Urgent Action: Tell NBC To Put All Remaining Candidates Back In The Debates
We have two advocacy missions for our participants this weekend. The first is very easy and we are hoping everyone will do it, to submit an action to send a message to NBC demanding that they all remaining candidates back in the debates.

The second is to do anything you can to support the Kucinich call for a recount in New Hampshire, so please read on and we'll tell you why we think this is so important.
How Dare NBC Presume To Determine Which Candidates Are Worth Hearing From?
We are sick and tired up to here of having the corporate media with their fist on the scales during our election process. It is a self fulfilling fix to feature certain candidates over others in their coverage, and then crowd out those cheated of effective visibility in the first place.
All candidates who meet the criteria must be allowed to participate and be given fair and equal time. If candidates want to drop out, that is their personal decision, as quite a number already have. But it is outrageous, undemocratic and unpatriotic for NBC to play judge, jury and executioner at this still early juncture. We have ready seen multiple huge shifts in expected candidate rankings in just the first caucus and first actual primary election. They can project a winner in a particular race AFTER all the votes have been cast, not before.
If the voice who you believe best represents you on the issues is being excluded from the debates, we need to tell NBC to back off, and stop meddling with our democracy. So please submit the action page above, and you can also call their programming department on the phone at 212-664-4444.
Why A Recount In New Hampshire Is So Important
We've barely completely the first actual primary election in this cycle and already there are huge suspicions on the blogs and on the radio about the veracity of the results. Maybe it's because there is so must hard evidence after the fact that the last two presidential elections were stolen outright.
As reported by election protection watch groups, in particular there appears to be a consistent pattern of discrepancies between the optical scan counted and machine counted votes.
These doubts must be dispelled.
If we want people to turn out and actually vote in record numbers like a healthy functioning democracy, people must have confidence to believe that their votes will actually count. There must be a recount in this case, and every other such case, and one of two things will happen. Either 1) the count will be demonstrated accurate, in which case that confidence is enhanced, or 2) we uncover problems and we start fixing them now. Either way, this is a very worthy endeavor.
Only Dennis Kucinich has demonstrated the leadership on the Democratic side to call for this needed recount, even though another candidate, who we do not need to name, with tens of millions in the bank, could have it done for much less money under NH law because they were within 3 points of the declared winner. If you can do so, won't you make a contribution to help finance this recount.
Kucinich Donations:
https://www.usalone.com/kucinich_constitution.php
The special edition Kucinich campaign pocket constitutions have arrived from the printer, they are just gorgeous, and we will be working all weekend to ship them out. You can have one too with your donation of just $100 on the page above. And if you can contribute $1000 Dennis will personally autograph your copy along with a personal thank you letter suitable for framing.
Yes, why is it that Dennis Kucinich and Dennis Kucinich only is out there demonstrating leadership on absolutely every issue? What would we do without him? Why don't we just all vote for the candidate we really like on the issues, and stop letting the corporate media pick the front-running horses before even the first race.
New Hampshire Deputy Secretary of State, David M. Scanlan, was quoted yesterday as saying.
"Perhaps the best thing that could happen for us is to have a recount to show the people that the votes that were cast on election day were accurately reflected in the results."
We agree.
Let there be no doubt in anyone's mind that every vote was counted, recorded and reported. Nothing will strengthen our democracy more than the certainty that the process is working and faithful.
And for those concerned about the expense, what is the expense of putting the wrong people in and getting saddled with a two trillion dollar (already) illegal and generational foreign occupation and quadrupled oil prices? We say election recounts are true democracy on the cheap.
Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and distribute this alert to everyone you know.
