[Sosfbay-discuss] FWD: Clean Money Aug. 19, 20; also Aug 26, 27

[JamBoi]

I think this is from the local Clean Money Working Group (by way of the
local DFA mailing list).  I believe Clean Money along with Public
financing of elections and Fraud-free voting is one of the most
important things we can do to 'spread democracy' and Free and Fair
Elections to the U.S.of A.

A Million Votes for Peace!

Hi all,

1.) Volunteers are needed for a brief flurry of leafleting at the END
of
these Ira Ruskin Town Hall meetings:

Saturday, August 19, 10-11:30 a.m., Menlo Park
Sunday, August 20, 1:00-2:30 p.m., Palo Alto

On August 20 we also want to collect names of potential volunteers, as
Clean Money is the topic of the meeting! People should be leaving the
meeting ready to volunteer.  Please bring a clipboard or two if you
have
them, with pen attached.  NOTE: Ira Ruskin requests no leafleting prior
to the meeting because it is an official state function and he should
not appear to be lobbying for Prop 89.  Contact person for this event
is
Ira Fischer, irafischer at msn.com.  Full details at bottom.

2.) PALO ALTO FESTIVAL OF THE ARTS:
      University Avenue (at High/Ramona)
      August 26 and 27, 10am-6pm

Volunteers needed for all (2 hour) shifts. If you are new to tabling,
tell me to pair you with me or someone else experienced. I can be there
for any shift to pair with new people.
Schedule is on this web page:
http://hengstrom.net/PAAWF.html

3.) Want to do something for Clean Money today?  You can:
-write to Angelides (info at Angelides.com); thank him for supporting Prop
89
-write a letter to the editor about Prop 89
-make copies of the attached flyers for Aug. 26

4.) Next Palo Alto Area Working Group meeting:
      	Tuesday, August 22, 7:00pm, introductory video at 6:45

Trent's paragraph full of key phrases:

Vote Yes on Proposition 89, the California Clean Money and Fair 
Elections Act, to end the crisis of corruption in California and make 
politicians accountable to voters instead of big money donors.  It will

level the playing field so that new people with good ideas have a
chance 
to win, even if they're not rich or well-connected to wealthy special 
interest groups and lobbyists.  Political campaigns need public 
financing and contribution limits so that elections are decided by 
ideas, not by money.  Vote Yes on Prop 89.
