[Mon May 14 2012 03:00:29 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Dude, Ron Paul just pulled a PERFECT textbook move straight out of Sun Tzu's The Art of War
[Mon May 14 2012 03:00:44 PM] Jay House: Never read it.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:00:48 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Oh, you should
[Mon May 14 2012 03:01:05 PM] Jay House: You may have to hit me up with the details.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:01:06 PM] TrueRedDragoon: It's one of the most relevant texts ever and it was written in 500BC
[Mon May 14 2012 03:01:14 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Okay, anyway
[Mon May 14 2012 03:01:44 PM] TrueRedDragoon: You know Ron's been winning the majority of delegate spots in a lot of states now, right?
[Mon May 14 2012 03:02:41 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Well, lately, the media's had to report on them and our people have been facing gradually increasing resistance at state GOP meetings, including the most recent at OK and AZ
[Mon May 14 2012 03:03:28 PM] TrueRedDragoon: More people are coming out against Ron Paul supporters "hijacking" delegates and stuff
[Mon May 14 2012 03:03:42 PM] TrueRedDragoon: That's what the media's reporting, even though we're playing by the rules
[Mon May 14 2012 03:04:20 PM] TrueRedDragoon: There are two huge delegate treasures coming up very soon, which are TX and CA
[Mon May 14 2012 03:05:07 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Ron's campaign doesn't have enough money to campaign in those states, since it costs a lot of money to advertise and the primary results are rigged anyway
[Mon May 14 2012 03:05:41 PM] TrueRedDragoon: And when we win delegate slates, we get ignored by the MSM
[Mon May 14 2012 03:05:53 PM] TrueRedDragoon: So what does he do?
[Mon May 14 2012 03:06:22 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Today, the campaign released an email that said that they were going to stop actively campaigning in primary states.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:07:05 PM] TrueRedDragoon: That doesn't mean he's stopping his bid for President, mind you.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:07:47 PM] TrueRedDragoon: However, the MSM within 5 minutes of this email dropping are reporting around the country that Ron Paul has officially ended his campaign for the GOP nomination
[Mon May 14 2012 03:08:20 PM] TrueRedDragoon: This is a brilliant tactical move
[Mon May 14 2012 03:09:12 PM] TrueRedDragoon: You may not know, but Sun Tzu was a general who defeated an army 4x the size of the one he commanded through his rules
[Mon May 14 2012 03:10:04 PM] TrueRedDragoon: So much like Sun Tzu, Ron is a commander with a much smaller army against the MSM and the neocon GOP
[Mon May 14 2012 03:10:44 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Ron knows that the MSM will only report the most twisted, Opposite Day version of whatever he says.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:11:22 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Art of War (AoW) says that if you know yourself and know your enemy, you will win 100 out of 100 battles.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:12:23 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Now, with this email, he has spread throughout the entire country that he is no longer in the race
[Mon May 14 2012 03:12:43 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Deception is another part of AoW.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:13:00 PM] TrueRedDragoon: This works two-fold
[Mon May 14 2012 03:13:46 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Now, before the crucial delegate states of TX and CA, the uninformed masses will think that Romney has the nomination finally locked up and a lot won't come out to vote
[Mon May 14 2012 03:14:00 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Making every one of our votes count for a LOT more
[Mon May 14 2012 03:14:24 PM] TrueRedDragoon: as well as reduce the amount of resistance our delegates are facing
[Mon May 14 2012 03:14:49 PM] TrueRedDragoon: This means that we will be picking up FAR more delegates than we would have before.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:15:01 PM] TrueRedDragoon: The other part is even better
[Mon May 14 2012 03:15:21 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Ron doesn't have the money (resources) to fight against the MSM with ads
[Mon May 14 2012 03:16:30 PM] TrueRedDragoon: So, with this move, the MSM is gonna start inviting him on their shows (now that he's not seen as a threat anymore), and there he'll be able to inform the country that he is actually in the race, that he's won many states, and show that the media is being biased against him in one fell swoop.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:16:43 PM] Jay House: Jay House (lantis02@gmail.com) is idle
[Mon May 14 2012 03:18:00 PM] TrueRedDragoon: I'm going to be paying attention to this one
[Mon May 14 2012 03:19:23 PM] Jay House: Jay House (lantis02@gmail.com) is online
[Mon May 14 2012 03:21:58 PM] TrueRedDragoon: That's it.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:22:16 PM] Jay House: Sounds like he's got things under control for a change.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:22:26 PM] TrueRedDragoon: I think so.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:22:47 PM] TrueRedDragoon: I think some people are confused by what's going on, even on the Daily Paul
[Mon May 14 2012 03:23:15 PM] TrueRedDragoon: But he's counting on us to actually read the email and not take the MSM version of it
[Mon May 14 2012 03:23:26 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Another important thing about Sun Tzu
[Mon May 14 2012 03:23:56 PM] TrueRedDragoon: He did not care about glory (winning state primary beauty contests). He cared about winning (delegates).
[Mon May 14 2012 03:25:05 PM] TrueRedDragoon: It doesn't matter if the country think he's out. He's in and in it to win it. That's all that matters.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:26:28 PM] TrueRedDragoon: It's actually kinda sad to see people losing their head over the email. Ron Paul is not playing chess. He's playing Go.
[Mon May 14 2012 03:27:02 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Oh, FYI
[Mon May 14 2012 03:27:10 PM] Jay House: Yeah?
[Mon May 14 2012 03:27:24 PM] TrueRedDragoon: Ron won AZ yesterday and OK.
