Ron Pauls across America: Candidates that need our support.

Sounds fine to me but I would suggest having more people look at it. I would recommend a bit more fire in it but im not an expert.

I know we have some excellent writers on this board. I'd welcome complete re-writes. This is what will be released to the news papers... perhaps I should mention how Ron Paul has inspired me to run again for this position?
 
"perhaps I should mention how Ron Paul has inspired me to run again for this position?"
Definetly, the FTers and Rudy supporters will be flabbergasted. Ive personally never heard of something like this happening and I dont think very many people have.
 
Someone was asking me about my political experience... so I guess it would be good to list it here since its public knowledge anyway:

2003: ran for state leg. as libertarian, 24 years of age. got 19% against an incumbent democrat in a 90% democratic district.

2005: elected at-large rep. Libertarian Party of Louisiana

2006: ran for U.S. rep. as a libertarian, 27 years of age
got 2% in a crowded field of candidates.

2006: elected vice-chairman, libertarian party of louisiana

2007: vice-chairman, Committee to Elect T. Lee Horne, III for Governor

2007: elected at-large rep., Libertarian Party of Louisiana

Good work and good luck Brent. In regards to your press release, website, strategy etc I would try to closely emulate Ron Paul. Include you tube videos of any debates or speeches you may have and maybe a few or Dr. Paul so people know you are running as a Ron Paul defend the Constitution candidate. As his message gets out you should be able to garner a large amount of support simply on the back of his name recognition. And it will be mutually beneficial for you and Dr. Paul as you drill home the ideas of smaller government and more personal liberties to those out there who haven't heard of him.
 
Do we wanna do just new people running for office or do we want to include people running for reelection like Jim Guest?
 
Jim Guest
position:state rep Missouri 5th district
running against:whoever Jeff Roe props up
Going for:reelection

Heres a two minute re-work. If you like the direction its going, let me know and I can try to put more into it. I went with more of an interview format with italics to distinguish. It really isnt my best work but again the last speech I wrote for a condidate was explaining a DUI and I had about a week to write it.

Brent Sanders of Alexandria has formally announced his candidacy for 5th District Congressional Representative. Sanders a graduate of Holy Savior Menard High School holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology from Louisiana College and has held several local political positions.

Reducing the size of the federal government by voting against pork barrel projects and working to reform or shut down programs which do not meet there goals are his top priorities. “I am not willing to make promises just to receive a vote.” Sanders was quoted "I want to go to Washington to work for the people of the 5th Congressional District and restore their faith in Representative government by never voting for unnecessary spending, raising taxes or voting contrary to the Constituition,"
Sanders is not afraid to take on difficult issues like Social Security. “Our congress should have fixed the system years ago when it was first pointed out that there was a problem and not pass the problem on to future generations.”

“We must shore up the system so it can meet the growing demand the baby-boomers will be placing on the system and so the federal government can meet its obligations to all citizens.” He added, “In the long term, we must move toward privatization so the public can invest their hard earned dollar in a system that yields a much higher level of return. Social Security does not allow an accumulation of wealth. You pay in but are not allowed to hand down the fruits of your labor to love ones. Privatization fixes this glaring problem but first we have to meet our obligations to those who have paid into this system.”

When questioned about the War in Iraq Sanders was quick to point out, “ The majority now opposes the war, people shouldn’t forget the Democratic and Republican Leaders in Washington almost all voted unanimously to go to war. " Sanders added “ I would like to see an immediate withdrawal of troops but I realize this would be difficult and could take time.” “Our sons and daughters are in harms way.” He said with some emotion, “Our goal was to remove Saddam Hussein, his corrupt leadership, and eliminate any weapons of mass destruction. While no weapons of mass destruction were found, our mission has essentially been accomplished.” He added, “ Our country should not engage in nation building and that is exactly what we are doing in Iraq. We have stabilized the new Iraqi Government as best we can and now it is time to let the Iraqi people determine the outcome of their future.”

Further on his lists on changes he feels that the government must stop subsidies to the oil companies. He can see no reason why the federal government should continue to subsidize these oil companies while they continue to net major profits at the cost of the consumer. “By removing oil subsidies it would create a fairer market place in which alternative energy could freely develop as the market demands.”

“Illegal immigration and the burden it places on our country is extreme. Existing laws need to be enforced. Immigration should be allowed but illegal immigration should be prevented.” he said, while he also feels, “ Immigrants have always had an important role to play in our country.” While he opposes using military to patrol our borders with Mexico for illegal immigrants he is not opposed to increasing the size and training of our Border Patrol.

“Our school systems should not be required to educate people who are here illegally. Our hospitals should not be required to provide services, other than emergencies, to illegal immigrants at the expense of tax payers. This charity to illegal aliens needs to stop now before the resources it drains cost Americans their prosperity or worse, lives”"
