~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Gravel For President 2008 Press Release ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Important Campaign Update from New Hampshire State Director A Personal Note from Elliott Jacobson, We are now entering a crucial phase in our campaign. Some of the other candidates, the television networks and the Democratic Party have conspired to keep the Senator from frankly and plainly laying out the dangers we all face as a nation. Despite this, thousands of new supporters have still surfaced in response to Mike's challenge of truth to those who hold the levers of power as well as those who, in aspiring to wield it, will say or do anything to get to the White House. Let me tell you what we are doing in New Hampshire: * We are mobilizing all of the college campuses to come out and show their support for Mike during the primary. * We have saturated the state with yard signs and other promotional materials. This is being done in conjunction with newspaper advertisements that are being placed in New Hampshire's leading newspapers and a direct mail campaign targeting voters. * We are putting together a news program about Mike that will be webcast over Mike's New Hampshire web site. This will feature segments such as "Mike Gravel Uncensored," along with upcoming events and campaign commercials. This will first be made available to New Hampshire voters and then will be streamed nationally. If you would like to lend a hand in this effort, please contact me directly. If you would like to come out and show your support for Mike, he will be visiting New Hampshire between Dec. 18 and Dec. 20 and again from Dec. 26 to Jan. 8, so keep watching the national web site for his schedule. The campaign is increasingly reliant upon the generous donations of supporters like you.Corporations, lobbies, elites and special interests don't want you to be aware that your small contribution individually can become a mighty flow of cash collectively. Join Mike Gravel's "Truth to Power" campaign and see how it alters the outcome of the 2008 political landscape and prevents those who believe they can outspend the truth and buy their way into power. Donate and Show Your Support Today!

Your support and donations to Mike's campaign will allow his voice to be heard. It will ensure that before any votes are cast the American people will know the truth about all of the candidates' positions that lie deep behind the fog of TV ads, scripted remarks, focus groups and purchased polls. Thanks for your support, Elliott Jacobson New Hampshire State Director (603) 624 0052 elliott@gravel08.us [mailto:elliott@gravel08.us] P.S. U.S. voters already know how Mike took a huge personal risk by exposing the Pentagon's secret war in Vietnam and forcing an end to the draft. But let's not forget that Mike also stopped nuclear testing off the coast of Alaska, preventing an environmental catastrophe that may very well have destroyed our food supply in the North Pacific. He was also responsible for the construction of the Trans Alaska Oil Pipeline, which provides us with 20% of our energy and has reduced our dependence on foreign oil. This is what Mike stands for now: * An immediate and orderly withdrawal of all American troops from Iraq; * A universal healthcare plan that will provide every American citizen with quality healthcare coverage; * An end to the war against vets by making sure that all of their needs (both physical and psychological) are fully funded; and * Equal rights (including marriage) for all Americans regardless of race, sexual orientation or gender identification. Spread the word by sending this out to 10 friends, family members, acquaintances or business associates - anyone who you think may be interested in Mike's message.
