I recommended (on air) Obama's website for "directly" communicating with him, jobs, etc:<BR/><B>http://www.change.gov/</B><BR/><BR/>BUT, was unable to mention the other one. One I have been looking for, that has a strong coalition of well-known, long-established Progressive voices in America. That will undoubtedly attract a huge response; therefore carry a strong message to the administration, of issues that we are committed to having addressed by them. One thing we learned from the GOP is that a unified, strong voice is necessary. Only now, it will come from the people!<BR/><BR/>I implore youth to understand that voting alone doesn’t make a democracy. In order to have integrity, a democracy requires citizen participation (even when it's tedious and boring) otherwise; we end up with... what we have.<BR/><BR/><B>http://bailoutmainstreet.com/</B><BR/><BR/><B>Check out the signatories!!
