Possible 3rd party to break up this two party hypocrisy...A new National Party the "Hope Party"

By SANDRA from Long Beach, CA - Mar 8th, 2008 at 4:25 pm EST

Dear Congressional Black Caucus Member,

Over the last several weeks, voters in CBC districts have spoken with clarity about their choice for President—they overwhelmingly support Barack Obama. But the clear mandate they've laid down is threatened by those in your ranks who as superdelegates may break away from their constituents to vote for Hillary Clinton.

The Congressional Black Caucus has worked hard to protect the political voice of Black Americans. You took the lead in 2000 and 2004, insisting that all votes be counted and that they count. Using your status as a superdelegate in 2008 to undermine the people's will would be a tragic reversal.

I'm writing to ask that you use your power as a superdelegate to amplify the voice of the informed, engaged, and diverse electorate in your district and across Black America, not silence it. I urge you to make it clear that as a superdelegate, you will support the voters' will.

We deserve elections determined by the electorate, not by insiders. And we need you to stand with us, as we speak in a strong voice about who we wish to see as the Democratic nominee.

Sincerely,

[Your name]

MS. Joy FRANK,

Could you please pass this information on to Michael Baisden. The first little girl in the 3 in the morning ad that HRC ran is an avid Barack Obama supporter…..she is 17 y/o now, she was a precinct captain in the Washington Caucuses and she is not a fan of Senator Clinton. She states the she was a bit annoyed the Clinton campaign used her stock footage from eight years ago in an ad that attacks Senator Obama. She suggested that her and Senator Obama do a counter ad together.

A Call To Action

By SANDRA from Long Beach, CA - Feb 6th, 2008 at 3:05 pm EST

Dear Fellow Americans,

We are coming close to an inevitable crossroad in our broken political system, Senator Barack Obama has come as a beacon of light offering us (the United States) hope, change and an opportunity to get past our so called differences and to come together as Americans. America IS a Great Nation but she has been devalued by the status quo political machine, her luster has been dimmed and moral clarity has been diminished. This political year is different from years past because we have been given the rare chance as Americans - to truly participate and be apart of a movement and not just a platform. I am neither 'red' nor 'blue', I am Purple and I am an American, I will not rally around the status quo, business as usual, partisan politics and dirty campaign trickster just because they cry and manipulate their way into a nomination. I love and support Senator Obama with every fiber of my being and now that I have walked in the light I cannot willingly go back into the dark just because there is a darker boogey man (McCain, Romney, Huckabee) hiding in the closet. If HRC somehow manages to get the nomination I vow to actively campaign against both established parties, to actively seek to uphold a viable 3rd party ..."the Hope Party", we will write in our candidate's name on our voting ballot. Senator Obama is the candidate of Hope, he just happens to be a Democrat but he, like Dr. King, JFK, Bobby Kennedy, and countless others have surpassed a label as trivial as democrat he is an American and he is America's candidate, he has shown us that we are 'Purple' and they we can be united as Americans. Today my fellow purple Americans (purplelers) join with me to send the DNC a message, let them know that we are serious and we are willing to register independent and vote HOPE by writing in HOPE in November if the special interested 'super delegates' chose to show moral cowardice and vote for the status quo...She will not ever step foot in the white house, because she will need us to help get her there and we will not squander our Hope ever again. So let HRC keep being the divisive person she is and she and Bill can paint their house white and she can run it but not our beloved Country. No amount of tears in the world will compel us to turn off our lights and blindly go back into the dark.

Yes We Can vote HOPE...write in Obama for President in November no matter what!!! Keep the list growing:

1) Sandra Francis-Boswell

2) Randy Boswell

3) Alana McNeery

4) Lazano Francis
