10. A Congressional Candidate NOW in Iowa: we still desperately need a
Congressional candidate in Iowa. Anyone over 25 years old can collect 50
valid signatures of registered voters and pay a fee of about $100 and be
on the ballot for congress the Iowa primary next year. At that point,
the big FCC licensed radio stations, like WHO, must run the candidate's
ad verbatim, without alteration or censorship - and they must run the
ads during the programs as specified.

Checkout in each state what is needed to be a candidate.

I had to collect 2,000 signatures in Mass in '92 (I got 3,000 to cover invalid signatures). But I didn't have to pay any money, although $100 is actually not much to ask for.

I was able to get 50 signatures in two hours standing in front of a grocery store.

I would advise getting 100 sigs in Iowa to be on the safe side.

Not to discredit a very clever strategy, but isn't there something a bit ironic about using what is essentially public financing for campaign advertising to promote a candidate who would likely eliminate all funding of national broadcast mediums? Not that I think it's a bad idea or anything...

Very interesting. Thanks for the info.

Not to mention that if you happen to get elected, you would be another Ron Paul politician fighting for the people :)
