Dear Pat,
        I have been a Republican since the 1952 election of Dwight Eisenhower. If you are a nominee of the Reform Party, Pat, I will vote for you. God bless America!

Dear Linda,
        As a Canadian political observer, the choice facing Pat is of great interest to me. We also have a Reform Party in Canada, which has managed to rise to second place as Official Opposition in our Parliament... Grassroots truth, belief in one's faith and common sense are the only effective tools needed to forge a new conservatism so sorely needed in North America. Keep up the fight Pat, the world needs you every bit as much as the USA does!
      -- George Clark, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Dear Linda,
        The only one talking about China's killing of Christians & Jews is Pat B. The only one on the front line on Abortion is Pat B. The only one pounding his fist on the bully pulpit against "Christian Bigotry" is Pat B! The bible clearly states "You shall know them by their fruits" and these other candidates' fruit is rotten! As an Hispanic Leader I will follow Pat B as long as he follows Jesus and what the Bible stands for!!!! - PS - I have been working for Pat B on the front lines here in Connecticut.

Dear Linda,
        I want to add my voice with all my fellow Brigaders who are inspired and invigorated by Pat's new book, "A Republic, Not An Empire." Pat knows the history of our country, our foreign policy, and what direction we Americans should take in the 21st century, better than any scholar I have studied --- and certainly more than George W. Bush, Sen. McCain, Elizabeth Dole and other feeble-minded politicians (and pundits) who are now maliciously lambasting him in the media...

Most importantly, I am thankful that Pat has once again brought me full circle in realizing how important it is to put "America First." I only wish Pat's book could be required reading for all college students now studying international affairs and foreign policy --- from George Washington and Georgetown, to Harvard and Yale. There desperately needs to be a real intellectual revolution today on college campuses which culminates in one patriotic slogan: "Go, Pat, go!" Best regards,
      -- Scott Lauf - Ashburn, VA

Dear Linda,
        I think it's sad and pathetic that the Republicans are out to destroy Pat for their own political gains. I have read Pats book and anyone with a brain would realize that Pat is not anti-Semitic -- as these paranoid critics suggest. The Republicans have sold out on America. They no longer care about the average American. Its time for reform and Pat, your it.

Pat, continue your fight and pursuit for the Presidency for those of us real Americans who believe in you. Go Pat Go!
      -- Scott - Phoenix, AZ

Dear Pat,
        I am contributing to you're campaign from the "conservative Christian" perspective. For what it's worth I'm a born & raised Roman Catholic, an alter-boy, have a priest as an uncle, have a Papal blessing bestowed upon our marriage, & have come to know Jesus Christ as my Savior in 1982. God bless you Pat!

Dear Pat,
        Buchanan Reform 2000!! Pat, let the media call you what they want to, I'll simply call you Mr. President! Go Pat Go!!!

Dear Linda,
        Regarding your request to check out local book stores availability of A Republic not an Empire, I visited Border's Book Store, in Ft. Worth, and found it available for my purchase.
      -- Jeanne Doogs - Chair, Reform Party of Texas - Ft. Worth, TX

Dear Linda,
        I heard Rush Limbaugh on the Paula Zahn show on the Fox News Monday night. He repeated his charge that Pat is not a conservative because he wants to "enlarge" the powers of the Federal Government by regulating trade. Yet, Article I.8.3 of the Constitution clearly states that the Federal Government has to power "to regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states..."

This clearly shows Limbaugh is conducting a smear campaign against Pat. Since it clearly states that one of the legitimate powers of the Federal Government is regulating trade, there is nothing inconsistent with a conservative supporting tariffs and other measures regulating commerce. I won't go into how NAFTA and GATT (Both of which Limbaugh supports) actually expands the powers of the Federal Government. It is this type of dishonesty by the Republican establishment that is alienating millions of Americans and building support for a new party.
      -- Bob Blumetti - Yonkers, NY

Dear Brigade,
        Pat is the only presidential candidate with self-respect. He has the integrity and fire to be a real leader -- not just for America, but for what remains of the "Free World".
      -- Matthew O'Connor - Stockbroker - Carmel, NY

Dear Pat,
        I think the reform party is your best chance. Don't worry about leaving the Republican Party. I think you're right about them being Xerox copies of each other. The only thing they're different on are minor things which corporate America allows them to quibble about to make it seem like we have two different parties. Discussion about trade policy, immigration (illegal and legal), and MFN status for China are matters that are more of a threat to international globalism. Go Pat Go!
      -- Logan Thomas - Truck Driver - Eureka, CA

Dear Linda,
        What we have in this country is one party with two left wings. Among the Republicans and Democrats a true conservative party will arise and give the average American man and woman a voice in their government. Pat Buchanan represents that voice on the campaign trail as he runs a race based upon the twin virtues of honesty and decency. We have not seen a political explosion of this sort since the rise of Ronald Wilson Reagan. Though the Gipper may have passed into old age, one can sense his spirit in the attempt by our own PJB to reclaim America's lost virtue.

