From the Fair Tax web site:
The FairTax:
Today, June 14, 2008, I received a phone call from a federal employee who works on "Air Force One". I was told that some of those who work on "Air Force One" are losing their jobs because of their outspoken opinions of distress concerning the State Of The Union is not what it ought to be, specifically concerning McCain. This person was also concerned enough to be worried about the same fate of having personal job loss.
I happen to be on the Executive Committee of the Independent American Party. This person contacted me from information on that web site. The great concern was the need to find a Presidential candidate worth voting for that had a chance of being elected.
The way it stands now, there are many Republicans, such as those employees of "Air Force One", who do not like the idea of voting for McCain. Of course, many Republicans will probably vote for him seeing as he now has no one to stand in the way of his party's nomination, especially so since Ron Paul announced his campaign stop. The rest of the people's vote will largely be split between Constitution Party, Libertarian Party and Democrats.
I agreed with the caller that the outcome does not look good. The calling party suggested a civil war in the works due to the depressing prospects for our future because, of no well known popular Presidential candidate to vote for. I expressed my hope for Committee of Correspondence influence on our Congress for our future as explained on my campaign web site.
God bless America and good campaigning wishes to each of us.

The military is broken.
We are abusing the small population of armed service members with multiple deployments while using inadequate vehicles and equipment. Less than one half of a percent of the American population is serving in the active armed forces, which is the least amount in the last century. Only 25% of the troops in Iraq are there for their first tour, while 50% are there on their second tour, and the remaining 25% are there three times or more. We continue to involuntarily extend soldiers with Stop-Loss, recall them repeatedly for additional service using the Individual Ready Reserve, and send soldiers with diagnosed medical problems into combat.

U.S. deploys more than 43,000 unfit for combat
"It is a consequence of the consistent churning of our troops," said Bobby Muller, president of Veterans For America. "They are repeatedly exposed to high-intensity combat with insufficient time at home to rest and heal before redeploying."

U.S. is recruiting misfits for army
Felons, racists, gang members fill in the ranks
"We're looking for high school graduates with no more than one felony on their record," one recruiter said.
The Army has even looked behind prison bars for fill-in recruits -- in one reported case, they went to a "youth prison" in Ogden, Utah. Although Steven Price had asked to see a recruiter while still incarcerated, he was "barely 17 when he enlisted last January" and his divorced parents say "recruiters used false promises and forged documents to enlist him."
While confusion exists about whether the boy's mother actually signed a parental consent form allowing her son to enlist, his "father apparently wasn't even at the signing, but his name is on the form too."

