Ron Paul DC March has an official date July 12th, 2008
I just received the email stating that an official date has been decided for the Ron Paul March. It appears that all the proper permits and paperwork have been filed with the Washington DC parks department. It is July 12th, 2008.Please check back here or at the official DC March site for more details as we get closer to the official date. If you are in a Ron Paul meetup please contact them to check with others that may be traveling together or making sure that everyone gets there.
The discussed itinerary has said that there will be a rally point where everyone meets up and gets ready, then a march for a mile or two around DC, and then a speech crowd in an auditorium style arena where there are tens of thousands of people in front of a large stage where Ron Paul, Russell Means, and other notables should give speeches, talk about what has happened in the last year, and what will happen in the future.
Here is a copy of the email:
Hello Everyone,
The day is finally upon us! WE HAVE A DATE! We also have confirmation that Ron Paul will be the keynote speaker at our march and rally in Washington D.C. The date will be July 12, 2008, the march will end at the rally point on the West side of Capitol Hill. More details on the march start point and march route will be released soon!
We want to make this a huge event! As of now, we have had over 14,000 people pledge to march and rally with us! We want 100,000 plus to be there and create one loud voice advocating freedom and less government. We thank Dr. Ron Paul for being our keynote speaker and we will publish a list of other great speakers in the coming weeks.
Like many of you, we were looking forward to marching on June 21. Unfortunately, this was not possible due to permitting. We did get permits for the dates of July 12 and August 2, so we decided to reach out to the excited members of the Revolution to find out which date you preferred. The results of the poll on our website had July 12 as the preferred date with 47% of the vote. Once Dr. Paul confirmed his availability for this date, it was a done deal! We know this movement isn’t about dates, it is about freedom, less government, and personal responsibility. So if that was not the best date for you, we hope that you will do your best to arrange your schedule to support the rest of us who are already committed to that date. We hope that this helps continue to spread the word and message of Dr. Paul and the Ron Paul Revolution!
Volunteers are now needed more than ever. Please visit http://www.revolutionmarch.com and volunteer today. We really need help with stage, lighting and sound. Another big area we could us help with is Public Relations, anyone who has a business or expertise in areas of Public Relations please contact us ASAP. There are plenty of other things we need help with to make this a big and successful event so please join us today.
Sincerely,
The RevolutionMarch Team
