Ron Paul Christmas Lights Sign

[kumochappy]

ah man, priceless. Great idea, well done :)

[theiMatthewOne]

Your cat seems cute

[mzDOLL2u]

You rock!  Thanks.

[agrv8ion]

"Incidentally, most cats love Ron Paul."

My two cats approve this message.

[innulja]

I like the cat, comfortably sitting and enjoying his revolution!

[sqhschief]

That is awesome!

[jeffdcarruthers]

year round baby......

[pgadeb]

very creative...reposting on my FB wall for this Christmas...hope it inspires more signs thanks for sharing.

[ImRamro]

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

We made a Ron Paul for 2007 as well.

It can be seen on "Christmas lights @ my house 2007" if you want to take a look.

I hope we can make a Rand Paul sign in the near future!

[sonic88xb]

NICE



[leilabeauty]

This is great! thanks for uploading. ive learned alot and was inspired to do it. Me and my brother are opening a business few months from now, and ive been surfing the net to see some samples of signage, been thinking if ill get a neon signage or led. but after seeing your video, i think dont ill still be needing those signage, i personally will have a personal touch on the signage that we'll be using for our business.. thanks again

[PresidentRich]

That is so cool. Great job!

[leafwatch]

great how-to, THANKS!

[luckybrand88]

Even better if the lights were LED.

[cowbrown1]

Well done :)

[tkubic46]

i'm doing it!

[chrisknows]

lol ron paul 2012

[GRUMPY92105]

thats really creative b4 i saw this video i had in mine that I was gonna make one because Im dj so im making one that it would say mu name on it so is way better to make you own and cheaper too thats a great i dea

[datalorez]

Most cats do love Ron Paul!!!

haha nice video

[Insidious1]

Good job man. I made one similar, but I just used snake lights or runner lights, whatever they're called (the ones in the long plastic tubes)

[divinityblue]

i LOVE the Ron Paul light bright ^_^

[Jae0o0]

AMAZING

[Liberty4Ever]

Awesome!

Great bang for the buck, in materials invested, and time invested! Good use of computer technology to make the sign professional and relatively fast to build.

I'm helping to make a Ron Paul Christmas light display that will be 6' X 16', and should ultimately switch between several different Ron Paul messages.

[m015094]

I originally thought this was a John Hodgman radiocast of "This American Life." You sound just like him!!

Anyway, great sign!

[deloreanz]

I love the kitty that helped make the sign.

Great idea for a cheap but stunning RP sign!

[Hroark7]

Awesome,and yes your voice is so calming,

have a dooby and make this sign!

[StarsInsideMe]

I love your voice.. it's very calming! lol

Great idea and thanks for taking the time to document how you did it so others can do it too :)

Go Ron Paul!!!

[STRINGMAGICK]

Great narration! LMAO! Great vid. Ron Paul 2008.

[tammyisat]

that gives me an idea to say merry christmas from " and add all of our names" Big sign? yes, but it would be a great project this summer!!!!!!!

[pimpjuice898]

Awesome job dude, I might do this as a project over my upcoming Christmas break

[mcsenget]

Great video! I like the Sleigh Ride music too.

[Haliotro]

haha hilarious music in the background

[HVACSoldier]

I noticed that the cat was helping you put that sign together.

[dakgoalie38]

I was trying to print out the sign, but I can't figure out how to pixelate it. I shrank it and enlargened it multiple times yet the pixels remained the same.

[americahashope]

You can use the files that are mentioned in the about this video section.

[dakgoalie38]

Okay, I found it. Thanks again! :)

[dakgoalie38]

Foam core boards 3/16 in. thick are easier to find.  Would they still work?

[americahashope]

you'd have to test it. Sounds like it would be good material for a portable sign ;)

[dakgoalie38]

Okay, thanks. Also, how did you attach the sign to the house?

[americahashope]

Lot's of big nails, screws.

[dakgoalie38]

Okay. Thanks again! :) Hopefully I can have it completed by December 16.

[ParapaDrifter]

Merry Cristmas and a Happy Paul New Year!

