6 Quick Tips to Make Your Copy More Believable
| |
| Believability above a certain point makes sales; below that point it does not. Ad copy must make what lawyers call "a prima facie case" -- that is, a case that warrants a trial in court. Only the court is the consumer, and the trial is buying and using the goods. |

The Mobile Mexican Magnate: How Carlos Slim Helu Got His Start
| |

He is known for never cracking a smile, but Helu’s current monopoly over the telecommunications industry in Mexico must surely make him one happy businessman. With his hands now in all of the retail, banking and insurance, technology, and auto parts manufacturing industries, Helu shows no signs of slowing down. |

Government Does Not Create Jobs Or Wealth
| |
| Americans are starting to see behind the curtain, and they're refusing to buy what's behind it. Average Americans see the declining purchasing power of their dollars from the gas pump to the grocery store. They see someone in their family or neighborhood who's been out of work for over a year. They see unions tear apart state capitols for more rights to bloated salaries and benefits, and they see taxpayers stating clearly that such luxurious jobs can no longer be afforded. They see their own credit card bills and their own shaky retirement accounts. When the media asks them to believe what they're being told instead of what they see, average Americans shake their heads and worry.... |

Americans' Unhealthy Lifestyle Is the Leading Cause of Death
| |
| The leading cause of death in America is not heart disease, cancer, stroke or diabetes. It is the unhealthy lifestyle that most Americans are addicted to which is the true cause. A study by Mathew Reeves, a Michigan State University epidemiologist finds that only 3% of Americans maintain a healthy lifestyle. It is a situation that is causing dire consequences for millions of Americans.

Keep The NEWSS In Mind
| |
| It's not about politics. Whether or not they're fans of the president and his party (and his other policies), Americans generally are not fans of the health care reform legislation they pushed through two years ago and are now in the process of implementing.

The Conscience Of A Restorationist, IX
| |
| We're not black or white, or hispanic... we're Americans. We're not men or women... we're Americans. We're not rich or poor... we're Americans. We’re not old or young… we’re Americans. We're supposed to be ONE nation, under God. We must hang together, or we'll be divided, and conquered. Whatever other restoration projects you take on - however you help restore our limited-government, free-market republic - make sure your values and behaviors bolster American unity. We value diversity in America, sure, but that doesn't mean we don't value unity. Unity is the foundation of our republic. Always has been, and always (as long as we can keep our republic) will be.... |
