PRESIDENT’S LISTENING TOUR IN PAHRUMP

obamaMoney PRESIDENT’S LISTENING TOUR IN PAHRUMP:
THURSDAY, JULY 16, 2009, 7:00PM – - – BOB RUUD COMMUNITY CENTER
Help plan the next step:

At these meetings, supporters are able to meet state staff members, hear about some of the lessons learned during the election, and offer thoughts on how best to organize in their communities.

Your ideas will then be used to write state-specific plans for Organizing for America in 2009 and beyond.

In many ways these small (and sometimes not so small) gatherings echo the same type of meetings that took place in diners and homes in the early days of the campaign, over two years ago. This time however, the focus is not on any one election, but on how to build support for the President’s agenda on a wide range of issues, and how to bring about the change that so many of you worked so hard for.

The campaign brought an unprecedented number of new voices into the process. Our goal now is to make sure those voices remain at the center of the debate as the President and Congress move forward to address the challenges we face.

Listening Tours have already kicked off in more than a dozen states.

Check the President’s website at www.BarackObama.com for more information on Organizing for America.

Healthcare Stories for America

medical Organizing for America has a website which is an absolute must for reading. I was informed of it by Vice-President Joe Biden’s e-mail. Biden wrote:

A few weeks ago, President Obama asked you to share your personal story about how the health care crisis has affected you and the ones you love. Hundreds of thousands of stories poured in from every corner of the country. The President and I have read through many of them ourselves — and now I’m encouraging you to do so as well.

And I, in turn, urge you to read those stories of Americans and their experiences with respect to healthcare in America. Let me leave you with one of those stories to give you an idea of what you will find there. William of Cabot, Arkansas wrote:

My daughter who at 20 years old and just started her third year of college was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She had to drop out of college for the time as she needed to go through surgery. As soon as she left school she was told that she could no longer be on my insurance policy and her coverage was dropped. This is just when she needed the coverage. She passed away within three years but it was horrible and nobody cared. My view of life and society has forever been changed.
