The other day I sent a letter, not an email but a physical snail mail letter, to Senator Jim DeMint encouraging him to endorse Ron Paul for President.
Typically in local politics the squeaky wheel gets the grease but in all levels of politics politicians themselves are pretty savvy at ensuring they have support for reelection as well.
It would be awesome if certain representatives and senators were flooded with letters from all over the country encouraging them to support Dr. Paul for President. A tremendous outpouring of support from the grassroots (aka us) could go a long way in tipping someones hand or solidifying their decision to support and endorse Dr. Paul.
Here is what my letter said (I wouldn't copy it because them getting the same letter over and over wouldn't be helpful):
1-September-2011
Jim DeMint
US Senator, South Carolina
167 Russell
United States Senate
Washington, DC 20510
Dear Senator DeMint:
I am writing to you today as a concerned citizen for the future of our Republic. I do believe that this coming Presidential Election will be one of the most important in our lifetimes. Currently there is only one true conservative and Constitutionalist running, Dr. Ron Paul of Texas.
I hope you stand with Liberty and endorse Dr. Paul in his bid for the Presidency. Many of us Paul supporters look to you and Senators Rand Paul of Kentucky and Mike Lee of Utah as inspirations. Having yourself and a few other Liberty minded individuals in the Senate gives us hope, real hope.
"Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth."
-George Washington
"Wars are poor chisels for carving out peaceful tomorrows."
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Peace is not absence of conflict,
it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means."
-Ronald Reagan
"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God."
-Matthew 5:9
Take Care, Be Well, and God Bless.
For Liberty,
