CALL TO ACTION on Endorsement Questionnaire!


Dear Fellow Asian Americans and Friends,

Call to Action!


Presidential election is the perfect time for “collective bargaining” via a SWING BLOC vote.

By focusing on Battle Ground States (BGS) which are currently split ~50/50, a small minority like AsAms can decisively affect the election outcome, and hence motivate politicians to court our votes. Hold them accountable through a written and enforceable pledge to our community!

Please send e-mails to urge the two presidential candidates to respond to our questionnaire http://www.80-20initiative.net/news/preselect2012_questionaire.asp

Obama Campaign Manager Jim Messina: JMessina@barackobama.com
Political Director Katherine Archuleta: karchuleta@barackobama.com

Romney Campaign manager Matt Rhoades: MRhoades@mittromney.com
Chief of staff Kelli Harrison: kharrison@mittromney.com

When solicited by either campaign, please answer "I will not contribute to your campaign until you have answered 80-20's questionnaire.  Indeed, if you are endorsed by 80-20 National Asian American PAC, I'll donate, vote for you, and try to get all friends & relatives to vote for you."

If polled on the phone, answer "undecided." If both R and D see in their own respective polls that a large % of Asian Ams are undecided, they'll court us a lot harder. Please pass this important message to all Asian Ams.

80-20 will hold its Endorsement Convention (EC) on Sunday, August 26 in Los Angeles.

Our membership elected EC delegates, comprised of equal numbers of Democrats, Republicans and Independents, will debate which candidate to endorse based on his deeds and pledges to our community and then the delegates will vote according to their informed judgment of the two candidates.  80-20 will endorse the candidate winning the majority of delegates’ votes.

Together we can make a difference!
