I like to befriend people who don't know anything about firearms and take them to the shooting range. It is one of the reasons I bought a .22 target pistol.

300,000 Iraqi Freedom veterans will help the cause a lot.
They will have some direct experience of what happens when tyrants take over a nation, and they will want none of that.

Will we have the courage and committment to turn-out a popular war-time republican president in the event he re-authorizes the 'assault-weapon' ban? If we don't then we lose again.

What do you mean "we", Kemo Sabe?
The Eddie Eagle safety programs from the NRA are in the schools. The Boy Scouts are helped by volunteers of the NRA. The Second Amendment Sisters and the Liberty Belles are outreaching to the women. JPFO is outreaching to the Jewish community which usually votes dem.
Where we haven't made any headway is with the liberal media. If it's not on TV or the newspapers, as far as most people are concerned, it didn't happen.
My only suggestion would be to make sure that the local shooting competitions are mentioned in the newspaper.

I just returned from visiting friends in Las Vegas. (These are good folks even though they voted for Clinton.) Neither had ever fired a gun before, so just for laughs I took them to a
range in Vegas where you can rent Class III (full auto} firearms to shoot on their rage.
We purchased some life sized Osama and Saddam targets and had a BLAST!
They are both hooked, and when they left they were planning on getting carry permits!
Shooting machine guns is a GREAT way to "turn on" a newbie!

I've read all the PRO RKBA material, joined organizations, talked about it and gave it a lot of thought.
I've decided that I agree completely with your sentiments and came up with the only answer I could think of. I created a web site to try and help it happen.
Perhaps you could study the site and recommend some rewriting as I'm no writer!
