The Iowa Straw Poll is going to happen on August 11th. For basic information go here. The Iowa Straw Poll is the first significant vote in the Republican primary and could make the difference between victory and defeat. There is an entry fee of $35, but you get to see Ron Paul speak and if you’re an Iowa resident, you get to vote for him. (It may be good to register as a Republican before the event.)

Let’s say you can’t make it to Ames, Iowa, on August 11th for the straw poll. What can you do to affect the Iowa straw poll?

Thanks to the miracle of the cell phone and unlimited weekend calling, you can call up people in Iowa and encourage them to vote for Ron Paul. You can look up phone numbers in Iowa on:

For example, I typed in “John Smith” and “John Jones” and got the following area code and prefixes in Ames, Iowa. (See below this paragraph.) Most people nowadays have unlimited long distance calling on their cell phones on Saturday and Sunday. So call up the area code and one of the prefixes below and then make up the last four numbers. (Don’t everyone start with 0001.) Or you can enter common last names in the whitepages, and see if anything turns up in Ames, Iowa. Tell each person that Ron Paul wants to end the Iraq War and stop illegal immigration and that there’s a critically important Republican primary in Ames, Iowa for him (and it costs $35 but there’s food and you get to hear him speak).

We can make a difference even though the evil mainstream media is trying to stick us with yet another neocon for president. We can use the Internet, cell phone and our own initiative to make a big difference in this primary so that we have a real American patriot to vote for in the general election instead of another non-election with a corrupt Tweedle-Dee running against a corrupt Tweedle-Dum.
