Coalition of Natural Allies

REMEMBER WE CANNOT OUT SPEND CORPORATE MONEY!

We must organize the various special interest groups such as women's & civil rights, environment, unions, dog lovers (don't laugh), etc, etc, etc such as MADD (mothers against drunk drivers), etc, etc.

This coalition promises to work for each group’s main issue;

Women rights; equal pay
Civil rights; no discrimination
MADD; effective laws to curb drunk driving, 19-20,000 die each year because of drunk drivers including about 6,500 children CHILDREN
WHERE IS THE WAR ON DRUNK DRIVERS?
Gay rights; no discrimination because of choice or barrier to gay unions
Unions; card check
Dog Lovers; ban puppy mills that pull vocal cords with dentist picks. Mobilize dog lovers and we may not need anyone else to move a progressive agenda?

Now, add your progressive group to this list and there are many.

Then we move into the primary process, vet the candidates against the issues the coalition members want. Finally, we have a progressive that has pledges on paper to support progressive issues and we must hold the candidates feet to the fire.

Comes the conservative ads on TV, mail, our emails and phones, doesn’t matter we are joined by our mutual interest. Promise me you will do something about puppy mills and you have my vote, promise a union that they will card check laws and you have the union vote, and on and on and ON.

There is more to this idea but let’s start to think together about how we can overcome the power of corporate money in all forms of advertising.

Maybe I should start a party called “The Puppy Mill Party”
