President of the United States.
That announcement - combined with polls showing me leading Hillary
Clinton in key early primary states - set off a firestorm of attacks from
Democrats and their pals in the national media.
The Washington machine fears my candidacy more than any
other. They know my support is growing.
And they know I'm determined to take our country back from
the tax-and-spenders in BOTH parties and the Big Government special interests
that have sunk our nation $18.2 TRILLION in debt and made a mockery of our
Constitution.
But right now is an absolutely critical time for my
campaign.
That's why I'm counting on you to please fill out your DEFEAT
THE WASHINGTON MACHINE Petition and rush it back to me right away.
If you listen to the media and some in the Republican
establishment, candidates like me who are willing to fight
back aren't supposed to be popular.
They tell us this presidential race has already been
decided, and say November 2016 will be a showdown between two candidates with yesterday's
last names pushing yesterday's Big Government policies.
I guess they say the best way for our Republican Party to
beat Hillary Clinton is to be more like her! But my travels to Iowa, New Hampshire, South
Carolina and Nevada all tell me they couldn't be more wrong. Americans are
thirsting
for a candidate who will boldly defend and advance our
shared limited government principles.
They understand we can't continue to spend like there's no
tomorrow. They understand we can't allow our Constitution to
be shredded before our eyes.
They understand we can't allow career politicians to
continue to pass laws for the rest of us while living under a different set themselves.
They understand this President's ham-handed foreign policy
and misguided intervention has only emboldened and strengthened ISIS and other
Islamic terrorists.
I believe that's why polls show me leading Hillary Clinton
in key swing states like Pennsylvania, Colorado and Iowa - all states President
Obama won in both 2008 and 2012.
In fact, some in the press have dubbed me "Hillary Clinton's
Kryptonite," and her staff is even attacking me by name
in memos to top left-wing donors!
They know my bold plans to defeat the Washington machine and
unleash prosperity are resonating among American citizens like never before,
including:
Cutting spending and our ballooning national debt by
eliminating waste and stopping special treatment for those
with the best lobbyists;
Cutting taxes for ALL American citizens. More money in the
hands of those who earned it is proven to create jobs. Period.
I think it's time to put Washington, D.C. on a diet;
Enacting a Balanced Budget Amendment to stop politicians
from piling debts on our children and grandchildren they can never repay;
Passing term limits to end the reign of career politicians
in
Washington;
Forcing Members of Congress to actually read the bills they
pass, and stop their habit of ramming thousand-page bills
into law at the last minute before anyone knows what's being voted on;
Totally repealing ObamaCare to stop the soaring health
insurance premium costs, policy cancellations, shuttered
hospitals and poorer quality healthcare that have all
resulted
from this outrageous federal takeover;
Auditing the Federal Reserve to end the "print-now, ask-questions-later"
policies that result in boom-bust economic
cycles like the recent housing and financial crises;
Protecting the entire Bill of Rights. That means protecting
not just our religious liberties, political speech and gun
rights. It also means ending NSA spying to protect
Americans' right to privacy under the Fourth Amendment and restoring state prerogatives
under the Tenth Amendment.
I'm running for President to turn our country around - to
bring
it back from the brink. That means I'm going to leave no stone
unturned. I'm not writing off any vote.
Americans of all backgrounds understand Washington, D.C. is broken.
One recent poll showed that only about
one quarter of Americans believe our nation is on the right track!
If our Republican Party has a nominee that's willing to compete
for every vote - one handshake, one speech, and one rally at a time - we can
defeat the Washington machine.
I believe I'm that candidate. I believe my rock-solid
defense of the U.S. Constitution provides a bright roadmap for the future of our
party and our country.
Hillary Clinton offers nothing but Big Government and
baggage. Even after Benghazi and the
deletion of 30,000 secret emails she wrote as Secretary of State, it appears
she gave special treatment to foreign governments who wrote fat checks to her "charitable"
foundation.
The Washington machine is rotten to the core. Sadly, it's
not
just Democrats. Take
a look at our soaring debt over the past 20 years, and you'll see BOTH parties
are to blame for the mess we're in today.
For daring to stand up to the Big Government establishment
they're going to come after me with everything they have.
With your help, these are the conservative principles I'm
hoping to rally our country and our party around.
The campaign events, bumper stickers, phone banks, radio
ads, Internet and TV ads it takes to run a successful campaign all cost money.
And the early stages of any campaign – when candidates must fight to break
through - are often the most critical. Under federal law, the maximum contribution
is $2,700 per individual and $5,400 per couple.
My bold plans to defeat the Washington machine combined with
polls showing me leading Hillary Clinton in key early primary states set off a
firestorm of attacks from Democrats and their pals in the national media.
I'd be honored to receive your support. In liberty, Rand
Paul U.S. Senator (R-KY)
