Ron Paul is a pretty well known phenomenon outside of the “mainstream media” (MSM). But many who support him don't know the ways to best help Dr. Paul in his bid for becoming U.S. President number 44.

So, being fairly convinced that he is the current best choice to move this country back to the concepts of individual rights (pro-individual), freedom for all (anti-corruption), limited government, and the non-aggression principal that the ancestors of this country shed blood, sweat, and misery to archive, I figure a list of all the different ways to support Ron Paul and the probable benefits associated with each is in order.

With that in mind, top to bottom, most useful to least, with ease of use a factor.

Most Useful for Ron Paul

Money Bombing probably needs it's own section, as it achieves two two objectives with one action and it's highly effective at both. It gets money into the Ron Paul election committee and it forces the mainstream media to report on Paul. As a note of fairness most of the information derived about Money Bombing comes from the Ron Paul Money Bomb official sign up site. For any monetary donations, always use Ron Paul's site donations link) directly.

Money Bombing Special Days

Single day events are more publicity effective than the weekly events below as they cause more of a ripple in reporting. Here are the list of single event days

“Actually, there are a variety of ways to participate, at different donation levels, as several money bombs have merged into one. The big one is at FiftyOneYears.com, asking for a $51 pledge in honor of Ron and Carol Paul's 51st wedding anniversary. Or pledge as much as you want at the Paul Family Values site.

Anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, December 16th, the Ron Paul Tea Party, or Tea Party 07

There seems to be several variations on this specific theme (well, duh!), but if you wish to pledge your support prior to making a donation on December 16th, then see: Tea Party 07

Money Bomb (MB9) will be on December 7th, Pearl Harbor Day

December 7, 2024 (Friday)
“The event will last 3 hours. Make your donation between 1pm-4pm Eastern
Announcing the "Return to the Campaign" Drive, Nation Wide this 7th, 8th, and 9th, of December. This event is to promote awareness to the grassroots community that the campaign absolutely needs our help. They also need us to follow their lead! Keep your eye on the prize. Donate, help with the letter writing campaign, join a meetup group, promote Ron Paul. Bring it back down to earth. Ron Paul 2008. Go Ron Paul”

Money Bombing Weekly

The concept is to give at least $25 per week, so that the Ron Paul campaign has a stable base of revenue flow to work with. I thought at one point they wanted all the donations on Fridays, but I can no longer find that, so just setup your reoccurring donation on any day you want. See: Ron Paul Money Bomb official sign up site

Useful for Ron Paul

Stamp stuff with a Ron Paul Stamp

Stamp letters, envelopes, and even money. And yes, stamping money is legal as long as you don't “render bills unfit to be re-issued.” I'm surprised I haven't seen money stamped with this already, as it's definitely one of those, “DUH!” type concepts. See: Buy a “Ron Paul for President” stamp [RtF does receive compensation if you buy off the above link. --MJT]

Ron Paul 2008 Meetups

“The purpose of the Ron Paul Meetup Topic is to facilitate grassroots campaign organizing. This Meetup topic will provide you with the networking and organizational tools to become actively involved in Congressman Ron Paul's presidential campaign in your local area.” I would have put this higher, but it's somewhat like preaching to the choir. See: Ron Paul 2008 Meetups

Ron Paul Letter Writing Campaign

“Help us reach our goal of delivering 700,000 letters to Iowa "no party" voters and 100,000 letters to New Hampshire undeclared voters!” Hopefully they get someone with some letter stuffing equipment to join. See: Ron Paul Letter Writing Campaign

Ron Paul DVD Bomb

“Our goal is to ship a minimum of 50,000 discs, 25,000 to [New Hampshire and Iowa]. This means we need to raise $25,000. We won't stop there. We will continue to hit one primary state at a time until Ron Paul is the Republican Party candidate for president.” See: Ron Paul DVD Bomb

When Pigs Fly?

Ron Paul Blimp

Someone seems to have found a way to fleece the Ron Paul supporters with this one. “Liberty Political Advertising is a for profit broker of political advertising time. We are not soliciting funds for the Ron Paul campaign or any political committee or party.” [emphasis added] Possibly just some shyster middle man, who can do some graphics work, put up a website, drag in a bunch of cash, and then claim, “well, darn, I couldn't get permits to fly the rental blimp.” See: Ron Paul Blimp
[Update 12/16: It Flew! Call me a cynic, but this sure presented itself as a scam. --MJ]