[geminiatx04]

This is a great idea, I am going to get started on one too. Now how to make it portable yet efficient, LED's and some good batteries, I guess I will have to figure that part out. If you are a member of the meetup in your city you should organize a lighted sign making party, I bet a lot of people would be interested.

[liberteebell]

What a wonderful sign! Will you make me one, please?? ;)

[edward9145]

It is just amazing the devotion by the supporters for Ron Paul. So much talent and more to come I'm sure. Nov 5th, Dec 16, Ron Paul Blimp, all the meet up groups, all the Ron Paul supporters waving signs at other candidates functions. This is really a miracle this is really all coming together as it is.

Like Ron Paul has stated, He is just very lucky to be apart of it.

[bluto20]

i tried printing out slimjims on my printer but for some reason i could not get 3 images in a landscape layout. if any of you wanna show or tell me how. please message me. thank you.

[danieldeibler]

Fantastic! I'm tooootally doing this!

[liberteebell]

Heh, this would make a good addition to your Ron Paul car!

[danieldeibler]

I was thinking that :-P

Totally illegal though.

[liberteebell]

"Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice. Tolerance in the face of tyranny is no virtue." -Barry Goldwater"

[danieldeibler]

@liberteebell

Yes, and Ron Paul Car in impound is no advertisement.

[tishjo]

It brings tears to my eyes! Inspiring! Will probably also bring tears to my husband's eyes when I tell him he has to make one for me, LOL!

[SendARope]

OUTSTANDING!

[tweetsiebird]

Great video, and I love the cat...what typical kitty behaviour!!

[PunkForRonPaul]

my kitty always sits on my craft projects ^x^ sometimes she walks in the paints and makes kitty prints heh.

Nice video by the way - that's some tedious business that you do but it turns out pretty excellent. AND ITS FOR RON!

[N3ATS]

Great job! Just one suggestion..

You may want to remove the paper after installing the lights. The computer paper probably will not hold up in the rain/wind.

[americahashope]

Haha, yes you need to do that. We forgot to show that part in the video.

[RandleEl11]

Wow...this is an excellent video. Thank you for taking the time to make this sign and for talking the time to upload a tutorial. God bless.

[kaksonen]

cool work. you should do a 'home improvement' version as a joke as well :)

[nowar08]

great idea, im making 2

[americahashope]

Do you want a couple of pre-printed templates? They are all one peice and a huge time saver. Let me know and I'll mail you a couple for about $5 a peice to cover shipping.

[nowar08]

im in the process of printing mine now thanks,

and ive sent all my cash to ron

[americahashope]

no worries! It's just a little easier this way, but if your printer is doing the job, great! send me a picture of the finished project if you want.

[LetFreedomRlng]

Most cats love Ron Paul!!! lol Great sign... I just may do it on Thanksgiving break to prepare people for the Tea Party on Dec. 16th!!!

[dnHooligan]

Ron Paul or Revolution 2008

[Benaiahh]

hmmmm that's awesome

[americanism]

Thanks again for the idea. I meant to leave my video response above, but I think when I responded with it elswhere it automatically was removed here. So I will leave it here since you gave me the idea for it. Sorry that I said your name was "America's Hope" and not "America Has Hope". I just noticed that.

[americahashope]

Awesome effort on the portable sign! We love it!  Thanks for sharing. I hope others make some festive signs too.

[Anntink]

Awsome! This will be my next project!

[noragirl123]

O'man, this campaign is the best in the history of world. Where else would you find a political campaign where the participants would spend this much time and effort to make instructional videos for the message of liberty. This is truly inspiring.

[necro3570]

WELL DONE!!

I will be starting my sign tomorrow.

[MooseOfReason]

"Incidentally, most cats love Ron Paul."

Hahahahaha.

[radiofriendly]

beautifully done---verges on being so well done that it's creepy....no, it's beautiful cause it's for Ron Paul!

[gregalabama]

if you can tell me how to get it to print those 16 pages that would be great. i cant get photoshop to print in poster layout. i dont seem to have that option.

[americahashope]

I think it's a function of the printer driver. On my Epson 1280 there's a semi-invisible option to print in poster mode.  See if you have something similar. Let me know if that works!

