For Dems thinking of running in 2008... a few things to consider..
Edited on Fri Dec-17-04 12:13 AM by TruthIsAll
I suggest you take some courses in computer programming.

Learn Microsoft Access. Diebold uses it.

Take a taxpayer-paid trip to Russia. They have some very good programmers over there. They can teach you a thing or two.

Be sure to send Christmas greetings to Wally O'Dell.

And get friendly with Chuck Hagel.

And the next time you go to the ATM and get a receipt, remember, you don't get one when you vote.

And the next time you go shopping and get a receipt, remember, you don't get one when you vote.

And the next time you go to the movies and get a receipt, remember, you don't get one when you vote.

And the next time you go to the gas station and get a receipt, remember, you don't get one when you vote.

And the next time you fly, if you decide to take out life insurance, get a receipt. If the worst happens, maybe they'll recover your wallet, just like they recovered Mohammad Atta's in the WTC rubble.

3. Your ticket stub
serves as a receipt.

2. This would be really funny
if it weren't so true!

Oh, and I'm an expert on Microsoft Access. I'll gladly donate some time to the Dems to teach 'em how to use it. :)

4. Great minds think alike, Clark2008
BTW, I'd love to learn Microsoft Access. I've tried it twice and just cannot get it.

6. Access is one of those programs that's kind of hard
to get, at first, but once you get one part of it, the rest clicks together like it's falling into place.
I work in marketing/public relations, so I use it daily to track leads and build stats - it's one of the more technical aspects of my job (you know, when I'm not schmoozing and writing fluff. ;) )

5. Or, hey! Pass legislation!
We know the 2000 election was stolen....why didn't Kerry, Edwards, Gephardt, Daschle, Clinton, etc. push for legislation before 2004?
