Dear Friend,
As the Christmas season is upon us, I am reminded of the countless blessings our Savior has bestowed upon this great country. I am also reminded of the immeasurable good fortune I have to count you as a friend, supporter and fellow warrior in the battle to restore as public policy those values that have made our great country the envy of the world.
But I also cannot ignore the very real danger we face of losing everything that America has stood for. The major parties have created a political monopoly. Although they masquerade as two parties, they are really one, with two parts. Both are determined to promote the same agenda.
Without the Constitution Party as a viable alternative, Americans will almost certainly be left choosing between two pro-abort, nanny state, open borders, deficit-spenders. America cannot survive much longer with that kind of “leadership.”
While a few truly admirable men are seeking the Republican nomination for president, you and I know that the party establishment is doing all it can to silence anyone who is not among the “anointed.” If, as we expect, the Republican Party chooses one of the media approved “front runners” there will almost certainly be a revolt among those who have been the backbone of that party for so long.
In the past, the Republican leaders paid lip service to conservatives to get their support during the campaign, but then treated them with contempt after the election.
Now, the party is offering as its chosen candidates, men who have undeniable records of supporting abortion, open borders, the homosexual agenda and gun control.
Astoundingly, a few prominent religious and “conservative” leaders have endorsed these GOP candidates, once again seeking a “seat at the table” and abandoning their principles. It’s shameful, and the American people have had enough.
As you have probably heard, Dr. James Dobson and other pro-family leaders have announced their intention to vote third party should the Democrats and Republicans both nominate pro-abortion candidates.
There is no doubt that the Democrats will, as always, continue to promote the party platform of abortion on demand, and now it seems very likely that the Republicans will do the same.
As Dobson said in a recent New York Times editorial; “Winning the presidential election is vitally important, but not at the expense of what we hold most dear.” But with your help, winning is a very real possibility for the Constitution Party.
Given the likely outcome of the primaries, the principled voters of America are going to be faced with two evils, neither of which will be “lesser,” and they will be eager for an alternative.
CNN’s Lou Dobbs said “I believe that …Americans will demand a far better choice than (these) candidates …something on the order of an independent movement will come if these two parties fail the American people again.”
With the tide clearly turning in our direction, we must be prepared to offer America a candidate they can believe in, and it is crucial that the Constitution Party is on the ballot in every state.
Your help now can mean that Americans will not be forced into four more years of failed and destructive policies. Would you please click here to make a donation to the Constitution Party?
It’s no surprise that across the country, Republicans are losing seats and losing voters.
In fact, recent surveys show a consistent increase in the number of Americans who identify with neither major party. These “independent voters” are now roughly equal to the number of people who identify themselves as republicans. This clearly indicates voters are looking for another option.
In the past, even while promoting dangerous policies, the Republicans continued the pretense that they believed in conservative values. Now even the pretense is gone and men and women with principles are looking elsewhere for representation.
Clearly, the Constitution Party is the natural home for principled voters. Help me welcome them by making sure our candidates are on the 2008 ballot in every state.
That’s why I am asking you to consider the most generous contribution you are able to make in this effort to provide that alternative candidate. Please make a donation to the Constitution Party by clicking here.
The ballot access process is difficult and expensive. The response to our last appeal was tremendous and allowed us to move forward with our petition drive in Ohio and bring on board a National Ballot Access Coordinator to get the ball rolling in several more states.
We are making progress but our resources for ballot access have now been depleted. We have only a short window of opportunity to achieve ballot access in many states and we must press onward with everything we can muster if we are to be successful.
In many places the entrenched major parties work together to block ballot access to others. But we are determined to offer America an alternative, and you can help us make sure that happens.
Your contribution of $1,000, $250, $100 or $50, or whatever you can afford, will make the difference.
For far too many years, our country has slid further and further from our Constitutional roots. We have flipped the coin between Democrat control and Republican control in hopes of improvement, only to discover that no matter which side comes up, it’s tails we lose.
It’s time for a new coin – one with two sides. As a supporter of Constitutional principles, your contribution will give Americans hope, vision and a real choice.
I pray in this most blessed of seasons I can count on your generosity so that we can work to offer our country the greatest Christmas gift of all; a future bright with hope, free from war and safe for the unborn. I wish you a peaceful and joyous Christmas.
Yours for Liberty,
Jim Clymer
National Chairman
