Barnstorm for Breazeale and the Fair Tax

Wilmington, NC – On Income Tax Day, April 15th, local Congressional Candidate and pilot Will Breazeale is highlighting his drive to end the IRS and the Income Tax in favor of the Fair Tax. He will fly to an airport in each of the 10 counties that make up the 7th Congressional District, culminating is a rally at the Air Wilmington facility at the Wilmington Airport.

The Fair Tax is a plan to abolish the Federal Income Tax on individuals and businesses and replace it with a federal retail sales tax and credits to individuals that effectively eliminate the new tax on the amount spent on basic necessities of life. The plan would reduce drastically the
compliance costs for businesses, bring the underground economy into the tax-paying realm.

Breazeale’s web site, aWILLtoWIN.com features a link to a Fair Tax calculator that allows people to see how they personally would be affected by the change. Will Breazeale and other Fair Tax proponents seek to make April 15th just another early spring day, not the dreaded tax
deadline it is today.

The schedule of the airport rallies is:

  • 8:00 am Elizabethtown Airport (Bladen County)

  • 9:00 am Fayetteville Airport (Cumberland County)

  • 10:00 am Laurinburg Airport (Scotland County)

  • 11:00 am Lumberton Airport (Robeson County)

  • 12:00 noon Whiteville Airport (Columbus County)

  • 1:00 pm Clinton Airport (Sampson County)

  • 3:00 pm Kenansville Airport (Duplin County)

  • 4:00 pm Wallace Airport (Pender County)

  • 5:00 pm Brunswick County Airport (Brunswick County)

  • 6:00 pm Wilmington Airport (New Hanover County)

Hello from the front lines of politics!

I have big news for the upcoming week! This Thursday, April 3rd at 3:15pm, I am holding a press conference at the Fayetteville Airport to welcome my Iraqi interpreter from Northern Iraq: Bangian Aldosakee, known as “Benny” to those of us in the coalition forces. Benny served as my interpreter in all sort of combat situations for a year while I was advising the Iraqi Army from 2006-2007. He is brave, talented, and loves America. Benny has recently legally immigrated to New York State and is coming to Southeast N.C. to campaign with me as my special guest. Benny will be here April 3rd thru the 18th and will make many appearances all over our Congressional District. I hope all of you can be at our press conference and welcome celebration for Benny on April 3rd! If you have an organization that you would like Benny to speak to, please call our scheduler at 910-409-7023. This may be the only chance in your life to meet an Iraqi Citizen visiting in our area with such a great story to tell!

What a great week I have had. I was honored by the presence of Representatives John Linder (R-GA) and Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA) at a house party fundraiser for my campaign last Friday night in Newnan, GA. The fundraiser was attended by pilots, managers and corporate officers of Airtran Airways in financial and moral support of our campaign. Rep. Linder, who also happens to be a fellow FairTax supporter, made a great point to the crowd: Mike McIntyre, our Democrat competition, is a nice guy, but his votes in Congress are NOT in keeping with the conservative values McIntyre claims to represent. Rep. Linder also made a point that if you value me bearing your burdens as a candidate campaigning 80 hours per week in order to represent you in Congress in the way you should be represented, then show you support by "writing a check!" I could not agree more. Today is the last day to give before our quarterly report deadline. Please take your credit card out and donate on our website.

This past week also found me on stage with Sen. Fred Smith and Lee Greenwood in Fayetteville. That followed an event for our campaign at the Fayetteville North Regional Library. Most of my supporters also left after our event to attend the Smith event. A very good evening!

Thursday night I was honored to speak at a fundraiser event for South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham in Spartanburg, SC.

Tuesday night saw me meeting with a group of students at the UNCW campus in Wilmington. What a great bunch of young people, all taking an active interest in politics!

Wednesday started off with a long visit on the Curtis Wright show on The Big Talker FM. Callers had several interesting questions – particularly one about what I would actually do in Washington, was I all talk about what was wrong or would I follow through with positive action. I answered that, as one of 435 members of the House I would promise to take a positive, conservative stand against increased taxes and pork barrel spending. That I would work with other like minded members of Congress and NC state officials to convince a majority to vote with us on the important issues. I am already building those “bridges” now with my contacts during the campaign with people like Representatives Linder and Westmoreland, Senators Elizabeth Dole, Richard Burr and Lindsey Graham, NC Representatives Foxx, Hayes, Myrick, and McHenry, Senator Fred Smith and Charlotte Mayor Pat McCrory. By building this network now and by growing it between now and November, when I am sworn in next January as the new Congressman from the 7th District of North Carolina I will be off and running and ready to make a positive difference.

The District 7 Convention is this coming Saturday, April 5th in Bolivia. I hope to see all of you there as we confidently stride toward winning this race!!!!

Thanks


Will

PS: This battle cannot be won without your support. We are recruiting volunteers to fill out our Army’s “duty roster” but we need more and they need “materiel.” Go to aWILLtoWIN.com and sign up as a “Recruit” to become an official part of our Army and also make a generous donation to buy the “weapons” those recruits need.

Hello all!


This week will be a key one in our campaign to elect me as your next Congressman. Below are the events I will be attending this week:

Tonight I will be at UNC-Wilmington at 7:00 pm.

  • Tuesday morning at 8:00 am I will be appearing on the Curtis Wright show at the Big Talker FM in Wilmington (96.7 and 103.7 FM).

  • Also on Tuesday after our event in Fayetteville, I will participate in Lee Greenwood's concert for the Fred Smith for Governor campaign at Methodist University. (For more details see the paragraph below).

