Dear Brigade,
        I just called all of my local bookstores, which are Barnes & Noble, Books A Million, B-Dalton, and Walden books. NONE of these companies have "A Republic, Not an Empire". These companies carry books such as the fundamentals of Wicca and numerous books dealing with the Satanic. Yet they do not carry a book written by a presidential candidate, focusing on the degradation of our great Nation-State into a multi-national Empire. I'm ordering my copy from Amazon.com this very hour. GO PAT!
       -- Todd Grantham

Dear Pat,
        I have been a Brigade member since '92, gladly walked precincts in Iowa in January of 96 when it was bloody cold and the windshields of cars in parking lots stuck to our gloves. It was an honor and if I lived to be 100 years old, I would still walk precincts in 20 degree temperature for the last American Statesman. GO PAT GO!

Dear Linda,
        I sent this letter to Rush - fyi:
Rush, Pat Buchanan has to be the most courageous man in America. I keep seeing this mob of people, frothing at the mouth and shaking their fists, shouting, "crucify him, crucify him!"   It is appalling how even those who might have once been considered his friends have now turned on him. And yet he does not retaliate with the same hate they hurl at him. That in itself speaks reams about Pat and his message.

Little do Buchanan's enemies know that they are strengthening the resolve of his supporters. Here's something from the beatitudes that seems to fit Pat's situation:   "Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven.
       -- Kay Knudsen - New York City

Dear Linda,
        Saw Pat with Sean Hannity last night. He was excellent as usual. Pat's conversation with Sean was almost surreal when I tried to picture any other candidate, or Clinton, discussing the issues with the perspective and depth of understanding that Pat has. I worry that Pat is too complex for the average dumbed down (e.g., "compassionate conservatism") voter. Nevertheless, he must fight the battle, which he is doing almost flawlessly. I am with him all the way and I appreciate what he is doing!

Dear Pat,
        Pat Run on the Reform or better yet the Libertarian Ticket. God Bless
       -- Larry Reeves - Publisher - Edgewater, NJ

Dear Linda,
        I sent this to Rush:
Rush, you make mention of the fact that Pat Buchanan had lunch with Fulani. You are worried about lunch? How about Bush actively courting La Raza - a known hate group that wants the borders torn open; opposes English as the official language of this country; wants most of the southwestern United States -- that we "stole" - returned to Mexico; and they are pushing our legislators to permit illegal aliens to vote in our elections! Maybe its time for "W" to tell us in which country he is running for president - Mexico or the USA? Why don't you have him on your show and grill him like you did Pat Buchanan, hmmmm?
       -- Chris S. Knapp - Cypress, TX

Dear Pat,
        I don't care what party you run in, I will support you no matter what you do. I have worked in the Republican Party as a professional for over 20 years and it has abandoned me, my wife, and all Americans who care about the Constitution, our national security, and the cultural integrity of America. My wife and I proudly hoist our pitchforks as members of the Buchanan Brigades. We love you Pat. Don ever give up.
       -- Thomas and Sheila De Witt - Cary, NC

Dear Pat,
        I just purchased your new book and am looking forward to some intelligent reading. I'm on the verge of renouncing my membership in the Republican Party and joining the Reform Party. I think the Country is turning a corner and is searching for new direction and meaning. Now is the time for a strong Third Party in the United States. I applaud your efforts and believe in the Cause. You've got my vote.

Dear Pat,
        Reform/Republican - You Lead, We'll Folow!
       -- Richard & Marianne Topping & Family - Whittier, CA

Dear Pat and Rush,
        I've been a diehard Republican and dittohead for ages, but after 6 years of so-called Republican rule and Rush's continued support of the status quo I'm ready to tear up my ditto card and apply for a Brigade membership. Rush, how many more dittoheads have to leave before you finally return to your roots? I remember your talks about your family and what your Dad meant to you, what America means to you. If we don't support the changes that are needed now it will be worse for our children. Pat, my first vote was for Ronald Reagan; my next vote will be for you. PS Keep the books coming. Regards,
       -- Louis Wood - Network Analyst - Tulsa, OK

Dear Pat,
        I want YOU as president...however I don't want you to leave the Republican Party if it will mean allowing Al Gore to win the Presidency. Please stay in the Party: Only leave if YOU KNOW YOU CAN WIN! I know you'll do what is right and best for our country.
       -- Raymond Hauver - Operations Manager - La Grange, NC

Dear Pat,
        I just sent in my registration to the National, as well as the State of Iowa Reform Party. My Voter Registration form that will change my affiliation from Republican to Reform Party is in the mail as of tonight. After all these years of considering myself a Republican, I figured I would feel a tremendous sense of foreboding and guilt as I dropped the form into the mailbox, but it turned out to be just the opposite. I feel great because I know I did the right thing! I can see what the Republican elites are doing to you and that is just plain wrong.

