The MOB Hands Us an October Surprise
Opposed to the bailout of Wall Street crooks?
Donate $10 now to Nader/Gonzalez.
Why?
We’re in the tenth month of our campaign.
And we’re in the final two day stretch of our $150,000 Three Way Race Fundraising Drive.
Thanks to you, we’re in striking distance.
We’re at $110,000 with two days to go.
We need 4,000 of you, our loyal supporters, to donate $10 each.
Let’s crank it up.
And get it done.
Our strategy all year long — put Nader/Gonzalez in a position to break through.
And together, we did it.
We put Nader/Gonzalez on 45 state ballots — and the District of Columbia.
Then, all of a sudden, here comes the MOB.
With an October surprise.
The MOB?
That would be McCain/Obama/Bush.
With the Mother Of all Bailouts.
McCain/Obama/Bush are pushing hard for the bailout of Wall Street crooks.
While Nader/Gonzalez stand with the American people in opposition.
Why are we in this mess?
As Richard Fischer, the president of the Federal Reserve in Dallas put it yesterday, we’re in this mess because of "a sustained orgy of excess and reckless behavior."
Why then should we bail out those who engaged in the orgy?
We shouldn’t.
And it’s time to stand up and speak in one loud and clear voice.
No to the bailout.
Vote Ralph Nader.
The man who for his entire career has pushed for tough law and order regulation of Wall Street.
Regulation that would have prohibited the orgy of excess and reckless behavior.
The bailout of Wall Street crooks will be the number one issue throughout October.
And we need your help now to gear up to drive home the message.
Throughout this campaign, you have never let us down.
We have met every fundraising goal we have set for ourselves.
Right now, we’re at $110,000 in our Three Way Race Fund.
And we have to hit $150,000 by tomorrow midnight.
We have climbed this hill before.
Right now, we need 4,000 of you, our loyal supporters, to donate $10 each.
This week, Ralph Nader and Matt Gonzalez are traveling up the California coast.
Pounding home the message — no bailout for Wall Street crooks.
There is crisis.
There is movement.
Which way will it turn?
It’s up to you.
Our loyal supporters.
So, let’s crank it up.
And get it done.
Onward to November
The Nader Team
PS: And remember, if you donate $100 now, we’ll ship to you a copy of The Ralph Nader Reader, a 441-page collection of Ralph’s writings on Wall Street vs. Main Street, democracy, the corporate state, and our hyper-commercialized culture. If you donate $100 now, we will send you this diverse collection — and Ralph will autograph it. (This book offer ends at 11:59 p.m. September 30, 2008.)
