To the citizens of New Hampshire: 
 
>From Bruce C. Daniels, Democratic Party Candidate  
in the New Hampshire Presidential Primary for 1996. 
 
I would like to use the internet to introduce myself and to 
refer you to my home page if you would like to know more 
about my candidacy.  The Internet provides a wonderful 
opportunity for a candidate of limited financial means to 
contact an informed, relatively large segment of the 
electorate.  Thanks. 
 
My campaign may at first glance, appear to be eccentric or 
frivolous.  I intend it to be neither.  I am originally from 
Landaff, New Hampshire, where my family owned a farm from 
1945 until 1992.  At present, I am a dual citizen -- an 
American and Canadian -- and live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, 
where I teach American History at the University of 
Winnipeg.  I am running for the Democratic Presidential 
nomination as a Democrat who unabashedly embraces the 
concept of liberalism as it has been defined by Franklin 
Roosevelt's New Deal and subsequent social programs that aim 
at similar goals.  I wish to register my protest against the 
conservative ethos exemplified by Newt Gingrich's Contract 
With America, and I wish to add my voice to those trying to 
persuade President Clinton not to turn his back on 
traditional Democratic values in a wrongheaded attempt to 
get re-elected by being all things to all people.  In short, 
I want a Democratic Party that proudly uses the resources 
and moral authority of representative government to better 
the lives of the unfortunate, promote social justice, and 
heal the wounds that the Reagan-Bush years have left on the 
social structure.  
 
If you wish to see lengthier discussions of my own 
qualifications, liberal values, and strategies for the 
Presidential campaign, please refer to my home page, at 
http://www.daniels.winnipeg.mb.ca/.  If you agree with me, 
please vote for me in the New Hampshire Primary to send 
President Clinton a message that liberalism is politically 
viable.  To be on the New Hampshire ballot, I require forty-
two Democrats, registered in New Hampshire, who will agree 
to be my delegates if I were to win.  I will not win, of 
course, so agreeing to be a delegate will obligate no one:  
It will merely enable me to get on the ballot.  My home page 
has a delegate pledge form and instructions concerning it.  
Please consider filling a form out and sending it to me if 
you are a registered New Hampshire Democrat.  Or you can 
request a delegate form from me via e-mail at 
daniels@daniels.winnipeg.mb.ca, or P.O. Box 26116, 16 
Sherbrook Street, Winnipeg, MB, Canada, R3C 4K9. 
 
Thanks. 
Bruce Daniels
