I wanted to check popular support before going to the campaign. Should the campaign hire this energetic and persuasive woman shown at about 1:40 of this video as the official campaign spokesperson?

Please post when you vote to bump the poll.

If I am not mistaken, this woman is a leader in the Triad's Ron Paul groups. I think she would be an excellent, across the board, choice for spokesperson.

I COMPLETELY AGREE!

I tried contacting here months ago, never heard back - she is a great resource and well spoken, and she has a certain vibe about her that speaks volumes.

She needs to BE OUT THERE MUCH MUCH MORE!!!!

http://youtube.com/watch?v=FG2PUZoukfAYeah, I like her a lot. She is articulate and persuasive and obviously very bright. I think it's a great idea and frankly, the fact that she is of african decent is a big plus. I would love to see her speaking for the campaign.

Yes, saw here and originally thought that she was very sharp and articulate.
Being a strong black woman she will deliver a broader message that we need.
She is very well spoken with a great outlook on our future.

Me too. I saw her in an earlier UTube vid and thought she was fantastic. I was excited to see her in the Iowa infomercial. She has a presence on the camera that draws me in.

I approve all these comments.

We need more women on board. I liked the lady when I saw her the first time.

Today my wife came around to Dr. Paul. It has been hard to convince her, but she is now on board. How do I know? She just told me Dr. Paul is going to be on Meet the Press Sunday. A week ago she would not have told me.

This is the second time this week she has mentioned Dr. Paul.

12-20-2007, 08:56 AM

The first time I saw this video I thought that she got the message across with a positive attitude that couldn't be ignored. I assume that speech was off the cuff, since it looks like a rally, which makes it even better.

Also, I hate to say it, mostly because RP's (grassroots) campaign has already broken so many so called 'traditional rules' when gaining its massive momentum; but campaigns need non-(white males). They need publicly visible women and non-whites participating, especially if you're a Republican.

The way I see it, she has has the talent (based on the 2 videos) and also happens to be an attractive, black female. I don't know why she doesn't have the job already. Heck, they could even make her press secretary when he wins :)

12-20-2007, 10:12 AM

Aaaa, I don't really think so,,

What qualifications does she have? all she did was say how much she loves ron Paul. Do you think she will be able to stand up to the scrutiny of a pannel of interviewers and media. I think in choosing a spokesman you have to evaluate if they will stand up to the pressure and be rigth for the job.

all she did was enthouastically say why we all like Ron Paul.

What makes her qualified????
She is charismatic, intelligent, articulate and persuasive - what more do you want?

Maybe not THE media spokesman, but the campaign should hire her for something with the campaign. Let her talk in NH or Iowa. She's good in front of the camera and she sticks to message. Thats all you really need.

Bush's press secretary denied the Russian claim that the planned US missile bases in Eastern Europe were like the Cuban Missile Crisis--even though she had no idea what the Cuban Missile Crisis was.

It is not rocket science.

The official campaign coordinator for RP in Columbia, SC is an African-American female who is very nice! She is also very well-spoken. Her name is Gloria.

Since she is already an official employee, it may be easier to move her up through the ranks-- and bring in this lovely lady from the video as well, for good measure!

Problem: Anytime I see this woman, all issues are forgotten and everything goes to gaga.

I'm not so sure about the exact title, but she should be offered as much of a public role as she's willing to accept. If the campaign doesn't sponsor her efforts, we can!

I'm pleasantly surprised we (on the forum) have protected her privacy while publicizing at the same time.

So, I have no hope that they would contact this woman. I mean, its been on their site - and they know about her. So, they have not implemented her for whatever reason.
