 Dear Erick, For decades, I've been warning about the dangers of U.S. government surveillance programs being used against American citizens. Of course, snoop-state insiders laughed at me every time I raised concerns about allowing the federal government to read the emails, monitor the online activity, and seize the phone records of Americans without obtaining a warrant. But no one is laughing now . . . That's why I'm counting on you to sign your Fourth Amendment Pledge of Support to show you stand with Campaign for Liberty on this issue IMMEDIATELY. I'll give you the link in a moment, but first let me explain why it's critical you and I stop federal snoops from casting fishing nets over the lives, histories, and data of hardworking Americans. As I'm sure you know, last week, news reports revealed that Barack Obama's National Security Agency (NSA) has been snooping through the emails and phone records of millions of Americans each and every day. And the information that's surfaced so far is disturbing to say the least: *** The NSA is collecting and storing HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of U.S. phone records; *** The NSA is gathering audio, video, email, photographic, and Internet search usage of Americans who use major providers such as Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Apple, and Yahoo; *** Overall, the NSA collected 97 BILLION pieces of intelligence from computer networks in March 2013 alone and three billion pieces of intelligence from U.S. computer networks over a 30-day period. If you agree that Barack Obama's out-of-control NSA must be stopped, please sign your Fourth Amendment Pledge of Support to show you stand with Campaign for Liberty on this issue IMMEDIATELY.  There's not a moment to waste. Already, knee-jerk defenders of the police state are circling the wagons around Barack Obama's illegal wiretapping and surveillance of American citizens. In fact, Senator Lindsey Graham said he's "glad" the government was seizing Verizon customers' phone records - including his own - because it needed to know "what the enemy was up to." Unlike Senator Graham, I don't believe the government needs to know more about what innocent Americans are doing in their daily lives. Instead, you and I need to know more about what Barack Obama's NSA is up to. You see, not only does the NSA's snooping program violate the Fourth Amendment freedoms of the American people, but it also opens the door for massive fraud and abuse. Think about it. The government is looking at every Internet click, every email, and every phone call, and they're using phone GPS systems to track Americans. Here's how the NSA's program works. There's a computer program with an algorithm written to analyze the massive amount of data coming in and determine whether or not someone fits the description of a terrorist and should be watched. If the program labels you a potential threat, then snoop-state insiders can access your emails, phone calls, and other private records to see what you've been doing. After Barack Obama's IRS recently got caught targeting those who oppose his Big Government policies, and Eric Holder's Department of Justice was found to be seizing the phone records of reporters, why should the American people trust bureaucrats in the federal government to protect their Fourth Amendment freedoms? How long before someone changes the program to target gun owners? How long before the program is tweaked to target people based on voting records and political beliefs? I don't know about you, but I don't want to find out. That's why I'm counting on you to sign your Fourth Amendment Pledge of Support to Campaign for Liberty IMMEDIATELY. With your help, Campaign for Liberty can send powerful emails and run Facebook and Internet banner ads to shine a public spotlight on the NSA's wiretapping, eavesdropping, and spying on American citizens. But I'm afraid that simply won't be enough. Campaign for Liberty staff tells me if they pull out all the stops, there's an additional twelve million folks they can reach through targeted direct mail and phone programs. And finally, if they can raise the resources, Campaign for Liberty would also like to run hard-hitting newspaper, radio, and TV ads explaining exactly what Barack Obama and the rest of the snoop-state insiders at the NSA are up to. So please make a generous contribution to Campaign for Liberty IMMEDIATELY. Erick, the American people are in shock over the NSA's surveillance program - and they're looking for answers. And since you and I have been sounding the alarm for years about the government spying on American citizens, this is a real opportunity to reach out and bring more individuals into our Liberty Movement. So please sign your Fourth Amendment Pledge of Support to Campaign for Liberty and make a generous contribution to help mobilize millions of Americans to this fight. Some folks may be able to contribute as much as $500 to this fight. Others can only give $100 or $50. But no matter how much you give, whether it's chipping in with $10 or a larger contribution of $150, your contribution is urgently needed and will be deeply appreciated. Don't let Barack Obama's mouthpieces in the media get away with sweeping this issue under the rug. Please sign your Fourth Amendment Pledge of Support to Campaign for Liberty right away. In Liberty,  Ron Paul Chairman P.S. Last week, news reports revealed that Barack Obama's National Security Agency (NSA) has been snooping through the emails and phone records of millions of Americans each and every day. Of course, in typical statist fashion, knee-jerk defenders of the police state are circling the wagons around Barack Obama and his NSA. You and I must not allow snoop-state insiders to sweep this issue under the rug. That's why I'm counting on you to sign your Fourth Amendment Pledge of Support to show you stand with Campaign for Liberty on this issue IMMEDIATELY. After you sign your Pledge, I hope you'll chip in $10 or $20 to help Campaign for Liberty mobilize a grassroots army of Americans to shine a public spotlight on the NSA's wiretapping, eavesdropping, and spying on American citizens. |
