Forward Widely!
Hi all,
This is Ashley Smith, the Vermont Coordinator for the Nader/Camejo 2004
Campaign. The Nader/Camejo campaign is getting underway across the
country and we in Vermont need to get on board.
We are facing a crisis of democracy in our society. As Nader's website
(www.votenader.org) states "the Bush Administration and the Democratic
Party, in varying extremes, are putting the interests of their
corporate paymasters before the interests of the people." Both parties
seem united behind an agenda of profit, war and occupation. The
Nader/Camejo ticket is the way to voice our dissent against the two
corporate parties and build a real alternative for the people.
Come to an organizing meeting to help get the Vermont Campaign rolling
on Monday, August 23 at 7pm in the McClure Multigenerational Center in
Burlington. The address is 241 North Winooski Ave. This first meeting
will be in Burlington, but we will need to hold meetings in other parts
of the state in the coming weeks.
We will discuss and plan all sorts of things. The immediate priority is
ensuring that we have enough petition signatures to get Nader and
Camejo on the ballot as independents. Some people have already been
petitioning for the campaign and collected hundreds of signatures.
Bring any petitions you have to the meeting or send them along with
others. Congratulations to all of you for your work so far. We will
have no problem getting the needed 1,000 signatures, but the larger the
cushion the better. Our goal should be 2,000 signatures. So we will
organize teams of petitioners for next few weeks.
At the meeting we should also brainstorm ideas for the
campaign--fundraising events, houseparties, speaking engagements,
tabling, panels, video screenings etc. People should be creative and
come up with any ideas to raise the profile of Nader and Camejo.
Send this along to anyone you think would be interested in building the
campaign. If you have any questions, feel free to email me. See you at
the meeting!
