Roadmap for new supporters
I think the website needs a roadmap for new supporters showing them how to get involved in the campaign. A lot of folks have been so disillusioned about politics for a long time and don't know what to do next.

We need to show some really powerful ads for Dr. Paul. I love the man and would like nothing more than to see him elected. How about some of you talented folks out there submit some ideas ....things like "I Believe in the Constitution and I Believe in Ron Paul", ...I am sure there are some great ideas out there. Things that display Strength, Integrity...all the things that ARE RON PAUL.
our leaders have got us in a mess our fault for electing people who tell us what we want to hear. then lie when they get the job. mr. paul, is honest and has morals, but it is clear to anyone that unless he comes up with something big he will not win even the gop vote. drug addiction cast taxpayers billions while we cut funding for education, soc-sec and many other programs we spend more to lock up feed, dr., drug users. ...more »
our leaders have got us in a mess our fault for electing people who tell us what we want to hear. then lie when they get the job. mr. paul, is honest and has morals, but it is clear to anyone that unless he comes up with something big he will not win even the gop vote. drug addiction cast taxpayers billions while we cut funding for education, soc-sec and many other programs we spend more to lock up feed, dr., drug users. and also spend billions to take care of their family while the user is in jail. the war on drugs has been a joke on taxpayers. our boarders cost billions to protect from cartals, thousands murdered. legalize drugs and crime in the u.s. will drop over 75%. drug cartals will crumble instantly, gangs in our towns wont be able to fund themselfs. only someone uneducated could say we need to continue dealing with it the same.. legalize it if a man decides to smoke drink or use pot its stupid but its his body. it should'nt cost txpayers billions to lock up someone just because we are msd st them. our jails are over crowdwd, with people who got arrested for a 25 dollars of drugs yet it cost txpayers billions. alcohol is the #1 cause of death in the u.s. its legal. marajana, has never killed one person, yet its illegal and you can spend years in preson for it. can anyone honestly reason with that. mr. paul, here is billions you can free up. you are the best chice for america, but your going to need to do something so diffrent it sticks in folks hearts and minds god bless you and good luck sir greg tincher

Alot of people that I talk to do not know Ron Paul, let alone what he stands for. I dont know how but people need to know who he is and his beliefs and most importantly how his beliefs will benefit them and this country. Fox news does not talk about RP enough. Sometimes he is not even included in the candidates that are running. I would love to see RP lead this country back to the way it was and away from corruption. ...more »

But it will not be done if people are still saying Ron who!

A chart with questions, that will have answers from every candidate. Possibly, the answers can be combined with videos for reference.
It will display how each one is different, and show what RP's views are. This will help people realize that RP isn't radical, just a bit different and right.
The RonPaul.com news blog is great but it doesn't always reflect Ron Paul in the best possible light, and might turn off or confuse newcomers. I'd suggest that you create a static frontpage that permanently displays the best Ron Paul material available, and transfer the blog (news) to a different page
BRINGING BACK AMERICAS RIGHTS!!! CALLED THE CONSTITUATION.
Get on as many talk shows as you can. If not Ron Paul them maybe get Mr. Wood to discuss his new book that is coming out. Have radio stations in as many areas as you can to have a young person on to tell them while they believe in Dr. Paul. If nothing else contact those 4,000 babies he delivered. NPR, Public Radio. Any celebrities who might take a stand.
Letting our friends know on facebook via your current status e.g. "I wonder how more people could get a chance to see at least one Ron Paul video"
"Amazing how the media shut out the only presidential candidate that could bring some significant change (Dr Ron Paul)"
or post some links to ron paul websites

Remind the European and Canadian and Australian media of Paul! His foreign policy of removing the bullying generates a lot of support overseas - this should be leveraged more!!
This could put pressure on the US media to become a little more neutral!

I am a graphic designer and wanted to design some creative Ron Paul T-Shirts to help out, but didn't know how to get them into the mainstream, so I created a zazzle.com store and posted them there. I have more designs to post, but you can check out what I have so far if you like... http://www.zazzle.com/cre8tivityforsale
switch who gets our tax dollars. keep big tax dollars in our small towns and cities. give the irs our local tax money. and leave the state portion alone. we wouldn't need gov support for our schools,roads,and older folks etc.. STOP BIG GOVERNMENT....
The message of Ron Paul needs to be distributed in the most efficient fashion possible. Rather than letting the media, political opponents, or any other potentially biased entity spread false information about his ideas and intentions, take the initiative to educate your fellow citizens. We live in an age where information is exchanged at an astronomical rate. Take advantage of these tools available... exploit every opportunity ...more »

We really need to rethink our strategies and alliances and stop applying 60 to 90 year old strategies to current day problems. NATO is a useless bureaucracy and the UN is an absolute corrupt organization that is not in our interests. With a modern Naval and Air force we don’t need massive troop deployments sread out around the world. If a country like China threatens military and economic control in a region like Asia ...more »
We really need to rethink our strategies and alliances and stop applying 60 to 90 year old strategies to current day problems.
NATO is a useless bureaucracy and the UN is an absolute corrupt organization that is not in our interests. With a modern Naval and Air force we don’t need massive troop deployments sread out around the world. If a country like China threatens military and economic control in a region like Asia we need to abandon old war treaties that are out dated and let countries like Japan have an offensive navel force to balance the threat. We can’t keep putting the bill for the world protection we must position ourselves to be left to pick up the pieces if need be. We can’t have welfare for able bodied people and illegal immigration. The government cannot keep demonizing the rich and making more people poor so they can get their votes. We can’t keep running around in terrorist countries trying to make them our friends that’s a big waste of money and we will be worse of then before, we need to get out of the UN and have alliances with countries that share our same security and beliefs and destroy the terrorist countries, we could use Russia against them just like we did against Germany and we would win. GET US OUT OF the UN!!!

