Suggestions, please

It's time for me to put together my Voice of the People Letter for March, Jan. was social security, Feb. was election fraud.....I need suggestions for March...there is so much, I'm having a problem sorting my mind to chose just one subject - I only get 350 words - once a month, so I have to make them count, help.

I bow to the experts on board....

2. I agree

the main stream media lack of investigative reporting and follow-up on stories related to the continued disasters our foreign policy has caused.

4. I also agree...

Talk about the trend towards the democratization of publishing and newsmaking and how this threatens the establishment...

3. I'm not an expert, but it would be good to investigate where

Pro-Life is going to go, or is it just going to be the same old S--T. Are they going to respond to being shown as the hypocrits they are, adapt, progress to the next, become more honestly pro-Life (i.e. anti-War, anti-Death Penalty, pro-Economic Justice etc.)? Now is a good time for them to really change; is there anyone in their organizations who is capable of leading the needed change? I would like to know.

5. I've been working on this one in my head for a while now,

Edited on Mon Feb-21-05 05:50 PM by EC

have made a few notes on points I want to hit, but in the area where I am, I have to get it right, because it is a strong issue. So I'm not really prepared for this one yet...but I have been collecting on it....

On edit: one of the angles I've been working on with this one, is exactly what it is they want? In my experiance with talking to pro-life people, they don't know...I ask them how they would make it illegal, who would be prosecuted, what the sentence or fine should be, etc. And they start backing off, with dumb statements like, well, it's the woman's choice, but she shouldn't do it, so we should make it illegal, Okay, what exactly does that mean? yada, yada, yada....So I think that is one of the talking points I want to hit...

7. Its a good tactic to begin with getting them to describe what they want.

There are probably outcomes that both "sides" share.
