NOTE: The election is fast approaching, yet an astounding number of people aren't aware of some critically important facts. Hopefully this email can change some of that, if we share it with enough people. I ask that you don't assume that just because you may know these facts that most potential voters do. BTW, I'm going phone banking tonight so I believe that we need to do EVERYTHING we can to win, and that includes getting this information into millions of homes via email!
1)-If you make less than $112,000 a year as an individual (not household income, individual income) . You make up part of the 80% of Americans in this category.
If you make between $112,000-$227,000 a year as an individual .
If you make between $227,000-$603,000 a year as an individual .
2)-. That will push many Americans into a higher income bracket meaning you could pay thousands per year more in taxes.
3)-If you think corporations don't pay enough taxes you aren't alone. According to the non-partisan GAO . Despite this which will ultimately cost us about 1.3 trillion dollars.
4)-If you think oil companies aren't paying their fair share, you aren't alone. (again). Despite this fact John McCain wants to slash their taxes by 10% and not take back the .
5)-If you think Republicans are not fiscally responsible you aren't alone. . Republican Ronald , from George Washington to Jimmy Carter, combined. Now George Bush may borrow even more more than Reagan. Democratic president Bill Clinton is the only president in the last 30 years to not only not create any debt, but to finish with a budget surplus.
6)-If you think , you're not alone. , meaning our tax dollars are flushed down the toilet for things that no longer benefit us, assuming they ever did. Higher debt means our money is worth less which makes gas, food and just about everything else more expensive. A conservative estimate is that .
7)-If you think middle class families do better financially with a Democrat as president, you aren't alone. According to research out of Princeton, compared to when a Republican is president.
8)-If you think focusing on which (current and former) candidates wear a flag pin is a waste of time that distracts us from , you're not alone. After all, why should it bother you that ?
9)-Some people say you can judge someone based on the company they keep. That's interesting, because John McCain went out of his way to get the endorsement of Reverend Hagee. Most people have never heard of Hagee, possibly because , while the media has in fact spent more talking about Obama (than McCain) most of that time has been spent saying negative things about him.
How else could you explain that fact that so few people know that McCain's Reverend Hagee referred to the Catholic Church as "the great whore" or that ? And that's in addition to .
Also, . I guess that explains why McCain's policies mostly benefit the richest and most powerful among us?
10)-Finally, many people believe you can judge a man by how he treats his family, and adultery is incredibly serious to people (and of course it's the topic of ). Some people are aware that John McCain cheated on his first wife Carol with his current wife Cindy (who was 18 years younger and quite wealthy), but they aren't aware that .
In light of all of this information you have to ask yourself: If the facts don't support John McCain, why should you?
