hey everyone. i was out skiing today at monarch mountain and i was riding on the lift with a stranger. noticing the large ron paul for president sticker on my helmet he asked "so i guess you're a pretty big ron paul supporter huh?" and i said "yea i've even donated to his campaign" (im 17 so this was said to shock him a bit)and he said "so what are some of his positions that you like?" and i said "well i could go on forever about this but a few are: he wants to end the war, he wants to return us to sound money so out currency is actually worth something, and he wants to switch us to free market healthcare instead of the government sponsored healthcare thats driving up prices right now" and after i finished saying the healthcare one he said "wow now that is something i could really support" so i told him "well today is supposed to be a pretty big fundraising day for him so you should go online and check him out"

then we reached the top of the lift and parted ways. but i think i may have converted another today

Actually, yours is a great story and you are very articulate. I think everyone is busy watching the numbers. So don't feel like you are being ignored.

Great job by the way.

very awesome story. another example of subtle conversions :) all it took to get this started was a sticker fellas. people are curious about dr. paul. if they figure you might know a bit on his positions, they'll come and ask you. great job!

I want to convert some folks at Ski Liberty in Pennsylvania. A rather appropriate place for Ron Paul types to go.
