Organizing For America Organizing For Obama

Organizing for America convened a major membership conference call last night to tout the President's economic recovery plan.  David Plouffe played host, urging people to get involved.  The message at least one person participating took away and e-mailed to his own list: "The voices of the people WILL be heard on this issue.  Doing nothing is not an option despite what you hear from the far right.  To do nothing is simply to root for failure.  If you know of anyone who has lost their job or home, do it for them.   Do it for yourself.   Get involved!  Together, we CAN make this Country work again."   

Earlier today, author and manager Plouffe e-mailed to The List a video compilation of the President's interviews with news anchors yesterday.

You can help make sure the American people have all the facts so they can support this crucial effort to boost our struggling economy.

The President is leading. Help is on the way.

Lend your voice by sharing this video with everyone you know. Then sign up to join thousands of people across the country who are organizing Economic Recovery House Meetings this weekend.
