We can have an impact.

Ray Morton for Congress, along with a contingent of Santa Clara 
candidates needs your support.  It is *imperative* that we support these 
guys with our time and ... maybe money.  We must change leadership if we 
are to retain our rights and sovereignty.

You can help in 3 ways.  

1.)  Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, Bob Wick is holding a mailing.  We 
need about 10 people to put labels on newsletters.  Bob's number is 408 
296-3300.  I will post directions tomorrow after I call Bob.

2.) Ray is silk-screening his own signs.  He's fixing a
turn-of-the-century printing press.  He frugal, but needs cash.  This is
another deal where a few thousand dollars can drain hundreds of thousands
from the Democrats' war-chest.  Send 10 bucks... (the cost of a rack of 
45 ACP cartridges)... anything to: 

Morton for Congress
PO box 390726
Mountain View, CA  94039-0726
415 964-1017.

He needs help posting signs.  He needs a pickup truck.  This may not be 
what you want to do, but it is the MOST effective way of killing anti-gun 
legislation.

3.  The NRA and GOC can make money available for pro-gun candidates.  NRA
has not committed to supporting Ray (or any of his opponents).  Please put
some pressure on NRA and GOC to get them to back Ray.  Again, he's running
for Anna Eshoo's 14 congressional district seat. 

NRA Sacto contact:  Ed Whorley 916 446-2455
GOC Contact:  John E. Stods 916 361-3109.

Ask why they haven't endorsed Ray Morton.

DO THIS STUFF QUICKLY.  TOMORROW.  THE PRIMARY IS ON JUNE 7TH.  WE HAVE 
14 DAYS LEFT TO GET THE WORD OUT.

Craig Shaver and I met Ray for two hours tonight.  He is an articulate, 
former Green Beret who has done his research.  He quotes Supreme court 
cases, with ease,  regarding gun control.  He is not afraid of stating the 
real purpose of the 2nd amendment.  He seems to be a very committed and 
principled man. The polls show him winning the primary, but his opponent 
has deep pockets and will be saturating the streets in the next two weeks.

I'm not usually enamoured by politicians, but this guy is sincere.  He is
a devout Constitutionalist.  He should be a Libertarian. 

Liberty from tyranny,
