GET INVOLVED

Share this movie with a friend.  Encourage your friends to register to vote.

Check out your state’s Democratic Party website.

Put up a lawn or window sign.  (These are usually available at local campaign headquarters.)  When you put up a sign consider placing it where the most people will see it.  Be sure to only place signs on your own property or where you have permission to place the sign.

Display a bumper sticker.  These are also available at local campaign headquarters.

Wear a button or T-Shirt supporting a Democratic candidate.  (Don’t forget about candidates running for senator, representative, and state legislatures.  These offices sometimes make as much (or more) difference than the president.) Remember, when you wear a candidate’s promotional materials you become an ambassador for that candidate, and others may judge the candidate by your actions and behavior.

A great way to get involved is through MoveOn. http://www.moveon.org/
MoveOn is an organization that brings real Americans back into the political process. With over 3.2 million members across America – from carpenters to stay-at-home moms to business leaders – they work together to realize the progressive promise of our country. MoveOn is a way for busy but concerned citizens to find their political voice in a system dominated by big money and big media.

Grassroots Campaigns Inc. is an independent political consulting firm that specializes in running field operations and fundraising for progressive candidates, causes, and organizations. They are running offices nationwide to mobilize support for Senator Obama and elect Democrats across the board. Salaried positions are currently available for those with leadership experience. For more information go to: http://www.grassrootscampaigns.com

MOST IMPORTANTLY – please talk to your friends.
Research shows that face to face personal contact is the best way to get someone to vote.

Organizations that are working to make the world a healthier, safer place for individuals to live:

PIRG stands for Public Interest Research Group.  They work to protect citizens against corporations.  There is one for each state – find yours through the national website at www.uspirg.org

Public Interest Research Groups (PIRGs) take on powerful interests on behalf of the American public, working to win concrete results for our health and our well-being. With a strong network of researchers, advocates, organizers and students in state capitols across the country, they stand up to powerful special interests on issues where powerful special interests stand in the way of reform, on issues such as product safety, identity theft, political corruption, environmental protection, prescription drugs, and voting rights.

The Nature Conservancy is the leading conservation organization working around the world to protect ecologically important lands and waters for nature and people.  Working in all 50 states and more than 30 countries, they have protected more than 117 million acres of land and 5,000 miles of rivers worldwide — and operate more than 100 marine conservation projects globally.
