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 nationâs 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.
Thatâs 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.
You can complete the National
Survey on Presidential Selection by using the link below:

For most of our nationâs 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 Americaâs schools to
provide young people with a proper grounding in American civics—too many
Americans simply donât 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 Leftâs domination over most of our schools, include:
• Teaching millions
of citizens nationwide through free online courses, such as âConstitution 101â and
âThe Great American Story: A Land of Hope;â
• Reaching over 5.6
million households and businesses nationwide with Imprimis , Hillsdaleâs free
digest of liberty;
• Promoting
constitutional education through social media outlets popular with young
people;
• Sending millions of
pocket-size copies of Americaâs founding documents to citizens and K-12 schools
across America, as well as to members of our armed forces; and
• Restoring
excellence to K-12 education through Hillsdaleâs Barney Charter School Initiative,
which launches and provides guidance to classical K-12 charter schools
nationwide.
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 2020, a critical year for Americaâs 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 the
secure link Iâve provided below:

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
âpursuing truth and defending liberty.â 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
