~~ Ron Paul - A Call To Action ~~
2nd Amendment Nationwide Ad Campaign
Ron Paul and his "Hope For America" Campaign is really SIZZLING!! How about his poll numbers at 33%, according to Fox News, after the most recent Republican debate?! Also, the fact that he raised more money over the Labor Day weekend, then all other GOP candidates combined -- receiving over $100,000 at a party/fundraiser in the swanky Highland Park, Texas, alone!
But friends, there is no time to rest -- we must take our campaign strategy to the next level and make Ron Paul, the seasoned Statesman, a more highly-visible candidate, bringing integrity back to our White House. As a leading advocate for freedom and a strong stance on the preservation of our 2nd Amendment -- this belief alone sets Dr. Paul apart from all other candidates.
Based on Dr. Paul's "Project Freedom", we have created an ad campaign that will spotlight his views. The reason we have chosen a 2nd Amendment theme is because, if you remember back to the 2000 George Bush election, it was the Pro-2nd Amendment voters who carried him into office. Appropriately, it was these same voters who carried the Republicans into Congress in the 1994 mid-term
elections. That group has grown significantly in numbers over the past seven years, and they can NOT be overlooked. We believe that we can count on this segment of voters to know a Pro-2nd Amendment-friendly candidate when confronted with one, and those voters will follow thru with that recognition all the way to the ballot box.
The bottom line is this: WE HAVE 4 MONTHS UNTIL THE PRIMARIES. Voters are looking for a Candidate of character and moral values that they can support. Not only does Dr. Paul have the credentials and an impeccably flawless track record of 20 years of service as a Texas Congressman, he is also well equipped with the leadership skills to tackle the tough issues that face our country, to become our next President in 2008.
You may recall that Obama had 'Obama-girls' and Hillary had 'Hillary-girls'. Well, its time for Ron to have 'Ron's Resistors'. Since Dr. Paul is Pro-2nd Amendment, we have designed a print ad campaign that features a very clear Pro-2nd Amendment message. All ads will be clean, tasteful, classy, shockingly-appealing and inviting. (We're not interested in ads which are anything otherwise.) The Pro-2nd Amendment voter crosses a wide range of people
in many cultures, both men and women.
We have already gotten this campaign off the ground, thanks to several generous supporters who have stepped up with contributions along with their time and expertise on the ad work / layout. NOW WE NEED YOUR HELP WITH FINANCIAL DONATIONS FOR THE ADVERTISING COST. 100% will go towards this Ron Paul Pro-2nd Amendment Campaign and may be tax deductible (please check with your tax consultant). We believe this Campaign will be a huge success and we plan to continue, with several other ads in the works.
This request is being sent out nationwide, to as many individuals and Meetup Organizers as we can possibly reach. The Meetup Organizers and Groups are doing a tremendous job all across the nation. We must get focused and united. Together, we can make the difference as to who resides at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue!
HOW CAN YOU HELP? Specifically, we want to commit to running an ad at least six (6) times in the next four months, and we currently have funds in hand for two of the six ads. If everyone who reads this message and each Meetup Group would consider making a minimum donation of $50, we would have this campaign cinched. (If there is an excess of donations, we will move on to the next most popular magazine and begin ads there.)
IT IS TIME TO PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR BELIEFS ARE. If you are a RON PAUL Constitutional Supporter, please consider being a part of this very important campaign in any way, and for any dollar amount that you can afford, and as soon as you can. We believe that we are doing what we have been called to do, and we MUST move forward. We welcome your support.
All 2ND Amendment Ad Campaign Donations may be sent to:

FYI to ALL
YES, INDEED, THIS IS A VERY LEGITIMATE *RON PAUL 2ND AMENDMENT AD CAMPAIGN* CURRENTLY IN THE MAKING!
I've given my e-mail address if anyone wishes to reach me for further information. I do not wish to give my entire name over the web. Nor will I put out personal information regarding the ad campaign.
As I originally stated, I do not know the tax ramifications. That is not my concern. My concern is getting the ads out in front of pro-2nd Amendment readers ASAP, and that is what we are working diligently behind the scenes to achieve.
Our first ad will hit in a November issue of THE most popular over-sized magazine on the stands. It is typically a b/w-ad magazine with very few color ads. However, we are running color ads to get a higher visibility. Anyone who reads gun/ammo magazines knows EXACTLY which magazine I'm speaking of.
Yes, Dr. Paul did ask for people to take a lead and DO SOMETHING! This was posted in a Meetup Group that I belong to:
=========
In a recent Ron Paul Prayer Warriors conference call, Pastor Chuck Baldwin asked Ron Paul directly what he would like us to pray for. Among his several responses, the following is what was on Ron Paul's heart:
----------
Pray for his Campaign.
Pray for leaders in each state to take a stand on the following issues:
a: Second amendment
b: Pro Life
c: Home School movement
d: Fiscal Responsibility
--------
=========
...so, WE DID SOMETHING! And that is how I got where I am today.
If you have further questions, ideas, comments or complaints, you may certainly feel free to contact me at the e-m address given in the original post.
Thanks again to everyone who is contributing with this effort.
THANK YOU FOR DOING SOMETHING!!

Caution and Recommendation
No way is this donation tax deductable.
The claim that it could be, worries me because it indicates either a lack of knowledge or a disregard for truth. No personal offence meant, but I've already been ripped off by a fake Ron Paul sign maker, and for that reason, consider it very important that we make sure we are being careful.
If Ron Paul truly did ask you to plan this campaign, then, yes, you have a committee which comes under all the campaign finance laws, and if you collect from others, same thing. I'm not familiar with the federal regulations (and don't support them either!), but in my state, there would need to be an ID number and a committee name and bank account, not just a request for money sent care of a person with no last name and with no instructions as to the payee name.
If this is legit, we need to see what the ad looks like and have all the above information.

Repost
I just posted this information on http://www.firearmstalk.c...
where?
Where are you targeting the ads? I'm a huge supporter of the 2nd amendment and long time issue voter on this issue. I'm curious where you are planning on running the ads?
I'm interested because I read several magazines that could be the target of the ad, and I'm considering donating, but not until I know where the ads will be placed.
Thanks,
THANKS!
Thanks for the recommendations. Also, a HUGE, HUGE thanks to those who are sending, and have sent, contributions. This campaign cannot succeed without YOU!
Two others and I began this campaign at the personal request of Dr. Paul on a Meetup site. It is near and dear to his heart. We saw a need and began to look for a way to fill that need.
I hope that everyone who reads this post will consider making some sort of donation. Its a commitment to the future of your 2nd Amendment rights.

Form a PAC
You need to form a non-affiliated PAC like operation NH before you gather significant money:

Nice Idea
Nice idea and well written info. and should do well.
While that idea is good, would love to see people, mainly the campaign, do feel-good ads about Ron. The type you mention are good and will be of benefit, but the most impactful ads are those that leave you with a good feeling about something or someone. Something that is nostalgic, brings back good memories, and hits that hot button in the brain that makes you feel connected to that person (candidate) and makes you smile when you think about him.
Maybe something like that can be mingled with the type of ad you are considering. Just my thoughts.
Thanks for your RP support either way.
