Voters for Due Process

It's not too late to sign the Michigan Demands Representation peition in support of MIchigan voters, if you haven't already done so.  This is not an online petition; you have to print it, sign it and mail it in. I printed out and made copies to send to friends and relatives in Florida to sign in support of their fellow Michigan voters, who share the unpleasant experience of having been disregarded by the Democratic Party.

Here's a statement of the MDR's mission:

To Protect Our Civil Liberties and Our Voting Rights

Have Our Votes Counted and Our Delegates Seated in
Accordance with the Certified Presidential Primary
Results of January 15, 2008

Honor Previous Generations Who Gave Their Lives to
Ensure Our Voting Privileges

Ensure and Protect the Right to Votes and Have Those
Votes Counted for Future Generations

Here's an excerpt from the petition's statement:

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is not recognizing the voice and the votes of millions of democrats who set aside time to participate in a democratic process. The
failure of the DNC to recognize Michigan's Democratic voters and to seat our delegates based on the January 15th primary is counter to democratic principles and is an act of disenfranchisement.

as a floridian, i can empathize. (0.00 / 0)
obama's promise to "do what's right by florida voters" is just like his other promises - he has no intention of keeping it.

Barack Obama's election proves that any male can grow up to be president, provided he's willing to use misogyny as a campaign strategy.
yeh, (0.00 / 0)

BO seems to go back on his word a lot.  Remember when he responded favorably to McCain's invitation to join him in town hall forums and directly engage the electorate?  BO said he was willing to meet with McCain anytime, anywhere.  Why has he backed down?  I think it would be good for his campaign.  He wouldn't do the forums with Hillary either.  He wouldn't do a re-vote in FL and MI.  This guy just doesn't like democracy.

Also, I should have pointed out (0.00 / 0)

that you don't have to be a Michigan voter to sign this petition.  There's one for Michigan residents, and another one for all American voters from any state.  You'll see when you click the petition link.

"Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. When you stumble, keep faith. When you?re knocked down, get right back up. And NEVER listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on."
