Film, "America…From Freedom to Fascism"

Film, "America…From Freedom to Fascism,"

Overflow & Ovations In Denver

Large Crowd Requires Second Theater

For the second consecutive week, award-winning producer Aaron Russo's
new feature film, "America…From Freedom to Fascism," moved an advance
screening audience to a standing ovation -- this time in Denver,
Colorado.

The film demonstrates in a most convincing way that America is
dominated by a self-anointed ruling class of intellectual, political
and financial elitists – a would-be ruling class that views our sacred
Constitution and Bill of Rights with contempt as it continues its
insidious assault on individual Rights and America's historic,
essential principles.

And, for the second consecutive week, the audience gave a standing
ovation to WTP's DVD on the Right to Petition. The audience voiced its
strong support for WTP's historic use of the First Amendment's
Petition Clause to check the elitists by holding the government
accountable to the Constitution.

As was the case in Tucson, the audience donated thousands of dollars
to help WTP meet the costs associated with the Right To Petition
lawsuit, including the events WTP will sponsor in Washington, DC in April.

Due to an overflow in attendance in Denver, a second theater was
opened to show the two DVDs.

Thanks in part to WTP's press releases, newspaper advertising and
radio interviews a significant number of people attended the events in
Tucson and Denver who had no prior knowledge of the subjects presented
on the two DVDs and were not aware of the battle for Freedom going on
in America. They expressed their shock and dismay. Noteworthy is the
fact that the two theater managers on hand in Denver quietly admitted
that they too, had watched the two videos and expressed interest in
further supporting the WTP organization.

Packed Denver theater

More photos and audio reports from the Denver event have been posted
on the WTP Congress's new "blog" website,
http://wtpcongress.blogspot.com, which is being publicly released for
a trial period and evaluation.

The next screenings for Russo's film and the WTP video about the
landmark Right-to-Petition lawsuit will be next weekend (February
11th) in Austin, Texas and on February 18th in Tampa Florida. Mr.
Russo is planning to personally attend the Austin event. See details
below.

Because of the growing awareness of the WTP regional events, the
Foundation is attempting to secure, as is practicable, somewhat larger
theaters for the showings and is also adding several new cities to the
regional meeting schedule including Lansing, Michigan (Sunday, March
19) and a special evening showing in Beverly Hills, California area,
tentatively scheduled for the evening of March 2nd. Several other
schedule changes and additions will be announced this week.

We are using the new WTP DVD documentary about the Right-to-Petition
lawsuit to encourage donations so the Foundation can fund the

Please remember, there is much to do and it is only through your

We urge all the 1700+ Plaintiffs in the history-making lawsuit, as
well as every other WTP supporter to consider making a significant
financial commitment so that we may conclude what our organization has
begun: The awakening of the soul of America and the reclamation of
Freedom.

As Thomas Paine wrote in Common Sense: "We have it in our power to
begin the world anew "

send you the DVD documenting the events

through Washington.