]]>If we learn anything it is this, only when enough of us become candidates to campaign, not for the office we seek, but for the message, will America survive.
Here is a suggested campaign letter in honor of the Ron Paul message.
Dear Fellow American,
Independent and 3rd party candidates are receiving much support from people who recognize that our nation's political standards have become corrupted. The corruption involves President Eisenhower's warning given in his Farewell Address to the Nation.
In the following words from that January 17, 1961 speech, President Eisenhower warned of an un-American agenda promoted by special interest individuals and groups. He said:
“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.”
“We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.”
“The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present - and is gravely to be regarded.”
“Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.”
What President Eisenhower spoke of involves political corruption against the principles America was founded on, against the spirit of the Declaration of Independence and the law of the U. S. Constitution. The corruption can be described in terms of a global “New World Order” as opposed to our American independence and the unalienable rights of all men.
We invite all Americans to recognize this problem. Join in the campaign to promote public awareness. Stand with those who stand up for Declaration of Independence values and for citizen participation in patriotic activities such as the Committee of Correspondence at the http://www.usiap.org/CofC/CofC.htm Internet web site. Political corruption would come to an end with the proper expression of the will of the people through organized public action such as in Committee of Correspondence activity.
The DVD, “Stand Up America” contains a message for the solution to America's troubles that our nation should follow for the preservation of our independence and our liberty. The DVD is good for candidate campaigns and for voter education. For little more than the cost of mailing, it is available at http://www.americanpatriotproject.com/e-Store.html . Please copy and distribute.
All who campaign for America are free to modify this letter to personalize and use.
Stand up America. Stand up and promote the cause of American patriotism. Stand up in patriotic pride for our independence and laws of liberty. Stand up in Committees of Correspondence to campaign and petition for good laws of government. Stand up in support of those candidates who do stand up to honor and support the Constitution's laws as supreme.
To promote an American future based upon our great American Founding Documents that any freedom loving American would expect, support the election of those candidates who stand for preserving our American independence and liberty. Support the election of those candidates who give their endorsement to the great cause of this American solution message which is to seek for the preservation of America as one nation under God united by the voice of a people who honor liberty as confirmed by the laws of the United States Constitution.
As America's Founding Fathers felt need to express faith in God, should we do less?
“We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights.” In this expression of the American faith, we can see God's handiwork in America's establishment.
We also see God's handiwork as far as man can see in the stars above. Their number and distance strain man's ability to comprehend. Scripture tells us that God put them there on day four of the creation of our world.
Through instruments of science, man looks in upon himself and his environment in God's creation and finds a marvelous tapestry of interchangeable mass and energy. Through the law of E=MC², man has harnessed this relationship to create blinding heat.
The word of God tells us that we should not put our trust in man or in the arm of flesh. In like manor, neither should we put our faith in the laws of science that learned men of this world rely on, except as those laws are agreeable with the will of God.
Jesus Christ taught that the will and word of God is the law upon which all creation exists. By His law, He walked on water. By His law, He fed over five thousand people from five loaves and two fishes. Fragments that remained from this feast filled twelve baskets. By His law, comes our resurrection and judgment. Jesus said, believe, repent, forgive, love your enemies, pray for them, follow me.
The word of God is the law and as His word is spoken, so goes the law. The laws of science throughout our universe exist only by the will of God. The fact that man is free to explore and apply these laws for right or wrong is a miracle.
Stand Up America

President Eisenhower saw the threat to our liberties from the military-industrial complex. We have too many such complexes such as the pharmaceutical-industrial complex, all having connections through their respective corporate ties to the same sources of controlling influence, each achieving its degree of corruption through the power of greed or need for whatever money can buy. We invite all Americans to recognize this problem and join in the campaign to promote greater public unity against such complexes.
Join with other concerned Americans in the Committee of Correspondence at http://usiap.org/CofC/CofC.htm . Join to help raise the voice of a united people that will be able to properly influence the actions of our U. S. Congress. Join to oppose those who ignore the laws of our Constitution because they choose to accept the money and rights of corporations over the rights of the people, or they choose to have little or no trust in God to manage the affairs and populations of a world that lacks the wisdom to manage its affairs by the Ten Commandments.
Stand up America. Stand up and promote the cause of American patriotism. Stand up in patriotic pride for our independence and laws of liberty. Stand up in Committees of Correspondence to campaign and petition for right and for following our Constitution's laws.
To promote an American future based upon our great American Founding Documents that any freedom loving American would expect, support the election of candidates who stand for preserving American independence and liberty. Support
the election of candidates such as Ron Paul and many others who are standing for continuing our American heritage of a people who have promoted America as one nation under God, united by the voice of a people who honor liberty as confirmed by the laws of the Constitution.

