I collect refrigerator magnets and I was really disappointed that I didn’t ever get one for Obama during the campaign. I did get some buttons though. I got them from the MoveOn.org group that worked to get Obama elected. You’d think they’d be out celebrating and relaxing by now but no, they are already working on the next step to help President Obama fulfill his campaign promises.
Here is a statement regarding their new campaign:
Barack Obama has said many times that he can’t deliver universal health care or a sweeping clean energy policy on his own. We all need to do our part.
So we’ve launched a campaign called “Real Voices for Change” to make Obama’s progressive mandate impossible to ignore. We’re organizing grassroots events. We’re putting together a major ad campaign. And MoveOn members are already out gathering messages of support from their neighbors.
We’re going to make sure the voice of the people speaks louder than the HMO lobbyists and oil companies.
But in order to hit the ground running the minute Obama becomes president, we need resources now. And that means we all need to help out. Please chip in $12 or more today, and we’ll send you an Obama shirt in time for Inauguration Day.
Make sure you get your t-shirt, visit the MoveOn.org website and be a voice for change.
