I think this might be an idea that COULD potentially get media coverage if done in a widespread, coordinated way, and if it is publicized on social media enough that it forces traditional media to cover the story.
I propose we remind the American people what propelled Rand Paul to the national stage and coined the hashtag #StandWithRand, by staging a nationwide reenactment of his 13 hour filibuster of CIA Director Brennan's nomination over the issue of Drones, wearing Don't Drone Me, Bro! shirts or full on Rand costume, curly locks and all, if desired. Stand in a public place where you will not be removed by Police, and recite the full transcript of his filibuster, end to end, streaming or filming and uploading to youtube. Id be more than happy to put together a landing page where we can compile and embed all videos from this stunt.
13 hours is a long time to stand and speak, but if Rand can do it, socanSHOULD we.
I think this would show enormous dedication to the idea of Liberty and opposition of Tyranny. We could do this on the anniversary of his legendary filibuster, which I believe would be Feb 27th. It would obviously be better to do it during the day, rather than through the night, for better exposure. Too late for NH, but would be historically significant and an appropriate gesture to Rand for all the sacrifices he has made to preserve freedom and liberty in the US, despite overwhelming odds against him.
Thoughts? Could we pull this off?
