You can contribute > here: http://actblue.com/page/lessig > > (if he elects not to run, the donations go to Creative Commons, so it's > a no-lose proposition). > > You can find more information here: www.draftlessig.org and here > www.lessig08.org > > This is an extraordinary opportunity for our community to make its voice > heard in Washington.
