Re:    What to do to make this happen

IT IS TIME TO GET OFF OUR COLLECTIVE BEHINDS AND DO SOMETHING TO                
MAKE THIS HAPPEN.  IN THE LAST 24 HOURS A LOT HAS HAPPENED IN THE               
CAMPAIGN.  MOST NOTABLY, WITH PEROT'S ENTRY, THE MEDIA ARE TALKING              
ABOUT THE "THREE CANDIDATES".  THIS MUST STOP.  PEROT IS SHOWING                
ABOUT 7% IN THE POLLS---NOT MUCH BETTER THAN ANDRE.  YET HE IS GETTING          
COVERAGE.                                                                       
                                                                                
WE ARE ASKING YOU TO INVEST MONEY IN YOUR TELEPHONE BILL.  THE FOLLOWING        
MESSAGE IS BEING SENT TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.  PLEASE            
ACT ON IT.  PLEASE PASS IT ON.  PLEASE GET ON THE PHONE AND CALL THESE          
PEOPLE.  PHONE CALLS ARE CHEAP.  DON'T WORRY ABOUT MAKING THEM ANGRY.           
THAT IS THE OBJECTIVE.  LET THEM KNOW HOW ANGRY WE ARE AND DON'T STOP           
CALLING UNTIL THEY START REPORTING THE TRUTH.                                   
                                                                                
THE MEDIA HAS A HISTORY OF RESPONDING TO "PUBLIC DEMONSTRATIONS."  SO           
LET'S GIVE THEM AN ELECTRONIC DEMONSTRATION THAT THEY WON'T FORGET!

It is crucial that ALL libertarians call the following                          
news organizations, OVER AND OVER, starting on Monday, October 5,               
at 9AM EDT:                                                                     
                                                                                
(1) to tell them you are angry,                                                 
                                                                                
(2) to demand that they stop being inaccurate and start to refer to             
all FOUR nationwide candidates,                                                 
                                                                                
(3) to demand that they include the fourth nationwide candidate,                
Andre Marrou, in all subsequent coverage.                                       
                                                                                
                                                                                
        ABC TV Network News     (212)   456-1000                                
                                                                                
        CBS TV Network News     (212)   975-4321                                
                                                                                
        NBC TV Network News     (212)   664-4971                                
                                                                                
                                                                                
Call and keep calling the same people until they get the message that           
you won't stop calling until they provide coverage. Make them know that         
they cannot avoid this issue, and that we will not go away.                     
                                                                                
CALL TEN LIBERTARIANS THAT YOU KNOW AND PASS THIS ENTIRE MESSAGE ALONG          
TO THEM.  WE HAVE STRENGTH IN OUR GROWING NUMBERS---LETS USE IT NOW.

Add this to your list of networks to call until they start giving               
us coverage:
