mistakes can oftentimes reflect poorly on your credibility. I think it's beneficial if we point out grammar mistakes to each other, since it will make us seem more intelligent even in discussions outside this forum - though a more civil approach might be desired.

One of my tricks is to use a browser with a spell checker. Firefox underlines all my mistakes in red, so I know when I'm making dumb spelling errors.

I think maybe you're misunderstanding the video's message about campaigning.

[Matthew Zak]

He's probably going to announce his running mate or something.

[nbhadja]

This whole board is mindless speculation. Ignore it all.

[Ethek]

I support this secret.

[yongrel]

He's probably going to announce his running mate or something.

That would certainly be interesting. *crosses fingers for Clever Hans*

[justinc.1089]

I support this secret.

Yeah I'm endorsing it, which means my full weight of one person supporting it has now been thrown behind it! :D:p:p

[frasu]

Wow, it takes less and less everyday for flaming to start. Lovely.

We live stressful times, all anxious for this week's actions to swing like a metal hammer upside MSM's head. For sake's we are all HOLDing, ready to donate on TeaDumpDay and freaking curious for some real news about the BLIMP, like photos or something... Man, way to play with people's nerves, getting out, on the top of all this, a rumor/suprize... hahahaha
Dang, and there is a debate tomorrow... what a week... so yeah, what is the surprise? :D

[austin356]

little late for lunch, huh, Hemminger?

[JAHOGS]

Well I can't just blurt it out but there are tons of clues and hints and stuff as to what it may be in that enormous thread we have about it lol. We can't have other campaigns or the media catching on anyway for this, its too big.

Yeah I read that entire post.... But still came away with nothing. I wasted 30 minutes of my life. LOL. Anyway, just comment on what you think it is. What is everyone afraid to hide?

[davidhperry]

Man, I don't believe anything anymore. The only surprise from the official campaign is how bad they can do their job, which is no longer a surprise.

It's ok to gripe but why don't you suggest what they should be doing? Have you contacted the campaign about this?

[kushaze]

Is this a power lunch or some other type of lunch? Are you reflecting on the secret at this lunch or do you just want to see how many people post to this thread before you come back for lunch?

[Adam Smith]

I thought Ron Paul was about transparency, no? If you guys know what the secret is just tell it already.

I'm not patient enough for this, obviously.

[Hook]

You guys are sooooo FOS.
There is nothing the campaign is gonna do to top the blimp. I'm suprised they can even walk and chew at the same time.
Don't get your hopes up.
And work on canvassing. The grassroots is where it is at.

[Ethek]

The secrete is apparently something that could be 'spoiled' by another campaign. Ether through some type of advance pres release or talking point. I say continue with the wild conjecture and everyone in the know should hold a tongue.

fortunately it sounds like critical details have been withheld from everyone. I will say this. Anticipation is very tiering for everyone. Friendlies and Opposing Forces alike.

What a stupid thread.

OMG! :eek: :D :) :cool:

Well it has been almost 2 hours since you posted. Are you back from lunch yet?

If you aren't going to post and instead plan to disappear, then let us know so I can go and take a nap.

[torchbearer]

Where do you sign up? Did you know that some libertarians bought there on island and moved there?

Atlantis = Cyprus

[Xanax Nation]

Is it the new radio ad?

[justinc.1089]

Just watch that video and think about what its saying ok? And what the campaign has been doing lately? (nothing much)

Ron Paul will be in Boston for the Tea Party.

Sorry, I'm just not getting it. I don't see how the campaign lounging around like a lazy lion and doing nothing is going to get Ron Paul into the White House. In the video, it looks like the lion was already where he needed to be while the antelope was trying to run to get there. However, in real life, Ron Paul is NOT where he needs to be right now--he's lagging in the polls and hq is not getting his name out there.

[Adam Smith]

I can't get youtube at work...:(

[philistineau]

All the video shows is an antelope running with a voice over saying "conventional wisdoms says you need to spend money at a break neck speed". Cuts to lion doing nothing with Ron Paul's face on it.

etc

Antelope runs into tree.

"The rules are about to change".

Lion roars.


Suggests the campaign has been hoarding its money. No idea what they are going to buy with it - maybe a small baseball team? Perhaps they will succeed and raise a small militia? Another thing could be a textile factory to churn out thousands of shirts...

/jk

Nap time. I presume nothing will be resolved today.

[aspiringconstitutionalist]

Or a factory in Chicago. That makes miniature models. Of factories.

[justinc.1089]

I can't get youtube at work...:(

The video shows one of those african deer animal things (whatever they're called) running really fast, and says "Conventional wisdom in politics says to win you've got to run with wreckless abandonment and spend money at a breakneck pace." Then shows a lion starting to get up or something, and then goes back to the deer we will say running really fast. "Its the tried and true path to success in the primaries for one reason: its always seemed to work." Then you see the lion behind a tree, and the deer running straight to the tree. The narrator then says "Until now" and the deer smacks the tree. Then you hear the lion growl since its about to eat the deer I guess. Then the narrator says "The rules are about to change."

