Ron Paul Freedom March or the Grassroots Freedom Rally?
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
If you’ve been following the Ron Paul Campaign, you know that Ron published a video ,you know the one that says he’s still in the race, but not really. Towards the end he says he has an idea that we should march on Washington.
Funny thing is the grassroots already had a march on the agenda, the Freedom Rally headed up by the grannywarriors.
I got to wondering if this was the campaign HQ trying to sabotage another grassroots effort? It’s just a thought, since they have yet to set a date or communicate with the grassroots since taking the reins over a month ago.
So what do you suppose happened?
The grannies are being attacked by the “not-so friendly fire” of their fellow revolutionaries using the same neocon namecalling rhetoric that got us shackled with the so-called “Patriot Act”. The Ron Paul sheep,(yes, I said sheep) claim that the grannies should cancel their march and wait for the Ron Paul Campaign Headquarters to set a march date.
Which got this beautiful response:
NO WE DON’T
To date they have let things slide, put off needed projects and in total have done more to circumvent the success of this campaign than can be imagined. If you feel that the campaign committee has done a great job in winning this election or even the primarys then you need to re-evaluate the results we have seen. We had to institute the Recount, We had to make the news, We had to rally the troops with the meetup groups and the Grassroots working over time..
WE HAVE RAISED THE FUNDS FOR THIS ENTIRE CAMPAIGN.
We have taken no salary, we have spent our own time and money with no appreciation from the Campaign Hq. The only time they recognize us is when they need more money then they put out a notice of needing even more. The campaign brags about the Military being the biggest donors to this campaign yet the salary of a enlisted Military man is approximately $40.00 a day to provide a living wage for their family plus they are being shot at and have given up so much for all of us.. The Campaign HQ director receives a $1000.00 a day in salary plus expenses and gives up nothing, not even the decency of being respectful to the people who call or visit the offices
Is this the type of people we want representing us and our Revolution?
Or planning our protest?
The Grassroots people can and will do a much better job for Ron and the Revolution.
I love these grannies.
I always side with grannies, maybe in the hopes I’ll be adopted
but actually the older I get the more I see that there is a perspective that can only be gained by breathing longer than the next guy. And it’s in our interest to pay attention when grannies and grampas have something to say.
These grannies have tapped the source and it’s not Ron Paul. Whether you are 9-11 truther or an anti-war patriot, a lifelong republicrat or newly awakened freedom fighter it’s liberty and freedom and that’s what resonates with the people.
Here’s an excellent suggestion to the Ron Paul Campaign for their march as posited by Devvy Kidd about why she doesn’t support the Ron Paul Freedom March on Washington DC and calls for a march on the GOP convention.
Another excellent idea and true to the grassroots effort.
We are at a crossroads and we need to act. We can no longer sit on the side lines and watch others take a stand. We all need to stand with the grannies in April and then march on the GOP convention.
I think this is where Ron Paul went wrong, he’s supposed to be running for president, he’s not the one to spread the message, its not his message, it’s America’s message and spreading it is the grassroots job.
We need to take back our country.
This is no longer about elections and political parties. So don’t get sidetracked by the narrowminded GOP loyalists or the so-called patriots. It’s about our freedom.
What are you gonna do about it?
