It's time for that uprising -- We Coloradans Want Michael Moore, too!!

"It should be a lot of fun," said Moore. "Most Americans don't vote, and it's not all that hard to understand why. So, I'd like to offer them some incentives to give it a try, just this once. The 50 percent who are the non-voters are never called by pollsters and are usually ignored by candidates. Should just a few percentage points of the 100 million non-voters decide to show up on Nov. 2 -- watch out."

Moore said his goal is to see that over 56 percent of the voting public votes in this election -- something that has not happened since 1968. "It is not the wealthy and the elite who don't vote," added Moore."The non-voters are the poor, the disenfranchised, the single moms and young people. I am calling for a non-voter uprising, led by thousands of campus slackers who proudly sleep 'til noon and who believe papers are for rolling, not reading. They are rightfully cynical, but this year their motto will be: "Bush and Kerry Both Suck -- That's Why I'm Voting for John Kerry!"

1. That sucks

A glaring omission in the tour. I have a feeling that list might be wrong.

[Kanary]

2. That's what I'm hoping. I mean, what's the point of being "swing"

if you don't get the perks like Michael Moore coming to town????

At least Al Franken will be here......... :)

Is your city on that tour list? "Slacker Uprising Tour"......... ~~gigglesnort~~

3. Have you heard how to get tickets for Franken?

I've been checking the blog, but nothing yet.

[Kanary]

4. No tickets for the Tattered Cover LoDo appearance......

just standing in line a L-O-N-G time. :)

I couldn't find out *anything* about the Boulder Theater appearance. Nothing on their website, and nobody could be reached by phone.

sigh.....

Are you in Colorful Colorado? :hi:

Kanary, WHO WANTS TO SEE MICHAEL MOORE, THANKYOUVERYMUCH!!! :)

[tridim]

5. Yep, I'm in Denver.

East edge unfortunately.

[Kanary]

6. OK, something is wrong...... it says a 20-state tour, but there are 16 on

the list. Maybe there's still hope????

Wanna count and check my own fuzzy math? :)

Well, east-edge isn't totally bad...... there's some good people out there. You just have to look a bit harder. :)

So, now, how do we plot to get MM here? :hi:
