Thread Name: BS: Dean Quits ?
Subject: RE: BS: Dean Quits ?
There is a petition online of "a formal complaint to the Democratic National Committee and the Democratic Party for the violation of the Charter of the Democratic Party by officers and staff of the Democratic Party and the Democratic National Committee."

If you watched, read, or listened to enough of the statements coming out of the DNC and DLC during this primary campaign, you would have realized that Dean was being attacked from the party leaders who were blatantly hostile to Dean, a fellow Democrat. The reason? Dean's power, the MONEY, was coming from small donor contributions, not from sources the DLC had established with connections. That kind of power scared them, the power of hundreds of thousands of voters in grassroots America behind a Governor who was not a party "insider".

To view and/or sign the petition, go here. Please pass the link along to others by email and posting to other forums and blogs.

Go DEAN and his policies for renewable energy, reduction of domestic violence and child abuse, basic health care coverage for every American, reform of political contributions, job creation, worker rights protection, environmental standards, and a proven record of success in Vermont over 11 years as Governor. He is still my man. I'm behind his organization all the way. I hope he becomes Secretary of Health and Human Services - Alice
