The Ron Paul Fundraising Challenge

[Borodog]

Dr. Paul's campaign has set an extremely aggressive fundraising target for this quarter (perhaps too aggressive, but that's another story). $12M for the quarter, $4M per month. October is over halfway over, and so far they've only raised $1M. I know that the fundraising ramps way up before the deadline on these things, but I'd rather the last-minute gap to be made up be as small as possible. I highly encourage all the 2+2 Ron Paul supporters to give whatever they can. You can donate via credit card, pay pal or other methods at his official campaign site http://www.ronpaul2008.com .

I gave another $200 today.



Donate and post in this thread. Let's see what kind of total 2+2 can generate. Please no prior donations (sorry renodoc; you are still balla).

I'm all for RP, but I don't see what this post adds to the forum. It seems a little spammy to just say "hey let's all give money to so and so."

I donated 250 at 5:30am this morning before I left for work (14 hours ago). Does that count?

If Politics forum regulars can't organize to support a presidential candidate, then . . . well I don't know what to say.

It's up to iron, though. He's the mod. If I'm violating some policy I don't know about, then he should obv. lock/delete.

Yep.

I will be donating $50 as soon as I get paid for E-bay items via Paypal! (And, ironically, not voting for Paul) [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The money of heathens buys just as much air time.

Post when you've donated. And thanks.

[SleeperHE]

I'm in for $50 as well.

$200. Feels good to put my money where my mouth is. Now I just need to get around to registering to vote.

I'm just saying it would get pretty annoying if there was a new thread every time someone wanted to drum up support for a candidate without even trying to start any real discussion.

Maybe we could have a designated "political contribution thread?"
