Here is a sample of brilliant campaigning - per "politicalinaction.com"-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Obama Registering People At Gas Stations in OhioPretty genius effort. They did this around 8 cities in the state. In my local city of Toledo, the event was a huge hit according the local news station WTOL.Think about it.....people are basically stationary for 5 minutes. If you hit low income areas of town, you capitalize on their anger at the pumps and you give them an avenue to voice their displeasure in November. Given that gas was $1.25 before oilmen Bush and Cheney took office, and now it is $4 a gallon, and John McCain is going to continue those same energy policies, pretty good chances they'll be voting Democratic.Everyone must get gas. Probably the only place in America where people of all political leanings go.....and a great way to nail unregistered voters. Now, we could use this in a couple of ways.
1. FUNDRAISING - have a combo car wash and voter registration - donate money to Obama
2. OBAMA WORKS - a bigger statement to the community: *FREE* car wash in the name of Obama Works (see www.whyobamaworks.com), combined with voter registration & invites to meetings, the web site, solicit donations, etc. This would be great with T-shirts and local media notification. What a great statement for the community. We could make it a big event - important thing is to display our faith in Barack Obama and his vision for America.
If we can find organizers, I will help -- any takers? RSVP: D. Ames - ladyolove@hotmail.com
