Adopt a Meetup Project 04/25/08 list

Adopt a Meetup Project 04/25/08 list

With our chances to win the nomination looking not so good, many
Meetup organizers may decide that it's not worth another $78 to renew
for another 6 months. For every one that drops out, we will loose, on
average, 50 supporters. Every month, for the next six months roughly
250 Meetups will get that renewal notice. Some will renew - some will
not. When a organizer fails to renew, Meetup sends out a notice to the
remaining members offering them the position of organizer for 2 weeks,
and if there are no bites - the Meetup goes away.

We need volunteer organizers to stem this tide. When an organizer gets
a Meetup, you really get 3 for the price of one, and like the early
seeder program, if you have less than 3, we would like you to adopt
some of these Meetups that are going into oblivion - at least long
enough to find a new organizer or direct members to other resources
where they can stay in the loop till we find a more permanent solution.

We need volunteers to join these Meetups and work them - explaining to
the members that while we still have a chance at the nomination, other
goals are just as important. Things like changing the party platform
and rules, having a good delegate showing to establish viability of
our message and gain media attention. The transformation of our
campaign into a long term movement and electing our candidates to
Congress and other positions (we have around 50 ppl running for office
- it's not just about Dr. Paul).

While we will be looking at different projects and sites to send
people to in the future, we suggest you send supporters to the 2 main
web sites: RonPaulForums. com and DailyPaul.com as well as the
per-state forums on Facebook, MySpace and Yahoo for now - as a stop
gap measure. Two other good sites are ronpaullive.com and
ronpaulpublic.com. That way we will know where to find them and direct
them further when we are more organized. In addition,
http://www.freedomfortress.net/ will let you mail to like minded
supporters based on user adjustable distances from you. Many of these
supporters are not connected to the movement beyond Meetup and we need
people where to go to stay involved - even if you do not adopt their
Meetup temporarily or permanently. Please focus on the Meetups with
the most members or local to you first.

If you are a Meetup organizer, two of the 3 organizer groups,
representing over 1/4 of the organizers have merged via a bridge. If
you don't belong to ONE of these, please join!

This group is not currently bridged with the other 2, and is very
limited in functionality, but is another way for organizers to
communicate. Messages must be read on-line � there is no mailing list
for this one.

If you want to be an organizer and are willing to cover the fees, look
for an expiring Meetup close to you, join it and accept the organizer
position - then join the network.

Remember, one person that does not want to pay the fees can cut off on
average 50 supporters - some of which will be into the movement for
the long term.

These are the Meetups in danger of going away in the next 2 weeks that
need adoption or at least someone to join and encourage supporters to
migrate to another nearby Meetup:

  Ron Paul has created a mass movement for the defense of liberty
      Ron Paul has done what I, and many other people, have tried to do for forty years.
  This movement must NOT evaporate away after the election:
  without regard to how the campaign,or the election, goes.
  The election is just ONE BATTLE in the war for liberty.
  Even if Ron Paul WON the election this war for liberty will not be finished.
   
   Thomas Jefferson said:
     "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance."
                 
  I add to this:
  "The battle for freedom is never won, and is never lost.
  The battle for freedom always continues.
  It is never too late, and it is never soon enough, to defend freedom."

  We could WIN the election, and still lose the battle for freedom,
  if we fail to maintain this mass movement for the defense of liberty.
  Ron Paul cannot do everything by himself.
  The masses, organized for the defense of liberty, will be needed to
  influence Congress to support President Paul.
   
    We could lose the election, and still WIN the battle for freedom,
  if we maintain this mass movement for the defense of liberty.
  Our liberty in our own hands.
  President Paul would inspire us...
  BUT it is still up to us!
   
    The freedom message walks on water.
  Ron Paul is a human being, who puts his pants on one leg at a time.
  Ideas; not individuals, are the life force of lasting revolutions.

  We must formalize the organization of the mass movement for the defense of liberty.
  We must DO THIS NOW, while the enthusiasm is at its peak.
   
  Regardless to the phony polls and the vote fraud,
  WE ARE WINNING!
