As you can see, we have moved from 2nd to 3rd place. The F16 pilot somehow changed the name of his video to say "Help Our Heros" and they had a calculated 1,079 views to our 79 views yesterday. Now keep in mind, that views are not the deciding factor, but "Kona Inspired" does not let us to see our vote count, so this is the only thing we can use to determine where we are.
As a veteran, I am happy to see that this F16 pilot is trying to bring awareness to military members that suffer from depression. It is a tough life. I am not surprised at all that he can get 1,079 views in a day. I have calculated that if you counted all of the Facebook followers of children's pages that is currently named on the H.O.P.E. flag, we could get nearly 140,000 votes if they all voted just one day. Not daily, one day!
Sure it is not impossible, but it is somewhat improbable based on how Facebook works. A family can post on their child's page to vote, and they may only reach approximately 10% of their followers. That is why I stress to SHARE daily. When you vote daily, it counts as one, but if you VOTE & SHARE DAILY, you may have others that click on the video and vote. Please SHARE DAILY.
If I get invited, it will not be because of my own individual achievements, it will be a community effort, as well as it should be since the total community is affected by birth defects and needs to know more to prevent them. You all are my voice, and I need you yelling from the top of roofs.
I did get some advice for the Facebook page admins of The People That Inspire Humanity. They say they get so many more hits from videos that people can directly click and watch from Facebook. Quote"...videos get a much better reaction when they are embedded onto Facebook. People are more likely to view them and then decide if they wish to participate in the external links." I will try that today!
Thank you to all of you that do this. I am not sure if you have noticed, but if you are my friend on Facebook and I see that you shared, I try to acknowledge that. You are my HEROS! Thank you for taking the 20 seconds to SHARE our story. You are amazing!
Be ready for tomorrow. I will be releasing a video that is a must watch. I will give you a hint, "I Am Official!" See ya tomorrow!
