just got this email from the campaign

Dear friend,

Exciting news from Iowa! Many of you across the country have been asking how you
can help in Iowa, and we're ready to take you up on it in a big way. We are
officially launching our Call Iowa program today. We are asking for volunteers
from Iowa and across the country to call Iowans and spread the word about the
Straw Poll. We are excited about this opportunity to have Ron Paul supporters
converse on a one-to-one basis with Iowans likely to be interested in attending
the Straw Poll.

We are aware that some volunteers have begun calling people and trying to spread
the word. While we appreciate everyone's initiative and support, the Call Iowa
program is a great chance to volunteer with the official campaign and really be
a part of the action! Many of you have already expressed interest in a program
like this and we are grateful and excited for your help.

We invite you to contact us if you are interested in volunteering to call
Iowans. You are also welcome to contact us on behalf of your group, if you have
several local volunteers who are interested in working together on this. If you
are interested in volunteering to call Iowans here's what to do:

Send an e-mail to calliowa@ronpaul.com providing us with the following
information:

Your Name (ex. John Smith)

Your e-mail address (ex. ronpaul@voteforronpaul.com)

Your location (ex. Cedar Rapids, IA)

How many people you are responding for (ex. 12). Please enter "1" if you are
volunteering alone on this.

Approximately how many calls you think you and your group can reasonably handle
in about one week's time. (ex. 150)

Once we get your response we will send you an e-mail with a list of people to
call and a guide for calling. We will give you sample scripts if you feel you
need them, plus a guideline of appropriate conduct and tone, and information
that should be included in every call. We promise that this program is simple
and user friendly for even the least computer-inclined. We are anticipating a
large response to this, so you may not get a list from us immediately, but we
will work hard to get to everyone as fast as possible. Everyone who wants to
volunteer will absolutely have the chance to. There are approximately 1,500,000
registered voters in Iowa, so there are plenty of calls to be made!

Please note that this e-mail address is for our Call Iowa program ONLY. Because
of the large response anticipated to this program we will only be able to
respond to e-mails that provide only the above requested information or relevant
questions. We are very excited to be able to get everyone involved on a national
scale to help get out the vote in Iowa. We welcome everyone's help, even if you
can only make a handful of phone calls. We are looking forward to hearing from
everyone!
