I have a couple of money raising idea's. Please let me know what you think and or how they could be improved. I also do not know the rules for a campaign, so that alone may call for them being tweeked or forgotten, we will see.
First, I read a story yesterday about a man who had had it up to his eyebrows with the current regime in Washington. He went out and bought hundreds of hellium filled balloons and tied the Declaration of Independence to them, and let them go in his city.
I thought, what a great idea for all of us to the same in regards to Dr. Paul.
I would like to offer the idea of each meet-up renting a tank of helium and every time they meet, to take balloons (really brite glow in the dark custom ones with RP info would be the best) and release them in their city.
Balloons, even custom balloons are really inexpensive. Should you use non custom ones, make them the brite ones and staple a card or flyer to each string and let them go.
There could even be a symbol on the material with prizes to the ones that find them.
If the meetups would organize these balloon releases on the same days of the month, and release enough of them, it could cause a REVOLUTION!
My second idea came to me in my sleep last night......A Raffle, each ticket would sell from between $10.00 and $25.00......do a raffle a month. The winner will get to spend the day on the campaign trail (including airfare and hotel) with Ron Paul!
I don't know about you, but I would be so thrilled to win that......and just think of the interviews that could be done after the the winner has collected their prize.
Should a reg guy off the street, or a lefty win it and go, what a great perspective they could give on Ron Paul, and would it change their vote?
Thank you for reading and considering my ideas.