[bc679]

I had the same problem. If you Google 'grandutils posterprint' you'll find a product called PosterPrint (with free trial download) that will handle the multi-page printing very nicely. The free version prints the product's name on your poster, but that doesn't affect its usefulness for this application.

[Puke0010]

For those with less cash, use some reflective tape on a regular yard sign.

Great job.

[shiftslide1]

Someone should tell that guy one of the lights on the front of his house has burned out. But seriously great video.

[americahashope]

haha! It's fixed now ;)

[Rosedawn]

ack, more people need to see this! How come that dumb "make a tombstone" vid got featured, but not this one???!!!

[Seiku]

Its political. The other thing was for halloween or whatever and if this guy posts becomes featured then each candidate may have or must have a supporter post aswell. I dont think Youtube wants to be biased for its users.

[annettefreemanusa]

10 points there for dedication , creativity , effort , humour and patriotism. straight A. well done. awesome.

[bluedonkeyman]

I would like someone to figure out the total cost of man/woman-hours that people all over the world donate to Ron Paul. He must have the richest campaign drive if you add it all up

[ProspectorSam]

That cat was chillaxing like RP after a Fox News text poll results announcement.

RP 08 FTW

[RationalLiberty]

Sweet, awesome idea!

Remember, Remember, the 5th of November!

[Mobusapollo]

I have a Ron Paul lightbright on my fireplace. I want to make a Ron Paul light up shirt.

That is awesome.

RON PAUL REVOLUTION!!!

[bigbearliving]

Great Idea for the Holidays,Thanks for the well laid out design.Can take with me anywhere as long as I have an inverter hooked to the car battery.Great portable for sign waiving.

[bc679]

This is thoroughly awesome. I'm going to do this. Thanks for providing the link to the images. Google 'grandutils posterprint' for a product (with free trial download) that will handle the multi-page printing very nicely.

P.S. Don't saw between your supports.

[heyerstandards]

LOOKS GREAT!!

My daughter suggests making the "Ron Paul" with Green lights so it's more Christmas-like. Just DO IT!!

[LawrenciumTradera]

Amazing work! I have to do something similar...

[fluoridatedbrainsoup]

Incidentally, most cats love Ron Paul.

I wish my father did construction projects with me when I was a kid. I wonder how rare that is??

[tamarin2k]

How about ultra bright LEDs

[waasabi]

Beautiful!! and a great idea. Happy Holidays!

[waasabi]

"Incidently most cats love Ron Paul" =)

[DevBlazed]

u got ripped off (50$)

[DCxxRay]

this dude is a hard core ron paul supporter

RON PAUL 08

[DevBlazed]

Florida is Ron Paul territory (looks like a florida house)

[sleuth51]

How can Ron Paul not win with supporters like this! This is just amazing. I've got to e-mail it to Sean Hannity. You're the best! Thanks so much.

[shortfu]

I see the use of child labor in there but for Ron Paul, it's all good. :)

[RonPaulLive]

Excellent video!!! Just included it in the RonPaulLive(.com) toolbar. Stay in the loop and get it today.

[LovelyYTRocks]

Hm.

I want to have a huge-er one.

[AllanStevo1]

Great idea. I'm gonna email a few friends now to tell them that we're following your lead.

[ljhudd]

Hahaaa!! Great job, this is awesome :)

[tracysaboe]

Wow! Tracy

[Silver2Bullet]

lol ace!

[RonPaulClips]

Ron Paul and his supporters are up against a huge, well established, well oiled machine of greedy corruption!

We MUST be focused and united and ALWAYS keep in mind that we are on the side on freedom.

We are peacefully promoting and demanding only what our great nation was founded on & stands for!

We Are True American Patriots!

[meilingedm]

Nice use of Recycled wood and plastic!

And it gets the Ron Paul Message out!

5*

[fiddler1953]

He's catchin on, I'm tellin ya!

hahaha

[kayokleptocrats]

Great Job!

[Mandrik]

You're awesome. Great work!

[Mojopokey]

I'm impressed! This guy must have his own TV show. Keep up the good work!

[gregalabama]

Awesome idea. I now have a project fro Sunday and I guess I'll keep up with the Jones' and put my Christmas lights up on Thanksgiving!

