He left his job to campaign in New Hampshire where Ron Paul is polling at about 7%.

I hope he knows someone rich enough to support him.

He´s a organisator of the "operation live free or die"-campaign.

Today they are raising 100.000$ from individuals to get 1000 volunteers to knock every door in NH...

Have you heard something like that before, cause i haven´t...

From the site,

With your help, we can bring enough volunteers so that we can reach out to every single citizen in New Hampshire and share with them why
Dr Paul's message is most compatible with the principles of their state - the Live Free or Die state.

Qwerty,

Yes I have. Its called working the ground. The Dems do it with unions and paid solicitors along with a lot of other programs.

The Republicans have done much the same thing now with volunteers since the election in 2000.

The tactic can make all the difference in a close race. This though, is not one of those, not for your guy anyway. Ron Paul's message, like Hukabee's is going to resonate much less in the North East than other places.

Ok, you have seen people quitting their jobs and leaving from their homes for weeks to help presidential candidate for free (1000 people) ?

And you have seen other half donating 100.000 for these people ?

Where, i would really like to see it ?

Pretty weird that those supporters, dont even show at the debates ?


For example in Florida, only Mitt and Ron had supporters out there, Mitt had like 20 and probably paid...

Yes, you can think so ?

But remember that you have only one vote, so don´t speak too much...

qwerty,

Yep, you are right. I missed that. There has not been anyone to my knowlege that has quit his job to go and work door to door for a candidate with no chance of being elected.

And yes, I do understand that is not your opinion either.

The people I was referring to made some better decisions than that.

But the idea of volunteer door to door workers stumping for their candidate is not new in and of itself.

I want to laugh but I feel bad. Anyone who'd quite their job over this needs some help immediately.

[Elrathin]

What's really funny is Ron Paul already said he wouldn't run as an independent, so if he loses the primary, this guy has lost his job and Ron Paul keeps his as a senator. Now that's some gratitude for ya.

No need to be sarcastic.

If you know any grass-root effort like this one, please tell me...

Really, cause i haven´t seen one in my whole life ? If there are i would like to see it, i don´t know if there are..that´s why i´m asking...

And you are the one who is crying about that i insult you ?

You seem to have that skill too...

Is it really our problem if someone wants to do this ?

Does it really hurt you so much that people have faith on Ron Paul ?

Damn, I hate to correct you, Elrathin, but Dr. Paul is a representative, who serves a two year term, so if he doesn't get the nomination, he'll have to run again for congress if he wants to keep his seat.

And for what it's worth, nearly all of the money that Senator Obama has raised has come from individual contributors, not corporations. I don't know what Paul's record is on that score, but the individual contributions seem to me to be a powerful sign of grass roots support.

Hmmmmm, i´m pretty sure he knows that and are going to take that risk, cause of what he believes on..did you watch the video ?

When Ron Paul asked him to quit his job ?

Like Ron Paul says this is a movement and he just has luck to part of it...

So don´t think that it this will stop if Ron Paul does not get elected, people are pissed off. They are loosing their savings and freedoms, what are you without those ?

That guys have much more balls than anyone here including me, he does everything he can for what he believes on.

i would pay respect to everyone who does that, no matter which candidate he supports...
