2. $200,000- one dollar for each of the homeless veterans John is speaking for

from the blog:


John has recently been giving voice to the moral outrage that is 200,000 of our own veterans who are currently homeless - men and women who have served our country nobly and honorably and yet have been left literally out in the cold by our government. Even worse is the tidbit that more than twice that number of our veterans experience homelessness during at least some portion of the year...

This IS a moral outrage and I am glad to see that John Edwards has been speaking up about it every chance he gets, including during his "whistle stops", during the debates, and even when he appeared on Letterman. As a matter of fact, John's been so vocal about this travesty that even Bill O'Reilly himself has been calling John out; it seems BillO doesn't believe there are homeless veterans.

So let's all join in to help give John Edwards a continuing voice in this election so he can keep giving voice to the voiceless like those 200,000 Homeless Veterans that he speaks so passionately about.

The Fundraising date is set for Wednesday January 30, 2008 - the day before the Los Angeles debates - two days before the end of the month and less than a week before Super-whatever-it's-being-called-now Tuesday.

Please join us in helping John keep his voice loud and clear during this rough and tumble campaign season!

Pax!

[2hip]

23. Thanks for your interest!

If you don't want to wait until Wednesday, you can donate now and it will be applied to the $200,000 goal. Otherwise just keep an eye open for one of my reminder posts.

[FlyingSquirrel]

21. Ah, FINALLY a goal that can actually be met!

Count me in, as always

[PresidentObama]

22. After seeing him in person tonight, I will give every dime I can.

No candidate has more passion than Senator Edwards.

He's my candidate.

And I'm damn proud.

[FirstLight]

24. Yay!

I actually get paid this week, so I should be able to send something ... (after rent and groceries, ack!)

Hey, quick question...how do I "kick" a thread? I don't have enough posts to rec yet, but can I give a kick?

[Biscottiii]

28. I kind of gave my little morsel off a fixed income

just day before yesterday. I wish you well. Just wish I could add to your goal, too. Want you to know that my heart is in the right place, I've donated more to him than any candidate in my life.

Go John! Keep Running and We the People will do whatever we can -

Morsel by Morsel.

[2hip]

35. You can still be a help without having to donate

I'll be starting a new donation thread later today and if you can give it some kicks when you see it, that would be great!

[indigoblue]

29. The link to your grassroots donation page is broken...

I would love to chip in something tomorrow.

34. Thanks for the heads up

I'm an HTML doofus but I'll start a new thread later today to kick off the fund drive and I'll make sure the link works.

[blondie58]

42. thanks for posting!

I received this email from John earlier and I was thinking of donating, but this makes my meager contribution better. We have to get the word out. While speaking with a Democratic volunteer earlier, we shared views on the candidates and her take on Edwards was - "he doesn't stand a chance." To that, I say NONSENSE! I know that I will be voting for him next Tuesday.

[vanbean]

43. Got the e-mail today from the campaign

and already donated. Wish I had been on DU beforehand.

[Shadowsmith]

44. Keep up the good work.

I have donated to John in the past and will do so again for this.
