			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s no secret that I&#8217;m a supporter of <strong>Ron Paul</strong> &#8211; <a target="_blank" href="http://www.intelliot.com/blog/archives/2008/02/05/ron-paul-receives-the-most-military-donations/">here&#8217;s one post</a> I wrote about him earlier. That&#8217;s why I was excited when I discovered today that he&#8217;s coming out with a new book, entitled <em><a target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0446537519?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=dealsgizmobyt-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0446537519">The Revolution: A Manifesto</a></em> &#8211; his first book in over 20 years. One person has created a site at <a target="_blank" href="http://www.ronpaulbookbomb.com/">RonPaulBookBomb.com</a>, where you can pledge to buy one copy of the book when it&#8217;s released on <strong>April 30</strong>, 2008.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0446537519?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=dealsgizmobyt-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0446537519"><img border="0" src="http://www.intelliot.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/the-revolution-a-manifesto-ron-paul.jpg" alt="the-revolution-a-manifesto-ron-paul.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what it&#8217;s about.<span id="more-1496"></span> The United States has fallen away from its original roots, its ideals of <strong>liberty and freedom</strong> as defined in our <strong>Constitution</strong>. This is reflected in our policies on war, money, the economy, the IRS, and almost every other aspect of government. Since <a target="_blank" href="http://www.intelliot.com/blog/archives/2008/02/06/the-mainstream-media-is-biased/">the mainstream media ignores Dr. Paul&#8217;s message</a>, we need to promote this message in other ways. Ron Paul&#8217;s presidential campaign has raised many of the questions that he addresses, but it hasn&#8217;t been enough to bring it to the awareness of most Americans. That&#8217;s where his new book comes in, to help spread these ideas and help people to understand the importance of freedom.</p>
<p>I think Dr. Paul should take a page from the internet marketing world&#8217;s method of promoting new books to the top spot in bestseller lists: by using email marketing and by <strong>giving away free bonuses</strong>. Heck, if I can find a few bonuses to give away, I might organize the effort myself. What do you think, what bonuses would you like to see?</p>
<p>The book is truly an excellent deal: although the list price is $21.00, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0446537519?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=dealsgizmobyt-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0446537519">Amazon.com is listing it</a> for $14.28 (that&#8217;s 32% off)! Plus, you save an <strong>extra 5% if you pre-order it</strong>. I&#8217;ll definitely pre-order a copy, and at that price I&#8217;m tempted to buy two. But I&#8217;ve never read one of Dr. Paul&#8217;s books before, so I&#8217;ll hold off until I&#8217;ve at least read <em><a target="_blank" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0912453001?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=dealsgizmobyt-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=0912453001">A Foreign Policy of Freedom</a></em>, which I shall also order tonight. At $13.57, it&#8217;s an amazing deal, too.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve found a use for the $50 I won at the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.intelliot.com/blog/archives/2008/02/20/water-and-the-google-all-nighter/">Google All-Nighter</a> <img src='http://www.intelliot.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
