Friends,
In mountain climbing,
we call it the “summit push”.
After months of preparation, the time has come to lay it all
out, go for broke, and achieve a goal.
That’s what you do when you climb a mountain, and that’s what you and I are going to do over the next four days.
After a day packed full of media interviews, today I’m
headed to the key state of Ohio
for events all across the state. Over the weekend and right up until the
polls close Tuesday, I will be participating in national media events and doing
everything I can to reach as many people as possible.
And while all this is going on, our TV ads are running as
many times as we can afford to run them.
You can help with that today by
going to GaryJohnson2012.com and making a crucial contribution for these final
days!
With polls all across the country showing the Republican
Romney and the Democrat Obama virtually tied, the work you and I have done over
the past many months has put us exactly where we want to be. Suddenly,
even TIME magazine is taking note that we have created a “third option” for
voters who see both Romney and Obama as slightly different versions of the
big-government status quo. You can
read the story here: Who is Gary Johnson and Why is the GOP So Mad at Him?
No matter how hard they’ve tried to shut us out of the
process, we have put Liberty ,
personal freedom and non-intervention on the ballot – and given notice that we
are here to stay.
Who are “we”? We are
more than 300,000 fans on Facebook, more than a million people connecting on
Google+, and 100,000 followers on Twitter.
And of course, “we” are thousands of amazing supporters who have
provided the funding to build this campaign from nothing to TIME magazine to
polling numbers that may well be the deciding factor in key states across the
country.
Until the Republicans
finally succeeded in shutting him out of the process, Congressman Ron Paul did
an incredible job of putting Liberty on the nation’s agenda. We – you and I – have carried that agenda
into the general election in a way that has never happened before. That is historic – and it is thanks to your
support.
I may not have time in the next few days to send you another
email. So, I need to know that I can
depend on you to make sure we have the funding to keep our TV ads running – and
hopefully increase them – between now and Tuesday.
Tomorrow, we will need to know how many ads we can buy for
the weekend, and Monday morning, we will need to make our final “buy”. Your
contribution today at GaryJohnson2012.com is essential to keeping our momentum
going.
Political movements that have changed the course of American history have always begun with a
group of courageous people who were not afraid to challenge the
Establishment and the status quo they
cherish.
I am grateful beyond words for your courage in standing with me as we
create the next critical movement in American politics.
Tuesday is the first big step in putting Liberty ,
real prosperity, and sane foreign policy on America ’s
agenda in a way that it cannot be pushed aside any longer. Your
contribution at GaryJohnson2012.com will make our “summit push” a success!
I’m off to Ohio
– let’s do this!
Thank you,
Governor Gary Johnson
P.S. My great running mate, Judge Jim Gray, and I will be in
Albuquerque on election night. We would love to see you there!
