Bart,
I appreciate your long and loyal involvement in the campaign and I would like for you to continue working on special projects that will help us win this campaign. I will take full responsibility for gathering the voter signatures on the ballot measure and my signatures in lieu of the filing fee.
If Jack Davis is going to continue to work on our campaign, he will work full time gathering voter signatures on MUNI Metro platforms.
I would like for you and Alan to begin to screen volunteers that we will move into our volunteer housing. I have three volunteers Dal, Nicky, and Sam Larson who would be the first three candidates. I would like for you and Alan to interview, approve, or disapprove the candidates that we send to you. We will only send you volunteers who have demonstrated that they can collect 100 signatures a day. They will all be clean and sober. Most homeless people smoke and we will send them to Dr. Cheng for the acupuncture treatment before they move into the volunteer housing. I want our volunteer housing to be a supportive environment where the residents help each other stay off drugs including nicotine.
Any volunteer who gets a hundred signatures a day, we will house them overnight in ShelterOne, then move them to be screened by you and Alan.
I want nine full time volunteers on MUNI Metro platforms starting next Friday when our MUNI Signature cards arrive. I will stay on the Metro four days a week starting next Tuesday until the July 24th deadline for Sigs in Lieu. I need your help in staying focused on this important task.
Thanks for being a loyal friend.
Sincerely,
Jim Reid, the next mayor of San Francisco.

Angela,
Would you commit your time on setting up Habitat for the Homeless as a 501c3? I will take responsibility for gathering the voter signatures for the ballot measure and my sigs in lieu. I have assigned Jack Davis to collect 100 signatures a day and nothing else. If he does this, we will have 2,100 signatures just from him. I want to add one volunteer a day to work with him on MUNI platforms, so that by a week from Monday we will have one volunteer on each of the nine Metro underground platforms.
I will begin this coming this Tuesday to ride the Metro from embarcadero to West Portal and back from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and ask the people that I give my MUNI campaign cards to, to seek out one of our volunteers, and sign our petitions. If we only do this signature gathering strategy and move these 9 volunteers to the Pride parade site the last Saturday and Sunday of June, we will succeed in getting the needed signatures for the Homeless Housing ballot measure.
After the July 7th deadline for qualifying the ballot measure, we will focus the 9 volunteers on 17 days on the Metro platforms, getting the sigs in lieu we need to beat Gavin Newsom¡¦s voter signature numbers. Newsom¡¦s goal is to gather 20,000 voter signatures. Our goal is to gather 30,000. This could actually put us in second, not third place if we pull it off.
Angela, I would like for you to become the Executive Director of Habitat for the Homeless. We would need to have a new Board of Directors meeting and ratify new documents and file the paperwork over the internet ASAP. I would propose to invite the following people to be on the Board of Directors: Bart Kylstra, Alan Chu, Mai Kai Lee, Mabel Lee, and Dalibor Lorinc. I should not be on the Board, because I could do more for the organization as Mayor if I am not a member.
I have talked to a patron who wishes to remain anonymous, who will give us $5,000.00 as soon as we have filed the paperwork and another $2,500.00 a month for a year. This would pay for our volunteer housing and we would then have the foundation for moving ten former homeless people into ShelterOne units in neighborhoods as soon as March of next year. We could have our volunteers work full time to get the Shipyard measure passed so that we would have a site, to build and store ShelterOne units until we move 2,000 of them out into the neighborhoods in the next four years.
We will get very good press coverage in the coming months and in the televised mayoral debates, if I can say that our campaign set up the infrastructure to rehabilitate and house 2,000 homeless people over a four-year period. This is something concrete, not just talk and plans like the other big-name well-funded candidates are doing. AND we are doing this WITHOUT spending any taxpayer money. This will be a powerful statement in the debates. It will win the election for us.
I appreciate your help with our campaign and look forward to a long business relationship and friendship with you.
Sincerely,
Jim Reid, the next mayor of San Francisco.

Alan,
Thanks for your hospitality. I have discovered that Chinese and other Asians are generally very good and generous people. They will be a big part of my administration as mayor. And we are going to win this election. In the future, I will bring my own food so that I don't have to take yours. Thanks again for your time.
I will have Dalibor Lorinc, Dal for short, call you this morning about coming over to meet you and have coffee. He the handyman who is working on my house. He has been working for free on doing carpentry projects on my house, ShelterOne, and the Gem truck all because he was homeless and stayed in ShelterOne for a week and is working to own one in the future.
He is a great guy and I hope to motivate two dozen such men and women to work full time on my campaign in the next six months by offering them temporary housing and the opportunity to work to own a ShelterOne house when I am mayor. This will motivate them to work six days a week on my campaign doing anything that is needed to get the vote out. Twenty full time motivated volunteers are better than the 100 part time volunteers that Ammiano has or 500 part time paid volunteers as Newsom has.
So far I have motivated three people to work full time on our campaign by providing them with temporary housing and the hope of permanent housing. We will to do this for 25 people before the election is over. When I move out of my room, I will have two volunteers living in my room, two in the guest room that Dal is finishing, and two in ShelterOne.
I plan to win this election and I need for everyone to help until it hurts.
Thanks Much for your help Alan.
Sincerely,
Your friend, Jim Reid, the next mayor of San Francisco.

