| Description | Florida is jeopardizing the most important decision we make as Americans every four years, the election of the President of the United States.
By violating Republican National Committee rules and choosing January 31, 2012 for Florida’s Presidential Primary, you have created havoc in the Presidential selection process. Florida has gained nothing by moving its primary date forward and will remain the fifth contest. You have caused tremendous disruption and uncertainty in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina. Florida would rob voters of one of the most important tools they need to make an informed decision: time.
Voters need time during the coming months to fully vet all eleven serious Republican Presidential candidates. Florida would potentially rob American voters of two months of campaigning which only helps the frontrunner. As one of these candidates for President, I cannot sit idly by while the state of Florida threatens the entire selection process.
The 2012 presidential election is of extreme importance. Our nation is at a crucial juncture and Florida’s poorly thought out decision is ill-conceived and un-American.
If Florida does not agree to move its primary back to its original date in March 2012 by November 1, 2011, we will officially launch a nationwide Boycott of Florida Orange Juice. We have the domain name, have begun developing our web site and have the ticking orange on our logo |
