You must spread some reputation around before giving it to PolicyReader again

I sure hope the "realists" are just trolling, because self-fulfilling prophecy is a very real thing. If you believe you can achieve something, then sometimes you can overcome some really great odds, but if you jsut concede that something is impossible or unlikely, then well, there's no doubt you're only going to contrbiute to that prophecy.

Moreover, the stakes are too great to EVER give up. We're not in this because we thought this would be easy, this movement exists to fight for what is right, one battle at a time.

+rep spot on!

Momentum builds and wanes, and we make it happen. The media tries to "shape" the race but as long as the grassroots ignores them then we have every reason to ignore them. Only by listening to them do we grant them the ability to effect us (the masses may listen, but we've built all of this without popular support or understanding and there's no reason to give up now just because it didn't suddenly get easier before the end)

Sorry to go off topic, but to the OP, where did you get that Captain America shirt, it's badass.

One star?

Don't worry. I 5 stared this thread!

"1) Veteran's march on the RNC <--HUGE impact"

This I don't like.

The other stuff, well, California is the biggest state. It should have the biggest group. New York also has a big group which has been productive.

I know there are some competents there. Haven't seen Justin Page Wood here a lot recently, but he has skills.

California is mostly Winner Take All by CD. Think in terms of CDs. Try to win one or two or three, etc. Does the CD have a major Uni? Is the Uni in session on Jun 5? Take a poll - have robbie / rp08orbust help - by CD. Determine where the support is.
Develop plans to get people to the polls on that day. Golden State can play acoustic outside of various precincts. Get other famous rock stars to do the same thing. Pay them if need be. Announce beforehand that these are concerts, they're taking place at a certain time and a certain place and get that information out there. There you go, your targeted audience is where you want them, when you want them there. Make sure they go inside and vote.

HUGE +REP to the OP!! Off to work, so I'll have to catch up on this thread later, but I'm tellin' ya he has MORE than a decent chance to win the nomination, even with the media silence.

I've said it before, but I live in Minnesota and was a delegate to my county convention, where EVERY single delegate AND alternate to BOTH the county and district conventions, as well as the chair and vice chair of the county GOP, are OVERT Ron Paul supporters.

This isn't over, by a long shot!

There is nothing wrong with continuing to bust your ass...but there is also nothing wrong with being realistic.

And constantly spamming every single political thread on Yahoo, Google, Digg, MSN.com, etc with "Ron Paul is WINNING!" does not help Ron Paul even 0.0001%. It actually HURTS in terms for getting people to listen to what you have to say.

Too many of you seem to think there is no middle ground between "Ron Paul is WINNING! He is a shoe in right now!" and being a troll. And that is completely and utterly ridiculous. And the fact of the matter is...primaries do NOT allow stealth delegates nearly as easily. They just don't. Certainly not Romney's delegates. Maybe Santorum's in the pas since he was SO disorganized. But the last couple wins might have gotten him to finally get his act together on that level.

Ron Paul 2012!!!!!

You're trolling for Romney. I'm a little lost at what the difference is.
