**NEW - Just Released - Ron Paul Commercial by eLIB3RTY!**

[ghemminger]

From the maker of A New Hope, with one million YouTube views, emerges a new national commercial for Ron Paul.

**SaveOurGeneration**



Cable t.v. spots in the Major Media Markets and the Primary States are ready for us to purchase.... We are ready to go....

BUT new FEC roadblocks will prevent us from doing another Trevor.....

We have 2 options:

A. A Buyout and Takeover situtation from official HQ

B. Pulling a LLepard (having one single source of funding) to get this commercial off and running.


Let's make sure this SPOT is the one that puts the final nail in the coffin of the Neocons!!! - And give our Revolution the National Spotlight it deserves!!!

Man, I hate quicktime.

[hard@work]

Wow Ghem! That's great stuff! You still will dine on shoe on inauguration day though bud.

Well then, let's keep this sucker up top eh?

[justatrey]

Great ad. Thanks to eLIB3RTY. Too bad most of us are too angry at FOX at the moment to truly appreciate this.

pffft, don't underestimate the power of rechannelled passion.

[0zzy]

I WUB IT! IT IS TRUE!

I didn't think you guys were telling the truth for a bit, and here it is!

Hrm, I'ma watch it 100 times and give my judgment.

[0zzy]

I thought this was going to be an official ad ?

[Ron LOL]

Impressive ad.

[jake]

beauty.

[yongrel]

Not too shabby.

[ghemminger]

I thought this was going to be an official ad ?

Everything is so fluid - I will let you know as things develop..

[LibertyEagle]

Why are people being directed to SaveOurGeneration.com instead of www.RonPaul2008.com and 877-RON-PAUL???

[mwkaufman]

Especially when SaveOurGeneration.com isn't up? Someone should be on it.

[RonPaulVolunteer]

Man, I hate quicktime.

I love it....

[Jeremy]

Goodness, it's 1 AM. I'll wait 'till tomorrow to watch

This is in the works so thanks for the comment!

[Ethek]

Great Ad

[adpierce]

Bumpity Bump Bump

[garrettwombat]

somebody youtube... i cant use quicktime

[LibertyEagle]

This is in the works so thanks for the comment!

What does "it's in the works" mean? By that, are you saying that the saveourgeneration.com website is going to be changed over to the official campaign website and phone number, or what?

[RonPaulVolunteer]

And Hope Anthem is available too.... free....

[MadViking10]

Awesome...Lets get it on the idiot box.

[LibertyEagle]

Goodness, it's 1 AM. I'll wait 'till tomorrow to watch

It's only 30 seconds.

[ladyliberty]

Excellent!

[Duckman]

Love it!

[pacelli]

Looking pretty good up there G. Hemminger, you pulled that off perfectly :)

Thanks for the video too! I think some grassroots help could be secured for this if we can get it on Fox News & CNN. This is seriously high quality, dear god.

[AlexAmore]

Nice commercial!!!!

[hard@work]

blimp

[Alabama Supporter]

I like it. How much would it cost to run a nationwide ad on Fox or CNN? It seems liike if everyone around the country saw it they would think RP could win.

[robert4rp08]

Holy crap that gave me goosebumps. Nice job!

[Troyhand]

Love it. Spread it Nationwide campaign.
Can't wait to see the website their promoting.
www.saveourgeneration.com still under construction

[Shatterhand]

Well, it's a million times better than the campaign's first NH ad.

I agree with him most of the time, I really do. :eek:

[0zzy]

uploading to YouTube. Wait for me, I want to have a popular YouTube video! :P

if you are reading this you now have a sacred duty to keep this up and above the fox threads until they die down. And, you must stay up longer as I need to go to be soon.

Do it!

blimp!

If you know, could you give some more detail about the FEC roadblocks, and what effect they're closing shop at the end of the year will have, and what the up and down sides for choosing option A or B would be. Thanks.

PS something tells me that website's gonna really hook in the new voters. I'm getting chills

They're probably being hacked by Fox News agents after all of our phone calls.

[tomveil]

That is fucking awesome.

Wow.

[BudhaStalin]

That was awesome. Is this the same ad that will be airing nation-wide?

[ronpaul4pres]

I suppose any good commercial evokes strong emotions in its viewers, and this commercial made me sad. I really like the commercial (very professionally done), but I can't separate the sadness it evoked from how I feel about the commercial itself. Am I alone in that feeling?

I very much look forward to the website, saveourgeneration.com (http://saveourgeneration.com/). The message seems incomplete without it.

[phoenixrising]

great job-- better than the one hq has now too ;)

p.s. this forum: ask & u shall receive" {{utube vs quicktime-- in a FLASH!!!!}} 2 funny

[max]

why cant HQ develop powerful, emotional commercials like this?????

[wisconsinite]

bump

[Benaiah]

ummmmm, OK. I thought the campaign was going to do an ad-buy for 10 million dollars and blitz America with this commercial?

Now you're telling us that the grassroots has to raise money to put this on TV?



The campaign has probably only spent 5-10 million this quarter. They started the quarter with 5 million on hand and we gave them 18 million. When are they going to spend the 13-18 million dollars that they are sitting on?

