    This is nothing more than a fundraising e-mail.

    I know people who fill the envelope with pennies to make it as heavy as possible, throw in some Ron Paul stickers, and then send it in so that they have to pay for the extra postage

    The party platform is red meat for the grassroots, to let people think they have influence - but as it binds nobody, nobody pays attention to it. True on state/local levels as well.

    I am tempted to write RAND PAUL 2016 across it and send it back but they have registration codes on the envelope and survey.

    We'll see...!

    I haven't received one yet but if I did I would def fill out and return. This is not the time to be complacent. Holy hell, we have Rand leading in the polls. We have the majority of Repubs on our side! We have to keep pushing even if it is just a fundraising letter. Not the time to say "its useless". Fill the damn thing out. Engage...ENGAGE.

    Yeah that's going to win a lot of good will within the party we're trying to take over.

    Some people need to grow up.

    I agree with PatriotOne, fill out the survey and send it back in.

    No, I can tell you first hand that in 2011 several of the measure that got passed in the NCGA got passed despite leadership objections because the Member was able to argue that said issue was in the platform. If you have allies in the Legislature or the Congress, then having a friendly platform can give them all kinds of leverage.

    I just filled it out, they asked some pretty stupid questions.

    I guess I probably did. I don't know. Anything like that I throw away without opening. It's just a fund raising gimmick.

    What do your itching ears want to hear from the party and the msm?

    Help us tailor a message to suit your fears and your pride.


    EDIT: Last one I received was 2007 or so. None since.

    I have some extra Ron Paul stickers they can have. I post them outside the envelope too.

    See, I don't agree that they pay no attention to it. i think they pay attention to it so they know which way the wind is blowing in order to feed talking points to the establishment candidates.

    It wouldn't surprise me if they just tear off the end of the envelope, shake it to see if a check falls out, and then throw it way.

    And I am telling you that I have personally seen the inside of those super-secret legislative caucus meetings where platform planks were used as leverage to force leadership to accept the movement of bills that they personally opposed and would have otherwise shut down. Platforms are more important than most folks realize. So long as you have a couple friendly legislators in office, you can use platform planks to push and pass bills that would otherwise go nowhere.

    I agree with those that say it would be good to fill it out. If they're paying for its return, why not?

    That various by state. In at least 1 state (my guess would be more than 1), there is a group that influences how elected official vote that uses the party platform in the process. The website is perhaps laughable, though. http://www.nhhra.org/

    Who We Are and Our Goal

    The New Hampshire House Republican Alliance (HRA) is a group of Republican members of the House of Representatives with a very simple and straight-forward goal.
    We want all bills passing the New Hampshire Legislature to be consistent with the New Hampshire and US Constitutions, to embody the traditional Republican values specified in the NH State Party Platform, and to be fiscally responsible to the people of our great state.
    Some of the folks that voted for the more informed juries/ jury nullification bill in NH were influenced by that being part of the NHGOP Platform.
