Note From The General
"Talk about an internet campaign strategy! I flew into Little Rock last night for 3 days to get my voice back! So, it's ALL internet now!

We had a great week: released my public service proposal; met some great people in Florida, New York, New Mexico and Nevada; and released my efficiency reports - "OERs" (Officer Evaluation Reports) - yesterday to give folks an idea of what I've done with my life.

There's very strong interest in the candidacy, and it's growing around the country! We need all your support for this. I think many people are beginning to realize how important this election really is...it's not "business as usual." What's at stake is more than the next four years - it is really about what kind of future we want for our country...should government represent the governed, or just direct them? ...should governement respect dialogue and discussion, or just brand it as disloyal and unpatriotic. One path leads us to a cleaner, more transparent democracy - I don't like to think about where the other path leads...but it won't well-represent the values of freedom and democracy.

The New American Patriotism I've talked about is emerging strongly around the country. These are people who want to pitch in and help, not just wave flags. And these patriots also understand that what we're protecting isn't just our borders against an invasion but also our rights and ideals against their compromise. That's why one of the strongest reactions I get is in pointing out that in a democracy in time of war, dialogue and debate, disagreement and dissension are the essence of patriotism - not a failure but a celebration of who we are as a nation! No Administration has the right to say that if you disagree, it's unpatriotic!
