    What I Learned from 16 months Running Rand Paul Digital

    What I Learned from 16 months Running Rand Paul Digital
    By Vincent Harris

    I remember being so nervous the first time I met Senator Rand Paul after being hired on his campaign to run digital operations. An hour later though, as I walked out of the meeting, I was more excited than ever. Here was a candidate who wanted to run a different kind of campaign and who espoused a message that would reach my generation. He professed to be a candidate that aimed to embrace digital into every aspect of communications, field, voter contact, and message. This was a candidate who led on technology policy, understood the power of the internet, and was beloved by those in Silicon Valley.

    While stories have already begun being written about what “went wrong” in our campaign (many of which are just blatantly false, sourced with anonymous people with axes to grind), I want to take time to write about something that went so right.

    Is that related to orenbus Rand Paul Digital project? Did the campaign take over his project?
    "Let it not be said that we did nothing."-Ron Paul

    "We have set them on the hobby-horse of an idea about the absorption of individuality by the symbolic unit of COLLECTIVISM. They have never yet and they never will have the sense to reflect that this hobby-horse is a manifest violation of the most important law of nature, which has established from the very creation of the world one unit unlike another and precisely for the purpose of instituting individuality."- A Quote From Some Old Book

    I don't know. I helped orenbus try to get it off the ground but the kickstarter failed and then everything kinda disappeared, including orenbus.

    eta: afaik, Vincent Harris is not orenbus (Jack).

    No. This is from Vincent Harris and the official campaign.

    I'm really glad he wrote this.
    “I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul

    good read, enjoyed the digital side of the campaign, except the crappy quality livestreams. Thanks, Vincent, for all you did.
