Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) is the 12th presidential candidate whose emails to supporters I am posting here. I am posting these for 14 of the 16 presidential candidates. Once I get emails from Cong. Ron Paul (R-Tx.) and Cong. Tom Tancredo (R-Col.), I will have completed this project.
In other campaign news, Democratic long-shot Mike Gravel is hosting an alternative presidential debate in Las Vegas. And, Republican Fred Thompson recieved an endorsement for a national pro-life lobbyist group.
If there is anyone visiting this blog from Tashkent, Uzbekistan, they should realize that the campaign process in America is one that can be as confusing as it is intriguing.

Dear Friend,
 The crowd of 7,000 was absolutely electric in Des Moines on Saturday night.
But it erupted around three minutes into Senator Dodd's speech, as he hit his stride. Watch the video, read the partial transcript below and forward it to your friends.

"On the very first hour, of the very first day on January 20, 2009, as I have fought for over the last number of years in this administration -- I will restore to the American people, the Constitution of the United States."
"You're gonna get your Constitution back! You're gonna get your Constitution back."
"No more Abu Ghraibs!"
"No more Guantanamos!"
"No more torture!"
"No more rendering!"
"No more providing retroactive immunity for companies that turned over their records to the Bush Administration without a court order!"
"No more waterboarding!"
"No more denying people habeas corpus in this country, a right that has existed for 900 years!"
"And there will be no more Attorney Generals of the United States who believe an American President is above the law."
"That's gonna change."
The crowd grew louder with each pronouncement. It was a magical evening.
Watch the video and forward it to your friends

We'll keep talking about the Constitution.
Someone has to.
Tim Tagaris
Chris Dodd for President