With the cost of tobacco, the average homeless person smokes the equivalent of their first and last months rent on a small apartment each year. Candidate for Mayor Jim Reid has three volunteers who have agreed to try to give up smoking for six months in exchange for first and last months rent on a small apartment or as the down payment on a ShelterOne house should Reid be elected mayor in November.
The volunteers have agreed to put the $3.00 a day that they spend on a pack of cigarettes into a special down payment fund for six months with the agreement that Reid will add $500.00 if they are still clean of their nicotine addiction after six months. Reid has arranged with a retired acupuncturist and a student of Acupuncture to treat the volunteers?daily using acupuncture to alleviate their addiction to nicotine. If his program is successful and Reid becomes the next mayor of San Francisco he will fund a program to offer free acupuncture treatment and an opportunity to buy a ShelterOne house for any San Franciscan who wants to kick the habit and is committed to staying clean.
This is good news for the city budget and bad news for the tobacco companies.

Contacting millionaires already promised $500 donation checks to mail in the donation ...
ShelterOne, the smallest house in San Francisco, is sleeping two former homeless people and one soon to become homeless person.
The tiny house, a 21st Century version of the 1906 earthquake shacks, designed by building contractor Jim Reid as the ideal house for one person, is today sleeping three people in a quiet hillside San Francisco neighborhood.
These three men have volunteered to help Reid be elected the next Mayor of San Francisco after visiting ShelterOne. Jack Davis has become Reid’s volunteer coordinator. Davis an experienced business manager fell on hard times in Nashville and become homeless for over a year.
Dalibor Lorinc, veteran of the Navy, seaman, handyman, and plumber is maintaining ShelterOne, Reid’s two electric campaign vehicles, and planning to remodel and maintain the seven room flat Reid plans to use to house ten volunteers later this month. Lorinc plans to oversee the construction of thousands of ShelterOne housing units to be built at Hunters Point shipyard once Reid is elected mayor.
The third man Sam Larson is about to loose his small apartment because he and his roommates are unemployed. Reid and Davis met Larson on a Fulton Street bus a week ago and told him about their plans to build tiny houses that people like Larson could afford to buy. Larson has volunteered to work full time to gather signatures on Reid’s Hunters Point Homeless Rehabilitation Center; ballot measure.
Reid has a dozen other clean and sober homeless people or soon to be homeless people who are willing to work full time on his campaign if Reid can put together the financial resources to lease the Haight Street flat that he has in mind. The monthly rent of the large flat is $2,800.00 and Reid would like to house ten people, two in a room. Reid plans to offer housing for a year for any clean and sober volunteer who will work full time on his campaign. “These hardworking volunteers will be the first in line to have an opportunity to work to own a ShelterOne of their own once I am mayor.?Says Reid.
Reid said to Jack Davis this morning that the press should see these tree men sleeping in this tiny house; one in the bunk, one in the rocking chair, and one on the floor.

