24. This should be our ONLY focal point of organization.... 59 MILLION people,
according to the "official" results, voted AGAINST this president. That is MORE THAN AGAINST ANY PRESIDENT IN HISTORY.

THIS IS OUR CAUSE. AND THIS ALONE. WE MUST STOP BEING SO SCATTERED, AND STOP THE INFIGHTING. THIS IS THE ONLY CAUSE. WITHOUT IT WE ARE LOST.

I say we start by ORGANIZING A BLITZ TO EVERY PERSON IN CONGRESS. EVERY SINGLE SECRETARY OF STATE, EVERY GOVERNOR, EVERY LOCAL REPRESENTATIVE. AND WE DON'T STOP SCREAMING ABOUT IT. NOT EVER.

FAX, WRITE LETTERS. ORGANIZE PETITTIONS, EVEN ON THE STREET.

Here in CA that's how we get things on the ballots.... but even that might not work since the voting is alreadt stolen. The goal should be to get our representatives to challenge this, and to wake up.

WE ALSO HAVE TO MAKE THIS A VERY SIMPLE MESSAGE:

NO E-VOTING EVER. PAPER-ONLY BALLOTS. STRICTLY HAND COUNTED, WITH TRANSPARENCY, PUBLIC OVERSIGHT, AND NUMEROUS OBSERVERS - INTERNATIONAL PERHAPS? AND DON'T LET ANYONE WHINE ABOUT THE TIME FACTOR. WHO CARES IF IT TAKES A MONTH TO COUNT? IT'S STILL CHEAPER THAN THE MACHINES.