Its pretty straightforward really.

LOL. Thanks for the color commentary.;)

[micahnelson]

So we are letting lions loose at opponents rallies?

[shadowhooch]

brilliant!
Money well spent imo.:D;)

[ghemminger]

I'm totally torn guys - this is a confirmed rumor from someone at HQ. But then it was contracted and denied.

[FunkBuddha]

I'm totally torn guys - this is a confirmed rumor from someone at HQ. But then it was contracted and denied.

Well, if you're gonna tell it, tell it in the chat room... If it's something they don't want anyone knowing about, it'd be best not to post it here in the forums... or not post it at all.

[kushaze]

You're saying that, as the lion, we're just gonna sit and wait until all the rest of the candidates, the deer, through their own stupidity and dumb decisions, run headlong into crushing obstacles, causing their own campaigns to keel over and die and we devour them? Metaphorically speaking of course.:p

[Hook]

Hey, I just noticed that rhymes. Cool.

[ghemminger]

Ok - I changed the first post - that's all I can say for now - I'll check and try to get you guys more details on this thread or the show!

Brilliant strategery! Now you know why we need to step up the grassroots effort to save Ron from his campaign! :)

Not exactly. We don't just wait, metaphorically we're becoming the lion while they are running full speed ahead like that deer. I would hate to just post this but like everyone has said its in the 55 page thread. The strategy or secret won't work if other campaigns or the media catch on to what we're about to do.

[Hook]

yeah, yeah, yeah......
<Yawn>

But if the Tea Party is what it is supposed to be expect a HUGE and I mean a HUGE rollout nationally for RP!!!! Awesome!

huh? what does that even mean?

[murrayrothbard]

They could go big. Primetime broadcast TV ads, etc

[aspiringconstitutionalist]

At the rate of lion-transformation the campaign is currently undergoing, we might even be at 9% nationally by the time the primaries start! And who knows?! If we're lucky, we might finally hit 10% in NH! Wooooooey! That'll show all those other silly candidates who are using their money to reach voters.

I new form of torture - message boarding.

[aspiringconstitutionalist]

No, that would be too antelope-like of them. They're just going to sit on the money like the lion....and maybe one day they'll swim in it like Scrooge McDuck, as kylejack says.

"No army can stop an idea who's time has come"---

Ron Paul

Look, I'm not going to be a grammar prick here, but your sig is a gross violation of two principles:

1. To quote someone else's words appropriately.
2. To give credit where credit is due.

The quote has been paraphrased from Victor Hugo as "No army can stop an idea whose time has come" which Ron Paul used... notice the correct spelling of "whose".

The original context was in "History of Crime" to which Hugo wrote "On résiste à l'invasion des armées; on ne résiste pas à l'invasion des idées." or roughly One resists the invasion of armies; one does not resist the invasion of ideas.

Sorry, I mean no offense; as a literary buff, I just thought I would throw that out there...

OK. Good to know. The symbolism was completely over my head.:D

[noztnac]

A Ron Paul/ Google alliance

I don't know if this is planned but it would dramatically increase Ron Paul's chances of winning.

I'm talking about an official endorsement of Ron Paul by Google. Imagine the Tea Party being advertised on the main Google page. Imagine every time any person goes to Google their seeing a Ron Paul ad.

Similiar things could be done with yahoo, facebook, myspace, etc.

Is anyone discussing this or planning this. It would also be a good opportunity for Google to flex its muscles and show the power of the internet vis-a-vis the mainstream media.

I'm thinking its talking about what I'm thinking the big secret is too.

The user ID that posted that video doesn't look like the official campaign to me. . .

[noztnac]

These videos with candidates heads pasted on look terrible.

[devil21]

I wish these threads would die. It was a serious discussion at first but now it's just a big joke. Not even a funny joke.

Well I'm not quoting Victor Hugo, I'm quoting Ron Paul saying it because thats what matters to me. I know Paul quoted that from Hugo, but Paul said it too, so I can quote it from Hugo or Paul or both of them, and I choose Paul. But good call on "whose." lol I think I changed my signature late one night while I was up studying or something and I guess I didn't catch it because I usually don't make like any grammar mistakes unless I just don't really care lol.

[aspiringconstitutionalist]

No, seriously guys, the big secret is still coming! The Ron Paul campaign has been putting it off for the past 8 months due to SECRET DELAYS but it's finally ready and will be announced sometime before the Rally for the Republic! I've got high up sources that KNOW THESE THINGS. Take my advice or leave it guys. THE BIG SECRET THAT WILL HELP US WIN THE IOWA CAUCUSES IS ABOUT TO BE REVEALED. STAY TUNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
