You're Running for the Senate

I announced today that Im running for the Senate. If you read these posts, then theres a good chance that you and I think alike. We are kindred spirits. We see things the same way.
So in a way, its sort of like youre running for the Senate. Im just doing it for you.
Think about it. You and I have a lot of shared beliefs, a lot of shared values. You and I see what needs to be done, and how to do it. If I make it to the Senate, theres a good chance that Ill do that job just as you would.
And one thing is for sure: You deserve your support. As the Jewish scholar Hillel asked, If I will not be for myself, who will be for me?
The same goes for me: I deserve your support. Because if Im elected, then I will do that job the way you would. I will be a champion for justice, equality, compassion and peace.
I think that you should support your candidacy with a modest contribution. You can join thousands and thousands of others who contribute $20.16 each month. Or a lump sum of $20, $50, $100 or $500. Every dollar counts, because every person counts.
Lets be realistic. You may not make it to the Senate next year. But there is a great chance that I will if you help. And thats almost as good, isnt it?
I need your help, today, so that I can be a Senator that you will be proud of. Just as if you had the job.
Courage,
Rep. Alan Grayson
Candidate for the U.S. Senate
