Dear Friend and Fellow Patriot,
We never hear about our Founding Fathers and their fight for freedom and liberty from the Democratic Party or President Barack Obama. So, let me share with you what American Patriot Samuel Adams had to say in 1780:
“If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.”
Samuel Adams was speaking to not only those who had birthed this great nation when he wrote the above shortly after the founding of our country. He was also speaking to you and me. And, he was speaking about the very conditions that exist in America today.
We are at a tipping point here in America and voters will soon choose which direction we will go. Do we abandon the hope of the American Revolution and admit this grand experiment in self-government has failed, or do we reaffirm our commitment to liberty, economic freedom and most importantly, the belief in the individual over the government?
That is the central question of this election. I know what side I am on. And, I believe I know what side you are on. We must stand with Governor Romney and Congressman Ryan as we push back an overreaching government and the Obama Administration’s reckless policies. We have to fight for the American Dream for our children and their children.
We are blessed to live in a state like Alabama where the majority of its people share our values and will cast their votes for the Romney/Ryan ticket. However, we know the fate of the nation does not rest on how Alabama will vote. It rests in the hands of voters living in Battleground States.
I meet people every day that say they are voting for the Romney/Ryan ticket but are concerned that other states might not understand what is at stake in this election. They want to do more than cast their vote here in Alabama for the Romney/Ryan ticket. They want to go to work to make sure that Barack Obama does not have another four years as President.
That is why the Alabama Republican Party has established the Alabama Battleground Patriots.
The Alabama Battleground Patriots are volunteers from across Alabama who are rising up and saying they want to do more than vote for Romney/Ryan. They want some skin in the game. They are afraid that we will lose our country as we know it today if Obama is re-elected. They are ready to be deployed to a battleground state to save our country.
In 2008, President Obama won three southern states: Florida, Virginia and North Carolina. I think it would be very difficult for Gov. Romney to be elected President if he lost these states. Therefore, we have selected these three states to deploy the Alabama Battleground Patriots to have boots on the ground for the Romney/Ryan ticket.
Patriots will work with the Romney/Ryan Campaign and the RNC to knock on doors and contact thousands of influential undecided voters who will decide the future for our children. Patriots will be trained and pared up with local volunteers and Romney/Ryan campaign staff.
But, what if we do nothing but stay here in Alabama, vote for Romney/Ryan and assume that everything will be just fine? Well, remember the Presidential election in 2000? President Bush won Florida, and thus the Presidency, by only 537 votes. That’s right. In 2000, only 537 votes in Florida made the difference in whether we would have President Bush and President Gore.
I believe that those who volunteer to be a part of the Alabama Battleground Patriots will be part of history being made as we defeat Barack Obama and send him back to Chicago. This is your chance to get involved. This is your chance to make a difference. If you want to be a part of this exciting history-making event just click here and sign up today. Buses depart for each Virginia, North Carolina or Florida on October 21 and return to Alabama on October 27. For more details on the trips click here.
We must not lose this election! For, if we do, Samuel Adams, and all the original American Patriots, of 1776 would not recognize America as the country they risked their lives and fortunes to establish. What are you willing to give to preserve America as the greatest nation on earth for our children and grandchildren? Please donate here to help us deploy Alabama’s Battleground Patriots so that we are able to claim victory on November 6th.
For the Cause,
Bill Armistead, Chairman
Alabama Republican Party
P.S. While many Alabamians are passionate about making a difference in the Presidential race, we are focused like a laser beam on winning elections here in Alabama from the Court House to the White House. We have more Republicans running in Alabama than ever. If you would like to volunteer to work in any of our local campaigns please call us at 205-212-5900. We’re going to color Alabama red on November 6th.
