/With four weeks to go until Election Day, we are ratcheting up the
pressure to get Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala into the Commission on
Presidential Debates' televised debates. Read on for an update from Fair
Debates Organizer Carl Gibson about upcoming actions in KY and NY:/

*/Dear Friend,/*

Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala are being unfairly locked out of the
debates by the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD) . . . but we
refuse to stay silent in the face of this affront to democracy. Instead,
we're Occupying the CPD!

Presidential Debate

at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky on Thursday, October 11!*

Occupy activists are organizing some telling street theatre to show how
Paul Ryan's austerity plan will balance the budget on the backs of the
poor - literally. *
*

We need as many people as possible to get our message out at the VP
debate Thursday night.*Here's how to get involved:*

*What: *Paul Ryan "Austerity Wagon" protest with Cheri Honkala*
Where: *317 W. Main Street, Danville, KY (6 blocks from Centre campus)*
When: *Thursday Oct. 11, 7 PM (action starts at 8 PM sharp)

*Click here to RSVP and we will contact you about how to get involved!*

We aren't counting on Joe Biden or the debate's tightly-controlled
moderator to talk about the failure of austerity - or any of the other
issues Americans really need to hear about. Instead, we're taking things
into our own hands*.* Speaking of which...

Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York on Tuesday, October 16!*

There's no way the Commission on Presidential Debates would willingly
allow Jill Stein on the same stage as Obama and Romney to speak about
the issues they want to avoid... so on *Tuesday, October 16th at 4 PM*,
Occupy Wall Street activists are teaming up with other groups, including
Money Out/Voters In and United NY, for a 99% March on the Debates.

The march will start at 4 PM in the heart of Hempstead, just 1.5 miles
from Hofstra University, and will be joined by the Big Bird Bloc, an
army of activists dressed as America's favorite Sesame Street character
to protest recent threats to public media. *Here's how to get involved:*

*What: *99% March on the Debates with Jill Stein
*Where: *Hempstead, NY
*When: *Tuesday Oct. 16, 4 PM

*Click here to RSVP and we will contact you about how to get involved!*

As badly as the establishment political parties and the corporate media
want to ignore and undermine us, we'll show them over the next few weeks
through our voices and our actions that we're stronger than ever, that
we're fed up with the two-party duopoly on our Democracy, and that we,
the people, want a White House that works for us instead of Wall Street.

Thanks for everything you do. See you in the streets!
