Dear Fellow RNC Members,
I know you are being flooded with information about the upcoming Chairman’s race, so I’m keeping this letter short.
The decision that you and I will make in January will have major implications for the future of our party and our country.
All of the candidates who are running are good people and in a normal election cycle would be fine choices. But in this critical climate, we must seek out the candidate with unique abilities and exceptional experience.
We must ask ourselves crucial questions:
Who can best communicate the effectiveness of our Republican policies?
Who has a proven ability to adapt to new technologies?
Who knows what it takes to be a successful candidate and to coordinate a successful campaign?
Have any previously spearheaded a nationwide redistricting effort?
Have they signed the front of a paycheck, managed staff and made tough budget decisions?
Whose life story exemplifies the American dream and inspires others to follow him?
Which ones will stand firm on key Republican principles - no matter what?
Can you know, beyond a shadow of doubt, that they will always conduct themselves with the utmost integrity, honor and humility?
I firmly believe Ken Blackwell best fits this description.
Even though he has been a fixture in the conservative movement for decades - he’s the kind of guy who always puts the cause out front and never tries to seize the spotlight for himself.
If you read Ken’s biography, you will be as impressed as I am. You can find it at http://kenblackwell.com/biography.
Ken raised over 12 million dollars for his gubernatorial race. As State Treasurer, he managed billions of dollars in investments and oversaw a large staff.
You probably know that he’s a self-made man with experience in real estate development and investing and owns part of a Major League Baseball team. But did you know that he grew up poor and in government housing?
I hope you’ll take a few minutes and thoroughly read through his biography. He’s led a remarkable life and has an amazing story to tell - one that makes him uniquely qualified to lead our party at this critical juncture.
Will you join me in supporting Ken Blackwell for Chairman of the Republican National Committee? I firmly believe this critical decision will affect our party and our country for decades - and Ken Blackwell is the right choice!
Your friend,
Mark Hillman
National Committeeman, Colorado
