> In addition, my discovery will FIX Obamacare and turn it from the Democrats’ biggest liability into their greatest asset giving the Democrats a last minute “Hail Mary” that can help them to win midterm elections next week and retain control of the Senate, but time is short! I need to hear from you by tomorrow at the latest, but preferable today, or even this evening.
>
> As you know, Democrats are expected to lose control of the Senate while losing even more seats in Congress in November due to the majority of America’s disdain of Obamacare. I can save the Obama-Biden legacy and prevent certain disaster for Democrats in next week’s midterm elections. I can prevent the Obama-Biden White House from becoming a lame duck Administration for the remaining two years of their term, as political experts are now predicting will happen. It will not matter if a Democrat is elected President in 2016 if the GOP controls the House and Senate during their presidency.
>
> Republicans are running and WINNING on the promise to repeal Obamacare. Democrats are running on the promise to FIX Obamacare, but have not been able to create a viable or popular solution to fix the massive problems that plague the current structure of the ACA. National polls show that the majority of voters would vote for Democrats IF they fixed the problems in Obamacare BEFORE the election. A mere “PROMISE” to fix Obamacare will NOT suffice! That’s where you and I come in.
>
> I can eliminate the negative elements that voters, business owners and insurance companies HATE about Obamacare while keeping the positive components. Democrats can campaign in the remaining days on the slogan, “America spoke - we listened! We fixed Obamacare!” This is literally the Democrat’s best and ONLY chance to win in November and retain control of the Senate!
>
> My discovery can slash healthcare costs by a HALF TRILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR, save U.S. Business owners over $400 Billion per year and save taxpayers over $600 Billion per year and I can PROVE IT!
>
> It will make Obamacare 100% SELF-FUNDING and eliminate the need for fees, surcharges, taxes, penalties and higher health care costs that turned voters against Obama and the Democrats and handed Republicans an easy platform to win the November elections.
>
> My research has been recognized by U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius, the office of Federal Reserve Chairman, Ben Bernanke (due to the $1 TRILLION impact my discovery will have on the U.S. economy), Director of the Centers For Disease Control, Dr. Thomas Frieden, several Governors, U.S. Senators, state and national doctors’ groups and others.
>
> My discovery has already been TESTED and PROVEN by multiple state and national doctors’ associations. I can provide you with testimonial letters, press releases and medical journal magazine articles praising my research and breakthrough discoveries.
>
> Here are the details:
>
> First, the BAD NEWS: Contrary to outdated and incomplete CDC data showing that cigarette smoking costs the U.S. about $300 Billion per year, I uncovered Hundreds of Billions of dollars in HIDDEN and indirect costs and risks of smoking that pushes the actual cost to U.S. business owners, insurance companies and taxpayers to over $1 TRILLION per year! (I can provide a complete list of reasons.)
>
> During my 20 years of research, I uncovered hidden links between totally unrelated studies that revealed previously undiscovered ripple effects of cigarette smoking.
>
>
> For example, who would EVER connect cigarette smoking to the record 26,000 RAPES in the U.S. Military in 2012? I am the ONLY person to make the connection! In a nutshell, 90% of rapes in the military involve alcohol abuse. Studies show that smokers drink THREE TIMES more alcohol and are TEN TIMES more likely to become alcohol impaired than nonsmokers. In addition, smoking causes a specific type of brain damage that makes smokers far more likely to commit acts of violence. One in every three (32%) active duty military personnel are smokers! I can provide much more detailed information including numerous government and university studies.
>
> Now, the GOOD NEWS: My 20 years of research yielded the world’s first CURE for nicotine addiction. Over 83,000 smokers have quit smoking during our 20 years of R&D with an unprecedented 93% SUCCESS RATE, which is higher than Nicorette Gum, Nicoderm Patch, Zyban and Chantix, COMBINED. My formula has been tested, proven and endorsed by more state and national doctor’s organizations than any other stop smoking product in history!
>
> Your brother, Beau, has had personal health challenges involving a mild stroke and cancer. One in three cancer deaths worldwide and one in five strokes is from smoking. We can slash both by record numbers on a global scale!
>
> The data on smoking below came from 20 years of reviewing a myriad of studies by the U.S. Government and many prestigious universities including Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT, Johns Hopkins and dozens of others as well as tens of thousands of news articles. I just happen to be the first person to connect all the dots and put this massive jigsaw puzzle together. Granted, it took me 20 years, but it was worth the effort as Hundreds of Millions of lives worldwide and Trillions of dollars will be saved. The information below are highlights only. I can provide far more detailed information.
>
> Impact on “Hot Button” Political Issues:
> 1.) OBAMACARE: Smoking is the #1 reason for the high cost of healthcare in America adding up to $700 Billion per year of direct, indirect and hidden healthcare costs.
> Smokers average six more visits to health care facilities per year, such as hospital, urgent care facility or doctor’s office, 39% more hospital admissions and stay in the hospital 22% longer than nonsmokers. Plus add all the related costs of prescription drugs, X-Rays, blood tests, CT scans, MRI’s, EKG’s, EEG’s, lab work, Ultrasound, etc.
