[USMA:40854] Political Action

[Victor Jockin]

P.S.  I have heard personally from Paul Trusten on the issue of the food 
lobby and other matters, which I appreciate, and I strongly applaud his 
ongoing commitment and individual efforts.  If there's anyone doing more to 
advance this cause in the US today, I've yet to learn of that person.  But 
I'm asking more about the kind of larger-scale, campaign-relevant (i.e., 
contributions, campaign advertising) that are required to have a realistic 
chance of influencing federal legislation today, particularly when there are 
organizations that have such assets and oppose change.
