As a Ron Paul-endorsed candidate (http://www.libertypac.net/html/state.html), I am having a moneybomb for my campaign today, August 22. I encourage you to donate either $22.22, $122.22, or $222.22 via my http://voterob.alexanderfamily.org Web site today. Here are some historical events that have taken place on August 22:
* 1642 - Charles I calls the English Parliament traitors. Beginning of the English Civil War.
* 1775 - King George III declares the American colonies to be in open rebellion.
* 1786 - The Hatfield Convention sets forth 17 grievances to the Massachusetts state legislature regarding economic problems such as the rising number of foreclosures, the high cost of lawsuits, heavy land and poll taxes, and high salaries for state officials. A week later, after the legislature ignores the petition, Shays' Rebellion starts.
* 1791 - Beginning of the Haitian Slave Revolution in Saint-Domingue.
* 1831 - Nat Turner's slave rebellion revolt commences just after midnight in Southampton, Virginia.
* 1864 - Twelve nations sign the First Geneva Convention.
* 1952 - The penal colony on Devil's Island permanently closes.
My goal for fundraising today is $2,222. That can be reached by 100 people donating $22.22, 19 people donating $122.22, 10 people donating $222.22, or any combination of the three. If each of you reading this message will please just take a few minutes today and donate on my http://voterob.alexanderfamily.org Web site, we should be able to reach the goal of raising $2,222 today, August 22. Thank you for your support of liberty.
