Hey Everyone, Listen Up! There are about 100 days till the November election

It is time to get involved!

You can be part of the solution. Simple things work and make a difference.

So what am I talking about?

You can hand out literature to your friends and neighbors. If you can make calls, you can call on behalf of your favorite candidates as well as propositions. Yard signs, donations, e-mail and texts. These are all effective means of getting good people elected. You can also make sure that people vote.

Many good people running for office will be out spent, sometimes by ratios of 10 to 1. A groundswell of support has repeatedly knocked out candidates who outspent them by 10 to 1 or more. How do I know? Because I have run a few of those campaigns.

We are in a deep mess right not and if the Republicans come out ahead in November’s election, nothing changes for the better. Things will get worse.

The way out of this mess is to knuckle down, do what you can and we’ll come out the other side in November.

What is nice is that you don’t have to do anything hard. You won’t have to bench press 300 pounds, run a mile in under 4 minutes, or lose 20 pounds. What we all have to do is talk with others and help them understand who to vote for.

Please start now and make sure your friends, neighbors and family understand why the Republican party must go. A democratic congress can start investigations. This November we can slam the brakes on corruption, high prices, lies, murder by govt officials and so much more. And you can help. Its easy and fun.

If you just sit there, you are part of the problem. Apathy will make things worse. Get involved!
Trust me, at the end you’ll look back with pride on what you have done.
