KeepAndBearArms.com is going to run a full page
ad in USA Today before the Presidential election. How would you like to help
design the ad?
If you could speak to millions of Americans one
simple message through the largest newspaper circulation in North America on the
gun issue, what would YOU say? How would you present it?
There are so many talented people in this
nation who love the dream of American Liberty and hunger to put a Constitutional
Republic back into existence. Who will come up with the best ad to place
in USA Today? You? Someone you know?
Here is your chance to help develop a message
to millions of people. Please begin by helping us deal with the extra flood of
emails by following the instructions below precisely as requested. We're
choosing to be efficient as we take on one more task, and your assistance to
that end is greatly appreciated. The detailed and clear submission requirements
are a necessity:
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES -- Due by
September 30th
- The ad must fit on an 8 1/2 X 11 sheet of
paper and be spacious. A lengthy, cluttered look is less likely to be read
in this soundbite-programmed society.
- ONLY complete, polished ads or one-liner
ideas will be accepted. Please do not send us a novel on the concept
of advertising. If you submit one line ideas, such as, "Requiring a
woman to submit to rape is in itself an act of brutality", they will be
considered as a part of the total ad. 79 paragraphs venting about the woes
of the current media bias will be considered as an article for publication
(if the writing is polished, edited, and ready for publication), but will
not even get read as a part of THIS project.
- If your ad has graphics in it, please make
sure they print out well in black and white. USA Today charges an arm, a leg
and your two front teeth for ads as it is; color doubles the cost,
so we're going black and white.
- The ad must contain KeepAndBearArms.com, Gun
Owners Home Page prominently in the lower half of the ad and preferably at
the bottom. This ad is about the message, but we want people to know where
to find more information. We're also exploring what other groups to support
with this ad, as well, and will likely use the space to help a few other
groups who couldn't come up with this kind of cash on their own.
HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR AD
We will receive submissions only at one email
address: USAToday@KeepAndBearArms.com.
The below instructions are to save us time and assure that your submission
ideas/ads are considered, so PAY ATTENTION, PLEASE. :-)
- Acceptable formats for ads are: MS Word
(.doc), Adobe Acrobat (.pdf), html, Adobe Photoshop for a PC (.psd), or as text in an email. Only black
and white images or those which print WELL in black and white will be
considered.
- If you or the person you know who is
creating the ad is accustomed to using a different program we don't use, we
will have to see the ad printed and it will thus need to be mailed to:
KeepAndBearArms.com 3116 E. Shea Blvd., Box 197 Phoenix, AZ
85028. If you choose this route, please stick a $3.20 priority mail
stamp on it and include your email address, your phone number, and the type
of program you used to create the ad.
- If you are sending a completed ad or the
recommended text for a completed ad, please use the email subject of KABA
COMPLETED AD. If you are sending a one-liner you'd like to see used,
please use the email subject of KABA AD BULLET ITEM.
All ads submitted will also be made available
to KeepAndBearArms.com members and site visitors to download, print out and hand
out to their friends, at gun shows, shooting ranges, and everywhere else, so we
also request that we get to put these ads to good use in other forms, as well.
DONATE TO HELP WITH THE AD
We're nearly done with our paperwork for the
501(c)(3) filing to please the Infernal Ripoff Service. Our .org site will be
revamped before or once we're "approved", and these donations are
expected to be fully tax deductible. Click here
to give to this campaign. Considering we've already had over $40,000
pledged, we expect we'll pull in the rest in plenty of time to get this ad
placed BEFORE Gore goes home crying after losing his bid for the White House.
