(9,696 posts)2. INice to hear from Michael Moore
He made a lot of good points. Last time no one wanted to hear what he was saying and he was right. Hopefully this time they'll listen.

(13,883 posts)3. I like his idea about ballot proposals to get out the vote
He actually said it was Karl Roves idea on how to get Bush re elected when his popularity was down. Works for them it will work for us. Get good things on the local ballot proposals and people will get out and vote.. And while they are at it, vote Dem also..
I like his idea of November 2020 being the ORANGE CRUSH!! Vote him out!!!!

Michael Moore, the filmmaker, lambasted the front-runners. ''A vote for Gore is a vote for Bush,'' he said. ''If they both believe in the same thing, wouldn't you want the original than the copy? Wouldn't you want Bush? Sirloin or hamburger? Which would you go for?''
