Powell < Date: Mon, 6 Nov 2000 02:22:18 -0800 (PST) < < Dear Kathy Bass, < < < In the life of nations, great turning points and < pivotal elections are not always obvious at the < time. Circumstances change, politics is full of < surprises, history is unpredictable. But for many < reasons, November 7, 2000 stands out with unusual < clarity as a moment of decision. I am voting for < our Republican team, and I urge you to do so as < well. < < We have offered a positive vision of hope, < opportunity and common sense reform. We have < forthrightly addressed the big issues: education, < Social Security, access to quality health care for < all Americans, tax relief, and a strong national < defense. < < Our team has not flinched from tough choices. < < We have campaigned in a spirit of good faith, < inclusiveness, and optimism. Our candidates have < earned our enthusiastic support. < < We must, however, guard against apathy. Please be < sure you, your family, and your friends and < neighbors get out and vote. < < For a variety of reasons too numerous to discuss < here, voter turnout in the United States in recent < decades has been low and is declining. In fact, it < is likely that barely half of the eligible voters < will make the effort to get to the polls on November < 7. I ask you to make a special effort to be among < them. Don't think for a moment it doesn't matter. < It does matter and you have an obligation to vote. < < We have an extraordinary opportunity on November 7. < The Cold War is over, but we need coherent and < principled leadership for a rapidly changing world, < and a military ready to deter war if possible and < win decisively if necessary. We are committed to < these principles. < < At home, the economy is strong and the budget is < balanced. A growing surplus provides the means to < both cut taxes and finance important reforms. On < education, Social Security and health care, our < Republican team is right and our opposition is < wrong. < < On the social issues that have divided our nation < for so long, we are committed to forge a bi-partisan < approach to solving America's problems. We are < committed to a future that leaves no one behind. We < believe individual liberty is rooted in personal < responsibility. < < The moral dimension of leadership respects the moral < and religious foundations of our Republic. We trust < the American people to manage their own lives. < < For all these reasons, it is important for each and < every one of us to vote on November 7. We have as < clear a choice as America has faced in at least a < generation. Your vote does count. Please join me < in helping elect our Republican team. Thank you. < < Sincerely, < < Colin L.
