There are people that want use to endorse or oppose candidates. It will not happen. You need to do your own research and decide which candidate is fiscally responsible, believes in a limited government, free markets and has respect for the Constitution and Bill of Rights and will answer to the people.
The reason we will not endorse a candidate is simple. Once we endorse a candidate, they don't need us anymore. What if that candidate changes what they promised us for our endorsement? We are stuck with that person and their decisions. It's not worth the risk to our reputation as being non-partisan.
When candidates ask for our endorsement, we tell them that we expect them to endorse the Tea Party Patriots and our mission statement. If you want to endorse any candidate, you are entitled to due so as every citizen has the right to do.
The Board of Directors of your Tea Party Patriots encourages you to use your most sacred right as a citizen of the great nation. Be sure to vote!

There is an important event coming up on September 12th. It's our Sacramento Tea Party Patriots Rally. Last year it was held at our state capitol. This year it will be held at the McClellan Business Park. One of the reasons it's going to be held there is that this is a multiple state event that includes California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada and Arizona. This location can handle the very large crowds that we expect. They also have a hotel on the site and plenty of $5 parking. See details in the flyer at the end of this newsletter.
We have also ordered busses for our Nevada County people to take you there and back. If you are interested in taking a bus, please email us at elaine@mecklermail.com Send us your name, number of tickets you wish to order, and your phone number. The cost for round-trip tickets will be $20. More information on the busses will follow.

Remember, this is your organization. Your contributions in time and money are what keep us strong and growing, and we need both. If you can volunteer a couple of hours a week, it helps a lot. If you can contribute any amount of money, that helps us put on these great events and pays for the literature that we hand out, and advertising. Send your checks to NCTPP at 2036 Nevada City Highway, #216, Grass Valley, CA, 95945.

Your comments and suggestions are always welcome. We encourage you to write a Letter to the Editor of The Union. They are a very powerful tool in our fight to bring back a Constitutional government.
