Hello Powerful People:
Welcome to the 15th issue of the Power to the People Committee,
Cynthia McKinney / Rosa Clemente Campaign Update.
Last week’s statement, issued in the wake of the $81 billion give-away to AIG is now seeming more prescient every day, with another $700 billion give-away proposed for the very bankers who’s gambling in the derivatives market created the crisis. Meanwhile we watch as both parties in Congress continue to ignore a related foreclosure crisis that is putting more and more people on the streets every day.
We hope you will use this week to empower people in your community, to share the questions Cynthia raises and the proposals for ‘fundamental change’ she identifies and use the following piece to let folks know that we do have a choice in 2008. Ours is a real choice, not one between banker-financed candidates parroting policies already set inmotion to destroy this planet and its peoples. We get to choose between peace and war, between justice and avarice, between voting for our highest hopes and aspirations, rather than merely against our worst fears.
Until next time,
— The Campaign Team