[rollingpig]

nice ad overall, not the best quality though, especially the part with OP talking about the national debt, is it shot in a basement??

[chewbacca]

Glad a lot of people like it. Personally tho it looks like people standing in front of a projector. ITs still much better than most of ron pauls stuff but for a guy with 19 million dollars I would expect nothing but the absolute best production values.

[LibertyEagle]

I hate to say it, but I don't think this is that good. It seems very choppy and staged to me.

[EvilEngineer]

love it

[Man from La Mancha]

I hate to say it, but I don't think this is that good. It seems very choppy and staged to me.Thats usual.:p

[RonPaulVolunteer]

Not his best work...

Check out Hope Anthem... the song dedicated to Ron Paul...

[Ronin]

[Scott Wilson]

I like this ad. The message is loud, clear and concise.

If the Ron Paul supporters can up a blimp surely we can get this screened all over the place.

[jorlowitz]

ELiberty's done by far the best work for the campaign. But this ad had a little bit of an 80's horror movie feel to it. I think the shadows on the bluescreen came out a little too dark. It gives a few of the speakers a zombified look. It ties together really nicely at the end, though, and the script is solid. It's not easy to fit a worthwile message in 27 seconds.

[0zzy]

People actually don't think this ad looks good? weird.

80's horror movie, that's exactly what i felt. hope it's in a better quality viewing on TV.

[defcreative]

I think the production quality is actually very good. I also like the choice of using a lot of contrast (light and dark) as it garners a larger emotional response from the viewer.

I think its excellent!

[greendiseaser]

nm.
i get it.
i'm drunk.
:D

[Scott Wilson]

bump

[all J's in IL for RP]

I like the production value. Very professional looking. The silhouetted revolutionaries superimposed on more revolutionaries didn't work for me. Confusing imagry; too much going on. Combine this with the fact that we're required to read a couple of rather longish phrases towards the end sharing screen time with these vibrant visuals and you have imagery overload.

The message is spot on for a targeted ad toward 30 and under programing.

[Troyhand]

I'm thinking this wasn't the only commercial made. It looks like the first for the upcoming website. There may be others. Hope so.

Thanks - The production crew did all the work - we just said our lines - and waited for a few hours

This can't be like the blimp...Either HQ has to run with it or a big individual donars have to pick it up and run with it.

[ghemminger]

If you know, could you give some more detail about the FEC roadblocks, and what effect they're closing shop at the end of the year will have, and what the up and down sides for choosing option A or B would be. Thanks.

That's what the lawyers are saying - they may clamp down on blimp type fundraising...

[ghemminger]

I think its excellent!

This wasn't a greenscreen - but actually a projector was shot at us very bright as we went through our lines. It was really cold - and the studio had some audio issues...

This was privately funded - I didn't know that at the time. We are spending our own money to get this thing together....

[Benaiah]

You came on here a few weeks ago and said that the campaign was going to air Eliberty's ad nationwide, and spend 10 million doing so.


Was that made up?

[tron paul]

Pump this all the way up before the haterz and deniers can burry it:

[gang]

Wow. Simply awesome.
By its massage one of the best ads I've seen by now.

[jrich4rpaul]

Oh my goodness.

That was amazing.

But what's with linking to SaveOurGeneration? Shouldn't it be RonPaul2008?

[jrich4rpaul]

Please put the YouTube link in the original post

[thuja]

really great! when will it be on television?

[walt]

It's missing the word President. Otherwise it rules.

[Paulinista4TW]

Hated it the first watching. Loved it the second.

[AdamT]

RonPaul2008 and 877-RON-PAUL should be on there. There is no reason to distract people to a different site.

Okay...so, did the producers have a plan to sell the rights to this to the PCC, or something else?

PCC? What do you mean?

[LibertyEagle]

PCC? What do you mean?

The Ron Paul campaign, George.

[ghemminger]

Okay...so, did the producers have a plan to sell the rights to this to the PCC, or something else?

I believe the producers originally intended to do a Trevor type of thing but after consulting with Attorneys - This engenders a lot of liability. We are working on selling this project to the HQ or having a LLepard situation develop

[antiwardoc]

The Jan 2nd meeting in Iowa targetting vets would be a great place to roll this out.

It would bring a lot of press and let some of the air out of McCain.

Ron Paul to Honor Veterans at 'Stronger America' Rally

Presidential contender Ron Paul will hold a rally Wednesday, January 2 at 7 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom, Hotel Fort Des Moines. Dr. Paul will be joined by members of Veterans for Paul, including Rolling Thunder co-founder John Holland, as he speaks about his plan for a stronger America and his foreign policy.

They can ask the vets there if they like the new ad - use them as a focus group. That way they don't have to commit to showing it, but it might still get some press coverage.

Can you ping someone about this idea -- AT THE CAMPAIGN. I would hate for good ideas like this never see the light of day.

Can anyone faciliate this at all?

This video has been submitted to Jgreenspan, BDumas, Holly and fowarded to the campaign a week ago.

[drdamwi]

I would have liked the wording better as follows:

Ron Paul WILL stop the war
Ron Paul WILL stop the spending
Ron Paul WILL save our generation...
Vote Ron Paul for President.

instead of "Help Ron Paul..."
