    WHAT: FIRST EVER UNITY08 VOLUNTEER CONFERENCE CALL

    San Diego Members Organize for Unity08

    Unity08 members Charles and Alicia Foster of Del Mar, CA, threw a cocktail party to tell friends, neighbors and colleagues about Unity08 with big success. Doug Bailey and Bob Bingham attended to meet guests and discuss the movement. Many were happy to know about a better option in this year's race and are now enthusiastically onboard, telling their friends and colleagues about Unity08.

    Do you know people who would like to know about Unity08? Why not organize a get-together and let them know?

    In yet another sign that partisan politics as we know it is dead, this headline says it all: 

    When the parties become so gridlocked they are not only competing with each other, but now suing themselves, something is very, very wrong.
     

    Your ideas make a difference

    Over the past week, I have given several ideas of what we can each do to get active in our local communities and online to help Unity08 reach its goals to relight America's torch.  See those blogs here, here, here, and here.
    I have several others, but I'm interested in what you think.  Have a great idea?  Let us know:

    Bobbie's Story: What we can all do for Unity08

    I promised more ideas on how to help Unity08, but first I wanted to share an email I received this morning:

    Want to help? Want a job? Here's How...

    Unity08 needs your help, and that help can take many different forms.  We have a few main tasks right now: recruit more members and raise Unity08's profile (those efforts feed into one another), and get on the ballot.  Do you want to help on a full time basis?  Check out our jobs page at unity08.com/jobs.  Want to help but can't do it full time?
