"An awesome group of dedicated and concerned citizens with the common goal of freedom and prosperity for America"

— Lisa Mallory (May 10, 2008)

"I think you should join this meetup group if you are a TRUE Ron Paul Republican. I've put many hours of my time into this campaign from canvassing to becoming a State Delegate and I will continue to support The Freedom Movement even if it takes 10 years. I personally am Voting my Principles and my Conscience. Politics is not always easy, and you will come across your occasional bad seed, however the rewards and self fulfillment you get from giving your time to a cause you believe in is the most precious gift you can give to yourself and to your country. VOTE RON PAUL!"

— Brandi (May 7, 2008)

"This is a very important group. Let's keep it up!!!"

"Austin, TX is STILL ready, willing and able.... We are taking back our country starting HERE!!"

— Paul Davis (Apr 19, 2008)

"I want to be free of tyrannical government in my life! That means taking responsibility for myself instead of depending on the government's coroporations to feed me, house me, think for me and make me ask for permission to do just about everything! That's why I'm part of this group and why I started the Austin Natural Building meetup! Check it out! We all need some of this and to restore our Master status over our government at all levels! It starts with the individual."

— janet (Apr 13, 2008)

"We are a hardworking, dedicated group of citizens trying to make a change in government, starting at local level.We want to rid our government of corruption and unnecessary pork spending. Everyone who attends the meetings delivers positive, useful information and actions for the cause. Meetings are well organized, informative, friendly and fun. Come join us. Together we can all make a difference and save America."

— Diane Dunigan (Apr 7, 2008)

"this meetup group is wonerful it has opened my eyes towards the power of the people when the people unite. because of my newborn daughter it is hard for me to attend sometimes, but if i could i would go to every meet up. this meet up needs all of austins support"

— Michael Germanow (Apr 7, 2008)

"Join with others who are disappointed with our state agencies and governor"

— Landon Tesar (Apr 6, 2008)

"The leader was very good. I agree. Because if more people don't get involved, we will have a more difficult time being successful."

— Chris Patterson (Apr 5, 2008)

"Great to be among people working to restore Liberty via the Ron Paul campaign."

— Grant Rostig (Apr 5, 2008)

"Please stop suppressing the hemp-friendly messages... Think! If being hemp-friendly was not a winning issue for Dr.Paul, why isn't every other candidate bringing it up? Guess what! It is the same reason that those tiny-minded stooge-pundits won't ever utter the word "marijuana" ... *hint* 85% of New Hampshire voters are in favor of legalizing "medicinal marijuana", at least 70% nation-wide... You guessed it! Being the most hemp-friendly candidate, literally for decades, is yet another winning distinction for Dr. Paul! Why else would anyone keep it such a big secret? Ob-Gyn Dr. Ron Paul can, for example, talk about the world's number-one known preventable cause of mental-retardation, FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME!!! By the way, tetra-hydra cannabinol (THC), is non-toxic... There is no such thing as "Fetal Marijuana Syndrome"... Are you beginning to understand that if there was such a thing, we all would have heard all about it long ago? Truth about hemp/marijuana is good news!"

— Ronnie "Reeferseed" Gjemre (Apr 5, 2008)

"lets keep growing!"

— Butch Smith (Apr 4, 2008)

"Get involved, people! You joined this group to help Ron Paul so get off yer ass and DO SOMETHING!"

— James Scott Williams (Apr 4, 2008)

— JOHN MAXIM (Mar 20, 2008)

"Very cool how many choose to involve themselves in the delegate process. Glad to see a good turn out. Thanks to all who attended and a round of applause to both Robert Morrow and Robert McDonald for their support and info shared. Keep up the good work!"

"This group is large and organized. A real force in the R3VOLUTION."

— Justus (Mar 7, 2008)

"If you haven't already, you will soon get a letter from the Republican National Committee asking for money. There is a donation form and self addressed envelope. I wrote on the form that I would never ever again send money to the RNC because of the way Dr. Paul was ridiculed and treated on the "debates". I said Rudy was giggling like a school girl when Dr. Paul was speaking and McCain looked on with disdain. I encourage everone else to do what I did. At least we can gum up the works a bit for them. Thanks."

— Thomas (Mar 5, 2008)

— John Burton (Mar 5, 2008)

"A fun, motivated group!"

— Chuck Siercks (Mar 5, 2008)

"One thing I'm really mad about is that the media still declare the winner, even though precinct convention chairs HAVE THREE DAYS to get their materials in. CORRUPT!!! How do we deal with this???"

