    Exclamation Rand Paul Digital: Apps/MicroSites for Next-Gen Grassroots



    STEP 1 - Watch the Promotion Video
    STEP 2 - Pledge to Donate to the Project
    STEP 3 - Share this project with other supporters!






    As many of you are aware by now, we’ve been working on a Kickstarter project to build grassroots digital solutions to support Rand Paul for 2016. Today we are happy to announce that the project page has just gone live!

    Below is a promotion video that we ask you please share with other grassroots activists and volunteers you know in the liberty movement that support Rand Paul.


    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFpRhxypPM8

    To pledge now, or to watch the second project video and find out more about this important grassroots effort click this link.

    http://www.RandPaulDigital.com/kickstarter

    We understand that not everyone has time in their lives to make a full-time commitment to the cause, but your pledge could be the easiest way to be actively involved in a grassroots effort and support activists to help Rand Paul in 2016.

    Please know that every dollar helps to make this grassroots project to elect Rand Paul President a reality. Also, please remember that if the minimum pledge goal isn't met, this project can not be kickstarted. Every pledge, large or small, helps towards reaching this goal.

    If you have already pledged, we ask that you help spread the word about this important grassroots project to other supporters. In order to reach the statistical threshold that will help ensure this project is fully funded by the cut off date, we need your help with letting others know by sharing the promotion video and project page link.

    The contributions, support, and constructive input by many of you is nothing short of amazing. The last couple of weeks we've been in awe at how helpful and enthusiastic everyone has been to get us where we are today it is a humbling experience to see all of you pitching in. The people in the liberty movement are some of the best I have ever interacted with in my life. After the past eight years being here on RPF, I truly believe we can accomplish great things when we come together and set our mind to it.

    We hope you will be a part of this once-in-a-lifetime grassroots project to help elect Rand Paul President.

    Thank you!

    P.S. Will be giving out +Rep to project backers, post in this thread.

    I will definitely support your project! The grassroots put this movement on the map and it will be the grassroots that wins in 2016, not some ivory tower.

    Fox news:
    Foreigners are backing the grass roots organization that wants to get Rand Paul elected, to skirt campaign finance laws they are using kick starter.

    I joke but if I wasn't broke i would match you.

    Go Grassroots!
    Don't let others get you down. Not naysayers, not pretenders, not appeasers, not opportunists; none of em.

    What others do pales beside what YOU do.

    Press on! - The r3VOLution continues...

    "Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence.Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."

    ~ C.Coolidge

    Pledged 50 off the bat but sure I'll put in more as time goes by...

    Awesome to see you doing this.

    You did great work in 2012, and it was a lot of fun. I can only imagine how much greater the potential is this time with all of that experience and knowledge that you, and the rest of us, have gained.

    Will share everywhere I can, and look forward to seeing what you have planned.

    Woo-hoo!

    You are now an official backer of Rand Paul Digital: Apps/MicroSites for Next-Gen Grassroots.

    Your pledge

    $50.00
    “But let it not be said that we did nothing. Let not those who love the power of the welfare/warfare state label the dissenters of authoritarianism as unpatriotic or uncaring. Patriotism is more closely linked to dissent than it is to conformity and a blind desire for safety and security. Understanding the magnificent rewards of a free society makes us unbashful in its promotion, fully realizing that maximum wealth is created and the greatest chance for peace comes from a society respectful of individual liberty.”

    ― Ron Paul

    Oren,

    so you were the one behind FreeMe.tv - cool!

    please head over the the billboard project forum as I think that's the only close forum here besides vent and HT. Have an idea that builds on that.

    we really should lock down the grassroots activism section more.

    Hi Suzu, sorry it's been a hectic couple of days and these first 72 hours after going live is going to be a critical time for promotion, ideally we would like to raise 20-30% of the funding by Friday night. The early part and late part of the a fundraiser requires the most attention to promotion activities. If it's okay, will touch base this weekend?

    Same here. Make FreeMe.tv Your top project. So many of us totally loved that! It is REALLY EFFECTIVE!!!

    Bit financially uncertain now. Do plan to donate. Will not be right away.

    On the domain name, what about the base domain: .org .net ... ==> Free.me <== Free.xxx would generate traffic just on peeps guessing domain names. See if you can get rights for the RP calender just so peeps don't feel ripped off and bail.

    other possibilities...

    Pledged.
    Inspired by US Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, this site is dedicated to facilitating grassroots initiatives that aim to restore a sovereign limited constitutional Republic based on the rule of law, states' rights and individual rights. We seek to enshrine the original intent of our Founders to foster respect for private property, seek justice, provide opportunity, and to secure individual liberty for ourselves and our posterity.


    A police state is a small price to pay for living in the freest country on earth.

    Posted about this on BodyBuilding and a pro-legalization site, I know Poet posted on a couple of Rand Paul sites including DP/PL. Need others to help to post on other forums/sites such as those geared to MMA fans or other sites where there may be pro-Rand Paul supporters. Thanks!

    For those that have already pledged, my heart felt thank you!




    For those of you that can't afford to donate or are waiting for the next paycheck remember that Kickstarter does not process donations right away.

    It's a pledge based system that only processes funds, if and only if, the project becomes fully funded by the deadline. If it doesn't then no money is exchanged and we won't be able to work on these projects, and everyone will be sad.

    I ask those of you that have not already pledged yet and/or have limited means to at least consider making a $2 pledge right now. This early on into the fundraising campaign, momentum is the most important factor. The more total "backers" there are the more others will be willing to also pledge and increases likelihood the target will be met by the deadline.

    If everyone on forums with a Stand with Rand tag donates $50 each right now, the snowball effect will have a huge impact over the course of the next 14 days, but for those that can only do $2 that's fine as well. Of course, if you can do more than that, it would be greatly appreciated towards getting us closer to the goal and making this happen!

    Become a backer today!
