I’ve Followed the Progress of Ron Paul for the 2008
Presidential Election –This is an Update

I mentioned a few weeks ago that there was no national conspiracy about Ron Paul, but that it takes time for someone with genuine ideas to gain in popularity.

I also said that support is like a “wave” and that wave needs support as it keeps growing.  Has that support grown!

It helps that the individual running for President is the first Statesman to run for public office in a long time.  Having such a “powerful product” is what is driving the growth of his popularity.  The ground swell is gaining strength.  In fact, this weekend it will take a leap — On the 5th of November, the Ron Paul supporters raised $4.3 million.  They are at it again this weekend to celebrate the 234th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party.  The supporters are aiming to raise around $10 million.  I don’t see that happening. I see around $7 million to $8 million.  That just about doubles that last record!  Just incredible.

All this is amazing as  the only thing the Ron Paul campaign has done to facilitate the raising of millions, and perhaps, as much as $20 million this quarter is to have a strong server platform accepting payments online.  The rest is done by supporters.

Part of the reason that I mention this is to take a look at his website >> and note that every aspect of online selling is used to convey the message to the reader.  Everything from instant attention getting images to a whole video library are there.  It’s a great execution of a branding campaign.  The name recognition is now growing rapidly for Dr. Ron Paul.

Amazing numbers –just amazing.