I believe a mainstream TV ad is the ultimate force against the media bias.
There is no need to spend too much on producing it as there is plenty of footage available on youtube etc..
It will be critical to get it on air asap!
Winning the republican election is the real barrier. Once they have to give him air time it will be much easier as he can t be ignored anymore.
There must be many thousands of Ron Paul videos on youtube. Some have more than 10 or even 100 clones/copies there. This reduces the number of views per video giving the impression they are not so popular. Fans should take them down and focus, rate, comment only a few. This way he can easily get a few hundred videos with millions of viewers that can not be ignored. He would also break many records and get extra exposure ...more »

Even better and simpler - maybe to organise a "video bomb" - see next idea..

Ron Paul for President on cars/truck with web address, American Flag with Declaration of Independence - I would do this on my custom monster truck that's a daily driver - it's won at shows. Pictures per request
A website that is fully based around what RP stands for. It will contain Q&A about each major topic, and will have videos showing what he said in debates and before Congress.
Consolidating all of these thoughts will streamline new people into true conservative beliefs, allowing them to compare RP to the rest of the GOP and realize he isn't radical, just a bit different and right.
Also with last nights debate and other debates I believe most all candidates agreed with Ron Paul in one way or another. In fact, some of them are starting to sound a bit like Mr.Paul. Might be a good advertisement to split screen them.
In the next caucus ask all of the voters to fill out a quick form indicating who they will vote for. It just needs to have their name address and phone number. You can tell all of them that you suspect voter fraud and you are doing a survey. You have ALL of the voters right there in a closed area so you will be able to do this quite easily. If the numbers do not match up you now have the evidence to file charges against ...more »

If the numbers do not match up you now have the evidence to file charges against the GOP. You can do this survey at all of the next caucus states which will give you enough evidence to take it to the next level. Ron, you now must take the gloves off and do the unthinkable and bring the empire down. You only have this chance and if you don't, you will look back and wish you had.

How about REAL change..not revolution..but evolution.
Lets get on a resource based economy as opposed to a monetary based.
Who ever starts this in motion..will be the greatest leader there ever was for mankind.
To not is only scratching the surface of problems with same old problems..and useless "solutions"
Its time Folks..Can you think outside the money box???
Please give ideas on Keystone pipeline and promoting fossils fuel that we have abundant of here in the USA.
Ron, yopu need to take the gloves off and start making "SHOCK STATEMENTS" when you have national air time. All wars have been because of special interest in that region. You need to be the boy who shocked everyone by saying the emperior has no clothes on. Quit being the nice guy. People want their leaders to have a strong personality and now you need to go for the throat. When you were on the MSNBC interview and the guy ...more »
Ron, yopu need to take the gloves off and start making "SHOCK STATEMENTS" when you have national air time. All wars have been because of special interest in that region. You need to be the boy who shocked everyone by saying the emperior has no clothes on. Quit being the nice guy. People want their leaders to have a strong personality and now you need to go for the throat. When you were on the MSNBC interview and the guy asked you about cutting head start. You needed to say " I know why you are bringing this up, You ignored me in the beginning and now when you are forced to interview me, you use it to manipulate public opinion because the corporate empire basically pays you income dosen't it? If you are going to continue to ask me questions like this I am going to leave. QUIT being so nice and start telling people like it is. Tell them that we need to stop this primative behavior of death and destruction for money. Start getting mad, and walk off of a couple of interviews. Start tearing off your microphone and throwing it in the interviewers face. You need to lead with an ad about the proposed pipeline in Iran for the reason why we want to bomb them. Then go with why we are fighting now, because of big defense contracts. Tell the story about the last 5 wars and connect a big corporation to each conflict. Make this your main focus. You need to get people mad in order to change their brainwashing. You are running out of time. You do not need alot of money for advertising if you run the right "SHOCK AD" Quit being nice and passive in your debates. If you feel you are not given enough time, stop the debate in midstream and tell the announcer...I know what you are trying to do here and it's not going to work. America is pissed off and they need to see a heavy weight fight, not some polite gentle man in the ring. Yes your words are powerful but the delivery is more powerful. Show pictures of the new embassy that cost 1 billion dollars and show what 1 billion dollars would do for each American. Show how each canidate has stolen money out of our pockets. GET MAD RON!!!! Get some blood flowing.....SHOCK SHOCK SHOCK SHOCK Make your ads count!!!! I am a retired psychologist and know what I am talking about....The time for shock is NOW!

I read too often 'but he can't win', which is a result of the slanted main stream media.
I sign all my correspondence 'RON PAUL CAN WIN!' because, with his wide support from tea party to independents to OWS, he COULD prevail.
Please start an e-mail, twitter, bumper sticker, lapel pin, WHATEVER campaign to drive home the truth, that we not only like Ron Paul, but that RON PAUL CAN WIN!
