Ret. Gen. Krulak

LIFELONG REPUBLICAN

RET. GEN. CHARLES KRULAK

ENDORSES DOUG JONES


We are tweeting Alabamians to tell them  about this endorsement of Doug Jones.

Ret. Gen. Charles Krulak is a lifelong Republican. He is former United States Marine Corps Commandant and former member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and was President of Birmingham-Southern College from 2011 to 2015. 

We think this endorsement should count significantly to you in making your voting decision and persuade you to vote for Doug Jones.

We want to DO mass direct tweeting to fellow Alabamians of this message.

Please join with us by doing either or both of Steps One and Two below.

Step One
Click on the below "Tweet here" link  to send a tweet that says,
Lifelong Republican Ret. Gen. Charles Krulak, former USMC Commandant, endorses Doug Jones for U.S. Senator. 
Please join with me in tweeting this to other Alabamians by clicking on link

(After you click on the below "Tweet here" link, you will see a preview of your tweet, and your tweet will not be sent until you click the "Tweet" button in the preview.)



Step Two
Send individual tweets to other Alabamians, which tweets have a link to this webpage. This will be to try to get recipients of tweets to come to this webpage, send their own tweet in Step One, and, after that, join in sending tweets to more Alabamans in this Step Two. The goal here to get a large number of "pyramiding" of tweets going to Alabama voters.

A suggested tweet message to send in this Step Two is:
Lifelong Republican Ret. Gen. Charles Krulak, former USMC Commandant, endorses Doug Jones for U.S. Senator.

Then find follower lists of Twitter accounts in your geographic area that have a lot of followers. Below are examples of good Twitter follower lists to use for the Huntsville, Birmingham, Montgomery, and Mobile areas:


FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR TWEETING

A. General
The object of this method of tweeting is to get a "pyramiding" of tweets going in Alabama. Anyone joining in this tweeting should consider whether it violates Twitter's Platform Manipulation and Spam Policy. I have endeavored to make my case with Twitter for this method of tweeting. See letter to Twitter @Support.

B. How to send your tweets efficiently from laptops
In doing your tweeting, you are repetitively sending the same tweet message. This can be done very efficiently, at least on a laptop computer. Get the tweet message on your mouse clipboard, go to the follower list  you are using for your tweeting, start with the first person on the list you want to tweet to, and do this:
1. Right click on person's Twitter name.
2. Choose "open in new tab"
3. Go to the new tab.
4. Click on the "Tweet to" button.
5. Paste the tweet message in the box.
6. Hit the "Tweet" button.
7. Close the tab, which takes you back to the list
8. Go on to next person, and repeat above steps.
You should be able to send 35 to 70 tweets in a half hour. Send as many tweets as you are willing to. Don't worry about any duplication that you think may arise.
