I’m in, with whatever I can spare of both time and money. Time I’ve plenty of, money not so much. But what I can do I will.

Awaiting his jump into the race. Had planned to go to an event featuring Rudy but decided to hold off and give my money to Fred...count me in! Anybody from Alabama will get my look-see! Sure miss the South.

I hope someone asks Fred about his position on the FairTax.This would do him a world of good as more people get on board this issue.The main issue of course is shutting down the leaking borders.

He will get a lot more than $100 from me in different installments throughout his campaign.
To: ct235
If a mere 50,000 of us do it?
I don’t think there are that many Freepers; are there?

I’m in for the $100 bucks and the beach house.
To: ct235
This is a great idea. He’s got my $100.
Starting things off with an avalanche of donations could get him a lot of attention all by itself. It might also be enough to clear the field of some lesser knowns and knock a RINO or two on their butts.

Excuse the cut and paste-- I recently cobbled this together:
Fred is the only one I give enough of a damn about to vote for. And walk the streets for. Make of this what you will. I'm not going to argue with people around here, but until he popped up, I had decided to stay home election day 2008.
Yes, all the others were that bad, in my sight. Gawd-awful...
Here's a sampling of Fred- enough for everyone to make up their own minds:

He will get a lot more than $100 from me in different installments throughout his campaign.Ditto from me. I'll probably even make an initial contribution this Monday June 4, if the on-line method is up and running.
