My name is Scott Smith and the purpose of this effort is to raise funds to support my run as the independent Serve America Movement (SAM) Candidate for the United States Congress in New York's 18th Congressional District.  As it stands the other two options are an incumbent Major Party Candidate who moved here from New York City to run 8 years ago, or another Major Party Candidate who moved here from New York City just recently to run.  I believe we should have a Candidate that is from here, not just the ones who simply come here.  The attached video explains more about why we must step away from the current two party division-based political paradigm.   You can find much more information on the campaign website at www.MrSmithForCongress.com .   To learn more about the SAM Party, visit www.joinSAMny.org.   Thanks for your time and consideration.
