    Get as many people to make these 3 phone calls. Call GOP contributor and war contractor General Electric Corporation at 800 386 1215 or 203 373 2211 and tell the person who answers, that you want the GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt to get Bush to end the war in Iraq and then Bush resign with Cheney and until that happens you will not buy any GE products and that you will tell your friends about this. Call GOP contributor Rite Aid Corporation at 800-325-3737 and tell the person to get the CEO to get the congress to enact HR 676 Single payer universal health care and repeal Medicare Part D and place the drug benefit in Medicare Part B covering 80% of drugs with no extra premiums, no extra deductibles, no means tests, no coverage gaps, and remove the means test for Medicare Part B and until that happens, you won't buy ANYTHING from Rite Aid Pharmacies and that you will tell your friends about this. Call GOP contributor Wendy's restaurants at 614 764-3553 and Tell the person in public relations that you want their CEO to get the congress to help enact a $10/HR MIN. WAGE into law and until this happens you will not go to a Wendy's Restaurant and that you will tell your friends about this. I set up a progressives forum for progressives and liberals only. Get as many progressives and liberals to join as you can. http://progressives.aceboard.com

    I do not seek donations. You can use the board for free.

    Thanks for your response, Shane. Just to clarify my previous message, the poverty rate in Kentucky is well above the national average and persistent poverty is prevalent all across rural America and the South. Persistent poverty areas are defined as areas that have consistently had a poverty rate of above 20 percent. Eighty-eight percent of those areas are located in rural America and of those 82 percent are in the South. I'm not discounting that the rural NW does not face similar issues, I lived in eastern Oregon for a few years. Columbus has a population of 220 (greater Eureka is 180 TIMES the size of Columbus) ... I think it's an incredible statement that they are leading this competition by hundreds and I hope to see them keep the lead.

    I mostly agree with the last comment, but Eureka IS NOT a large metro area. True, it is the county seat. But it's the county seat of one of California's most rural counties. I want to urge other Californians to help bring John Edwards to Humboldt County. He's going to go to LA and SF anyway. I love both of those places, but that's all people think about when they think about California. And of course, when you say "rural America" people think about the south or the midwest. The rural northwest is almost always forgotten. We hear about the loss of manufacturing jobs, but what about the loss of timber jobs? Eureka is a perfect place to advance his campaign and the progressive movement. This isn't about me getting to see him. I've already seen him before. This is about shedding light on suffering rural areas. We have been working really hard on this competition and even made the front cover of our local newspapers. On a Sunday! Does that sound like a large metro area to you? Politicians go to rural places in the south and midwest. They go to cities in the northwest. But we never get presidential candidates up here, at least not in my lifetime. Fellow Californians... please help Humboldt win.

    i'm baffled by the fact that large metro areas are still trying to win this competition. we, as a progressive movement, should be collectively invested in promoting small town America's access to elected representatives!!! the issues need to be brought to the people who are most deeply effected, and often times devastated, by washington politics. these folks vote overwhelmingly against their own interests and we're never going to win in 2008 with the ego maniacal mentality exhibited in this competition! Eureka, LA, and Ann Arbor - i urge you to start thinking BIG PICTURE. this isn't just about one event. it's not just about YOU getting to meet john edwards. this is about giving non-metro areas access to information that will build power for our movement over the long haul.

  • Thank you for demanding that I come to your town! I'm honored to know that there are thousands of Americans across the country who want to meet with me to discuss the future of our great nation. Thanks to you, Los Angeles is #1 in the competition! We're off to a great start -- but let's not stop here. With your help, we can keep this demand going and build the momentum and excitement we need to bring about real, transformational change. Please ask your friends, family, and coworkers to get on their computers, go to eventful.com/johnedwards, and join your city's Demand as well. If each and every one of you just get one additional person to join the Demand, we'll double our numbers overnight! Thank you again for your support.

  • Congress has backed down to the president and is getting ready to give him another blank check to keep the war going. We have to speak out. As an active “Demander” on Eventful, I am asking you to demand that Congress and the president do the right thing. Californians from Bakersfield to L.A. are taking local action this weekend to directly support the troops and build pressure to end the war. You can find and join an event near you or sign up to organize your own action at: Support The Troops .End The War.com
