Our "Pass It On" congressional campaign is designed as a person-to-person alternative to conventional big-money political campaigns run by high-priced political consultants, pollsters, television, and radio producers, etc. Millions of dollars have been raised by corrupt political parties and their political action committees for this congressional election in our district. What, is Nevada for sale? We are proving that it is not. We're campaigning the hard way, but the right way, without selling our souls to the highest bidder, relying instead on the participation of ordinary citizens who are sick and tired of politics as usual.
"Pass It On" means, for example, that we are asking people to pass on our informational campaign email. All you need to do is forward this email (see below) to your friends and associates. Please do NOT send it as SPAM - that is, don't send it to people with whom you do not have a personal relationship. Our very polite “Pass It On” Campaign is a person-to-person communication about Nevada Vote Direct, with no automatic mailings and no robot telephone calls. (Feel free, by the way, to forward this email to people who live outside of Nevada. We hope to get the idea out far and wide for discussion by people everywhere.)
Here it is. If you agree that what it says should be considered by the voters, please "Pass It On." Just highlight, copy, and paste to a message in your email program.

Hello Friends,
I hope you will be interested in this information about Nevada Vote Direct, and about my campaign as an independent candidate for Congress. It has been sent to you by one of your friends or associates who believes that government should not be put up for sale to big-money special interests. And I hope you will consider passing this information on to your friends and associates (more about our “Pass It On Email” below.)
Our state of Nevada is set to make history this November, showing the whole nation how to eliminate political corruption and put citizens in control of government.
At Nevada Vote Direct, you and other registered voters in Nevada's 2nd Congressional District may vote not only on the issues of the day, but also on specific legislation pending in Congress. You will not be obliged to vote, and may vote only on the issues and bills that concern you. The system provides secure electronic voting in secret ballots conducted continuously on the Internet or by telephone, 24-hours a day.
But this is not just another opinion poll, for I have pledged that, when elected, I will vote in Congress EXACTLY as directed by the majority of voters in the 2nd congressional district. No lobbyists will even attempt to buy my vote, because my vote will belong to the majority of voters in our district - no ifs, ands or buts.
Nevada Vote Direct represents a historic new development in the application of technology to politics. But we are giving new life to a very old tradition. At Nevada Vote Direct, we are motivated by the ancient ideal of democratic freedom and liberty, of government by and for the people.
Big-money special interests have trampled on that ideal and have imposed on the nation a government that has contempt for the will of the people. First elections are purchased, and then legislation is auctioned off in a carnival atmosphere of cheap tricks and debauchery. In just our congressional district alone, in just this election year, millions of dollars have been raised by the political parties to decide who goes to Washington.
What? Is Nevada for sale?
Will you help us prevent the sale of our state? It will take only a few minutes after you read this email.
All you need to do is forward this email to your friends and associates. Please do NOT send it as SPAM - that is, don't send it to people with whom you do not have a personal relationship. Our very polite “Pass It On” Campaign is a person-to-person communication about Nevada Vote Direct, with no automatic mailings and no robot telephone calls. (Feel free, by the way, to forward this email to people who live outside of Nevada. We hope to get the idea out far and wide for discussion by people everywhere.)
Just cut and paste this “Pass It On Email” (or click the “Forward” Button) to your personal email list. If you like, you may change the word “Friend” in “Hello Friend” to the name of someone you know; and you may also add some words of your own to the beginning. Then hit “Send” and you're done.
Your actions can have a very powerful effect. Your friends will pass on the email to their friends. And their friends to their friends. All of us want honest government that truly represents the will of the people. With Nevada Vote Direct we can have it. But this depends on our letting enough people know that a vote for Daniel Rosen in November means citizen control of our representative in Washington for the first time in history. This is a way of reaching many thousands of voters in our district. All I need is 60,000 votes to win the election in November.
This is doable! Please don't underestimate the possibilities. Please take this email and “Pass It On.”
And, by the way, please consider helping us to fund
some end-of-campaign radio announcements. You may contribute on the Internet