An Independent American
and Kansas Reform Party Candidate
For United States Congress, Kansas 3rd District
To every American who would support the survival of our American way of life under the Constitution's laws, we need to pick up and amplify Ron Paul's message and use it as a standard for judging or endorsing all other candidates. For a letter anyone can use for this purpose, see http://www.ronpaulreferendum.net/node/7
A DVD has been put together called "Stand Up America" that is good to use along with the letter. The DVD can be copied without limit and distributed by candidates and for candidates as a means to say, "This candidate gives full endorsement to the Ron Paul message that is expressed in this DVD".
The DVD and letter are free upon request. Send your request to: American Patriot Project, P. O. Box 361, Ottawa, KS 66067. Those who can send money for postage, it will be appreciated. They may also be ordered through http://www.AmericanPatriotProject.com
]]>In face of the looming threat of an expanded U.S. military action, a line in the sand has been drawn by a retired USAF Lt. Col. National Commander. It is "Duty, Honor, Country 2007", "An Open Letter to the New Generation of Military Officers Serving and Protecting Our Nation"
See it here: http://www.thepatriots.us/download/Duty.pdf
As I try to express on my AmericanPatriotProject.com web site, we need to pull out all the stops in support of the campaign of Ron Paul for President in 2008. Ron Paul will build and maintain the strength of our military power. He will do it for the defense of our American independence and liberty. He will stop the use of our troops to police the world. He will bring our troops home to protect our own land and engage in the virtue of our National Motto before resorting to preemptive attacks.
]]>Bush ignores the American people and continues giving aliens greater rights over American citizens such as help coming across our open borders to get free health care, first class jails, education, USA road rights for the Mexican trucking industry, all at the same time the USA citizens become more encircled with cameras and surveillance networks to keep us safe from the breakdown of law and order they created.
Bush and company also want to see us taxed to pay for greater UN authority over us plus restrict our sovereignty over our coastal sea rights as described in the following web address.
http://www.capwiz.com/jbs/issues/alert/?alertid=9848421
Wake up America and consider our rights for self-government that we have struggled and sacrificed for. Stop drinking the stuff in your water, clear the fog out of you head and tell your Senators and Congressmen what we expect them to stand for and against. The line ought to be in the sand.
]]>I publish the American Patriot Project web site to contend for right. See http://www.americanpatriotproject.com/Project.html.
Will the American people lay down until every thread of our
Constitutional Law is broken? Will we wake up to the emergency to the enforcement of martial law for which our federal government has been preparing in difference to the laws of our liberty? A martial law that, through recent Executive Order and Congressional legislation, our government has been preparing that constitutes a network for total control, the contemplation of which is void of any respect for the right of the American people to live by the laws of our Constitution in accordance with our National Motto for the preservation of our liberty?
Will the American people let this happen? It will happen unless we are able to act to do what is necessary to prevent it. The laws of our United States Constitution were written under the knowledge that the governments of men cannot be trusted. If we now trust government to exercise what it has recently provided by Executive Order and condoned by Congressional legislation and inaction, the frog in the pot of heating water will be cooked.
Visit the web site above for some very positive information. Inform more people to help wake up and re-energize an increasing number of Americans for the cause of our liberty, peace and prosperity. These blessings are characteristic of American society more than any other society on earth. The blessings will be ours and they will endure only to the degree that we the people have the wisdom to be vigilant for our law and our National Motto.
May the American people be vigilant in our mutual cause. May we be vigilant to act and to succeed as are the intentions of the Committee of Correspondence that is referred to on the web site link above.
Sincerely,
Roger Tucker

Individually, by application of our National Motto, I believe we can overcome the weapons described on this audio designed for mass control. For the sake of our society, our families and everyone's future, we need to expose the threat of such weapons and the means by which we are now under attack. The information touched on in this audio also describes the possibilities of a bright future.
Also, I will post event information here on this votekansas.org site inviting everyone to listen in on this coming Saturday's (May 19, 2007) teleconference of the Independent American Party and associated Committee of Correspondence.
]]>Politicians especially need reminding that we will be ever vigilant in support of our national independence and our liberty.

]]>I am creating a web site at http://www.AmericanPatriotProject.com with this aim in mind. To accomplish what is needed, I believe that we need to give first priority in calling for and promoting the honor and celebration of our Constitution as published on the American Patriot Project web site.
Whether this effort achieves any measure of success is to be determined in going forward from here. This much I do know, any questions of possible success will remain unanswered without the effort to make it work.
I promote patriot action in the organization of the Committee of Correspondence. This organization, in appealing to a larger number of people, attempts to be basically unaffiliated with a particular political party even though the Independent American Party may benefit as the host.

