The Power!!!

For those of you following it, the current special election in New York is basically tied with only 65 votes separating the candidates.

Think of the power this gives to the FairTax!!!!

If we had gotten 65 people to vote for the Fairtax candidate, or convinced 33 people to change their votes because of a candidates stance on the FairTax, we would have changed the outcome of the election!!!

We need to help politicians to understand that their stance on the FairTax can make, or break, their next election. As more people understand the FairTax, and what it offers, lame excuses for not being a supporter and co-sponsor are going to become a liability.

Our job is to educate the public on what the FairTax means, and then educate them on what and how their candidates view this critical measure!!!

Take a look at the pictures of our first FairTax billboard!!!

Now might be a good time for all Ohio FairTaxers to send an email or fax to any of our elected Federal or State officials, include a copy of the billboard, and let them know we will be voting in the 2010 election, and we have long memories.

Hi Friends,

We are looking for leaders in every county and all precincts. Now is the time to walk our precincts. It is the very essence of reaching out to all your Friends And Neighbors (hence our name), and no political technique or fundraising mechanism has been invented that is as influential as people walking precincts. Please send me a message to get started. Let us know what precinct you're in ... it is the best place to start.

We plan to host the first of several "training" sessions before Tax Day, and "make-up" training sessions after Tax Day. If you're experienced and just want to get going, so state and we'll get you your Walking List and instructions on capturing the contact information of new volunteers. If you want a preview of the training material, check out http://mcfan.org/precinctwalking.aspx.

In God We Trust,

This could be a good opportunity for some of our NorthWest Ohio members to connect and start pushing the FairTax message.

Bob, since you are going to be visiting U of Toledo, maybe you could let Tricia know we'll "advertise" her event, and see if she would consider giving FairTax a prominent place in the activities. Also, recruit some new FairTaxers to hand out literature at the event and/or be available for discussions. Every Tea Party I've heard of has been very interested in the FairTax. I expect this one will be much the same!!

Tonight Medina County Friends And Neighbors hosted a second Organizing for Action meeting. Our first Organizing for Action meeting was at the request of the host of the dramatically successful Glenn Beck "We Surround Them" meeting, to help the people who attended that event find ways of becoming actively involved and make a difference in defending America from the enemy within. Tonight's meeting was because the attendees of our first Organizing for Action meeting thought we should do it again, for the benefit of those who were unable to attend. And tonight, those who attended wanted us to conduct another Organizing for Action meeting. And we will.

But we will have to change the meeting place again. Our first meeting at Panera Bread was filled to capacity by the 15 people who attended. So we booked the second meeting for a larger room at Donato's. And tonight we filled that room to capacity with over 30 people who attended, including two high school students! In attendance were people from not only Medina County Friends and Neighbors, but also We Surround Them, Recharge Medina, Ohio Christian Alliance, Cleveland Tea Party, Dave's Disciples, Team Sarah, Coast to Coast, Patriotic Resistance, Screaming Eagles, South Cuyahoga Sportsmen and the organizers of the first Cleveland Tea Party (sorry if I left anybody out!).

In the past week one of our volunteers has developed the tools to provide precinct walking lists for every county in Ohio, and we will provide them to conservatives willing to work upon demand, as fast as we can. Tonight, four people volunteered to walk precincts in Medina County. We will be getting them their walking lists immediately, and training sessions and mentors will be provided so that people who have never done this before get a good start. Another attendee volunteered to help us monitor legislation, such as HB 1388 which as currently written requires involuntary servitude of our young in either the military (restore the draft?) or in Obama's civilian army. This is a critical post that will help alert us when immediate action is needed to influence our legislators.

The upcoming Tea Party's in Columbus and Cleveland were discussed, and a team is forming to organize a Tea Party at Medina Square, for those who cannot attend the Columbus or Cleveland demonstrations. If you want to be part of the organizing of that, join the breakout session at the Golden Corral on Saturday at about 10 A.M., after our regular Saturday morning breakfast.

There is work to be done, and every one of us can and must make a difference. As they say in the Navy, "All hands on deck!".
