<div><font face="Arial">I gave $ 20.00 , myself and my wife at $ 10.00 each, and
we plan to do it again next month and every month through the election in
March.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">My wife and I and most of us on this
list are not well off by any means and at times struggle, but it is
really rare that we get an oppurtunity like this. We know David Green and know
that he is " un-bossed and un-bought " as Shirley Chisholm use to say.
</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">He is one of us, and the only way we are ever going to be
able to improve things for the better in this country is to encourage and
support Working people like David Green, who has a verified record in this
community of speaking truth to power and doing the right thing, to run for
public office.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">Win or lose, David will have an impact on the issues
discussed and debated in the campaign. That is no small matter in corporate
controlled American politics in this day and age that controls " the parameters
of acceptable debate ".</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">But the fact is that David has a good chance to win, but
only if we help out the best we can, and not allow the corporate
propoganda of " oh he can't win " influence us into apathy or support for a
corporate funded candidate.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">This has become an all too familiar phenomena
in recent years with disasterous results, ie. many democrats are
indistinguishable from republicans. </font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">The primaries are the best oppurtunity to both get the
importent issues discussed and the right people elected.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">So please, do what ever you can to help David Green
between now and the election in March.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial">My 2-cents for what it is worth.</font></div>

night at Channing-Murray Foundation in Urbana, representatives of local
progressive groups met to inform each other of their activities and goals. I
spoke about my politics, and I also spoke about the “credibility barrier”
among those who believe that I cannot be a viable candidate because I do not
have the funding that my opponents have. <u></u><u></u></span></div>

barrier will have to be overcome, <b>and can be overcome</b>, by word of mouth
and social media. It will only take 15,000 votes in a district of 500,000 of
voting age for me to win this election. You can help by talking to five people
and asking each of them to talk to five other people, and so on. Ask them to