]]>The American ideal of equal rights being the unalienable right of all mankind only became more fully practiced everywhere in America after many trials of hardship and sacrifice and even the pains of a civil war. With each victory for the rights of man, America has become a better nation in living up to those ideals of liberty that are expressed in the Declaration of Independence and in our Constitution.
We now face another challenge to those great American ideals of liberty. Pandering to the greed for profit of big business interests, our federal government has unfortunately created free trade agreements such as NAFTA and CAFTA that open the door for business interests to seek profits through cheaper production costs based on the foreign oppression of labor rights and lax environment concerns.
Passed against the will of the majority of the American people and against the will of the majority of foreign populations, these free trade agreements not only make it possible for business ventures to use the labor of oppressed workers who lack the rights that Americans have under the laws of our Constitution, they also disregard our laws relating to our national sovereignty, all for international business.
Just days before the July 28, 2005 House vote that passed CAFTA, U. S. Congressman “Butch” Otter of Idaho said, “I want all 435 members of this House, I want them to be prepared when they go home and explain to their folks at home exactly what they’ve done, for whatever of the 435 members voted for CAFTA, in selling down the drain the sovereignty of this country.”
I became a candidate to ask our Congressmen that question. Why did they vote away the sovereignty of this country?
America became a sovereign and independent nation only after great sacrifice. Now, we are giving up what we won to allow special interest business to increase profits through workers rights suppression. When our trade policy enable business to profit on the backs of oppressed foreign workers, it is unfair economic advantage against our free society where labor rights are protected by the law of our Constitution. This race to the bottom for the lowest cost production is causing the loss of our nation’s factory jobs.
Have you ever questioned why illegal immigration has soared after the federal government passed the NAFTA free trade agreement? Many are as refugees from conditions South of the border that have been made worse because of our trade agreements that enable business to exploit conditions of oppression in foreign nations all the way to China for greater profits.
Better trade agreements, as explained in the National Grassroots Demonstration(NGD) letter, in concern for people in oppressed societies will promote better living conditions for many people along with greater human rights, rights with which we are all endowed by right from our Creator, and rights that we, the citizens of America, are only able to hold on to for ourselves by virtue of the honor and vigilance that we are willing to give for our constitutional rights against the constant greed for greater power and social control.
When our government fails to have concern for the rights of foreign workers, we are failing to honor our cause of liberty as expressed in our Declaration of Independence. There is no other more important issue, that defines who and what America is, than when the American people stand for what is right, for what is expressed in the Declaration of Independence concerning the rights of all mankind.
I, for one, am concerned for other people’s rights, not just my own. Our foreign trade policy needs to be fixed to reflect that we the people, all of us, do honor the value of our rights for ourselves and for all people. Especially so because, until we do stand united for what is right, our factory jobs will continue to be lost to the competition of those who employ workers denied the right to achieve a higher standard of living. This is no better than slavery. In some respects, worse.