Take care and God Bless and, as my little boy is fond of saying, "All the way with Patrick J." !!

Dear Pat,
        Go Pat Go!

Dear Pat,
        The propaganda out there isn't working on all of us, so keep the faith Mr. Buchanan! A Fellow Patriot,
      -- Finnian Cornelison - Computer Technician - Herndon, VA

Dear Pat,
        I can't express how proud I was of Mr. McLaughlin this past week on his show. He defended your book and defended you. He deserves credit for being truly objective and respectful…. I hope that all the vicious attacks on you wake up the silent majority of Republicans to what has happened to the GOP - this is no longer Reagan's Party. You are the only man that can make things right and you are the only man that will ever get the support of the American Working Class and the Economic Nationalists. Damn the torpedoes - full steam ahead...GO PAT GO!
      -- David T. Melton - College Student - Carrollton, GA

Dear Linda,
        You have done such a great job on Pat's web site I just had to drop a quick line to say thanks for all your efforts towards the cause. Your web site blows the others out of the water!
      -- Scott A. Hanifan - Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA

Dear Pat,
        We appreciate that you have the courage to stand up for what is right. Of course you will be maligned for doing so, however you are the first to do so with credibility. Run the race Pat, the prize is attainable. May God Bless and keep you and your family!!!
      -- Rainier Gund - Business Owner - Las Vegas, NV

Dear Linda,
        Love all your efforts… I am a member of the Reform Party of New Jersey and I am ready to work my tail off to secure Pat the nomination in our party if he wants it. God bless America and God bless you all, and tell Shelley and Bay they are real troopers! Hang in there!
      -- Thomas J. Miller - South Amboy N.J.

Dear Pat,
        We very badly need a highly qualified candidate, such as you, to run for president under the Reform Party. Our government under the Democrats and Republicans has become increasingly corrupt. In an effort to patronize special interest groups in our society these two parties have made a mockery of our laws. We badly need a third voice under a new party structure.
      -- Anthony Malgieri - Engineer - Denver, CO

Dear Linda,
        You are doing a great job with Pat's web page. I read it several times each day. There is a time and a place for everything - this is the time and the place is the Reform Party. The Republican Party of President Reagan does not exist anymore. Why continue to support a party that wants to take away our sovereignty.

I'm a soldier in the United States Army and I took an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. I'm willing to put my life on the line for the same reasons my grandfather and uncles did it in WW II -- I am an American. Pat, don't allow America's sovereignty to be stripped away. You are the man whom God has put in this position. You have no chioce but to make it happen. You have my support. God bless you.
      -- Eddie McCain - U.S. Army - Leesville, LA

Dear Linda,
        I was surprised to see how conservative media people jumped on the liberal bandwagon by distorting Pat's comments on W.W.II. Conservative media pundits including Rush Limbaugh and others missed the mark by going off subject and focusing on the negative outcomes of WW II instead of the decades of events leading up to the war itself.     Conservatives have always criticized liberals for trying to eliminate negative consequences of bad decisions through government policy without looking at the root cause. However, in Pat's case they joined the liberals. The issue is not about what ultimately happened but what caused it and what could have been done to possibly prevent it…

We, the loyal brigade members need to realize the ploys the media uses to twist Pat's words to discredit him. We shouldn't be afraid of what the media is saying about Pat's statements. Animals attack when they feel threatened and the Establishment knows they're threatened. Go Pat Go!!
      -- Art Costigan

Dear Linda,
        Here's a letter I sent to National Public Radio:
Dear NPR: Because of your narrow, one sided, bigoted and completely lame coverage of Pat Buchanan by Melinda Penkava on Sept 27, 1999, I will now actively support cutting all tax dollar funding of your broadcast. You have shown yourself to be an enemy of the Truth. Thanks a lot.
      -- Tim Blunt - Grover Beach, CA

Dear Brigade,
        Teddy Roosevelt on PJB:
"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Theodore Roosevelt - "Citizenship in a Republic," Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910 Go Pat Go...but go with GOP!

Dear Brigade,
        Rally round the flag boys and girls! Bush, Gore, Dole, Forbes, Bradley, et al are rallying around the flag but it's the wrong flag. Their flag belongs to 'a global authority' that will destroy the sovereignty of the U.S.

The only candidate who is rallying around our flag is Pat Buchanan. While you may agree or disagree with the abortion issue, abortion has nothing to do with assuring our sovereignty. If you want to place AMERICA FIRST, support Pat Buchanan. Patriots place country before commerce, traitors place commerce before country. GO PAT GOOOOOO!!!
