OUR OWN MR. B. NEEDS OUR HELP TO RUN FOR CALIF. STATE ASSEMBLY!!
e-mail | John W. Brantuk, Sr.

Posted on 11/04/2001 10:54:48 AM PST by Mercuria

To My Dear Friends and Supporters,

I am writing you today regarding two very serious items:

1. To announce that I am running for the California State Assembly, District 56;

2. To let you know that I urgently need your help in this endeavor today.

Please read on . . .

Due to the combination of redistricting and term limits, there is no incumbent running for reelection in the 56th Assembly District. This resulting open seat is a wonderful opportunity for us to really make a difference in our State Government. As of this writing, there are only 2 major party candidates running for this seat; a Liberal Democrat, and me, a dedicated Conservative Constitutional Republican.

There is one pressing problem, however. We must raise the funds to pay the exorbitant filing fees (approximately $1000) required by the State of California in order to qualify for the ballot by the beginning of the coming week, as well as many other miscellaneous expenses. As I write this, we are far short of the goal.

Please note that no other Conservative Republican has stepped up to run for this open seat, and if we do not raise the funds necessary to secure my place on the ballot, we may well find ourselves in the untenable position of having a liberal Democrat running virtually unopposed for this seat. We must not allow that to happen!

Many of you have encouraged me to run for this office; I ask you now to please help make that possible by sending the largest contribution you possibly can today.

Please make your checks out to:

"Brantuk for Assembly" or "John W. Brantuk" (whichever is easier)

and mail them today, or as soon as possible to:

Brantuk for Assembly
P.O. Box 171
Whittier, CA 90608

If you'd like to make a donation immediately from your checking account or your credit card, you can also click on the following link and make it now using PayPal:

Contribute via PayPal

One last note: Please be aware that once elected it is likely that I will serve only one term in the Assembly. My actions in office will not be colored by thoughts of reelection, but only by doing what is right and what truly upholds the Constitution.

My purpose in office will not be to make friends; my purpose will be to make a positive difference, no matter who's feathers I ruffle.

Thank you for your support. I value it more that I can express.

Best regards,

John W. Brantuk, Sr.
Candidate for Assembly, 56th District
Current Chairman, 58th Assembly District Republican Central Committee
Member, California Republican Party
Phone: (562) 698-2870
Fax: (562) 698-2810

P.S. Whether or not you are in a position to make a donation today, please forward this request on to others who may be able to help. We must raise the necessary funds quickly.

Time is of the essence.

Again, I sincerely thank you.

Mr. B. is:
1 - Pro-Second Amendment,
2 - a FReeper,
3 - running against a liberal DemocRAT,
4 - an honest man,
5 - a nice guy, and
6 - endorsed by Mercuria!

Any ONE of the above would justify supporting him!!!

GO MR. B.!!!

My $20 is on the way, as soon as I track down my PayPal password.

Don't even get me started with redistricting...

(But I ended up in Bob Pacheco's 60th)

Mr. B hosts our monthly ATF nite. Past guests have included Geoff Mecalf(Recall Davis.com), Terry Anderson(The Prisoner of South Central), J.J. Johnston(Editor, Sierra Times), Dr.James Hirsen(Constitutional Law Prof. Trinity Law School and friend of the 2A) and hopefully in the near future Rev. Jesse Lee Peteerson(B.O.N.D.).

Mr. B. is staunchly pro-2A and anti illegal immigration. He is a true constitutional patriot and a personal friend.

Mr. Brantuk was a write-in candidate in last November's election.

Here's a list of where he stands on the issues, but for your ease, here is what he stated re: Immigration:

"Illegal immigration is just that - illegal. I believe we need to take a good, close, hard look at current immigration plicies. During the current Administration, we have opened the floodgates without giving the necessary time to those who have already immigrated to assimilate. We need to tighten our borders in order to promote the 'melting pot' phenomenon over Balkanization. I am 100% against amnesty for illegal immigrants currently residing here. Legal immigration is good for our country, but we need to have a wise policy on how many new people to allow per year in order to better affect assimilation."

OK, check's on the way.

Met John at ATF night in September, and thought he was pretty squared away. He should make a good candidate if he gets the support needed to mount a campaign.

Please send FReepmail or post with ways to help the campaign.

Will he work to deport illegal aliens?

A definite YES! I understand the meaning of the word "illegal." It fries me that the current officeholders don't seem to get it. They are not "undocumented" they are ILLEGAL. That means they have already chosen to break our laws, are continuing to break our laws by remaining here, and we need to send the message that if you break our laws you will pay the consequences, not be rewarded for it!
