Vote for peace
Every choice for peace is really a vote for peace whether anyone is tallying the votes or not. I was so pleased to be able to cast my vote for peace where the results would be tallied. Change.org is the sponsor of this vote; its results allegedly go straight to President-Elect Obama.
The Campaign to establish a U. S. Department of Peace sent me this in an email:
Vote for Peace at Change.org and Help Spread the Word The website www.Change.org is holding an online event through January 15, 2009 calling for the "Top 10 Ideas for America," which they will present to the Obama Administration on Inauguration Day. Change.org says, "We will then build a national campaign to advance each idea in Congress, marshaling the resources of Change.org, MySpace, and our dozens of partner organizations and millions of combined members." Imagine our campaign with expanded support like that! The idea to "Appoint Secretary of Peace in Department of Peace and Nonviolence" is currently in FIRST PLACE in the category "Other" and second place overall. We need your help to keep it there all the way through January 15. Visit the site today and vote for peace, then use their "Email a Friend" link to spread the word. Obviously, I’ve sent this to everyone I know.
Will you join us please and cast your vote for peace today?
