Dear Fellow American,
I am enclosing a survey on a very urgent
matter.
It will only take a moment of your time, but the topic is vital
to our nation’s future.
A movement is growing, led by progressives—but supported by
many well-meaning Americans—to change the way we elect our president. In
effect, it seeks to do away with the Electoral College as devised by the
Framers of our Constitution.
That’s why Hillsdale College is conducting a National
Survey on Presidential Selection.
By completing this survey and returning it to me as soon as
possible, you will help Hillsdale College more clearly understand the views
of mainstream Americans concerning this issue—views we will make
available to policymakers and opinion leaders.

Selection by using the link below:

For most of our nation’s history, the Electoral College, as
devised by the Framers of our Constitution, was not controversial. Indeed,
it was considered essential to preserving free and representative
government.
But today, more than a dozen states have joined together in an
attempt to undermine this constitutional xxxxxx of
liberty.
This movement to undermine the Constitution has grown largely
because of the failure of America’s schools to provide young people with
a proper grounding in American civics—too many Americans simply don’t
understand the importance of the Constitution, including the Electoral
College, to liberty.
Because of this, Hillsdale College has expanded its educational
mission on behalf of liberty nationwide, directly teaching
millions of Americans in all 50 states.
These efforts, which aim to counter the Left’s domination over
most of our schools, include:
-
Teaching millions of citizens nationwide through
free online courses, such as “Constitution 101” and “The Great
American Story: A Land of Hope;”
-
Reaching over six million households and
businesses nationwide with Imprimis, Hillsdale’s free digest of
liberty;
-
Promoting constitutional education through
social media outlets popular with young people;
-
Sending millions of pocket-size copies of
America’s founding documents to citizens and K-12 schools across America;
and
-
Restoring excellence to K-12 education by
helping establish and guiding classical K-12 schools nationwide and
providing, free of charge, Hillsdale’s American classical K-12 curriculum
(including American civics) to thousands of American educators and
homeschoolers.
Your answers to the National Survey on Presidential
Selection will help Hillsdale form the most effective strategy to
educate millions of Americans about the importance of the Constitution to
liberty—including the importance of the Electoral College.
And this is especially important in this critical time for
America’s future.
So please share your views on this urgent topic by completing our
National Survey on Presidential Selection and returning it
to me as soon as possible. It will only take a few minutes of your
time.
You can take the survey using this secure link I've provided

And after you take your survey, I hope you will also consider
supporting Hillsdale College with a tax-deductible gift.
Since 1844, Hillsdale has been “pursuing truth and defending
liberty.” Today, it does so through its extensive educational outreach
efforts while refusing to accept ONE PENNY of government funding—not even
indirectly in the form of federal or state student grants or
loans.
The support of private citizens like you is essential to our
work.
Please represent your state and take the National Survey
on Presidential Selection today. Thank you for your time and
attention—and for your friendship and support of liberty.
Warm regards,
Larry P. Arnn
President, Hillsdale College
Pursuing Truth and Defending Liberty Since 1844
