Attachment 4: 2nd Set of Letters Sent Out.
Basic Proposal:
Objective: Encourage One or several of the conservative candidates for President to visit East Texas prior to the Labor Day Straw Poll Method: Sponser an event that would draw at least 150-200 Conservative Grass Roots voters
Suggested Event: The 2nd Annual Hunt County GOP Club Family Fun Picnic is scheduled for July 28th (Saturday) 2007. That is exactly 34 days prior to the Straw Poll. If the Hunt County GOP Club and several other East Texas County Organizations banded together we could (possibly) pull together enough conservative grass roots voters to entice these candidates to come talk to us. Realisticly no one single county or group in East Texas is large enough with enough votes to catch the attention of one of these Presidential candidates. They will visit Dallas, Ft Worth, San Antonio, Houston and the other “BIG” cities and bypass our smaller communities for logistic reasons. They can speak to more voters at a single setting in one of the larger cities. However, by several of us banding together to co-sponsor the event we can (I think) catch their attention.

Bill, Thank you so much. I just got the letters ready to go. I hope they will take you up on it. If they do we will have sooo many people who will attend, which I stated in my letters. I will mail them tomorrow. Jerry should get his done tonight. I will let you know if I get a response. Pam----- Original Message -----
