We need to raise funds to place ads in major newspapers
Perhaps by reaching out to celebrities and other notables with $$$, we can raise enough money (or find someone who cares enough about Democracy to donate the funds)for a media campaign with full page ads in major newspapers- the way Mr. Soros did with his letter before the election. We'll need serious money because these need to be placed in major newspapers plus we'll need to have someone create the piece for us. It has to be factual, informative, credible and clearly convey what is going on, with links to the various groups needing money, excerpts from major stories, resources so they can research this for themselves, etc. It also has to be non-partisan- we're talking about the hijacking of Democracy, right- not overturning the election.

Anyone have any idea how to go about this? We're talking a major media campaign. If we could time it in with a non-profit somehow, and have the donations be a tax deduction (not sure how we would do this on short notice), that would be great as well.

1. Contact everyone
who read the Constitution at Cooper Union during the RNC in NYC. They might be interested.

2. Thankye Jaysus. They finally heard my pleas.
Maybe you should contact someone we all trust. Bev Harris. She's made a lot of media contacts by now. So she can steer us in the right direction.
