  3. What is GOOOH? • A process • U.S. House of Representatives only • Participants are candidates • Participants select the candidate • Non-partisan • No platform • Mandatory Term Limits • No special interest money • No parties • No career politicians • Hold our leaders accountable

  4. Government Failure • 12 Trillion Dollar Deficit? • Failing Education System • (30% of kids do not graduate) • Corrupt Tax Code • Leaking Borders • Ineptitude: • Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac • AmTrak • Post Office • etc.

  5. Politicians • John Murtha: 3 flights a day, contracts for his nephew, Airport name • Arlen Specter “will not let the primary voters determine the fate of my political career” • Joe Liebermann: run out of party for not voting how he was told. • Contract with America: “we don’t need term limits, we are in power now.” Armey • “Read my lips” Bush I • “I did not have sex…” Clinton

  6. Why All 435 Must GO • Politicians serve • the special interest groups that fund them • the parties who tell them how to vote • their political career • We the people are FOURTH at best on their list of priorities • If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.

  7. How GOOOH Works • Candidate Questionnaire • 500,000 Participants • $100 Donation • Ballot Access • Pools of Ten, Choose Two, Repeat • Final Pool Chooses the Candidate • National Campaign

  8. Field of Dreams • Recall the movie Field of Dreams • And the line, “If We Build It, They Will Come.” • We have built the system. • We seek the modern day incarnations of Madison, Franklin, and Jefferson

  9. Common Questions • Do we have enough time? • Won’t we split the vote? • Can a third party win? • Can we get on the ballot? • I like my Congressman?

  10. Next Steps • Join • Recruit • Make a list of 20 family and friends you can get to JOIN • Ask them to JOIN • Follow up and make sure they have joined • Contact • 3 media members; copy tim@goooh.com • 3 Meetup groups (use Meetup.com) • Next Assignment • Contact goooh@goooh.com and ask for more
