- everamzah, on 10/11/2007, -3/+22I'm so doing this.
- TVisdoG, on 10/11/2007, -2/+14Please do. But please do so in a respectful and legal manner. Mass vandalism of public and/or private property by Ron Paul supporters will do nothing to help raise positive awareness for his campaign amongst those who either do not know who he is or remain doubtful of his credibility.
- smackywentz, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6We've got these big billboards here in Dallas that say George Bush. I wonder what it might be like if on the fourth they said Ron Paul?
- dikdug, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9Right, I will certainly do it in a legal and respective way. Otherwise, we get "blowback." ;)
- PATSCRU, on 10/11/2007, -17/+4blowback already happened......Ron Paulites are like scientologists or jehovah's witnesses in my book, relentless, annoying, and possessing a hatred for known truths. I'm glad the number of ron paul spam accounts outnumbers his actual supporters, or else i might be upset about the number of people spamming the streets.
- shiftt, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9One of the reasons money plays such an important role in campaigns is because it pays for airtime (advertising), and Ron Paul doesn't have the kind of financing that Hillary or Obama have. It's up to the people to build awareness, and if we want our country to change then we need to get off our asses.
It doesn't matter if you want to build awareness with posters or blog posts, the point is to get the message out there so everyone can see it. As much as Digg users love Ron Paul, we represent a very small fraction of the voting population.- wonderboy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4The best form of advertisement is word of mouth.
- joaob, on 10/11/2007, -2/+20Plaster it Everywhere**
** - Except for in Boston - AnObserver, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Remember, you are acting as an agent for Ron Paul. If your conduct is construed in a negative manner, Ron Paul might lose eventual votes. As an agent, it is your responsibility to ensure the highest level of success for Ron Paul. Some people will ignore the message if given by a flamboyant messenger. All Meetups should take care to ensure that all members behave in a productive manner.

Or ninja chop your head. - redneckblues, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1This message will self-destruct in 5 seconds.

- fistofblood, on 10/11/2007, -13/+2Ron Paul would make a horrible president. If he gets elected you can forget about Medicaid, social security, public schools, gay rights, etc. I know this will get dugg down by all the Ron Paulites, but hopefully a few will get to read it.
Believe it or not, but Ron Paul is pro-business and anti-working class.- d0lver, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Can you tell me how exactly Ron Paul is pro-business and anti-working class?
- eksai, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7Medicaid? Excellent, its an out of control system and has raised medical costs all across the board. Someone poor who could afford healthcare w/o it, is now ***** if he doesn't qualify for medicaid
Social Security? Excellent, I'm 23, there is no way I'll ever see a cent from it..yet I get a large chunk of my paycheck taken out for it
Public Schools? Its a state issue. The goverment no child left behind is actually doing more harm than good, it punished the schools that actually do need the money, and rewards schools that are already doing good. And this causes teachers to slack on education and give better grades in order to improve rank.
Gay rights? When has this guy ever said anything about banning gays from anything?
Pro Business? have you looked at other candidates lately? You know the guys who are getting MILLIONS from corporations. Do you think the corporations are being generous? Or are they expecting something in return?
You should educate yourself on the deep meaning behind the issues, instead of falling for the old 30 second sound byte. "SOCIAL HEALTH CARE!!!" sounds good on paper, but if you educate yourself you'll see how much worse it'll amke things
- Reponere, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4I'd be on this if I weren't flying that day. If anyone wants some decent quality sticker printouts, I guess Kinkos would be the best solution.
Is there anywhere else we could go to get bulk printouts for cheap? - spongy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4This has been buried, someone please re-submit it.
This is such a great idea it needs to reach the front page.- wonderboy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I would, but you can't submit the same link more than once. Maybe someone could write a blog article and then post it.
- doubledoh, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I know this may sound stupid, but how do you know if it's been buried or not? Where does it say?
- spongy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Story re-submitted here.
http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/Ron_Paul_overnight_revolution - straywolf, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Since when is America a SOCIALIST country where we expect everything to be handed to us on a silver platter? Fistofblood...you have no f'n CLUE what this country used to be and SHOULD be once again.