Now that I am a Reform Party member, I figured I could drop you a line just to say.......C'mon over!! WE WOULD BE GLAD TO HAVE YOU!!! American by birth.. Conservative by choice.. Populist by conviction......!
       -- Dave Doyle - Cedar Rapids, IA

Dear Pat,
        I sent this note to Rush Limbaugh:
Rush, I hoped you learned something during your interview with Pat Buchanan. It's OK. to admit when your wrong. Pat Buchanan is for real so get over it. If PJB runs I am with him. He is a true conservative who is not afraid to voice his opinions on the issues.
       -- Taylor Morton - Jackson, MS

Dear Pat,
        Hey it began a long time ago and is escalating now Pat! They are afraid of you so why not begin the demonetizations all over again. McCain has the nerve to accuse Pat Buchanan of not supporting American troops? The same McCain who was caught red-handed as one of the Keating Five? It is a sorry sight to see one of our veterans sell his soul to the "company mines"! Go get them Pat, platoons are forming now to man your Brigade.
       -- Granitgriz - Florida Brigade

Dear Pat,
        Go Reform, Pat! Go!
       -- Frank Kurtz - Catholic Priest - Dickinson, TX

Dear Brigade,
        The media is so angry with Buchanan because he is achieving recognition and success despite them! They elected Bill Clinton, they plan on electing G W Bush, Jr. and they can't imagine that we have the temerity to have thoughts not molded by them. After all, they are the all-knowing media elite of our country. God help us all if they succeed in electing another president!!
       -- Rennie Smith, Fort White, FL

Dear Pat,
        God Bless you. We can overcome all the negative press you've been getting -- we are going to win this one! Best regards,
       -- Leo Lambert - Salinas, CA

Dear Pat,
        We are with you Pat if you break from the Republican Party. You will give us a chance to make our votes count this time around. I am hoping that by the time you make the break, our company will be doing better so that we can donate more than we did last time to your efforts. Sincerely yours,
       -- Dennis and Judith Varnau - Wichita, KS

Dear Pat,
        Dont stop this time!!! Gooooo Pat Gooooooo!!!!!
       -- William White - Truck Driver - Running Springs, CA

Dear Linda,
        Sent this to Rush Limbaugh:
Dear Rush, didn't I hear that liberal left wing Democrat Chris Matthews hosting your show a couple of months ago? How come it was OK to turn over your entire show to a left-winger like Chris Matthews? Wasn't James Carville invited to your wedding and don't you claim that James Carville is a good friend of yours? I don't think any real conservative (as you call yourself) would pal around with these people. Stop bashing Buchanan for having lunch with somebody while you are turning your entire show over to a leftist like Matthews. At least when Buchanan is president he won't put the leftists in his administration as it seems you would do.
       -- Rhett W. Elder

Dear Pat,
        Good luck Pat! I like what you say and what you stand for. God Bless.
       -- Cliff Osburg - Geologist - Midland, TX

Dear Pat,
        I have been stuck in land that has only known socialism. Between huge business regulations that hurt small business, thought crime legislation and trials, to appeasement of dictators at the APEC 97 meet in Vancouver. I have always seen America, all problems included, the greatest and most free nation in the world. It is a living inspiration. When I see people like Bush, Gore, Dole and Clinton violating the Constitution it hits me hard.

I sit up here in the Socialist British Colony of Canada hoping my country someday will become a free nation with such a Constitution -- the greatest document since the Bible. Your honesty and openness is an inspiration to many. Your thoughts on freedom and liberty and the Constitution are an inspiration. Canada should be so lucky to have someone as honest as you in politics. Oh and if President Buchanan feels America needs a new state, take a look at British Columbia! Go Pat Go,
       -- Leenderdt Buday - Free-Lance Writer - Vancouver, BC - Canada

Dear Pat,
        Great book and appropriate response to Chris Matthews!
       -- Michael Bond - Danville, CA

Dear Linda,
        I first viewed Pat's Website with my brother-in-law during a recent visit. First of all I was amazed that we were interested in the same presidential candidate -- that has never happened before! I was very skeptical at first, being a lifelong Republican, I was sure I would find something I disagreed with him on. I was mainly concerned with moral issues. Economic issues are important to me, but I cannot cross moral lines. Wow, what a shock to find such a morally responsible candidate. After reading all the facts and Pat's stands on the issues I am FIRED UP!
       -- Lori Burcham - Linton, IN

