If they expected us to retire quietly from the scene, the political elite are in for a surprise.

Today I am making some very big announcements.

First, from August 31 to September 2 in Minneapolis, we will host a handful of events that will shake the political establishment. Everything will culminate on Tuesday with the official launch of the Campaign for Liberty (http://campaignforliberty.com) at the Rally for the Republic.

The Campaign for Liberty will be the largest organization for peace, freedom, the Constitution, and sound money in American history. It will launch in grand fashion with lots of special guests and - if the early television and print inquiries we’ve received are any indication - plenty of media attention.

I would like to personally invite you and your family to join me and thousands of others in Minneapolis for these events and send a message to the Republican Party.

Tickets will go on sale for the Rally for the Republic (http://www.rallyfortherepublic.com/) this Friday, July 25 @ 10AM CST. We want this to be an unforgettable day, so we are holding a ticket bomb all day Friday in the tradition of our famous money bombs. How many seats can we sell on the first day?

In patriotic fashion all tickets will cost $17.76, so you can afford to bring the whole family.

This leads me to the second big announcement. After measuring the excitement and enthusiasm, we decided that the Williams Arena at the University of Minnesota was just too small to hold you. Therefore, we are making a significant upgrade. The Rally for the Republic will now take place at the Target Center, the largest arena in Minneapolis!
(http://www.targetcenter.com/default.asp?targetcenter=88&urlkeyword=Arena_Info)
This promises to be the most spirited and provocative political event of the year! We held some very large rallies during the presidential campaign, but I have never attempted anything of this scale before. Its success rests entirely in your hands.

Later this week I will announce two internationally renowned musicians as headliners for the Rally for the Republic. We’ll also be joined by rock star Aimee Allen (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBCKMTo210k), NBC’s Tucker Carlson, Barry Goldwater Jr., Gov. Gary Johnson, conservative stalwart Grover Norquist, former Reagan deputy Attorney General Bruce Fein, presidential historian Doug Wead, MTV’s Adam Curry, musician Mark Scibilia (http://www.marcscibilia.com/), and Frank Sinatra impersonator Rick Ellis (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yBw5mmy_ho). Other special guests will be announced soon.

My staff has been working overtime to provide you with three full days of entertainment. Please visit the schedule page of the website and read all about upcoming events. We also have a lodging page to help you find accommodations in Minneapolis.

Together we are taking back our government and restoring the republic. Please join me in Minneapolis to kickoff the Campaign for Liberty and support our Revolution. Can I count on you to be there?

In Liberty,

P.S. I know that you have done so much already, but with both major party nominees threatening to lead us into bankruptcy at home and more wars abroad, the success of the Rally for the Republic and the launch of the Campaign for Liberty is crucial. Please do what you can to be in Minneapolis August 31 - September 2 and send a loud and clear message of freedom, peace, and prosperity.

Wow. Their prior digs (Williams Areena) had a seating capacity of ~ 14,000. They were worried that was going to be too small :eek:. Target Center has a capacity of ~ 20,000 :D.


Later this week I will announce two internationally renowned musicians as headliners for the Rally for the Republic.

The anticipation is killing me. Who could it be :confused:?


We’ll also be joined by rock star [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBCKMTo210k"]Aimee Allen (http://www.targetcenter.com/default.asp?targetcenter=88&urlkeyword=Arena_Info), NBC’s Tucker Carlson, Barry Goldwater Jr., Gov.

Right on. I hope Tucker leaves his ho's at home this time :p

OMG I saw the email just a second ago and had to check in here.

This should be wild.

It is hard to imagine how fricking pissed off the GOP must be if one of their own refuses to get badged Libertarian to get his 5%, Stays in the race.

Does not endorse the presumptive nominee.

And then holds a rally in the same fricking city as the convention with 20,000+ people.

Have you ever been at the second best party in town? The GOP is going to know how it feels.

We are considering a chartered bus from Albany and go down 90 for stops to pick up people. PM me to coordinate.

Too bad school will be in session then. :( Plus we're seeing Jethro Tull in Denver about 2 weeks before that.

Oh well... I did get to go see Ron at the Elk's Club here in Bismarck in the front row. That's about as good as it gets.
