2 links to sink bushCorp '04 - please add yours!
My 91 year old mother has voted in every local & national election since 1932 - NEVER for a Democrat. She does, however, have deep environmental and anti-imperialistic concerns. I recently printed out the entire text of Robert Kennedy Jr.'s Rolling Stone article detailing and lambasting bushCorp's criminal anti-environmental tactics, along with 2 PNAC summaries from "Project For The OLD American Century" website (mom doesn't do computers). A week later I called to ask if she still intended to vote repuke in 2004, and sure enough she said she could NOT vote for the junta and was looking into Wesley Clark. I've had similar successes with other non-Dems with the simple click of mouse, forwarding the links.

I believe in "keep it simple", especally when asking republicans, indies, and undecideds to analyze bushCorp's validity - they're not going to read a book or listen to long political rants. Considering the values and thought process of most "swing" voters, I strongly believe that these two links are the most powerful tools we have to bring them over. If enough Americans were to read the Kennedy article and a few PNAC truths, we would not only win the White House but carry big Congressional coat tails as well. Here are the links:

http://oldamericancentury.org/

I urge all DU'ers to get this material before as many eyes as you can - post & forward the links, print out the key articles. If those who bash Dem candidates here would expend half of that negative energy doing this instead, we wouldn't have to worry about "who's unelectable", because the junta would become totally UNELECTABLE!

Finally, please post to this thread your "most powerful tools" links/articles for efficiently getting inside the heads of those crucial Indies, Undecideds, and even registered Pugs.

1. Awareness of PNAC is key
Edited on Tue Dec-02-03 05:04 PM by rucky
Preach it like a 12-step fundie!

PNAC is their vision in their own words. All of the actions of this administration support their doctrine. This isn't an item that's up for debate or denial.

Most Americans don't want an empire - they just want to raise their families in safety & good health.

2. Bernard Wiener - my role model!
Great primer link - hadn't read it in a long time.

Here's another 10-in-one link tool on the terrorism & war myths:

3. Where was PNAC exposure in selectiontheft 2000?
I've never understood why Gore or the DNC didn't raise holy hell over PNAC. It's my understanding that the PNAC website was right there like a sitting duck since 1997. Someone know something I don't on this??

4. Phew! Lengthy, but..
well worth the read. I love the comparison of modern day robber barons to European Fascism, Mussolini, et al. The Right is constantly comparing Iraq to post-war Germany. Yet they don't want you to remember pre-war Germany.
