You know I had a thread on this and I kept bumping it and it mostly got ignored. Ron Paul will never win if grassroots don't start CANVASING. Waving signs and putting up sign everywhere isn't going to do crap compared to canvasing.

I agree 100%.

Now people know the name, but not who Ron Paul is. It's our job to tell them....

They need to canvas every single day they can up until their State's primary.

We need to do both. You wouldn't believe how many times I've been telling people about Ron Paul and they say "ohhh the guy from the signs" and then they're interested.

Signs plant seeds, one on one conversations bring it into fruition.

DITTO. How about a good plan or official site that we can promote. The site should include kits, info and etc.

meetup.com join a group in your area and go at it. Centralizing this will not work.

If I may add:


Chatting to other Ron Paul members about issues (lack of news, etc.) on this forum which are at most marginally productive DOES NOT get Ron Paul elected.

If I may add:

You mean people who post on here 100 times a day are not true patriots! How dare you.

Here is what I am doing while at "work"

I write emails to people with links to Youtube videos, mostly the stop dreaming one.

I go to newspapers websites and on the Political pages I put a comment that I support Ron Paul.

Today I wrote an email to the Gov of South Carolina

Let's keep at it.

I just uploaded a canvassing workshop file to our Ron Paul Meetup. Feel free to download it -- I made it available to everyone.

See "Canvas Workshop"

It is *excellent* and written by Michelle Northrup. Michelle gave permission for unlimited copying and distribution of this booklet to Ron Paul groups only.

HOW TO REACH 14 MILLION VOTERS IN 14 DAYS - FOR FREE! Some call it door-to-door. Some call it precinct walking or canvassing. I call it How To Win This Election, Guaranteed, - On The Cheap! 1. 99% of us need the exercise. Walking is healthy and fun. If you don't believe me, just ask you favorite doctor. Seriously,… ask him yourself in person at the next Ron Paul Rally. Please don't call him at home. He very busy and won't be there. 2. Nothing is as effective as a personal endorsement. Whom are you more likely to believe, a friend or a TV commercial? A neighbors sincere advice or a Hollywood producer? A paid spokesperson or a volunteer? 3. It's FREE! It requires no gasoline, no car, no appointment, and no ones approval but your own. If you don't have the money to pay for 100 fliers, just call your Meetup Coordinator. That's all it takes. 4. Do it for your own personal self esteem. When this once in a lifetime opportunity is over, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you contributed your best effort to support your hero, change the course of history, and get your country back.
