I know I had negotiated a full hour for Ron Paul for an exclusive radio interview from a station covering all of NY state and parts of 6 other states.
And all I got back from the campaign managers was some empty platitudes and weak excuses for his post hoc unavailability.

Anyone want to discuss Mel Gibson as a guess?

My guess would be that it is Mark Cuban. He fits the bill and I believe he is passionate about his beliefs

Thus participate in democracy and the well thought-out election process by the founding fathers and become a delegate, or if that is not possible, become an alternate delegate if you can. Check google to see what happened in Missouri, for instance and email Dr. Steve Parent newspaper4paul @ hotmail.com if you are a true Ron Paul supporter.

Paul’s campaign started as a longshot, but the race for the GOP nomination is NOT over by a longshot as well. McCain used 54 m plus so far, but ironic that he can fell prey to his own McCain-Feingold law, in the light of his use of matching funds
He may only have used 50 m, and the Dems have a complaint at the FEC.

More importantly: Yes, Dr. Paul cannot win in the conventional way, but he can still win with an unconventional, constitutional way, like Abraham Lincoln, who has less than 10% of delegates when he was elected. Remember that McCain actually received 2/3 of the anti-war GOP vote ( and also from Independents and Democrats who will not send delegates). These people have not yet been introduced to the only and real anti-war GOP candidate: Ron Paul. So they can decide to vote for Paul at the convention. There is a strong anti-McCain feeling in the GOP, even among those who endorsed him reluctantly and he has no enthusiastic grassroot support. The primaries/caucuses are like glorified strawpolls, what really matters is who goes to the delegate process after the day of the vote, a process which is going on now and during the next few weeks, apart from the primaries that are still to be held.

The media ?MSM) is also not really aware of the actual GOP process and laws.
View the hard count of actaul pledged delegates here : http://www.thegreenpapers.com McCain thus does NOT have the required amount of delegates yet.
A lot can still happen over the next few months politically. The faltering economy and Iraq surges that is not working will hurt McCain (or any pro-war candidate) tremendously in the polls as well as the elections. McCain himself admitted this. The GOP also faces much stronger showing and competition by the LP and Cp if they do not field a candidate that incorporates a lot of the principles of the LP and CP. So if the GOP wants to win, they would figure out who to nominate.

I say this is BS. Don’t let it distract you from doing all you can at the grassroots level. If anything ever materialized fine, but otherwise this is a distraction and a false hope which is meant to crush your spirit. I say we deny these kind of things until something comes of them. The primaries are essentially over, we have to make changes happen with our own two hands.

The way Ron Paul stopped campaigning was as if someone took him into a smoke-filled room and showed him a film of the JFK hit from an angle nobody has ever seen before…

The Titanic is sinking. It will sink and nothing will prevent it. A financial melt-down (and/or real/fake terrorism from Al-CIA-da or Iran in retaliation for bombing Iran) will turn America up-side down. Martial Law and gun confiscation will begin, there will be a revolution and many people will die.

That’s all the globalists want anyway—lots of dead people, and the details of how/why don’t really matter.

The whole world’s economy will collapse simply because of the massive scale (trillions of USDs) and the international banksters will call for a centralized world economy to prevent this from happening again. The world will suffer from this world-wide greatest depression and will demand that we eliminate all sovereignty and economies and globalize.

I’m pretty sure Ron Paul knows he cannot prevent what’s right around the corner.

There are two separate issues here, people: The original billionaire idea was first. The latest is the broadcaster who interviewed Ron Paul recently saying that he has a group who want to spend $100 million on radio stations to get his message out. Please go listen to the audio of the interview!

Skeptic,

There were no videos; there was no parallel campaign. The project never took off, as explained in the article.

This just sounds like crap to me. As far as I could tell, all that ‘billionaire’ news stuff just caused a slump in campaign donations and support to the REAL campaign, as people were feeling ‘ah! someone else is investing and this will take care of it.’ The only videos I saw that ‘came out’ of this thing were so boring that anyone would be cross-eyed by the time they were done watching them. I heard NOTHING about a parallel campaign, which, spending THAT kind of money, should have been ALL OVER the media, all over the country! Its not like the RP people aren’t connected- we’re all over the internet together and pay attention to everything. That money SHOULD have been used to hire TOP NOTCH commercial advertising people and to blanket the media through their paid spots, to at least TRY to counter what MSM is ignoring. None of that was done. Either this is a complete lie to confuse and disempower the Ron Paul people or it was the worst (parallel) campaign in human history and as much of a waste of funds as Hillary at her best.

Congratulations on an EXTREMELY CRAPPY JOB. You’ve done NO ONE any favors- not America, not Ron Paul, not the ‘Third Party’ ticket.

Very intersting, but $100M to purchase radio stations, is a drop in a bucket. This is how much money that some of the jokeys on these stations make on their contract, let alone the worth of an entire nation radio station. They must be focusing on small local stations.

None the less, anything is welcome news.

RP08!
