Edited on Sun Aug-24-08 06:46 AM by Skidmore
I want to hear the Democratic party and our candidates emphasize (I know Obama has addressed these issues but now he has help):

1) We will honor the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and will restore them. Period. All of them.
2) We will end this war and pay for it, and the sacrifice will not be borne solely by our soldiers and their families or on the backs of the poor. There will be shared sacrifice, in dollars and material.
3) We will respect the worker and expect corporations to be good citizens. Because they have been accorded the rights of personhood under the law, they will be treated as citizens under the law.
4) This country is not for sale to anyone. We will restore stewardship in our government agencies and not use them as political arms of the Executive. Corruption will not be tolerated in any form.
5) We will care for the least among us because it is our duty.
6) We will preserve the land and conserve energy and resources. We will use them wisely.

1. have you talked to anyone in the campaign?
you should talk to a field organizer--they can reassure you & pass information up the line to the higher ups in the campaign. all the things you want are what our party is all about!!!!