Subject: Special notice from homelessinhuntington Welcome Cheng!
Wow!!I just read the seven nights in hell ,about the mayor hopefull. What a trip!!I can relate with him on alot of his views, the lottery system in bigger citys, that the so called "coalitions" and other advocates should get out of the way and let us build decent shelters, quit worring about money and polotics (as if that were possible!), that each person could be one paycheck away from being homeless, Like Jim I hate litter, I see it every where, the wine RIGHT BESIDE A DUMPSTER, shit blowing down the plaza, the disrespect for nature or the well being for others let alone ourselves. BEING HOMELESS IS HELL, it robs us of our dignity and our self worth, that is if we beleive the lies the caretakers are feeding us. I like the idea of 10,000 homeless men from sacramento to washington dc, to camp and build shantys on the white house lawn, the idea of the street sweepers and how many millions of dollars the citys spend while able bodied men do nothing but panhandle and drink.
We had a plan to try to finance our own "safe haven"here in Huntington, to make it part of our stay to clean several city blocks in the city. It was great to see this in print, especialy in a large city like sacramento. We are a small river town that is run by old money, old ideas,yes,old people.The young are bored, the old say if they would only behave. The youth here feel traped, misunderstood, like they are living in rut, and a very deep rut at that. This town bucks at change, at getting to the heart of the matter. Just look away while the town drunk(s) piss and shit in your door way. Huntington is a magnet for people who have given up. The little house storie in time magazine may be part of the solution, along with alot of hard work. In oregon, they have a tent city, my goodness, we are in WEST VIRGINA! Wild & wonderful,that is if you have somewhere to sleep at night!! Why dont we have a tent city? Dont know....old money, old polotics,yes,no room for the young to spread there wings and hover, let alone fly.so,yes,if i were in california,i would vote for jim reid.And if some one is reading this now and is confused,please go to the previose message and read" SEVEN NIGHTS IN HELL It's long but it's an experience!!!!
-Supporter from Huntington WV
Sunday, June 8, 2003 We need to pay for many things that will get us better name recognition with voters.
Large campaign signs with the photo of the candidate as they use in New York City and European elections $1,900 for 1,000 full color signs. Chinese language signs, $1,000 for 500 signs. 20,000 - $5.00 raffle tickets $850.00. 10,000 folded black & white fliers $1,000.00 10,000 small Jim Reid for Mayor window signs - $2,000.00 Food and cigarettes for signature gatherers $1,500.00 10,000 Chinese language campaign cards $351.00. Etc, etc.
Can you arrange a $10,000 loan to the campaign so that we can get through June and give us the tools to gather the needed signatures before the windows close on signature gathering on the ballot measure and the Sigs in Lieu?
We are getting behind the other candidates because we have little money in our checking account. ... We could move ahead of her in the next month if we had only $10,000.00
People come into our campaign office everyday and ask us if we have any campaign literature and we give them our small business cards and tell them to go to the internet. We tell them that we have no money to print literature as the well-funded candidates. ...

We have phone numbers for all theses people.

Our campaign has little money and we need to think of creative ways to compensate our volunteers, most of whom are homeless, for their efforts to gather signatures two efforts.
5 valid signatures = Hot dog, chips, soda 25 valid signatures = a pack of cigarettes 100 valid signatures = a MUNI Fast Pass 500 valid signatures = a cell phone with air time 5,000 valid signatures = Housing for six months 10,000 valid signatures = Housing for twelve months 100,000 valid signatures = a ShelterOne house
Any volunteer who will gather voter signatures to put my name or our housing measure on the ballot will get my diligent effort to find permanent housing for them. Today I did some research in the internet on Danielle Steel. I plan to write a letter to her and hand deliver it to her home in Washington Street later today along with our campaign video and our ballot measure. I hope that she will meet with me and offer to host a house party for all of her friends and acquaintances, so that I can realize my dream of housing ten dedicated volunteers for a year until we can build them a ShelterOne house. Stay tuned.

The San Francisco Business Times called today to ask my opinion of Mayor Brown's plan to build housing at the Shipyard. I said that it was a bad idea because it excluded 70% of the people who live in San Francisco from owning housing built at the shipyard. I told him that affordable and workforce housing are unaffordable to the vast majority of us who live and work here and that I thought that is was a bad use of public land. The story will appear in two weeks.

I tell anyone who is complaining about the past that what happened or didn't happen in the past is history and that we cannot change history. History is to learn from not to dwell on. Power is in the now. Today is full of opportunity. We need to plan for tomorrow based on the lessons of the recent past. Our campaign committee will plan a strategy to get 20,000 voter signatures in lieu of the filing fee to run for Mayor and twenty thousand voter signatures on our Hunters Point Shipyard Homeless Rehabilitation Center ballot measure.

Monday, June 2, 2003 Jack Davis back from 4 day Compaign Training with Victor Fundation.
Weekly Campaign Committee Meeting at 6pm.
The campaign song needs to come from the ideas and passions that are on
the SFMayor.com web site. Thoughts like building housing for homeless
people, building housing for working people, building an extraordinary
public transit system.
The Home at Hunters Point Campaign
Here are a few thoughts. One VERY important happening will be in
September when the City will implement the MUNI Fare increase of 25
cents a ride or $10.00 a month increase in the Fast Pass cost. It could
be a powerful moment for us to release the song to the radio stations
the same week that the fare increase goes into effect. This could be
September first. Half of the people who live in San Francisco ride MUNI
and half of them vote. Some line like "Improve MUNI service...NO FARE
INCREASE" would be a good thing to be in the song.
This would not need to be in the song released for the Gay Parade
because is will not be an issue then and we should save it until
September.
Words, Words, Words:
Follow the lead.Vote for Jim Reid
Improve MUNI service.No fare increase
House the homeless, house the workers, house us all.
He sees your xxx
He hears your xxx
He feels your xxx
Action - Courage - Integrity were John F. Kennedy's campaign theme
words and they could apply to Jim Reid
