I just want to say this, and then I’m going to bed. If you want to shake up the Republican party a bit, now is the time to do it.
Right now.
Tonight.
And here’s how you do it.
- Find a candidate who is as close to what you believe in as possible, regardless of whether you think he has a chance to win or not.
- Go to his website.
- Make the biggest donation that you can afford.
You have to remember this: Politics does not happen in a vacuum. People notice how much money people are raising, and they react to it. For instance, at the end of this last quarter when Ron Paul announced that he had raised $5,200,000, which was on par with McCain, which was half as much as Guiliani, people started asking questions like: How is someone who has been getting almost no mainstream coverage raising that kind of money? What is it about this guy that is getting people’s attention? Since that time Ron Paul’s mainstream coverage has increased dramatically. If he makes his December 1st goal of raising 12 million dollars, it will jump even more.
Presidential elections happen once every four years, if you just give $100 that’s nothing compared to what you pay for entertainment over that same period. Seriously, it’s time that people who say they have convictions start acting like it.
And if you don’t have any money, email this to someone who does!
