Use Your Power -- ChooseTheBlue!

[Tennessee Gal]

Corporations are as important as politicians in American Politics.

You know what party a politician supports. Do you know which political party a company supports?

ChooseTheBlue tells you what corporations donated to political parties.

If each American who voted for John Kerry spends $100 in 2005 on a Blue company instead of a Red company, we can move $5 Billion away from Republican companies and add $5 Billion to the income of companies who donate to Democrats.

This will be noticed! Choose where you buy ... and make a difference!!!

11. Not according to this site

It's just the opposite. Which is right?

12. I went to the site. The choices are extremely limited in electronics.

Fortunately, I do like Sony.

However, there's got to be more choices than that, surely. Have all the corporations gone to the dark side?

I also checked the other categories. Sony shows up a lot, and they don't even have a listing for where Kenmore stands politically, although Maytag is definitely red. Just not enough choices in all the categories and lots of cross-referencing among the categories themselves. This site needs a lot more info before it becomes truly useful to a lot of people.

edit: oops, my mistake on contact info. It's [e-mail]

13. Kenmore is a Sears brand. n/t
