Fox or Anniversary bomb?

SwordOfShannarah · 01-24-2008, 11:59 PM

I've seen excitement about two fund raising days (money bombs) for Ron Paul.

One is an anti Fox money bomb and the other is to celebrate the 51st anniversary of Ron and Carol Paul's wedding by giving them $51 on the first of February.

I'm thinking we should do the $51 money bomb on the 1st and then pick a later date for the Fox Bomb. One, we won't get another chance at their anniversary (but the FOX bomb could be anytime) and Two, it's great that they have been together so long and shows that they are good people who believe in one another and their family. So I'm partial to the anniversary fund raiser.

But we need a vote! So please choose one or the other or none of the above. Please vote!! I'm probably going to move on this one so if you want to help decide now is the time!

Do both on the same day.

ANNIVERSARY BOMB! The Fox one will be spun to make supporters look bad, in the same fashion that November 5th was. Let's prove the mainstream media wrong and show some class.

I will support either money bomb, but I would like to add that we need to bring in money before Feb. 1st in order for the campaign to use it on Super Tuesday.

Therefore, I would also like to propose supporting my signature below.

That sounds like the logical solution. I'm excited about the Fox rebellion money bomb potential but it needs more time to fully mature. But I guess the counter argument could be that if it's after super-Tuesday we risk loosing all enthusiasm if Feb 5th is a disappointment.

We need a moneybomb before the end of the month.

Which is why I proposed this Debate-Game moneybomb for TODAY

To stay on-topic, the anniversary bomb is good, and the Fox bomb is equally good. Do both, just do the Fox one later I guess.

You should have made a "both" option, just spread them out.

I vote for the anniversary moneybomb, hands down. I was anti anything prior to Super Tuesday but this would be a perfect exception to that. I'd frame it more as an anniversary gift than anything else, it'd be a great way to thank Dr. Paul for everything he has done for us, it would be a positive for them personally, it's win-win all around. My $0.02.

I chose NoMoreFox simply because of the ability to make great YouTube videos to inform people.

The Anniversary simply doesn't have the ability to go viral as one that is for a cause.