NATIONAL GRASSROOTS DEMONSTRATION (NGD)
WHY: GREATLY REDUCE AND STABILIZE GASOLINE PRICES (e.g. regular 87 octane close to $1.20/gal.), UTILITY BILLS, TRANSPORTATION COSTS, ETC.; SOLVE TRADE/BUDGET DEFICITS AND CREDIT CARD DEBT PROBLEMS; HELP SOLVE THE PROBLEMS OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, TERRORISM, JOBS EXPORTED/OUT-SOURCED, AND OTHER NATIONAL AND WORLD PROBLEMS.
WHEN: Now, at regular intervals and again at prearranged coordinated times, until necessary results are achieved.
WHERE: Every office in home states of all 100 Senators and 435 Representatives.
WHO/HOW: Representatives of groups/organizations: (with a hundred or more voters) should visit these Senators’ / Representatives’ offices in person. Individuals: Preferably, fax this NGD page to these offices, or phone the essence of NGD to them. Emphasize the following URGENT ISSUES to all offices and demand a written response.
1. UNCAP AND DRILL US. OIL WELLS - Congress should pass a Windfall Profits Tax bill, similar to S-1631 proposed in 2005; also a bill, added to HR-6 Energy Legislation of 2005, that provides a “price-support” (tax credits, etc.) of $23-25.00/barrel of oil and $3.00/1000 Cu. ft. of natural gas: and that adds incentives to increase USA oil refinery capacity. This would prevent OPEC monopoly (Cartel) from dropping its prices below these price supports to stop or greatly reduce U.S. domestic oil/natural gas production, as it did at $10/barrel in 1998. The President should sign this bill, and it should require him to have his Departments of Interior & Agriculture & the Bureau of Land Management to promptly start properly and increasingly issuing leases for oil/natural gas production on Federal Lands in several western and other USA states - especially on Gull Island and other parts of Alaska’s North Slope Petroleum Reserve separately west of Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). These actions should greatly start increasing our domestic oil/gas production in 2 mos. or so after the President signs this bill - ESPECIALLY from ALASKA’S LONG-CAPPED Gull Island Well - and in a year or so reduce our oil imports from 60 % to 20 % or so (most from Mexico) of our oil consumption, with NO IMPORTS from IRAQ/MIDEAST/OPEC monopoly. EXPORTS OF ALASKAN/OTHER USA OIL or NATURAL GAS production should be prohibited.
2. SUPPORT P.L. 480 Title I LOCAL CURRENCY SALES. including a mutually beneficial trade deal with Mexico involving P.L. 480 exports of U. S. agricultural products to Mexico and increased oil imports from Mexico (under Absolute Advantage Trade Policy instead of the current “Comparative Advantage” Free Trade Policy), for most of the 20 % of our imports. Tell your Congresspersons to add $5 - 10 billion in FY 2006 for this P.L. Title I 480 program with Mexico on concessional loan of pesos to Mexican Government for infrastructure/other economic development. Also, tell U.S. congresspersons to improve U.S. family farmers’ price support program, especially by adding PARITY SUPPORT PRICES. A major result of this trade deal and revised trade policy with Mexico would economically force it to greatly improve economic/political conditions in Mexico and stop our open border/illegal immigration problems. This would also include the willful return of the many million illegal immigrants now in the U.S.A. to proper, good-paying infrastructure/other economic development work in Mexico. This would also keep Mexican truckers transporting goods only within Mexico.
3. Tell Congress to VOTE AGAINST FTAA-TYPE TRADE AGREEMENTS WITH ANY COUNTRY, and LEGISLATE an ABSOLUTE ADVANTAGE TRADE POLICY (i.e., an importing country imports only products - in most practicable finished form - it cannot reasonably produce itself). THIS WOULD SOLVE THE DISASTROUS USA TRADE DEFICIT and FOREIGN DEBT. ALSO, IT WOULD RETURN MOST OR ALL JOBS EXPORTED/OUT-SOURCED OVER THE PAST 35-45 YEARS, AND HELP SOLVE OTHER PROBLEMS UNDER “WHY” ABOVE.
4. In 2007, this Absolute Advantage Trade Policy and PL 480 Title 1 program should be applied to many 3rd world “less developed” Latin America, Asian and African countries.
5. Tell your Federal and State Senators and Representatives, and your Governor, to legislate and enforce a paper ballot voting system for honest, accurate voting systems - in place of the machine/computer systems.
ALL ELIGIBLE VOTERS: Get active NOW per WHO/HOW (above)! These accomplishments will buy the time (5-10 or more years) to then develop wide-spread alternative energy sources, (wind, solar, etc.) and better energy conservation over the coming decade; also time to solve the other problems under “WHY” above. Also, these accomplishments will prevent a future economic (e.g. excessive gasoline, heating and other energy prices) disaster and the related terrible human sufferings, such as when the Katrina hurricane hit Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.
Through the action of grassroot patriots, voters and Congressmen can be educated to realize that the present “Comparative Advantage” Free Trade Policy is not fair trade for America’s manufacturing industry and good paying jobs, or for the exploited downtrodden people who are employed without the benefit of protection under the United States Constitution.
