Team Huck ... What Does It Look Like?
by Peggy Erickson - Minnesota Coordinator
I got an e-mail from a Republican Party committee person who expressed interest in what we are doing at Team Huck. He wondered what that would look like. Here was my answer:
I can't really tell you what our efforts will look like in the months ahead. We want to see conservative candidates elected at all levels. And we want to get people involved in the process ... to make them feel like their opinions matter. We want them to feel like this is their government. Too many people feel disenfranchised right now and that makes your job and mine much harder. We want to change that, although I hesitate to even use the word change.
We are looking for leaders in every county who will help recruit people and raise funds so that we are ready to hit the ground running for the 2010 elections. We are looking for candidates Huck PAC can endorse and promote. Our teams will help with local rallies, with literature drops, with canvasing and the many other tasks involved in campaigns. Last year our volunteers made thousands of calls in support of conservative candidates through online phone banks.
Today Team Huck members were responsible for sending thousands of Red Envelopes to the White House. Next week they will send many more thousands of tea bags to Congress. They have taken part in and will take part in Tea Parties all over the country and are even planning a campaign in July. The enthusiasm and energy that have gone into these events will also go to supporting candidates. Just give us good candidates and we will give them willing volunteers. There is much we can do, but first we need to get everyone involved in the process. I hope this answers your question.

It's time for a true conservative party that stands on our founding Christian principles with no PC or appologies. I'm not sure the current republican party fills that bill.

My comment:
God knows where this is headed!
One fact is for sure that stands out from the campaign and that is
[b]"I stand for Main Street, not Wall Street!"[/b] The entire platform of your campaign Governor Huckabee is exactly where the American people will head when they are finally woke up as these tea parties, 9/12 indicate.
Fair Tax Please!!! If there is one factor that the GOP must get their Platomic infected minds around is that the Fair Tax plan is a must for the GOP to survive. The tax structure now in place is big government pure and simple. It is weakening this Nation, for what ever reason: to provide for those tin foil one world crowd shadow people in Washington to destroy the dollar; or because they are so self centered they cannot see that after the free trade policy was implemented, our tax structure became an excise tax on American business, thus the real reason we lost all those manufacturing jobs. If it was planned to share the wealth of American enterprise to those around the world , it worked.
Now is the time to end this charade and bring about fair free trade, and liberty and freedom the individual worker. It is time for blue collar conservative America to dominate the GOP and the Democrats!
The Nationalism jig is up and over with. It is [b]time for States to take back their sovereignty[/b]
Make sure the candidates we support are on board for the Fair Tax, the Constitution as Written and for inalienable rights and Morals set forth by GOD!!!
