Dear Mr Moore,

We produce the Australian TV travel series Getaway and will be filming a story on the US presidential campaign this year. Getaway is Australia's highest rating travel program and has been running for 15 years. We will be sending a crew of four to the US from May 5 to 18, 2008.

We are seeking to film with at least two different candidates who will be campaigning during those weeks. Our crew and presenter, Ben Dark, would be interested in shadowing you and Dr Susan Block on your campaign tour for 2 to 3 days. The story will show Ben Dark joining candidates out on the campaign trail, show a personal account of the election race, and visit a cross section of communities and towns in the US.

I have attached a profile on the show, you can also visit our website http://getaway.ninemsn.com.au/ for further info on the show.

I would be happy to discuss the opportunity with you further. I am based in Sydney Australia and can be reached on +61 2 9965 2871 or via this email. Alternatively you could email me a convenient time and phone number to reach you on.

I look forward to hearing from you.

With thanks,
Penny
