Imagine… a 3200-foot-long blimp -- FOUR TIMES the length of the legendary HINDENBURG -- floating across America!

Then… across the Atlantic Ocean, to Europe!

And from there… around the entire globe! Twice!

Well, here it is:

But we need YOUR DONATION RIGHT NOW to get The Advocates Blimp off the ground!

………………………………..

Okay. I’m just kidding.

We’re not really doing the blimp. Sorry. (It DOES sound like fun, though, doesn’t it!)

But… we ARE taking the message of liberty across America and around the world!

And we DO URGENTLY NEED your help right now, to keep that vital, world-changing work going!

Please consider:

• Every single day – 24 hours per day – thousands of people from around the world take the World’s Smallest Political Quiz online and discover the ideas of liberty. MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ENCOUNTER THE QUIZ EVERY YEAR! (That's a lot more than we could ever reach with a blimp!)
   
• The Quiz is in the online supplementary material of a DOZEN TEXTBOOKS! Yes, thanks to the Advocates, LIBERTARIANISM IS IN THE CLASSROOMS for thousands of students!
   
• Thousands of people every month visit our Libertarianism.com site, to learn about the ideas of liberty in a friendly, fun, bite-size manner from some of the brightest libertarian minds on the planet.
   
• Then there’s OPH, our renowned "Libertarian Celebrities” outreach page, our seminars, books, audio and video learning material...

And all that is just a small part of what we do. As a reader of the Liberator Online – world’s largest-circulation libertarian newsletter – you’re probably familiar with a lot more.

This is vital, essential work that is bringing liberty to the world.

We've discovered, taught, equipped and trained an "army" of active and committed libertarians -- including untold thousands who went on to support every presidential candidate in U.S. history who has had a
blimp!

I know this is a campaign year. And there are many worthy causes asking for your dollars.

But the Advocates needs your support, too, if we are to continue our essential work.

Ironically, campaign years are times when the demand for our services -- from activists, candidates, and the general public -- is at a peak… but donations drop.

HOW ABOUT… A “MONEY FIRECRACKER”?

We’ve been awestruck at some of the “money bombs” we’ve seen lately on the Web. What a commitment to liberty those show!

We aren’t asking for a money bomb of that size and sacrifice.

But we could sure use a “Money Firecracker” right now!

Times are tight. This time of year is always a difficult one for us. Plus, many people are concerned about the economy. We're feeling the pinch from all that. Donations are down.

We really need your donation, right now. Large or small. Can you help us?

REMEMBER: The Advocates is finding and training the libertarian activists of today and tomorrow. Turning them into full-fledged libertarians. Improving their communication skills. Plugging them into the liberty movement. Helping them, in turn, reach out and find OTHER libertarian-leaning folks, to bring to our side.

No one else is doing this essential work.

David Bergland, author of Libertarianism In One Lesson and 1984 Libertarian presidential candidate, said:

“Every libertarian activist has benefited from, and owes a debt of gratitude to, the Advocates. The Advocates leads the way in thinking, methods, and materials for communicating libertarianism to a world that most definitely
needs it.”

A CANDIDATE WHO REALLY HAD A BLIMP SPEAKS

Here are a few words from a presidential candidate who really DID have a blimp:

"The Advocates makes invaluable contributions to the freedom cause. For twenty years the Advocates has worked tirelessly to help libertarians better communicate the ideas of liberty. I continue to be impressed by the Advocates' work." -- Ron Paul.

Can you please help us keep our work going and growing? We run a lean and tight organization. Every penny you give us will be valued, and used to advance liberty.

Donations small and large are welcome -- and urgently needed -- RIGHT NOW.

And we have some great gifts for you as a “thank-you” for your help at this time when it is very much needed. Those gifts include a great book written by... you guessed it!... a candidate who really had a blimp!

You can use your credit card with confidence online -- our donation page is 100% secure.

If you prefer, you can use PAYPAL for your donation.

OR, call us toll-free at 1-800-932-1776.

Thank you SO MUCH for your confidence in the Advocates and your dedication to the glorious cause of liberty!

P.S. If we receive over $300,000 from this request, maybe we'll really consider a blimp! But seriously, every donation -- large and small -- will be GREATLY appreciated.

Please make your tax-deductible donation NOW, securely online,  through PayPal, or by phone at 1-800-932-1776.

P.P.S. We need 100 people to come forward as $15-per-month donors. Will you be one? You will be a TRUE HERO to us, and we will happily send you ALL our great thank-you gifts.
