	Took a look. This is a good way to go about things. If you can get the
numbers you have a good chance of achieving your goals.

	In my case (since you responded to my message), I doubt I'd be able to do
more than offer you moral support. I'm not an American. Although I qualify
for at least one form of work visa, you need people who are actually able
to vote. I am pretty sure the rules exclude foreign nationals such as
myself from voting in any elections. I'm perfectly happy being Canadian
and (unlike my brother) see no reason to change citizenship.

	A lot of your goals have a lot in common with Libertarianism and
Neo-Anarchy. As I see it, there are differences in the amount of
organization and world view. Apart from that the goals of the two groups
seem compatible. If you can pull it off with a single election you'll have
a chance to prove yourselves to everybody else.

	Good luck...
