David W Hedrick for ThisNovember5th.com?

[SwordOfShannarah]

A lot of candidates are asking to be included in the ThisNovember5th.com money bomb. I'll post some here and ask for feedback.

First up -

http://www.davidwhedrick.com

YouTube - Town Hall Meeting with U.S. Congressman Brian Baird

Should he be included? yes/no

 

[Reloaderx3]

I can't get a read on this guy he talks about the constitution a lot but it is so broadley used I don't know what to think.

If he has any supporters here, show your guy some support. Why he is good for Nov 5th?

 

[bucfish]

He says the right things on his issues pages.

 

[angelatc]

Yep. I vote yes.

 

[Cowlesy]

Demands a vote up or down to declare war.

like it.

thumbs-up.

Personally, I think we'd be better off removing candidates from ThisNovember5th instead of adding them.

I'd personally like to see it whittled down to just our three or four most viable.

I would like to see alot more added. I still think before we are done, there will be a list of every liberty approved candidate around the country that gets on board for a one day event.

Imagine if the Ron Paul wing of the GOP raised over $10 million in a day for the 20 or so candidates running for Congress and Governor. That would be like a line in the sand, I think that is exactly what is needed to get the GOP running scared and trying to include us eventually. And eventually we take over and toss the leadership out.

Who gets to decide who is "liberty approved"? Frankly, I don't find Chris Simcox very liberating.

And imagine if unicorns and leprechauns were real.

It's nice to dream; but eventually I think it is important to be practical. There is nothing wrong with using our brains and knowing who isn't going to win; people like McBerry, Simcox, Medina, Dennis, etc.

Wouldn't you rather see four very viable candidates raise $100,000 each than twenty candidates, most of whom are no-hopers, raise like $10,000 each?

I have work to do so unfortunately I can’t stick around, but please let me know if you see anymore no-hopers.

I won't say, yes, based on just this response, but it's a start, David! Good luck.

 

[RonPaulFanInGA]

but please let me know if you see anymore no-hopers.

Well, there is this race up in the pacific northwest where a candidate is running against a seven-term incumbent who has nearly 600,000 dollars cash-on-hand and who won by about thirty percentage points in 2008. Probably not one of our movement's more likely 2010 victories, I think, though it'd be nice to see an upset.

 

[celeste]

Yes for David

He believes in the Constitution. Bottom line. Lets get behind him !!

Simcox = Audit the Fed, Secure the Borders, Constitutional wars only, etc. He's pretty much in line with Ron Paul down the line.

As for no-hopers.. sounds familiar. Where have I heard that one before?

Unless I see a sling of no votes I'll add him shortly..

 

[angelatc]

I just emailed you offline, but I'd really like to see Alicia Healy, a candidate for Columbus CIty Council, included.

I have a lot of COlumbus people on my facebook page, and I'd be happy to work it a little.

 

[Flash]

Yes.

 

[TCE]

We can't put Glen Bradley on ThisNovember5th? Even if he has no hope, he is one of us. RPFanInGA has this one right on the money, though. Don't you think Rand could use that $2150 pledged to Simcox? Too many people have no chance on that list have no chance at winning. If that is our goal, to gather every Liberty Candidate we can find, we should be adding at least 30 more no-hopers to that list.

To be honest, Schiff would classify as one of those no-hopers. Are you guys prepared to take Schiff off that list?

We the People can overcome anything!

I’m a first time poster but have been active in reading the posts here for a good while. While this discussion is about adding David Hedrick to the forum, it to me is a lot more than that.

We need (1) good “No-Hoper” from every state to rise to the top if they believe in the same principles we do. With only (3) good candidates we can’t make changes that need to be made. Ron Paul needs a lot more candidates with his principles! Not just “3” in Washington DC to make “Real Changes”.

I never thought in my lifetime there would be an Obama as President. He was a “No-Hoper” and he came out on top. We can/better do the same.

So, by limiting my contribution to only a few is saying “I want this person to win” but what can they do alone? Nothing… I like most of the people on the list, but I’m with the underdog this time and there are a lot like me feeling the same way. Most of them were in DC on 9-12-2009.

Lower the donation level and I’ll donate to them all, or I’ll work my way up the list from the no-hopers first to those that are on the top. One of the newspapers in the Pacific Northwest made a comment yesterday “A vote for Brian Baird on the health care bill is a vote for David W. Hedrick in 2010.

Let’s get behind anyone and everyone on the list! They did not expect more than 5-10 thousand in DC on 9-12 but we came. We all knew what needed done.. We showed up because people pulled together and that day we were all one voice! November 5th we need to be one voice.. Fact is most No-Hopers are No-Hopers because we don't get off our checkbooks and donate! I'm going to do my part! Will you?

How about getting 250,000 people to donate 25.00 to each person? Don't tell me we can't get 250,000 people to do it! What are you doing reading this? You should be texting, twittering, Blogging and going door to door telling friends and family to donate on November 5th. If they don't have a PC invite them over..

We can become one once again.

Ok, now back to blogs and twitter to do my part!

P.S. Kokesh you have a passion that without $$$ people will vote for you!

Donate Nov 5th

Just went to your website. Glad to see someone not afraid to say where they stand. While I don't agree with all your issues, however you got me on being honest even if it may cost you some votes, and you have to know that! You would have me 100% but my wife is not prolife.

There are a few people I will donate to on November 5th and you are one of them. If they don't put you on the list I'll do it from your website.

Don't give up, remember that David had little chance of overcoming Goliath but someone was looking over him and that same person is looking over you.


I wanted Change in 2008 and I got ripped off..

Simcox = Audit the Fed, Secure the Borders, Constitutional wars only, etc. He's pretty much in line with Ron Paul down the line.

And what is Simcox's position on the Iraq war or the PATRIOT act? Major issues very conviently ignored on Simcox's official site's issues page. About the only ones too. Gives me the impression he is trying to keep us on his side while not alienating the hardcore republican primary votes; most of whom are pro-war. If I find out that he is indeed anti-Iraq war and anti-PATRIOT act, he'll have my full support (though I still believe he won't win.) He is good on the Federal Reserve.

RPFanInGA has this one right on the money, though. Don't you think Rand could use that $2150 pledged to Simcox? Too many people have no chance on that list have no chance at winning. If that is our goal, to gather every Liberty Candidate we can find, we should be adding at least 30 more no-hopers to that list.

Thank you. I don't know why stating the obvious, and the people debating me about it know it is true too, is like holy water to a vampire.

McBerry is polling 2%. Simcox is down 50 points. Medina is at 3% and running against an incumbent Governor and a woman who has proved that she can win a statewide election in Texas. Dennis is a republican running in mother-frickin' San Francisco...the rich republican who challenged Pelosi in 2008 got less than 10% of the vote.

It really is just unfathomable, flabbergasting, why some people just refuse to accept the very real realities of some of these races.
