Please help us defeat U.S. Senator Kent Conrad in North
Dakota.

The Gun Owners of America have given him a grade of F -
meaning he is an Anti-Gun Voter: a philosophically
committed anti-gunner. (per the ratings available at http://www.gunowners.org) Also, the nation's leading gun
control lobby - Handgun Control, Inc. - identifies the
votes which they consider as "important" to their cause.
When looking at these votes, Senator Kent Conrad voted with
THEIR position 100% of the time!

Duane Sand is the Republican nominee for the U.S. Senate.
Duane fully supports the 2nd Amendment and would back his
personal beliefs up with each vote in the Senate.

Our campaign has enough money for just over one week of
saturation media in North Dakota between now and the
election. We need to raise more $$ so we can put Senator
Conrad's voting record before the people. As you can
imagine, North Dakota is NOT comprised of many people that
are vehemently anti-gun. Would you want to be the person
walking into a town in that state and telling people "Give
me all your guns?" :)

However, Senator Conrad never talks about those votes when
he goes back to the state - he focuses on how much $$
[pork] he's brought back to them. At his campaign web
site, http://www.kent-conrad.com, he has an "issues" page -
conspicuously missing are any statements regarding gun
control/2nd amendment, his position on the
abortion/pro-life issue, etc.

If you, or ANYONE else in your circle of pro-2nd Amendment
contacts, would be willing to send even $25 to Duane's
campaign, it will go a long way in North Dakota.

You may review Duane's positions on the issues at the SFS
web site, www.sandforsenate.com, as well as read his
biography and other background information.

Please help get out the word to anyone that may be
interested in providing financial support to Duane's
campaign. As you'll see by the polling information below,
the North Dakota voters have a large misconception of
Conrad's actual voting record. He is *NOT* conservative!

The latest Portrait of America poll continues to reveal an
"ignorance" among North Dakota voters about Senator Conrads
motives. (The information I refer to may be found at http://portraitofamerica.com/html/poll-1236.html)

Some interesting conclusions from this poll:

-- Bush leads Gore by 17 points (48 to 31) but Conrad
continues to lead Sand in the polls

-- Over 50% (53 to be specific) referred to themselves as
"very" or "somewhat" conservative and ONLY 12% placed
themselves in the somewhat/very liberal categories (with 3%
undecided)

-- They (the ND poll respondents) have a vast ignorance of
Conrad's voting record with 27% placing him in a
"conservative" category which ties with those that labeled
him a "liberal" and only 8% as "Not sure" (i.e. over
one-third of the ND voters are not aware, or do not
recognize, Senator Conrad's far-left & liberal voting
record - these people would NOT vote for him if they saw
his true colors.)

-- One-fourth responded as "Not sure" as to whether Duane
was liberal or conservative and less than 50% placed him in
the conservative cateogory! (This is a direct result of
limited funding - we need to get the word out. A
conservative population can't vote for a conservative
candidate if they don't know he is! It takes $$ to share
Duane's vision with the ND electorate.)

Our state has the most inexpensive media markets in America
and only 633,000 residents to reach out and touch.

For example, a $250 contribution buys forty 30-second radio
station spots in North Dakota.

You may find information on how to contribute at the SFS
web site - www.sandforsenate.com - we are set up to collect
contributions online via credit card. Information is also
available for contributing via check or money order.

You may already know who Senator Kent Conrad is, but I
would like to hilight some of the ratings put forth by
various conservative organizations: (either letter grades
or on a scale of 1 to 100)

American Conservative Union: 16
Americans for Tax Reform: 10
Christian Coalition: 30
Conservative Index: 23
English First: D
Gun Owners of America: 9 (F)
National Right To Life: 25
National Taxpayers Union: F
NFIB (National Federation of Independent Businesses): 33

As a reminder, Senator Conrad has voted WITH the position
of Handgun Control, Inc. on 100% of the votes they cared
about!

Thanks for any consideration you may give to the Sand for
Senate Campaign.

P.S. - Even if you or your organization are not able to
directly support our campaign, please keep Duane's
information handy and provide it to individuals whom may be
interested in seeing North Dakota put this senate seat on
the GOP side of the fence -AND- out of the hands of the gun
control lobby!