— ebinrock (Mar 4, 2008)

"For the future of your childrens liberties"

— Felix Silva (Mar 4, 2008)

— Alan R. Weiss (Feb 24, 2008)

"This was awesome! Seeing Ron Paul in person, talking -- he's not like a regular politician. He's genuine, and you can feel it. We must have had like 6000 people but Meetup only lets you put 3 digits in."

— Val Gameiro (Feb 24, 2008)

— Fernando (Feb 3, 2008)

"I'm thrilled that we have so many members here. "

— Richard (Feb 2, 2008)

"I thought the ball was great! My only issue was with one speaker who seemed to split focus and go off on the whole "Raise your own food and start from scratch revolution speech. While I may support this cause, I feel that Ron Paul supporters reach such a diverse group of people the focus should be tight on what we are trying to accomplish. One battle at a time!"

— courtney donnell (Feb 1, 2008)

"Awesome group of people! Really proud to say I'm in the Austin Ron Paul meetup. You rock!! "

"Inspired!"

— michael brown (Jan 6, 2008)

"Excellent. It will give those of us with no political experience a way to figure out how we can be most effective at getting RP elected. We need to keep spreading the word and maybe just use the events to discuss different ideas on how to better get the word out . Also, as a motivator for everyone."

— Mark Edelmon (Dec 30, 2007)

"Paul, you didn't just start a "meetup group". You started a phenomenon; a movement; a rEVOLution!! Way to go Pard. Great to see you again and hope to see ya' at the next one."

— Ed Boyd (Dec 29, 2007)

"Awesome! Great to be with such fantastic people. :D"

— anson (Dec 18, 2007)

"Have hand-outs of what is covered in the training and any support material. Having hand-outs would allow the participants to listen better because they wouldn't be distracted by having to take doen notes. Also, the hand-outs allows participants to review the material covered and more easilly share with others."

— Madelyn Burley-Allen (Dec 18, 2007)

"Thanks for the free stickers you guys."

— Angela (Dec 17, 2007)

"Austin is the place to be to show your love for our man!"

— Mark Waszczak (Dec 13, 2007)

"Dare I mention the "O" word? I'm not sure organization is a top priority. I get the sense that the idea is frowned upon."

— Pat McCord (Dec 12, 2007)

"We are all freedom lovers that are fighting what can only be described as the good fight."

— Pat Faith (Dec 10, 2007)

"SWEET! Ron Paul Austin Meet-up is already incredibly successful and we are finally getting the freedom message out in ways that haven't been seen before. My biggest fear is that the rest of you will loose you fire for liberty after the '08 election cycle. Don't. A Ron Paul presidency is critical, and he will need a good Libertarian congress, and good Libertarian states, to back him up for now and the future to ensure a liberty stricken America."

— Jim Fulner (Dec 10, 2007)

"I am very pleased with the meetup group. "

— Erica Grignon (Dec 7, 2007)

"In my view, this group and teh folks that are leading it do a fine job of organizing and do an excellent job of setting positive attitudes and good energy."

— mark sells (Nov 29, 2007)

"Great, but we can't stop, we can't get tired and we can't get discouraged. Discourage means to be without courage, and we must always have courage. The founding fathers not only risked death, but a trators death, none of us are risking anywhere near that price. The are a very few amoung us that actually no what it means to risk that. To them I bow in honor, to the rest, I say look at this few. See how hard they work, and follow them. We may win or we may lose, but we should never reach the end say "I could have done more""

— Robert B. McDonald (Nov 20, 2007)

"Ron Paul! Woohoo!"

— Bo Zimmerman (Nov 18, 2007)

"i think that this is probably the best group ever. it's better than pringles for sure, and that's huge."

— joe (Nov 18, 2007)

"Just surprised that so many are members in name only but dont seem to show up to events like this one today. Understand that not everyone can go to everything, but c'mon people! This chance may never come again. It's worth being a little inconvenienced for! Let's have 500 people there the next time - that's still only a little over half our membership! "

— Chris (Nov 17, 2007)

"Very enthusiastic high energy people."

— Vickie Karp (Sep 22, 2007)

"We have so many people, about 800 now, and yet we could only get a few together for this kind of exposure! If this meetup group wants constitutional principles back in government they need to make sacrifices just as the founders did, come support the revolution! "

— Ryan Williams (Sep 14, 2007)

"Due to the very public venue it was difficult to meet very many people, or know how many were there for this event. Nevertheless, thank you for organizing it.."
