I think this is a FANTASTIC idea to reach the people that like Ron Paul and maybe wanted to vote for him in the last election but voted for McCain instead and who don't spend a lot of time on the internet in political forums or reading Ron Paul fan websites.

It would be really cool if some deep pocketed people like maybe Jim Rogers or Peter Schiff would cut a big check for Dr. Paul after seeing this.

Whoops. I guess this needs to be moved to "Elections". I'd delete it but there is no way to delete the subject.

Sadly I've already maxed out what I can legally donate to Ron Paul's campaign but I do intend on donating more to any PAC that supports Ron Paul.

Nothing is as powerful as an idea who's time has come. He's been warning us for 3 decades.

I know what you mean. But don't you think this ad should reach some deep pockets that maybe arent politics junkies like we are? I know their are lots of older people that only go on-line to check-email and and unless they watch CNBC or Fox Business channel all the time, they aren't going to be exposed to any of the good Ron Paul articles and interviews that have been coming out.

He did a good one on NPR lately so hopefully he reached some liberal- NYTimes reading -Obama voter- soccer moms like my sister but I think he really needs to reach out to liberals more.

? The only cable network out of the big three that shows Paul in a fair light is MSNBC. Also keep in mind Paul's core base for years has been very liberal college age people.

I mean I know "there" are older people not "their". Sheesh. It's really annoying to me to see mistakes in posts I write and not be able to correct them unless it is within the first 10 minutes of when I wrote it (or whatever the window of time is). I think the window should be a few days long.

Also regardng the commercial for the Money Bomb, Ralph Nader wrote a book called something like Only the Super-Rich Can Save Us or something like that where he thinks that if we could just find some really rich people who want to actually do good and HELP this country, it could be done. Hopefully this commercial will unearth some.
