Most pilots are not regulars on social media or the forums and will not even be aware of it.
Key to the whole enterprise --
Does a candidate who was not nominated have access to ALPA's e-mail system?
Oh, I don't doubt for a second it is going to be a hard uphill battle.
To your first point, the attachment can help. Print it, trim it, and leave it on the yoke clip so the next gal or guy will have something on which to write her or his flight number, taxi clearance, ATIS identifier, grocery list, etc.
To your second, I am not sure. However, I do recall three people who were not running sent out an endorsement email for DeRosa. So I would venture a guess and say maybe.
