Thread: ALIPAC Action Network Operations & You

Friends of ALIPAC,

Since we have so many new subscribers to our e-mail alerts, we would like to review how our ALIPAC Action Network (AAN) works.

For starters, please make sure you open each e-mail we send you and please read the entire e-mail carefully. We have learned that many of you quickly scan our e-mails without proceeding into the contents. Many of our e-mails contain vital information you will miss without careful attention.

We have over 25,000 people on our e-mail alert list. We comply with all laws regarding such e-mails. Each of you "double opted in" meaning you signed up and received a confirmation e-mail to signify you want to receive the emails. Yet, some Spam filters give us trouble from time to time.

The ALIPAC website is now receiving around 4 million hits per month thanks to your efforts and support!

We need you to remain diligent to assure that our e-mails are getting through. Recently, cox.net started listing us erroneously as spam. If you are a cox.net customer and their system is giving you trouble, send them a note with one of our emails attached telling them not mark us as spam and send to thisisnotspam@cox.net Please contact us if you have trouble receiving our e-mails, as there are many powerful and influential groups that seek to silence us.

Our e-mail alerts are a key part of our success fighting illegal immigration.

Some of you just read the e-mails to stay informed. Others utilize our activist alerts to make calls, send letters, e-mails, and faxes to lawmakers.

ALIPAC has been at the center of the efforts to elevate the illegal immigration issue above the silence that reined a few years back.

We have come a long way from three years ago when you could hardly get the main stream media to report on this issue.

While stories about illegal immigration are now common in the main stream media, many stories continue to be censored or twisted by the politics of some media sources.

We rely on the Internet and talk radio to provide a bypass circuit to get accurate and important information to the public, which is not presented by the main stream media as a whole.

Many of you take our e-mail alerts a step further by forwarding our e-mails to others, posting the contents on websites across America, and by calling into talk radio shows to discuss the contents.

When ALIPAC sends you a breaking story, we need you to carry the message forward.

Many of our core activists have created contact lists that contain local and national news contacts as well.

Many of you are hosts and producers of talk radio shows, news shows, local cable shows. Many of you are reporters and bloggers.

Each of you are considered part of the AAN (ALIPAC Action Network) and together we have the ability to reach a large volume of Americans with important news and alerts.

We must not become complacent as this battle moves forward and we must remember that the vast majority of Americans are still not getting the amount of important information we receive. We cannot rely on the corporate media to do the job that is up to us.

While you are responding to our e-mail alerts and doing your part, our ALIPAC team is hitting the talk radio airways, speaking with reporters, launching press releases, contacting our allies, and working the phones to lead the effort.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON FORWARDING E-MAILS.

5 Important Tips

If you forward our e-mails, please remember the following tips.

1. Make sure you either use the FORWARD feature in our e-mails or remove the UNSUBSCRIBE language at the bottom of our e-mails before sending to others. If you do not do this, someone else that receives your copy of the email can unsubscribe you with one click. If you have been unsubscribed from our list by someone you forwarded e-mails to, you must sign back up via one of our parallel sites at www.illegalimmigrationboycott.com or www.bankofamericaboycott.com or www.boycottabsolut.com

2. If you are contacting others via e-mail alerts, please only send a few e-mails per week at most. The more e-mails you send to others, the more likely they will not to open your e-mails.

3. Make every effort to personalize your e-mails and send individually whenever possible, since people tend to give less priority to e-mails sent to multiple contacts.

4. Please encourage others to visit www.alipac.us and to sign up for our e-mail alerts, which will to help us expand our network of citizen activists.

5. If someone asks to be removed from your e-mail list, take them off quickly and without question.

Many news stories have moved from local stories to national stories because of your efforts as part of the AAN.

This is a core part of our operations that we want as many of you to participate in as possible.

If you have any questions at anytime, remember that our ALIPAC activists stand ready to assist you in our Discussion Groups area at www.alipac.us

ALIPAC is designed for people with time and no money, money and not time, and everyplace between the two.

When we all move together and when we speak with one voice we have the ability to get urgent news to the nation, regardless of what Big Brother wants.

WHY DOESN'T ALIPAC OFFER CLICK AND GO E-mails and Faxes like other groups do?

While we respect and appreciate the grand contributions of other groups that have simplified activism panels which allow you to send template faxes and e-mails, ALIPAC Activism alerts are designed to require legwork from our activists because of the effectiveness these measures are.

We use our experience with campaign and lawmaker’s offices to teach you the methods that will have the greatest chance of success.

The greatest chance of success is with phone calls that are reinforced by e-mails, letters, and faxes which are unique and distinct messages personalized from you and sent individually to the targets. Sending bulk e-mails and faxes can help our cause, but are not as efficient as our more labor intensive methods.

Also, other groups have the bases covered on the template communications and ALIPAC is playing a role that must be covered.

We all need to exercise our freedoms, while we still have them. We just learned that famed French actress Brigitte Bardot has been charged, convicted, and sentenced for the crime of speaking out against immigration.

Americans can expect these kinds of laws in our future. Canada already has them and they should be considered a component of economic unions like the SPP here on our continent.

The opposition is certainly reading our e-mails. Their baleful eyes are watching closely. We hope you will do the same as they seek to derail ALIPAC and your efforts at every turn.

You are all part of the ALIPAC Team and our activism efforts are quite legendary on the web. Many of you are the unsung heroes of America and we celebrate your efforts and want each of you to know it is a great honor for us to stand side by side with you in this struggle.

We stand together in these dark days as a unified political force ready to take America back one call, one e-mail, one town, and one state at a time.

Keep the faith,
