However... Barack Obama is only one person, and anyone who thinks that ONE person can change our entire government, our country, and the world has forgotten THEIR OWN role in making change. Therefore, we are gathering outside Obama's office in Chicago for a rally to make sure that CONCRETE demands for change are heard loud and clear... We don't accept that CEO's, Generals and lobbyists should be the ones making demands of President-elect Barack Obama.Students with mounting debt, workers facing layoffs, gays and lesbians denied equality, immigrants threatened by deportation; these are the regular people whose energetic rejection of George Bush and John McCain have ushered in this new, hopeful era of American politics. We have demands to make of the new administration as we celebrate the end of the old. What we want: *PEACE *BRING ALL THE TROOPS HOME NOW! *GAY MARRIAGE *REPEAL THE DEFENSE OF MARRIAGE ACT * IMMIGRANT RIGHTS *END THE RAIDS & DEPORTATIONS *SCHOOLS *REPEAL NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND A NEW DEMAND: *FREE GAZA *END THE OCCUPATION!!! Let's not have our demands stop here, bring any others you might have to the rally! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Internet group address: http://groups.google.com/group/ChicagoMayDay To send e-mail: [email protected] To unsuscribe: [email protected] -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