Dear Pat,
        You stand for what we believe in. God bless you
       -- Edward Strell - West Seneca, NY

Dear Linda,
        Pat handled the attacks from Mr. Dershowitz beautifully. I couldn't believe some of the things Dersowitz was saying about Pat -- The hatred in Dershowitz's voice was the same kind of hatred he falsely accused Pat having. This is hypocrisy. Pat's ability to forgive Dershowitz and genuinely feel sorry for him proves that Pat actually lives Judeo-Christian values, which is much more than we can say of his enemies.
       -- Paul Korb

Dear Pat,
        I became a Republican at the age of 19 when I lost my eyesight in an auto accident and, for the first time, discovered how corrupt the welfare state is. I agree with virtually all that you stand for and I wish you great success. Good luck and God bless. Respectfully,
       -- D. Alfred Ducharme - Attorney - Arlington, VA

Dear Pat,
        Go Pat Go! My son and I went to a pep rally for you in San Diego, a few short years ago. We still feel the same way - You are a great man and would be a great American president. Therefore GO PAT GO - We love you!
       -- Marilyn Peters - San Diego, Ca

Dear Pat,
        I'll support you no matter which party you wind up representing, but it seems to me a party such as the USTP is a better fit than the Reform. Go Pat Go 2000!
       -- Scott Hiestand - Database Analyst - Ellington, CT

Dear Pat,
        You have my vote whether you run Reform or Republican. I just bought a couple copies of your new book and I read your last book - I have finally found my intellectual twin; except I admit you are quite a bit smarter than me! I am excited about your campaign and I can't wait to work myself to death for your victory!
       -- David Melton - College Student - Carrollton, GA

Dear Pat,
        Conclusion: GO-PAT-GO! America needs you at this very hour. Our Republic matters more than the Republican Party in this time of crisis.
       -- Gene Malone - Kenosha,WI

Dear Pat,
        Republicans have controlled Congress for the last 6 years so why is our Nation in worst shape today than it was 6 years ago? Exactly what crime did the residents at Camp Davidian commit. I never saw any evidence of illegal weapons. All of their weapons could have been purchased at WalMart. Pat, if you decide to run in the Reform Party I predict that many Republicans & Democrats will change to the Reform Party. GoPatGo and precede all activities and surround your self with a dedicated prayer group. Prayer changes things.
       -- James Chaney - Financial Consultant - Colorado Springs, CO

Dear Pat,
        With regard to Jesse "The Mind" Ventura's comment on political retreads, it is certainly more accurate for him to view the two major party candidates as the political retreads. They just keep on with the same tired message of bigger and more intrusive government, with a few plys of international socialism added for good measure! Pat is certainly no "retread"! As the only candidate in this race with any original ideas of his own on virtually all issues foreign and domestic, Pat would be more aptly described in the tire world as the Off Road/ All Weather/ All Terrain candidate. He'll take America where no other candidate would dare even dream to go with their slick bald politics. I'd rather ride with Pat anywhere, than follow an Elephant on a Unicycle or wait for a Donkey stranded with a flat on side of the road! Roll Pat Roll !!!!!!!!!
       -- David Jaques - Oregon Brigade

Dear Brigade,
        I think it is time for Pat to switch parties. If he switches to the Reform Party I believe many Republicans and Democrats will follow him.
       -- Bill Stapleton

Dear Linda,
        I have been active in the Republican Party since 1988 serving as Nebraska County Central Committeewoman, State Central Committeewoman and Republican National Education Committeewoman. I have been pro-life and served on legislative committees in the Republican Party where we would monitor and make recommendations on upcoming legislation in our Unicameral. The party elite would always cannibalize any effort that was pro-life or conservative and demonize any effort made in that direction. They have successfully shut down the party and now have only a 'virtual reality' grass roots organization. I pray for the Republican Party, but they have left us high and dry. I am waiting for orders from headquarters. GO PAT GO!!!
       -- Teresa Damasauskas - Nebraska Brigade

Dear Pat,
        I voted for you when you ran in the last election. We really need you to run our country and I pray you get into office. I am a military citizen serving in California but a resident of Pennsylvania. I see our freedoms being taken away piece by piece and the liberal Democrats and weak Republicans are to blame. I agree with you on all of your issues especially the Second Amendment. God be with you, Sir.

Dear Pat,
        I believe in what you are doing and will try to help with on going support. Power to the people - In God We Trust!
