What should Ron Paul do to convert the momentum of his primary campaign into a genuine popular mass movement?
Ron Paul set fundraising records and is on the right side of most of the pressing issues of the day, but was shut out of the national conversation by the corporate media. What should his next step be to keep building the momentum?

- I would say for him to wait until it was closer to Nov. Then run a bunch of TV ads, by then the other two should be low in cash
- Momentum?! LOL He got, what? 3% of the vote?! Face it, there was no momentum.
- Momentum... uh, sorry, I must have missed that. Paul is a non-issue at this point in time. Kinda sad, really, but I refuse to throw away my vote.
- He needs to encourage people to get off their asses and get involved on a local level.
- Wear a pin wheel hat and sing "In A Gadda Da Vida" while riding a llama.
- I'm not a campaign manager, but if I could I'd vote for him.
- Do an online ezine/newsletter to keep his followers up to date. Invite ideas of how to advance the cause. Recruit people to mount primary challenges in future elections.
- Ron Paul could solve the energy problem by converting the sunshine beaming from his rectal orifice into solar power...enough to power the entire planet.
- What Ron Paul and his followers do not understand is that people actually want to have a social security system to provide for their retirement; people actually want health insurance and people actually support public education; and therefore there is never going to be a mass movement to support the dismantling of programs such as Social Security and Medicare that are extremely popular.
- July 12th, we march on DC. That will open some eyes. http://www.revolutionmarch.com/Default.aspx?rnd=852886677
- I really like him (have big signs up all over still) but think that he has lost his momentum, through no fault of his own. Interesting that someone would call the people who support Ron Paul lemmings....what does that make the people who support the msm candidates? zombies? addicts? He could still possibly gain public support if all TV's stop working before the election and the only way to communicate is to actually read something or talk to people. . I still meet people who have never heard of him and I think the only way he could win is if every one of his supporters talks to everyone they meet and educate them on how they are giving up their freedoms at an unbelievable rate. Unfortunately, I think a lot of people don't want the responsibility that comes with those freedoms that our forefathers so desperately wanted to protect. I am afraid we are headed up s@#$ creek at a rapid rate and there is not a paddle in sight. Social Security is imploding, don't count on it if you are younger than 50. Public Education is a mess, and they don't even know where to start with healthcare, thanks to the advances in medicine that are so expensive we have ethical questions due to cost.... Also, do those same people want much higher taxes? Because you can't have one without the other. Freedom is not cheap
- Ron Paul is an idiot.
