FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:



ATTENTION FLORIDA DAYBOOK/ASSIGNMENT EDITORS



Republican Presidential Candidate Andy Martin holds a Palm Beach news conference today, Monday, June 20th to release copies of his freedom-of-information requests to Minnesota authorities concerning Rep. Michele Bachmann’s foster care operations



Martin says Bachmann appears to be grossly exaggerating her foster care experiences



Martin says Bachmann’s “free ride” to distort and exaggerate is over



Martin says his strenuous efforts to focus attention on Herman Cain’s anti-Muslim hysteria may have impacted Cain’s performance in the CNN debate



Andy Martin is one of the Republican Party’s most respected cyberwarriors and has waged a relentless Internet campaign against President Barack Obama over the past seven years



(PALM BEACH, FL)(June 20, 2011) Corruption-fighting Republican Presidential Candidate Andy Martin holds a Palm Beach, Florida news conference today, June 20th at 4:30 P.M. to announce that he has asked Minnesota authorities to release Rep. Michele Bachmann’s foster care files and financial records.



“When I announced my candidacy for president in Concord, New Hampshire in December, 2010 I said I would be ‘driving the agenda’ of the 2012 campaign (see link below to L. A. Times),” Martin says. “The issues have changed and the faces have changed, and I am still in the driver’s seat. My relentless focus on Herman Cain’s anti-Muslim bigotry paid off when he was forced to respond in the CNN debate and Cain dug himself into a deeper hole.



“Because of mainstream media efforts to marginalize my candidacy I have had to adjust my campaign strategy, a change which I will discuss in detail in a policy memo later today.



“Today I shift my focus from Cain, who is deflating rapidly, to Michelle Bachmann, who is her own self-inflating machine and needs to be brought back to reality. ‘Reality’ is not powder puff interviews with Sean Hannity on Fox News. Reality is a presidential campaign in which her relentless distortions and exaggerations are challenged by one of her opponents, me.



“In my reaction to the CNN debate I was the first investigator to point out that Bachmann was exaggerating her ‘foster care family’ (see blog links below). A CBS News blog has now picked up my concerns, as other media have also done (see link below). Today we take our Bachmann investigation to the next level.



“I am asking Minnesota authorities to release all of Bachmann’s foster care files, personal and financial. I am also asking Bachmann to waive any privacy concerns or rights she may have as to her own information. I am not seeking the identities of the children. Representative Bachmann has built a national political presence based on gross distortions and inflammatory exaggerations. (The requests will be released at my news conference.)



“Representative Bachmann can run, but she can’t hide from the facts and the truth. While we continue to monitor Herman Cain’s implosion, we are now focusing on presenting the truth about Michele Bachmann.



“If I can drop my opponents one-by-one, the candidates’ list will get shorter and shorter,” Martin will remark in his news conference. “I’m in this to win, and I will win one way or the other, using lawful, legitimate and logical tactics. My stock in trade has always been a search for the truth and efforts to find the facts, as Barack Obama can attest. Today we add Michele Bachmann to the list. The mainstream media and right-wing colonies have been giving Bachmann a ‘pass.’ Bachmann’s free ride has ended.”
