I am writing to you not knowing what side of the political table you sit at hoping some of you will be voting for Barack Obama for a 2nd term. If not, so be it. I want you to know that I am asking you to Contribute $$ to the Democratic Party if you have not already and consider what our democracy will be move toward with a Romney/Ryan ticket. We have 28days before Nov.6, some of our fellow Americans participating in early voting as we speak. In some parts of the Country, Voter Suppression is rearing its ugly head and is beyond disheartening because voting is the voice of “we the people” is being stomped on by voter intimiation . I do not usually ask for money but given what Mr. Romney and Paul Ryan are offering equality in all its forms is at risk. So, I am formally asking for a Contribution to help the Democratic Party continue what we aspired and started in 2008 and was ignored by the Republican party who met the same night Barack was sworn in. Some in the Republican Party stated compromise was a dirty word while others turned toward race and fear in 2010; it was the turning point. The extreme right gained control and exacted out record numbers of filibustering as well as obstructing major legislation that would have shortened our recession.
If, you are so inclined to donate and vote for Barack Obama to fight against the unlimited money taking over politics at http://Barackobama.com
I support Obama because he represents the bold and drastic changes we need NOW action not the lip service we received from the last administration. The President of the United States knows and understands we need to pay attention to our debt deficit, our environment, that we need to narrow the gap between the haves and have none and we all know we need better health-care.
Last, our future is our children and that means better educational opportunities… but that is at risk with the Romney and Ryan plan or road to posterity
With nearly 26 million children and adults in the U.S. diagnosed with diabetes, there is no doubt it has touched your life in some way. Whether you are one of those 26 million or know someone who is, living in the presence of diabetes has a profound impact on daily life.
November is American Diabetes Month®—a time to come together and raise awareness of this ever-growing epidemic that is facing our nation.
This year, we want to shed light on the many people affected by diabetes and how each person’s daily life with diabetes tells a different story. It is time for you to add your own chapter.
Visit our Facebook page and share a personal image representing what “A Day in the Life of Diabetes” means to you. The image is a representation of how diabetes affects your daily life in some way. Every photo will contribute to a larger mosaic that embodies the message, “A Day in the Life of Diabetes.”
For every photo/image uploaded, CVS/pharmacy® will donate $1 to the Association, up to $25,000. CVS/pharmacy is a proud sponsor of the “A Day in the Life of Diabetes” campaign.

Last year a polar bear mother had to swim 687 kilometers to reach the sea ice for food. Her cub didn’t make it. Make an urgent gift today and help support our campaign to protect the polar bears and save the Arctic.
687 kilometers. That’s the longest a polar bear mother had to swim last year to reach the sea ice and hunt for food. Her cub did not survive the trip.
Things aren’t getting any easier. In fact, this year Arctic sea ice reached its lowest level in recorded history — smashing the 2007 record. Meaning that polar bear mothers had even farther to swim than last year. Now scientists are saying the Arctic Ocean could see ice free summers in the next decade if current trends continue. That means there won’t even be anywhere for polar bear mothers to swim to find food.
But for Big Oil the melting Arctic is not a warning sign. It’s an invitation. These companies hope to cash in by drilling for more of the oil that is causing the warming in the first place. We can’t let that happen. Help us protect polar bear mothers and their cubs by making an urgent gift today to support our campaign to declare the high Arctic a global sanctuary.
Our goal is to permanently ban oil drilling and industrial fishing in the Arctic and to establish the area around the North Pole as a ‘global commons.’ We’ve already mobilized over two million people from around the world to save the Arctic in the last six months. Momentum is on our side and the oil companies that want to drill are feeling the pressure.
Just a few weeks ago, Shell announced it was stopping its drilling program for this season after investing seven years and $5 billion. Thanks to Mother Nature, its own incompetence and the millions of people who have taken action to save the Arctic, its plans have been put on hold.
And while it was a moment to celebrate, the sea ice news makes the importance of our campaign all the more clear. Time is running out. Sea ice is melting at record rates and Shell will be back again next year.Carmen, we need your support to save the Arctic. We can’t do this without you. Make an urgent gift today and help support our campaign to protect the polar bears and save the Arctic.
Greenpeace doesn’t take a dime from corporations or governments. All we care about is doing what is necessary to save the Arctic. But our plans for the rest of this year and 2013 — along with the fate of the polar bears that call the Arctic home — all depend on your support.
I know our campaign may seem ambitious, but we’ve done it before. In 1991, a Greenpeace effort much like this one helped establish Antarctica as a world park and off limits to commercial extraction. With your support I know we can do it again and this time save the Arctic.
Polar bear mothers shouldn’t have to swim 687 kilometers for food.
For the Arctic,
Dan Howells Greenpeace USA Deputy Campaign Director
P.S. If the Arctic sea ice continues to melt and if the area around the North Pole isn’t put off limits to oil drilling, polar bears don’t stand a chance. Support our campaign to protect the polar bears and save the Arctic by making your most generous donation today.
I am writing to you not knowing what side of the political table you sit at hoping some of you will be voting for Barack Obama for a 2nd term. If not, so be it. I want you to know that I am fundraising for the Democratic Party . We have at least six weeks to go before Nov.6 there are fellow Americans participating in early voting as we speak. In some parts of the Country, Voter Suppression is rearing its ugly head. As a woman, mom, business owner and person of colour, I am beyond disheartened at what has transpired. I do not usually ask for money but given what Mr. Romney and Paul Ryan are offering. I have to step up and at least try to find people to stand up speak out and give Barack Obama a second term. I hope some of you feel this way as well. So, I am formally asking for a Contribution to help the Democratic Party continue what we aspired and started in 2008 and was ignored by the Republican party who met the same night Barack was sworn in. Some in the Republican Party stated compromise was a dirty word while others turned toward race and fear in 2010; it was the turning point. The extreme right gained control and exacted out record numbers of filibustering as well as obstructing major legislation that would have shortened our recession.