[walternyc]

awesome

[lochlan]

Very well done! Support Ron Paul!

[D4LIEN]

Very clever. 5 stars.

[Roobah]

I thought it was just MY cat who loved Ron Paul. (It's my cat's favorite place to sleep, on a few spare signs I have sitting in the living room... he also loves to treat my signs like a slip-n-slide skating across the room and sliding along the Ron Paul Sign.)

[americahashope]

haha! Next video...cats for Ron Paul!

[TheWord777]

Great video and a great idea.

[jpatrich]

I'd love to see someone do this with the larger Christmas lights

[TheUnworthy]

Fantastic

[RonPaulVolunteer]

Dude!!!  SELL these!!!

[JiveDadson]

Cat not included.

[PlzPeopleWakeUp]

Excellent job on the video. Loved the narration.

Cool sign.

RP08+110507=POTUSRP09

[djbAnks]

Thanks for this awesome instructional video!

Great cause too.. ;)

RonPaul2008!com

[mrpickles4pres]

How did you think of this?

[gillybymarriage]

Ouchy.

The narration voice hurt my ears.

BUT....I like the idea.

[PHenry500]

Sweet! I think I'm gonna make one too!

[scudiac]

great idea!

[uberscientist]

Awesome sign!

[WaitsWeights]

lol, "earn brownie points by cleaning up after all your drilling." Ah, for everything else there's master card.

[CharlesALindbergh]

Great patriot idea in the Ron Paul Revolution. Have you uploaded a version of this video int the HowTo & DIY category? It would go right to the top there. Lots of Ron Paul videos should be uploaded in additional categories like Entertainment, People, and Music and not just in News and Politics. Spread the word that we can reach many more patriots that way.

[vocalbrush]

HAHA AWESOME

[WeBeGood06]

Wow, nice video.

[cristianorem]

This is awesome :D

[cocytus2]

that is beautiful.

[amoradaus]

PS, my cat does the same thing. Why do they do that?

[amoradaus]

Yay, I never put up lights, but this totally inspired me :)

[jtogea]

This is GREAT!! I love this idea. Way to go! RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT 2008!!

[d00bied00]

This whole video just puts me in a great mood. I am honored to call you my fellow patriot.

Ron Paul 2008!

[RonPaulClips]

I love it!!

Go Ron Paul!

Dr. Paul is the only one that wants to talk about THE REAL ISSUES WE ALL CARE ABOUT.

HILARIOUS parody video on politics & the MSM:

/watch?v=3jIIbO_8kyo

[kern802]

Great sign, great video!

[fortyfive4546]

Very nicely, I like it.

[LastAmericanPatriot]

AB FAB !!

[endmark]

Congrats! Two questions??? How many can you make a day, and...what is your price! (Just kidding..sort of.)

[ratava911]

[tjwestbr]

Great idea! I love it!

[Cindy4Paul]

I Love it!

[Sclorch]

great video!

[boygenis]

execellent, thanks for sharing

[lowycr7]

Looks great!

[jokertim777]

Great idea, great finished product, and you even put some humor into the DIY video. You represent RP well.

[getl0st]

Awesome I tell you, Awesome!!!

[gagnonstudio]

Awesome, loved the vid!

RP2008

[father963]

Very Well Done. What are you doing for the New Year?

[jjschless]

Great job, great video.

[lopez934]

"We wouldn't want any publicity out of this, would we?"

hahaha! Classic!

[oyate1960]

Very creative, right up there with Earnie's instructional videos.

[mavtek]

This is Awesome as hell!

[eloquensanity61]

That is cool

[pkpdjh]

I think one of the college groups needs to start taking pre-paid orders for these. I think mass-production is the best way to do this.

ASU?

[sephy444]

awesome!

[mkauai2]

LOL, great job guys, love the kitchy style and music

[JLowry]

Wow, great tutorial and sign!

Merry Christmas!

[bryanxt]

Love it! Nice to see the cat helping... :)

[Syren1234]

That's awesome! It's like a Lite Brite for freedom!!

[Schmauey]

LMAO! Exactly!