>
> According to the Centers For Disease Control, employers pay 25% higher group health rates due to smoking. Nearly one in every five (18%) adults in the U.S. is a smoker.
>
> The HIDDEN healthcare costs of smoking are beyond measure because smoking weakens the immune system and causes or worsens hundreds of illnesses, diseases, pre-existing conditions and birth defects that people do not associate with smoking such as Diabetes, Alzheimer’s, Flu, Crohn’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Alcoholism, Autism, Cleft Lip, Cleft Pallet and hundreds of others.
>
> Smokers get sick more frequently, more easily, have more severe symptoms and stay sick longer than nonsmokers. It takes smokers twice as long to recover from injury, surgery and illness.
> 2.) Economy: University studies show that smoking drains Hundreds of Billions of dollars per year from the U.S. national, state and local economies. U.S. employees who smoke cigarettes cost American business owners over $400 Billion per year in increased overhead and lost productivity.
>
>
> 3.) JOBS: During a slow economy, U.S. businesses would have to lay off TEN MILLION workers who earn an average of $40,000 per year in order to offset the $400 Billion they are now losing due to smoking employees.
>
>
> 4.) Medicaid & Medicare: Smoking related illnesses cost Medicare and Medicaid over $70 Billion per year and growing rapidly. The savings to Medicare by helping smokers to quit will be embraced by the AARP, who lost over 300,000 members due to their endorsement of Obamacare.
> 5.) State Budget Deficits: Smoking related costs add $1 Billion to $20 Billion per year to each state government budget, depending on the size of the state. The annual revenue received by each state in tobacco sales tax only offsets a small portion of the annual losses from tobacco.
>
>
>
> 6.) School Budget Deficits: Smoking teachers, bus drivers and other school employees add over $12 Billion per year to school budget costs in America.
>
>
> 7.) Taxes: Smoking costs taxpayers Hundreds of Billions of dollars per year in increased local, state and federal taxes, equally shared by the 82% nonsmoking majority. I have uncovered hundreds of Billions of dollars in HIDDEN costs of smoking to taxpayers.
>
>
> 8.) America’s AAA Credit Rating: Moodys warned U.S. officials that America would lose its’ AAA credit rating two years BEFORE the downgrade was issued unless the U.S. took "radical action" to curb health care costs. My formula can slash healthcare costs by Hundreds of Billions of dollars.
>
>
> 9.) U.S. Military & Veterans: The DoD and V.A. spend over $15 Billion per year to treat illnesses that are directly or indirectly caused or exacerbated by smoking. My formula can ELIMINATE the backlogs and long delays at V.A. hospitals. Smoking Veterans add over 15.2 Million annual smoking-related visits to V.A. health care facilities! My formula can also reduce rape, suicide, drug and alcohol abuse, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression and many other problems facing our military and Veterans.
>
> Your Mother and Michelle Obama are passionate about their national initiative, “Joining Forces.” Smoking prevents Veterans from getting jobs with many employers, and will be even tougher when the smoking provision of Obamacare begins on January 1, 2015. My formula can help our Military and Vets quit smoking faster and easier than any other product on the planet, GUARANTEED!
>
> 10.) Global Warming: Smoking is responsible for over 20% of Global Warming! (Details available upon request)
> 11.) Foreclosures: Smokers are 500% more likely to lose their homes to foreclosure.
>
> Fixing “Obamacare”
>
> Under the Affordable Care Act, (ACA a.k.a. Obamacare) health insurance companies must accept new customers with pre-existing conditions, however, thanks to a loophole, they CAN and DO deny coverage for the life-saving medications to TREAT those illnesses, which renders the one feature of Obamacare that America liked, completely worthless. I can fix this critical issue.
>
> Over 30 Million U.S. smokers try quitting each year, but 97.5% FAIL. My formula can help 93% to succeed in quitting. This will slash healthcare costs by Hundreds of Billions of dollars per year and make healthcare reform work in a way that makes everyone happy, including:
>
> 1.) Health Insurance Companies – My discovery will be embraced by the Health Insurance Industry (AHIP) because it will save insurance companies Hundreds of Billions of dollars per year in smoking-related health claims while reducing dozens of chronic illnesses; diseases, birth defects and pre-existing conditions by record numbers.
>
> The huge savings can be used to expand healthcare coverage to more Americans with fewer exemptions, including pre-existing conditions, plus cover life-saving medication costs that are currently NOT covered in the ACA and eliminate the penalties, taxes, price hikes and surcharges that everyone in America hates about Obamacare. We can keep the positives and eliminate the negatives.
>
>
> 2.) Business Owners – It can save U.S. business owners well over $400 Billion per year with ZERO COST to their business, which will make businesses and trade organizations like the Business Roundtable, National Federation of Independent Business, Fortune 500 companies, The National Association of Manufacturers and all other business groups and business owners because it will save U.S. businesses over $400 Billion per year with ZERO COST to their business.
>
>
> 3.) Unions – The $400 Billion in annual savings to U.S. business owners can enable businesses to create up to Ten Million new jobs with an average pay of $40,000 per year while paving the way for more attractive employee benefits packages.
