Trying to think of ways to canvass Democratic support for Paul? I've got the idea, and I think it's a good one. Here it is:
Hold your own debate! Are you planning to put an ad in the newspaper? Make half of it into an invitation of Democratic voters, liberals, muslims to join you in a 'political discussion'. You can either rent out a place, or hold it in a park, or even on your own lawn. Make posters with relevant information, but not specifically Ron Paul.
"Did you know that your vote doesn't count?"
"The Democratic Convention has withdrawn all of our delegates!"
"What Republican can we vote for that would be our second best choice for President?"
Probably a tenth of the people there will know about this. If you can get a few nearby Paul supporters to join the discussion, that's great. Quickly mention that you think the second best choice for Democratic voters in Michigan is Ron Paul. Explain his anti-war views, and you're set.
For Muslim and liberal voters, just explain his economic policy, tax plans, and views on individual rights, and you're set.
Depending on the location, this can be as cheap as the ad+concessions/seating, and vastly more effective than just the ad itself. Make sure to mention the concessions within the ad, of course. :D
