Thread: Ben Swann Seeks To Make History By Raising $1.25 Million Through KickStarter

  1. #61
    Cmon people, it's way too early for us to be slowing down like this. If you want to keep the momentum going, show that this goal is reachable!

    $#@! it, I'll go ahead and change my $35 to $100 and make sure I save the money by July 26th when it comes due, if it will help light a fire to get you all to donate to this worthy cause.

    Seriously, I know there are plenty of you who can find something to cut out to save it up for that date, but you don't have to wait until then to make your pledge, you just have to have the funds ready for when it ends and (hopefully) collects when we make goal.

    (ETA:

    Your pledge has been successfully changed for:
    Liberty is Rising Truth in Media Project
    Liberty is Rising Truth in Media Project
    by Ben Swann

    New Pledge Summary
    Amount pledged

    $100.00
    Reward

    Your name featured in the credits as an "Individual Liberty Sponsor" for one episode of "Ben Swann Full Disclosure". Also, receive a Limited Edition "Liberty is Rising" T-shirt, a Limited Edition 8.5" x 11" Personalized "Ben Swann Full Disclosure" Print, a "Liberty is Rising" Bumper Sticker and a Personalized Facebook Cover Photo thanking you for your contribution to the "Liberty is Rising" Truth in Media Project.

    The kids they dance and shake their bones,
    While the politicians are throwing stones,
    And it's all too clear we're on our own,
    Singing ashes, ashes, all fall down...

    Right now we are technically on pace to just fund it, but these things really taper off as they go on.
    But they also pick up as we get over certain barriers. I think it will pick up if we get close to the million mark.

    That interview annoyed me. I don't know what his damn problem was.

    Schiff is just jealous. He is extremely self-absorbed. No one is perfect. lol

    Not sure Ben would want to do it, but but he would probably get a huge boost he did an interview with Alex Jones.

    Alex would probably love to have him on, Ben has done some great work.

    He's already been on ALex Jones and most likely will be back again

    He does appear bitter and cynical, but he is making good objective observations at the same time.

    If Ben accepted Bitcoins directly instead of through Amazon it would be 100% pure profit.

    I don't think Ben isn't going to make it. He needs to make about $29K per day and that hasn't been happening anymore.

    Seems to me that the core of Swann fans have already made their pledges and we're having trouble building on that. Swann and his efforts seem to be widely known by those of us here and on the Daily Paul but perhaps not so much by the broader liberty movement and this is where Ron needs to step up (send email blasts which I'd think at some point he'd do) to make this happen. I'd like to think that people would be shelling money at this thing in hopes of developing better media for our bunch. Ask how much we as individuals value getting something like this going as an alt to corporate media and then that's the amount of scratch one needs to pledge if in fact this has any value at all. Anyone can bitch and complain but it's mobilization on a front like this that is one of the many cogs to building the liberty movement and Ben is the guy to get behind.
