8. The people still have power, the power of numbers
1. We have the power of numbers and must find
legal ways to start using it.
We must focus our very considerable buying power to promote
companies that champion the cause of Democracy.
Doing so must become a religion.

Email does nothing.
Marching in the street has had no effect that I can see.
We need to set out goals that real people can achieve.

2. We must organize, organize, organize.
People must start meeting in person.
If they find a way to make the Internet dangerous for truth tellers,
most of these people we are talking to on sites such as this would
be lost to us. I attend and organize meet-ups whenever I can.
You need real people to make a difference.

3. Our number one goal has got to be to absolutely
make sure every vote is counted. We must insist on paper ballots
and a bipartisan tally team at every polling place. No exceptions.

The power of the people is still our best weapon.
We must use it while we still can.
