HOW COME NOBODY mentions anything about ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.. I feel like people are oblivous to this.. This is a TOP THREE concern for americans.. if not in the top 2.. and yet all these letters never mention it... strange to me..
do all of you live in an area unaffected by it?
Here is what I am sending:
"Dear Ms. xxxxx:
I am an unpaid volunteer writing to you in support of presidential candidate Congressman Dr. Ron Paul. Like most Americans, I believe that this country is headed in the wrong direction and Dr. Paul is the only presidential candidate that offers real hope for America. What would make me devote my time, efforts, stamps etc… writing you this Sunday in support of this man?
Dr. Paul is currently in his 10th term in Congress and has proved time and again that he votes on principle before party. He takes his vow to uphold the Constitution very seriously, as well as his commitment to lowering taxes and lowering the size of the federal government.
Here is a brief overview of Congressman Paul’s record:
-He has never voted to raise taxes.
-He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.
-He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.
-He has never voted to raise congressional pay.
-He has never taken a government –paid junket.
-He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.
-He voted against the Patriot Act.
-He voted against the Iraq war.
-He doesn’t participate in the lucrative congressional pension programs.
-He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. Treasury every year.
Congressman Paul is very tough on the fight against illegal immigration. While he agrees that strong border enforcement is crucial, he realizes that we must end the incentives that cause the flood of illegal immigrants to come into this country. This includes ending the free handouts for illegal aliens that we cannot afford and putting an end to birthright citizenship or “anchor babies”.
Dr. Paul has been an outspoken leader against the Iraq war since before the invasion and advocates a humble foreign policy overseas while keeping us strong here at home. The Iraq war has diverted us from our fight against Al Qaeda and our hunt for Osama Bin Laden, which has only strengthened our enemy.
I would like you to consider supporting Dr. Paul for President at the Iowa Straw Poll in Ames on Saturday, August 11 from 10 AM to 6 PM. I invite you to visit his website at

Regards,
Lucius Apuleius
P.S. I have enclosed a ‘Citizens Rule Book’ and a DVD that I made, which will show you more about Dr. Paul. I am a poor DVD maker, just downloaded and cobbled together files off the Internet. I don’t care for much of the music but the content is good. I do like the Hawaiian playing the ukulele at the end—Jake. Just know that I am excited about Dr. Paul for President and hope that you can help us out August 11 in Ames at the Iowa Straw Poll. Once again, I appreciate your time."