>
>
> 4.) Taxpayers (Voters) - It will save taxpayers Hundreds of Billions of dollars per year in smoking-related local, state and federal taxes.
>
>
> 5.) Lawmakers - It will reduce local, state and federal budget deficits by Hundreds of Billions of dollars per year and solve a lot of budget problems that lawmakers are facing.
>
> The cost of funding Obamacare will be forced onto employers and individuals, many of whom can least afford it. Telling tens of Millions of Voters who are barely making ends meet that they either have to buy health insurance, which they already cannot afford, or the Federal Government is going to fine them several thousand dollars, which they also cannot afford, is absurd!!
>
> The solution is not to force Americans to fund Obama’s pet project that the majority of voters do not even want and are strongly against, but to find the funding elsewhere. Helping ONLY the smokers who ALREADY WANT TO QUIT SMOKING to succeed can slash healthcare costs in the U.S. by FOUR TIMES the amount needed to fully fund Obamacare making it 100% self-funding.
>
> Republicans are BY FAR the biggest beneficiaries of Tobacco political donations and John Boehner is the poster boy of Tobacco money.
>
> I applaud your brother for joining 23 other AG’s who are trying to persuade WalMart and Walgreens to stop selling cigarettes.
>
> Under Obamacare, beginning January 1, 2015 health insurance companies MUST reimburse their customers for the cost of smoking cessation products. Health insurance companies and employers can charge smokers up to 50% higher insurance costs. These three factors will provide a BIG incentive for smokers to quit! My formula can help smokers to quit FAST and EASY!
>
> Unfortunately, Obamacare now threatens to destroy the Democratic Party in the November mid-term and 2016 elections. The concept of the ACA is wonderful, but the design and execution has been a disaster for Democrats while giving Republicans a platform that can empower the GOP to take control of the Senate along with a larger majority in Congress and then the Oval Office in 2016. The good news is, it is not too late to fix the problem. I can provide the vital solution to fix Obamacare that the Democrats so desperately need! You and I can save the Democratic Party and change history!
>
> ABOUT MY FORMULA: I spent the past 20 years developing the world’s first CURE for nicotine addiction. As I mentioned earlier, over 83,000 people have stopped smoking during the various stages of research and development with an unprecedented 93% success rate, which is higher than Nicorette Gum, Nicoderm Patch, Zyban and Chantix COMBINED!
>
> My formula works in a fraction of the time (just 5 to 7 days) while theirs takes 3 to 6 months. Those products come with warnings of various side effects, which have resulted in numerous lawsuits that erode company profits and impact stock values; mine has NO side effects.
>
> I have developed the safest, fastest and most effective stop smoking program on the planet!
> My formula also works on all smokeless tobacco products like chewing tobacco and snuff.
>
> During my research I discovered twelve key elements that must be addressed to achieve PERMANENT success in quitting smoking. Other stop smoking products only address one or two of these twelve key elements, which explains their poor success rate and high relapse rate.
>
> In 2004 my formula was tested by West Virginia University executives including the Director [at the time] of WVU's “Tobacco Research Center,” Dr. Elbert Glover, who headed up the medical team that conducted the clinical trials for nearly every major smoking cessation product on the market today.
>
> They were so amazed at how effective and quickly my formula worked on their test group, all of whom quit smoking, which included some of their own family members, WVU agreed to fully fund the clinical trials in exchange for part ownership in the global sales.
>
> We could not agree on terms, however, so I walked away from negotiations and continued my research on the health, economic, social, environmental and political impact of smoking.
>
> I can provide you with a copy of a letter from Dr. Glover regarding our meetings and WVU’s agreement to fund the clinical trials as well as letters I have received regarding my research and formula from several government officials.
>
> Midterm elections are just DAYS AWAY, so we need to move quickly! I would like you to get my research directly to your father and President Obama as soon as possible and to set up a meeting with you, your father, President Obama and me to discuss how to use my research and formula to change the outcome of the elections.
>
> I can also show President Obama a GREAT idea on how to virtually ELIMINATE three of the biggest GOP funding sources that pump millions of dollars per year into Republican election campaigns including hundreds of thousands of dollars per year to John Boehner. My idea will humiliate the GOP and make the Democrats look like heroes!
>
> As Obama attempts to rally other countries to join the U.S. to fight ISIS, my formula could be a major bargaining chip. Smoking costs the U.S. over $1 Trillion per year, but the U.S. represents just 3% of the global cigarette market. The two largest consumers of cigarettes are America’s two biggest “Frenemies,” China and Russia, where over 60% of men in both countries are smokers.
>
> In addition, there has been a worldwide movement to reduce smoking including smoking bans passed in China, Russia, the European Union, the United Arab Emirates and several countries in South America in just the past three years! The problem is, these countries have nothing to offer smokers to break their addiction.
>
> When we talk, I will explain how you and your firm can earn $100 Million from this project just for making a few phone calls.
> Please write back to me to verify that you personally reviewed this email.
>
> My company is currently just a tiny, bankrupt, unknown company sitting on the greatest medical discovery of our lifetime that is worth Billions of dollars! Think of Google when they still operated in a garage.
