Ron Paul is On the Money… Literally
Liberty Dollar, 2008 Elections, Activism, Ron Paul, Announcements July 3rd, 2007
That’s right, the nation’s leading advocate of returning control of the economy to the people — Ron Paul — is now on specially minted Liberty Dollars, and you can buy them at a markup which goes as a contribution to the Ron Paul campaign. Only the first $2,300 in markups can be sent to the campaign according to the FEC, so make yours count! There are now copper, silver, and gold pieces available from www.RonPaulDollar.com which bear the likeness of Congressman Ron Paul.
From the webpage:
Von NotHaus, the fiery “freemarketeer” behind the Ron Paul Dollar, observes, “It will be interesting to see if enough people are fed up with politics, Bush regime, and the war to take Congressman Paul seriously. Certainly the Ron Paul Dollar is as unique as the Candidate and the election itself. Do the majority of Americans really want to change Washington? Time will tell.”
Von NotHaus stresses urgency as the political parties have moved up the primary elections, squeezing campaigning time to only eight more months. If people want to change things, they must make a donation to Ron’s campaign, get a Ron Paul Dollar and support him right now.
All this will be a big surprise to Dr. Paul. As Liberty Dollar’s legal counsel pointed out, if Ron Paul’s campaign was informed before the launch date, the Federal Election Commission could require profits in excess of $2,300 (the maximum individual donation allowed) to be distributed to the Republican Party! So the Ron Paul Dollar was created as an “independent contribution” and is distributed through the grassroots Volunteer Network.
The copper pieces bear a $1 face value, while the silver are $20 and the gold $1,000. You can get them at a variety of markups or, if you are a Liberty Associate, you can get one with your regular Associate commission as well as a $1 contribution.
This is a great way to contribute to the campaign, as it will give you not only a beautiful, shiny campaign tool, but also a conversation piece to introduce people to the concept of sound money.
We can retake control of our economy from the big bankers with Liberty Dollars, and now we can help retake the Presidency from the corrupt politicians with them, too.
