[GPSCC-chat] Fwd: Let's Crash the Conventions!

[Brian Good]

I've always been slow to donate, 'cause how much could my $10 or $20 make a difference? 
Besides, it cuts into the beer budget!

We have over 100,000 Greens in California alone, and if everybody gave $10 that would be
a million dollars right there!

So here's my deal:  for everybody that emails me and tells me they've donated, I will donate
$10 to this campaign.  Your $10 gets matched twice--once by me, and then again (up to $250)
by the Feds.  Your $10 becomes $40!  25 of you at $10 each will bring in $1000!

And here's the kicker: my contribution comes out of my weekly beer budget.  I will not buy any 
alcohol until I've paid back my contribution.

This is a win-win-win-win-win prospect!  Quadruple your money, get national exposure for the
Greens and help me kick an unhealthy habit all at the same time!

Dear Friend,






As corporate lobbyists wine and dine the Republican and Democratic
national committees in Tampa and Charlotte, Jill Stein and Cheri
Honkala are beating at their doors.
Right now, Cheri is in the streets of Tampa with the Poor People's
Economic Human Rights Campaign and the tent city at Romneyville. Next
week, Jill will arrive in Charlotte. And soon, with your help,
we'll all be beating the drums of social progress together,
as we launch our first major media campaign!
That's right. We may be coming to a cable channel near
you. We've hired one of the most famous political advertising
firms in the country. We've cut the ads. And the only question is how
many millions of voters will see these ads.
We have until Thursday, September 6th, to raise at least $80,000.
If we succeed in doing that, our ads will run in college town
media markets from the Pacific to the Mississippi to the
Atlantic. If we raise $120,000, we'll have viewership in
medium sized cities of population 500,000 to 2 million. And if you
help us raise $200,000, we'll be on in at least a couple major
metropolitan areas.
The more money we raise, the higher chance that
YOUR community will see one of these ads (you can see sneak
preview pics from the shooting of these ads at right).
The timing is vital. The primary season ends on Thursday
September 6th. This means that you only have until September
6th to get your contributions matched, dollar for dollar, up to $250,
with federal matching funds. And this means that you only have until
September 6th to donate the maximum allowable contribution of
$2500. 
Time is running short for another
reason. We have to buy these ads now, well ahead of September
6th, so that these ads actually run in the primary season. Federal law
requires that our matching funds monies be used in the primaries, by
September 6th, and this means that we must reserve our cable and TV ad
times right now.
See the graph below to get a sense of how many
college town, medium city, and major metro media markets we can reach
at each level of fundraising. And please donate right now: http://www.JillStein.org/donate

Please donate right now: http://www.JillStein.org/donate. The
more we raise, the more ads people will see, and the more we break
through the noise of the political conventions. 

Let's
crash the conventions!
