!!!Your action is needed!!!

It comes directly from Ron Paul's Campaign:
<< Ron Paul Excluded in Iowa >>

Iowans for Tax Relief and Iowa Christian Alliance will host a
presidential candidates forum on Saturday, June 30th in Des
Moines. Republican presidential candidates Mitt Romney, Sam
Brownback, Jim Gilmore, Mike Huckabee, Tommy Thompson, and Tom
Tancredo will participate.

Ron Paul, however, will not participate. Why? Because he wasn't
invited.

We heard about this forum from numerous supporters in Iowa who
asked why Dr. Paul was not going to participate. Those supporters
assumed that Dr. Paul was invited.

The campaign office had not received an invitation so we called
this morning; thinking we might have misplaced the invitation or
simply overlooked it. Lew Moore, our campaign manager, called
Mr. Edward Failor, an officer of Iowans for Tax Relief, to ask
about it. To our shock, Mr. Failor told us Dr. Paul was not
invited; he was not going to be invited; and he would not be
allowed to participate. And when asked why, Mr. Failor refused
to explain. The call ended.

Lew then called Mr. Steve Sheffler, president of the Iowa
Christian Alliance, to talk with him. Mr. Sheffler did not
answer so Lew left a message. He has yet to respond.

Why are the Iowans for Tax Relief and the Iowa Christian Alliance
excluding the one Republican candidate who scored at the top of
every online poll taken after the MSNBC, Fox News, and CNN
debates? Why are they denying Iowans the opportunity to hear
from the Republican presidential candidate whose popularity is
growing by the day?

We couldn't get answers to these questions from Messrs. Failor
and Sheffler. Maybe you'll have better luck. Their contact
information is below.

It's ironic that on the same day we learned the Iowans for Tax
Relief and the Iowa Christian Alliance excluded Dr. Paul from
their candidates forum, we received a call from ABC News
confirming Dr. Paul's participation in its nationally broadcast
August 5th debate to be held in Des Moines.

As unbelievable as it may seem,
the U.S. appears to be on the
path to attacking yet another
Middle Eastern country: Iran.

This is the assessment of Scott
Ritter, former U.S. Marine Corps
officer and UN weapons inspector.

Ritter was the patriot who loudly
and publicly contradicted the Bush
administration's claim that Saddam
Hussein had weapons of mass destruction
that were a threat to the U.S.

In a first of a series, hear Ritter
analyze a number of important topics.

First item of business: Who runs U.S.
foreign policy?

The answer here:

emails with your friends and colleagues.
That's how we grow. Thanks.

Today in Iraq another 14 of our soldiers were killed.

America is the hope of the world.

It's also one of the world's greatest
disappointments.

What has happened to America? Where is
it headed? Can anything turn it around?

Because of America's power and the way
it uses its power, these are important
questions for every person on earth.

Are there American values besides the greed
and arrogance projected but its so called
leaders?

If so, who speaks for American values
today?

Here is a short video that answers that
question:

Hillary Clinton put a video together you have to see it.
http://www.care2.com/...

After two issues of the Care2 Presidential Caucus newsletter, we realized that the end of the week is the best time for a summary, rather than the beginning of the next (we know you're thinking, "duh"). So from now on, you will receive your newsletter on Fridays. We hope this helps you start your weekend well.



June 29, 2007
The Week That Was

This week, Mayor Bloomberg dropped out of the GOP and Nader considered running for president once again. Here are a few of the highlights from the Care2 News Network:

Bloomberg move fuels White House talk
Nader ponders run, calls Clinton 'coward'
Giuliani says he erred in joining Iraq Study Group
Report: White House Nearing Decision to Close Guantanamo


Featured Poll: Should Ralph Run?

Ralph Nader represents an ideal presidential candidate to some, a bad candidate to others, and an election-stealer to the rest. Many people blame Nader for taking away key votes from the Democratic party in the 2004 elections, thus allowing Bush to win. But Nader is currently debating a run, saying, "I really think there needs to be more competition from outside the two parties." So, whether you like him or not, should Ralph run? Take the poll! >> http://go.care2.com/e... .



Issue Focus:Stem Cell Research

This week, President Bush vetoed a bill that would decrease current restraints on federally funded embryonic stem cell research.

Showing the true divisiveness over this issue in both parties, the veto got mixed reactions. But one thing is for sure - stem cell research will surely be an issue facing the 2008 presidential candidates.

Most of the Republican candidates praised the President for his veto, except for John McCain and Rudy Giuliani. To the contrary, the Democrats criticized the veto.

Take Action!

Here are some Care2 petitions that will keep you active and help send messages to the 2008 presidential candidates!

America Needs More Women Political Candidates!
We Need a New Attorney General!


Multimedia Clip of the Week: Clinton Parodies The Sopranos



To announce the results of her campaign song contest, Clinton created a spoof of the final scene in the season finale of the popular HBO show The Sopranos and posted it on her website's homepage. It comes complete with Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" and a reference to Chelsea as a bad parallel parker. Check it out.


Thanks for reading! See you again next week.

From the L. A. Times

1. 40% of all workers in L. A. County ( L. A. County has 10.2 million people) are working for cash and not paying taxes. This is because they are predominantly illegal immigrants working without a green card.

2. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.

3. 75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal aliens.

4. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi-Cal , whose births were paid for by taxpayers.

5. Nearly 35% of all inmates in California detention centers are Mexican nationals here illegally.

6. Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in garages.

7. The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegal aliens from south of the border.

8. Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.

9. 21 radio stations in L. A. are Spanish speaking.

10. In L. A. County 5.1 million people speak English, 3.9 million speak Spanish.
(There are 10.2 million people in L. A. County. )


(All 10 of the above are from the Los Angeles Times)

Less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops, but 29% are on welfare.

Over 70% of the United States' annual population growth (and over 90% of California, Florida , and New York) results from immigration.

29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens.

We are a bunch of fools for letting this continue.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Send copies of this letter to at least two other people . 100 would be even better

The research Nader's campaign touts, says there base is more Republican than Democratic, so he actually takes more votes away from Republicans. Which could be bad for Paul. Though, I saw that on their website in 2004, not sure if its still on his site.

Brilliant observation, David. Thanks for that. 2004, huh?

Ralph Nader is not running for president in 2008 so I don't think he's going to take many votes from anybody, particularly Dr. Paul. Nader likes Dr. Paul. Nader cuts into the Democratic base -- ask any Democrat -- and was credited with putting King George on the throne by taking away votes that would have normally gone for Gore, had Gore not been such a loser.