  • Tuesday evening at 5:30 pm we are holding a fundraiser in Fayetteville with fans of my endorsement of the FairTax.

  • Friday we’ll be having a huge event in Newnan, GA, near Atlanta, organized by my fellow pilots at AirTran Airways in which will Congressmen Linder and Westmoreland, both Republicans from Georgia will be speakers.

  • Saturday morning I'll be campaigning at the Planter's Day festival in White Oak, NC in Bladen County.

  • Then at 4:00 pm. I will be giving a speech at the Politician's Appreciation Day in Elizabethtown.

I will be making a special announcement with Fred Smith and Lee Greenwood just before honoring our veterans with Lee's "God Bless the USA." Anyone attending our fundraiser, which begins at 5:30 pm, right before the Lee Greenwood concert are invited to Fred's fundraiser concert where they will have special reserved seating (Fred's campaign is asking for a $25, per person, donation to his campaign). What an exciting night!!!!


We are welcoming George Bell as our County Coordinator of Brunswick County. George currently serves as a Precinct Chairman in Brunswick County for the Republican Party as well. He and his family are dedicated Republicans ready to help us win Brunswick County in Nov 08! His email address is brunswick@breazeale08.com. Contact him if you live in Brunswick County to become part of our organization. Please contact Rob Boyce, my Campaign Manager, if you live in any other county and would like to volunteer! We will have some special perks for our County Coordinators so sign up now!

Mcintyre's flip-flops continue....McIntyre supported the Iraq War resolution to attack Iraq in 2002. Last year, he voted with his leader, Nancy Pelosi, the very liberal Speaker of the House – his first vote in 2007 was to elect her speaker! - to immediately withdraw all troops from Iraq no later than April 2008. Now, McIntyre says the soldiers need to stay until Iraq's government is strong enough to run their own country. The people of District 7 deserve a Congressman who shows leadership, not one who changes his position like a weather vane in a hurricane! On November 4th the voters will show Mike McIntyre that they want this Veteran -- and not a trial lawyer -- representing them in Congress!

Keep the House Party requests coming!!!!

Take care




Will

PS - When Sen. Elizabeth Dole was head of the Red Cross she says she asked people for only three things: their time as volunteers; their money – as donations; and their blood! Well, I am not asking for your blood! but I need your time and your money! Go to aWILLtoWIN.com today to sign up!

Newsletter 1-28







Hello all!

As a soldier in the Army Reserve, there comes a pride in our role protecting America. We must stay in shape and pass our physical fitness test every 6 months. If you are curious, go to www.apft.net and take a look at our standards. Can you pass the test? As I go running every morning by the homes of my neighborhood in White Lake, NC, I take pride in my decision to serve America in 1986, joining ROTC in college. In only 2 years I can retire from my part-time Army Reserve job. Many of you have asked what I would do once elected as your Congressman if the Army decides to deploy me back to Iraq or even elsewhere. Certainly I would go with my unit and NOT expect special treatment. Leaders lead from the front, not from their office.

We are still focusing on fundraising and it is paying off, but there is still a long road ahead. We have scheduled house parties, furthered our plans to bring nationally known figures to support our campaign. We are very close to a arrangement for me to appear on national TV and Radio as the most experienced Iraq War Veteran running for Congress.

Like most people I’ve been following the Presidential campaigning through the early primary states since one of these gentlemen will be our next President. Having them all right next door to the district for the South Carolina primary gave my campaign staff and I a chance to see up close and personal how these campaigns operate. We were impressed by what we saw. The strategy of Mitt Romney’s campaign particularly impressed us. While the other campaigns have hop scotched across the country picking some states where they expected to do well and ignoring others, Romney has been campaigning in them all. He won Wyoming and Michigan while doing well in several others, sort of a Tortoise and Hare strategy. Our campaign is doing the same thing – we have already campaigned in all 10 counties that make up the district, we are not counting on a just a couple of areas to pull us through. I will be the Congressmen from the entire district and intend to win the hearts and minds of all the citizens who live here.

I will be a guest on the Big Talker, 93.7 / 106.3 FM in Wilmington this Friday morning (1 Feb) at 8:30 am. Curtis Wright, the show's host, is broadcasting live from The Dawson Street Urgent Care, 608 DAWSON STREET, Wilmington, NC. Our discussion will focus solely on healthcare. I have spent time talking with poor uninsured people as well as hospital administrators in the district. Most of my family is in healthcare as well as many of my close friends. My brother is a MD, my mother is a BSN, my step mother is a PHD of Nursing and my sister in law is a Nurse Practitioner. What I know is - There IS an answer to every problem if we work together, but Hillary Care is not it. Please listen to the show then join me afterwards at the Cracker Barrel restaurant at College and Market in Wilmington for a round table discussion and meet and greet:
Cracker Barrel
21 Van Campen Blvd.
Wilmington, NC 28403
(910) 794-1162
(Behind Carrabas)

I will be there from 10-11 am in the back corner of the restaurant. Come by and tell me what is on your mind. Take care!




Will
PS: We are gearing up for the battle ahead and need to recruit troops and equip them for battle. You can help by sending this on to several friends, calling friends and telling them about the campaign and me, letting your co-workers know what is going on. You can also help us with a donation or asking others to donate. A $100 donation today will buy about 50 yard signs or pay one month’s utilities on one of the offices we will be setting up or buy pizza for volunteers making phone calls. A team effort requires a large well equipped team. We need you!
