Frankly, I'm floored. And very, very grateful. Our $500,000 online
fundraising goal for the end of the quarter was reached so fast it took my
breath away. But we can't stop now. So I am raising the bar to $1
million by midnight, September 30th. I am so grateful for all you have done.
Would you help me with this?
Whenever I face a hit piece on tv, or a smear in a newspaper column, I
remember my secret weapon: you. In establishment politics, people make
campaign contributions because they want something: a contract, a
subsidy, a special-interest deal. But the thousands of people who contribute
to this campaign want no favors from big government -- which must come
at the expense of their fellow citizens, and sometimes our soldiers'
lives. They want only what is their God-given, natural, and
constitutional right: their freedom.
What a difference from the other campaigns. What a refreshing change
from politics as usual. What a sign of the reborn American freedom that
can be ours, and our children's, and our grandchildren's.
Aggressive wars, income taxes, national IDs, domestic spying, torture
regimes, secret prisons, Federal Reserve manipulation -- we don't have
to take it any more.
And the next step to not taking it is that $1 million goal. Please give
www.ronpaul2008.com/donate/ as much as you can, before midnight on
Sunday, September 30th.
There are two reasons: 1) We need the money. As we move into the Iowa
caucuses and the New Hampshire primary, then South Carolina, California,
Texas, and all the rest, we need your support. We can't duplicate the
spending of the big boys, and we don't have to, thanks to the internet
and our magnificent army of volunteers.
But we need constant website improvements, phone banks, voter
registration and get out the vote efforts, mailings, travel, printings, many
small offices, targeted TV and radio ads, legal and accounting help, and
101 other things. And without donors like you, we can't do a darn thing.
2) I want to make the mainstream media sit up and take notice. They did
when we beat John McCain for cash-on-hand in the last quarter. This
quarter, we can really shock them -- if you help. Our total can show the
sort of enthusiasm, organization, and grassroots support that will
chill every big-government backer, and warm the heart of every lover of
freedom -- and open the eyes of the media.
Please, help me win a victory for liberty with your most generous gift.
You and I are engaged in an historic enterprise. It is growing in
power and influence by the day and by the hour. But it will stutter to a
stop without people like you. I need your help. Our cause needs your
help. We can make $1 million. We can win this thing. Please help me do it.
