Ron Paul 2008 — Hope for America

Dear Ron Paul Patriots:

Congratulations to all on our exciting finish at the caucuses last night!  We were able to help Dr. Paul beat one of our main rivals, Rudy Giuliani, two to one, while achieving a respectable double-digit finish.  Additionally, we were able to achieve a virtual three-way tie for third place, only a few percent shy of Fred Thompson and John McCain.

You might also be excited to learn that Dr. Paul was the top vote-getter among independent voters, despite only being able to come to Iowa nine times.  We can also be proud of all the first-time voters Dr. Paul has attracted to the political process.

We accomplished exactly what we needed to by demonstrating that we are running a legitimate organization with a tremendous candidate and an infectious message.  We are poised to spring into New Hampshire and the Ron Paul freight train is steaming toward Super Tuesday with a thrilling amount of momentum.

Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to the cause of freedom and Dr. Paul’s message of liberty.  The campaign would not be where it is today without your leadership, service and self-sacrifice.

Best regards,
Dr. Drew Ivers
Iowa State Chairman
Ron Paul 2008 PCC

Thanks to everyone who participated in our Ron Paul Walk Offs in Iowa.  Over 200 people total came to Des Moines, Waterloo, and Davenport in Iowa.  Everyone who participated really worked hard, and I cannot begin to explain the dedication to this campaign that each individual demonstrated by marching in the cold, wet, snow ALL DAY!  Your efforts and time will never go unnoticed.  Thank you!

Thursday, January 3^rd  7:00 P.M.

I support Congressman Ron Paul for President because he gives me hope for America’s future.  He promotes maximum individual freedom and limited federal government – exactly what the founders envisioned in our constitution. 

Ron Paul is a Christian.  He’s a veteran.  He’s a pro-life doctor who has himself delivered over 4,000 babies.  In 10 terms as a U.S. Congressman, he’s never voted for a tax increase or an unbalanced budget.  He’ll secure our borders and end the government giveaways that encourage people to come here illegally in the first place.   

Our national debt is now over trillion and as our government keeps borrowing and printing more money, the value of our dollars keeps going down, making everything more expensive.  Dr. Paul will save us trillions of dollars by bringing our troops home to keep America safe.  We won the war.  He’s the only one who’s committed to keeping our priceless troops out of nation-building and policing actions that we can’t even afford.  Everyone likes to say “I support the troops”.  But who do the troops support?  According to the government, the most donations from members of the armed forces are going to…Ron Paul – and by a huge margin. 

Sometimes people come in to the Caucus and they think “well, I like so-and-so but he can’t win so I’m voting for one of the front-runners”.  But this isn’t a horse race.   There’s no prize for you if you vote for the one who ends up winning tonight.  In fact, our first-in-the-nation role here in Iowa isn’t to select the ultimate winner.  Our role is to narrow the field, and tell the rest of the nation who we think they should be paying attention to.  After tonight I’m sure there will be attention paid to the front-runners.  We have a unique opportunity here tonight to tell the rest of America that Ron Paul’s message of simply following the constitution and limiting federal government is something they should give a listen to.  Please join me in voting for Ron Paul. 

[You can modify this to fit your style to make it your own.  Remember your target audience is undecided voters and people who are interested in Ron Paul but are tempted to vote for a “front-runner”.  How long you can speak is at the discretion of the Caucus Chair running your precinct.  One minute or at most two is sufficient.  We recommend you make eye contact and speak from the heart and from memory rather than simply reading, if possible.]
